FAQ

Which gaming mouse for which hand size?

Small to medium hands (under 19cm) suit compact formats (Razer DeathAdder Mini, Endgame Gear XM1r). Large hands prefer full-size models (Logitech G502, SteelSeries Rival 600). Measure your hand from palm to pinky to choose the right size.

What DPI for a gaming mouse?

DPI is not a quality criterion: more DPI doesn't mean a more precise mouse. In FPS, most professional players play at 400–1600 DPI. What really matters: optical sensor quality (PixArt 3395 or Razer Focus Pro are benchmarks), consistency, and absence of smoothing.
