Recently I thought of upgrading from my G203 Prodigy as the mouse feet have worn out pretty badly and it's a bit too small for my hand dimensions. I wanted to get the G403 Prodigy but cause the borders of the country where I live are closed and it's out of stock in all stores/websites I checked I can't get it.
I was thinking of getting the Endgame Gear XM1 as it's pretty affordable at 60€ and should fit my hand dimensions pretty well.
If anyone has been using it for a while I was wondering if they could share their experiences with it?
Alternatively feel free to recommend me a mouse at around the 70€ price range (preferably something without holes)
Does anyone here use Endgame Gear XM1?

i tried it, it worked but i wasn't a fan of the shape so I didn't stick with it. from the research I did it seems like a quality product if that's what you're wondering. it's definitely not some walmart mouse. that being said if you use a g203 and are interested in a ergo mouse idk why you'd consider another finger tip mouse. find the shape you want first. if it's an ergo like the g403 then i'd recommend looking into the g-wolves skoll or an ec2. if you wan fingertip the xm1 should be fine or you could get a g305 and have a wireless lighter version of your mouse.

Yeah I'm not really looking to buy an ergo mouse specifically, just something that would fit my hand size well as I have relatively large hands and something with good build quality that will potentially last as I've heard from my friends that the mice with holes have pretty bad build quality (my friend's glorious model O broke after about 2-3 months and another friend's coolermaster mm710 broke in a month or so as well) and yeah I use fingertip grip. Ty very much for your answer!

I have a g203 with worn feet too and ordered 10€ replacement teflon parts, so there are options if you do not want to throw the mouse away. Do not order ceramic ones with it they are too thick for the sensor

shinso what's your opinion on the XM1
I have been using it for the past month (I upgraded to it from a poorly chosen g603 wireless that hurt my wrist). Even tho the mouse feels maybe a bit small in my hand (I have 20cm in length and 10-11cm in width), I can grip it pretty well with claw grip (even when my hand sweats).
The feet really glide (I have a cloth pad), the cord is light and flexible (of course it's not the same as wireless, but with a bungee/or at least if the cord doesn't slide of the table you should be good to go - I use some makeshift bungees on the back of my monitor so the cable doesn't go off my table). Something similar to these ones
As a final point, the weight - moving from a 99g (I used a AAA battery and tin foil to reduce the weight as much as possible) g603 to a 70g mouse, it really felt a lot better in game. I would suggest to go for a lightweight mouse.
PS: The g305 with one AAA lithium battery and some tin foil/battery adapter would get to around 83g (the AAA battery should be around 8g compared to a duracell standard AA battery which is 24g). So, if 83-85g is lightweight enough to you, it could be a better option, since wireless imo provides a better feeling.

Cubenityif you are used to g203, maybe try g305? once you go wireless, you never go back
As I said the size and shape of the mouse don't fit me as well since I have 19*9cm hands (or so) so it's a bit too small for me (it's still OK as I fingertip grip, but I'd rather have something a bit bigger).

I'm most likely gonna sell the mouse to one of my classmates, but ty for the recommendation!

I'm most likely gonna just go for the EGXM1. It should fit my hand size better + it's also cheaper and lighter than the G305. Personally I never really found cables that impactful on my gameplay, and based off of what you said the XM1 cable is very good, so I'm sure it will be fine. Ty for the feedback!

Been using it for the past month or so, quality mouse. In terms of similar shapes, I've tried both the Logitech G Pro Wireless and Zowie S1 and ended up preferring the Endgame XM1. The shape is simple and unobtrusive, it's very light, and the new version comes with a stock paracord (make sure you get the right one). It really is a great value and one of the best mice to come along in a while imo, I would recommend giving it a try.

Yes, this, make sure to get the updated version of the mouse, the original model from 8-9 months ago had worse feet, classic rubber cable and worse side buttons.
