Hi guys I just recently enter into buying a new mouse, this happens when I found this old Microsoft mouse:

I just love the way my hands feel on it, but it's broken, now I bought a nixeus revel:

I think the Nixeus mouse will be the same in shape as the Microsoft but I don't sure and also I don't even know if I'm a crawl palm or fingerprint player, I'm currently using this cheap 5$ mouse:

Since today I'm using it like this
https://prnt.sc/s7a56m

I feel more comfortable in this way, I got the middle finger into the scroll the index on the left click and the ring finger on the right-click, I'm confused as how I should use the new mouse and if I would be able to sue it as I'm using this one (with 3 fingers)

2nd mouse looks similar shape to the Explorer (the MS mouse)

I have been using steelseries mice as they have a similar shape to the one you showed (just not as cheap) - https://steelseries.com/gaming-mice/rival-600

working out what type of user you are seems to be half the fight. I have used too many mice in the last 20 years, and have gone back to a shape similar to the MS mouse.

unless you can go to shop and play with mice, its really hard to tell if you will like them unless its just a refresh of a model you have used already. I have a few mice I bought and just didn't like.
I can't do that I will have just to buy them and then decided if I like it or nah, I was think in the g403 but it has a weird shape so I just went with the nixeus
