The right size for you: the 60% rule

How large is a mouse exactly? It's often difficult to see on a photo. That's why we thought of the thumb rule below.

Choose a mouse that takes up more than half of the surface of the dimensions of your hand. You can find the dimensions of the mouse under the specifications.

Your hands are often 2 times longer from your wrist to the tip of your middle finger than that it's wide from your little finger to the knuckle of your thumb. The closer the length and width a mouse come to 60% of the length and width of your hands, the more likely it is that the mouse feels comfortable in your hand.

It's good for the first year, then it falls apart.

Many settings (with iCue software)
Fits nicely in the hand
Accurate
Rubber comes off within 1 year!

The mouse is basically fine, good even. Nice grip, many setting options (if you use iCue) and plenty of connection options (wired, Bluetooth and via dongle). Slipstream (connecting multiple devices to 1 dongle) works well, the mouse is accurate and the body feels solid.

I only have two criticisms with this mouse:

The scroll wheel feels a bit weak and has already given up the ghost on one of my mice (it was then replaced).
The rubber on the part where your palm rests comes loose within a year (I have to replace it for the 3rd time now!). I can't really tell whether the rubber becomes soft after a lot of use (whether or not due to sweat) or whether the adhesive layer underneath comes loose, but I have already had to have this mouse replaced three times within the first year (kudos to Coolblue by the way for how quickly that was arranged every time). I am now on my 4th replacement in less than 3.5 years, you would expect a mouse advertised as a "gaming mouse" to be sturdy enough to survive the first year.

In short: I strongly recommend this mouse. The options and functions you get for the price are very nice and the mouse seems fantastic at first glance, but for the price/quality you have to assume that it can be used for about one year, and I simply don't think so worth.

Top thing

Lots of buttons
Easy to configure
Resting platform for your thumb
Battery life is about 20 hours, could be better

I doubted for a long time between Logitech or this mouse. Ultimately glad I went for this. Has the old Logitech experience when they still designed fine and good mice there.

Never another

The ergonomic design. This mouse fits perfectly in your hand and is gentle on the wrist
Unprecedented precision partly due to the masses
Wireless charging is very easy

This wireless gaming mouse has it all. Great ease of use due to the many options and ergonomically sound.
