Finding the Deathadder a bit bulky

DublinDude · 14 Mar 2013 at 09:54

Hi all,

A few months ago I went for the Razer Deathadder (Black Edition). It is a good mouse and it looks great. However, I am beginning to think its a bit bulky for my hand. Maybe it is the way I am holding it or something.

I am looking at the Corsair M65 now as an alternative but I am not certain if it is any smaller or not. Anybody have any recommendations who may have experience with these mice?

I found the Deathadder quite bulky, possibly more ideal for the palm grippers. The G400 is a little easier to grip and pickup I find.

Agree with this, I'm not a huge fan of the Razer as there peripherals are quite large!

The M65 is definately a better shape, I'm guessing you're a claw grip kinder guy?

Try something a little smaller/nimble for definite.

I'd recommend -

Corsair M65
Logitech G400
Cyborg RAT series [Rat 3

]
Roccat Kone [May have scrolling issues though]

Never been a big fan of the Razer mice, they just don't fit right in my hand. I've always been a Logitech user [MX510/MX518/G5] but wasn't sure about their latest mice like the G9 and the G500 so decided on the SS Sensei. It's okay but took some getting used the the height and ambidextrous shape and the coating has started to flake away which is a bit annoying, so I think I will go back to the Logitech next time round - might try the G400 though it's slightly lower quality without the omron switches I believe.

The M65 appeals to me although the black one is not in stock here at the moment. I had the first incarnation of the Kone and it was ok but didn't really last. The Rat 3 is bit scary looking lol.
