I tried many gaming and regular mice, but very few allowed me to....
• rest my hand without my fingers pressing the buttons accidentally
• had the browser back/forward buttons in place that was comfortable, and didn't press them accidentally
• use a resting palm to navigate, not fingertips or claw
• not spend an exorbitant amount of money
• not constantly replace batteries, or worry if a distracting power warning, or signal aberration is about to interfere with my gaming in a clutch spot.
• have a mouse wheel with a medium amount of resistance, but also offers tactile granularity (it clicks regularly, and consistently, for smooth, reliable scrolling. Not much jerking)
This contour style seems to be a throwback, and largely going out of style. This is a shame, but this thumb contour style used to dominate the market, from what I remember. I will likely buy a replacement of this same mouse as soon as my current one shows signs of wear and tear -- but one year in, and it's still wonderful.
