Zowie makes really quality mice. If you don't mind an ambidextrous feel, the FK varients (FK, FK1, FK2) are really good. If you're looking for a mouse with that ergonomic right-handed feel, the EC- series mice (EC Evo and EC-A) are right up your alley.

I believe the Logitech G400s would be another option for similar shape as well.

But yeah, can't beat Zowie mice.

I believe the [url=http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BCEK2LA/ref=psdc_11036491_t3_B00RH6R7C4?tag=teamfortresst-20]Logitech G400s[/url] would be another option for similar shape as well.

I still have yet to find a mouse that I like more than the DeathAdder. Every PC in my house has one, and I even bought one for my desk at work.

If you dont mind relatively heavy mice the G400s is solid. Had it for like 2/3 years. If you like the lighter mice then Zowie.

if you have a good chunk of dosh, you should really consider a Mionix

Ive been using the NAOS 7000 (free sargas 3200 mousepad when you get one right now) for a long while now its only been one of the best mice Ive ever used, Mionix's approach of Quality over anything else is reassuring, as well as the fact that they tell you everything about, they give you specs, NOT buzzwords, which is something Ive found great. If youre not a fan of the ergonomic shape, they also released the Castor which Ive also been hearing great reviews about. Both of these are meant of Right handers.

However if you are a lefty check out the Avior 7000 dont buy the 8200 series though, those are laser.

Best of luck on your search!

Like most people have recommended, the g400s is a pretty solid pick for a similar shape. I've been using this mouse for two years and have had zero complaints with it. But there are tons of other mice as well. Like the g303, It has one of the best sensors for a gaming mouse if you can get used to its shape as I hear It's pretty weird. But since you want a similar shape the ec-a series of mice by zowie are pretty solid as well, I hear the EC2-a is a good choice out of the bunch as well as it has a pretty similar shape to the deathadder and a really good sensor.

Good luck in finding a mouse!

Edit: the steelseries rival 100 just recently came out too! it apparently is similar to the g303 sensor wise without the hard to get used too shape. it looks pretty good and It's only 40 dollars. check it out: https://steelseries.com/gaming-mice/rival-100

Have you ever had any problems with Zowie at all?

#13 A steelseries product with that price? What kind of sorcery it this?

Edit: Thanks everyone for your help! Ill most likely get the Zowie EC1-A

The steelseries rival is nice choice for big hands, and I've been using mine heavily since the day it came out. ~1.5 yr?

Take your pick from the current Mionix lineup.
My old Naos 5000 had excellent build quality and lasted me longer than any other mouse i have owned.
The following use the flawless 3310 sensor.

I've had a razer mamba, logitech g400 and zowie fk1. Personally I think zowie is by far the best in terms of quality for the price.

Zowie mice are decent. I'm using a ZA11 right now, and it works just fine. However, it does use blue Huano switches, which you may or may not find to be an issue since they require a slight bit more force to actuate than many Omron switches. Also, while the mouse is decently built, I wouldn't call it super-sturdy or "premium feeling." But if your grip works with any of their mice and you prefer your mice to be slightly lighter, then they are not a bad choice at all, especially since their newer series of mice use a pretty good sensor. If you can find one in the ~$40 range, I'd definitely pick one up.

The coating on my AM peeled worse than anny other mouse i have owned and the mouse buttons where so stiff they cramped my hand. My EC1 eVo CL had the worst mouse wheel i have ever had on a gaming mouse (don't know why they changed it from the AM).

I did however LOVE the shape and weight and the sensor was the best available at the time. Zowie products are good but not without their flaws.

hmm how long did you have yours? I've had my zowie am for over a year and it hasn't peeled at all and the mouse buttons are still as good as when I first got it.

Bought a Zowie EC1-A Monday after my deathadder broke at GXL.
I would agree with everyone else here, it's a very good mouse.

A little under a year. The coating peeled so badly it turned into a glossy mouse.

I bought a logitech g303 a couple months ago and though most people don't like, in my opinion, it's great.

It has a weird shape which a lot of people complain about, but it's good for my small baby hands.
