As far as it seems, it looks much "shorter" than the MX518, like you don't have to elevate your palm as much as with the other mouse .. thus making it comfortable. | ||

It's one of the bigger mice on the market, and the mousewheel's position require you to have long fingers. I have medium sized hands and found the mouse way too big, currently using a G9x Razer salmosa and Roccat Kova would be good picks I guess, but genuinely small mice aren't too good if you're a pure palm grip kind of guy. I think I have even smaller hands than OP and I palm grip a Mx518 just fine O_o... plays Osu! great. | ||

Most people already know that joke. I fixed it to topic-relevance already.  | ||

A lot of people are recommending this, I have medium size hands and the mx518 felt to me as the most absurdly hulk-like peripheral of any sort ever. I use an LMO now and really like it. I guess one issue is I use finger tip grip. My understanding is these are good for small hands, and I would hazard getting one if my LMO broke, except I don't know how except fly to KOR :/ | ||

my hand is rather small too 19 cm long and middlefinger is about 8 cm today I did some hours of research of what should fit me better claw or palm grip and so on. Now I tested the razer abyssus and razer deathadder right in the shop and really cant understand, how small handed ppl say the deathadder should be the way to go. I had real problems with the backwards movement, when the deathadder hit my palm over and over, so my mousemovement stopped. on the other hand I had the chance to test the kinzu, too. it feels pretty equal to the abyssus. I go a step further and would say, the movement seems a little bit more direct than with the abyssus. They are around the same price, same spec and for smaller hands with a claw grip or anything next to claw grips. Are there TL reader out here that had the chance to play SCII with both of those mice (kinzu and abyssus)? I really would love a final hint, what mouse becomes the stronger friend over time. | ||

Zowie Mico Really cheap, enough dpi (1600 max.), small (!). But it has only 3 buttons. | ||

Its all about a mouse, that wont get blocked by my palm (when moving downside), like the deathadder did. 3 buttons is ok with me. Abyssus and Kinzu have 3 buttons, too. Did anyone try out both? Kinzu AND Abyssus? And can give some advice? | ||

The Kinzu has some positive acceleration and the Abyssus tends to jitter on quite a few mousepads, but with the right mousepad its close to perfect. Hmm, mx518 could be too big and may annoy due permanent enabled prediction. Does the shape of the Logitech g9x fit your hands? Or maybe a classic WMO 1.1a / Intelli 1.1a? @500hz theyre still good. The Xai is also pretty usable. (slight accel issues) | ||

have to correct me here. I'm a fingertip grip user. I got this whole grip thing a bit wrong before. I didnt tested the mx518, g9x or intelli mouse yet. I may check them out before ordering. Some may be interessted in a short Sidewinder X8 Review from a "smaller hand point of view": Right now I use a sidewinder x8 (over 1 year now) Some may wonder: "wtf why is he switching from a 1ms wireless 70$ mouse back to a half priced and much older model." Well in my case I really love all features of the x8. But since I started pushing myself in scII a bit more, I figured, that I get my gear in the way. The x8 is a bit too huge and heavy for me, denying many fast and precise movements. I love huge mice. its great for all-day computer works. you can be really lazy with your hand and lying it down on your mouse. But when I hit an average of 120 apm, I really feel that the heavy weight leads to LONG ways of speeding down the X8, so I often get trouble with overrunning my target location and need to move back afterwards.. As well as the big size lets me constantly hit my palm, what makes the cursor shaking too.. After reading a lot, as I already mentioned, it come down to the conclusion, that I should go for Abyssus or Kinzu. Any more comments on those both mice are still very appreciated. :-) | ||
