I went crazy for a few weeks trying to find a suitable replacement mouse for my recently retired Microsoft Intellimouse Pro. I tried a LOT of different mice looking for something that was similar to that mouse, so a bit on the heavier, larger side and with an ergonomic shape. After trying to satisfy myself with a Zowie EC-1 that gave me a rash and an Fantechs XD5 that was close enough but just too small, I had narrowed it down to the Pwnage Ultra Custom Ergo and the EndGame Gear XM1r. At first, it seemed like an incredibly close match, but was leaning towards the Custom Ergo. I really liked the ergonomic shape of the Custom Ergo and I appreciated the approach to customization with swappable plates, customizable weight options and varying feet/glide sizes. Thing is, when I tried the XM1r, everything I thought I wanted went right out the window. Here was this smaller, lighter symmetrical mouse that felt SUPER comfortable and snappy. I was almost shocked with how much I liked the shape and feel of the mouse even though I had thought for so long that I could only enjoy an ergonomic mouse.There's something about this one that even though it's symmetrical, it still has a comfortable curve to it that lets you rest your ring and pinky finger. It also manages to be smaller and lighter than my Intellimouse while still feeling like it has weight (and without using annoying honeycomb holes to make it lighter). The biggest thing to get used to out of the box was the lighter actuation force required to activate the right click. My hand twitches from time-to-time, so I had a bit of a problem with accidentally right clicking when I didn't mean to. I was able to learn around this though and I now rest my hand a bit differently to compensate in a way that feels still absolutely natural.Another thing I very much appreciate is the driver-less configuration. Of course, you can still download a program from EndGame Gear's website (and Discord) to adjust DPI presets and install firmware updates, but it's not absolutely necessary. If you are comfortable with 400, 800, 1600 or 3200 dpi, you will be absolutely fine never downloading a single thing. One thing I do wish about the software though is that the mouse could save your custom presets internally, so if you unplugged it and plugged it into something else you could maintain the custom DPI you set. I understand why it doesn't work that way, but it would be a nice thing to see with future updates or revisions to the lineup.People may criticize the lack of RGB and other flashy features, but I think the design is nice and understated. I appreciate a product that can still look and feel great without having all of the bells and whistles slapped onto it just to appease the general crowd. I did want to get the see-thru model when I was purchasing mine, but it was in stock for $10 more so I settled on the normal black instead. It's still super nice and feels great either way, so I am fine with my choice.Absolutely recommended to lovers of symmetrical mice and even to Intellimouse/ergo die-hards! You might be just like me and find something that absolutely subverts your expectations in a really pleasant way.

The perfect wired mouse, still usable even by todays standerds, this thing is built so well.

I upgraded from a G203 that started double-clicking after just two months, other than that, the mouse felt fantastic. I really appreciate the XM1r's build quality, simple software, and packaging. The mouse wheel feels great, and I love the cable. However, there's one issue for me: it feels uncomfortable. As a palm grip user, the size of the mouse feels too large, and the clicks are a bit too stiff. I noticed this almost immediately. It's a shame I had to return it because I can tell the build quality and precision are top-notch.
