9 Best Gaming Mice for Big Hands 2023 [Wired + Wireless]

Have you ever thought, “Man, my gaming experience would be so much better if my hands were a little smaller”? If you are wondering what is the best gaming mouse for big hands, then we are here to help you out. After thorough research, we have carefully selected the 9 best gaming mice for big hands.

Finding a suitable, comfortable gaming mouse can often take gamers a long time. This is especially true for gamers with big hands who may find regular gaming mice cramped and uncomfortable to use. For prolonged gaming sessions, the mouse’s dimensions need to match the player’s hand and their particular grip style to have the best gaming experience. 

Suffice to say, playing with a well-fitting gaming mouse does make a huge difference gameplay-wise, especially in competitive esports titles. It’s unfortunate, then, that many gamers often ignore the weight and dimensions of the mouse in favor of overall specs and features. However, you don’t have to compromise on comfort to have a great gaming mouse.

Does a Mouse Fitting Your Hand Matter?

Absolutely! A mouse’s ergonomics are just as important as its specs and features, if not more so. A mouse that doesn’t properly fit your hand may cause cramps in your hand and wrist—and muscle fatigue in your fingers from awkwardly gripping the mouse for prolonged periods. 

What is Considered a Large Hand for a Mouse?

On average, the length of an adult male’s hand is 7.6 inches, while the breadth is 3.5 inches. A hand with a larger length, breadth, or both is considered ‘large’ by definition. For reference, a hand’s length is measured from the tip of the longest finger to the bottom of the palm, while breadth is measured across the widest area of the palm. The mice we have reviewed here were specifically chosen for large hand sizes. 

How Should a Gaming Mouse Fit Your Hand?

  • Fingers: Your fingers should be able to reach the left/right mouse buttons and scroll wheel without stretching or flexing. 
  • Thumb: Your thumb should be able to rest on either the table/mousepad or the thumb rest on the mouse itself—provided there’s one. 
  • Pinky finger: Your pinky finger shouldn’t have to stretch to reach the side of the mouse opposite to your thumb. 
  • Palm: The front of your palm should be supported by the mouse itself. The back of the palm and the upper wrist should be able to rest on the table comfortably.

Best Gaming Mouses for Big Hands [2022 Review!]

Not all mice are designed equally, and it can be fairly difficult to find the best mouse for big hands. Let’s do all the legwork for you. 

For this blog, we scoured the web, including multiple big hands gaming mouse Reddit threads, to shortlist over two dozen gaming mice based on popularity votes. Then we put those devices through their paces and tested them under various gaming and non-gaming scenarios.

After countless hours of rigorous testing, we shortlisted the 9 best gaming mice best suited to people with big hands. 

Our Testing Methodology

Our number one priority was comfort for people with big hands. Hence, we gathered everyone in our team to find testers with above-average-sized hands to offer our readers a truly first-hand perspective–no pun intended. 

The testing process was divided into 3 phases:

  1. We tested the performance and comfort of the mice in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive—colloquially known as CS: GO and Fortnite. Being fast-paced esport titles, both games require lots of wrist flicking and rapid flexing of thumb and fingers. 
  2. Next, we ran the mice through a series of mini-tests to evaluate their technical performance. We tested the sensitivity of their optical sensors, wireless connectivity (where applicable), DPI levels, tracking speed, input latency, polling rate, angle snapping, macros, and the overall customizability of the hardware, 
  3. Finally, we evaluated each mouse’s physical and visual aspects, such as RGB lighting effects, thumb rests, side grips, scroll wheel, build quality, adjustable weights, the number of auxiliary buttons, and their overall ‘click’ feel.

Logitech G Pro – Best Large Hand Gaming Mouse Overall

The legendary Logitech G Pro is, without a doubt, the best mouse we tested, and for good reasons. This is a feature-packed wireless mouse that weighs just 80g, has the fantastic Hero 25K sensor with a 25,600 DPI, 400 IPS tracking, and lastly, there are 7 programmable buttons. 

The first thing we noticed right off the bat is its weight, or the lack of it. It’s extremely lightweight at just 80g. While the Razer Viper Mini in our test is even lighter than the G Pro, that mouse is wired with no internal battery or other wireless components. It’s amazing just how much performance Logitech has managed to cram in this compact, featherweight mouse. 

Speaking of performance, the G Pro has the cutting-edge Hero 25K sensor with a maximum DPI of 25,600, along with 400 IPS accuracy. None of our testers had any qualms regarding its tracking accuracy or performance. No surprise then that G Pro is the ‘weapon of choice’ of several famous esports teams.

Generally speaking, wireless mice tend to suffer from latency issues. Yet somehow, the G Pro’s input latency is comparable to a wired mouse. We compared the G Pro with the wired Logitech G502 Hero—another mouse with the same Hero 25K sensor—back-to-back in CS: GO and literally couldn’t notice any discernible input delay. Overall, very impressive. 

The G Pro has 8 programmable buttons, all with a nice, tactile feel. The scroll wheel is equally as good. However, the G Pro lacks its siblings ‘infinity’ scroll, namely the G502 and G903. It’s a minor complaint, but there shouldn’t be any at this price point.

Razer DeathAdder V2 – Best Comfortable Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

For gamers primarily looking for comfort, it doesn’t get much better than Razer DeathAdder V2. For starters, DeathAdder V2 has the Razer Focus+ 20K optical sensor, good for 20,000 DPI and 650 IPS tracking. It’s also the third lightest mouse in our test, weighing in at just 82g, i.e., just 2g heavier than the Logitech G Pro.

The highlight is definitely the Razer Focus+ 20K optical sensor. While not quite up to par with Logitech’s Hero 25K, it gets very close in terms of DPI while offering superior tracking speed (650 vs. 400 IPS). However, our testers didn’t notice any particular advantages—or perhaps disadvantages—with the Focus+ 20K over Logitech’s Hero 25K sensor. They both are equally good.

As for the buttons and other features, the mouse has 8 buttons in total, all of them programmable. Razer chose to use optical mouse switches—instead of a spring mechanism—with a response time of only 0.2ms. However, our testers had mixed feelings about the optical switches. Some liked them, while others noted the reduced tactile feel and ‘clicky’ sound we all come to expect from a gaming mouse.

Lastly, the Razer logo, as well as the scroll wheel, have RGB lights—compatible with Razer Chroma RGB. With Razer Synapse 3 software, you can set the light rhythm, change colors, and also enable in-game lighting effects. The lights themselves are rather basic, however, and only get moderately bright. If it’s RGB you’re after, then consider Razer Basilisk V3 Pro instead, another mouse we have covered in this review.

Logitech G502 Hero – Best Customizable Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

There’s a very good reason why this mouse is one of the most popular gaming mice right now. Announced all the way back in 2014, it’s still selling strong, a testament to its capabilities and prowess. Of course, Logitech has made gradual changes over the years to keep it fresh. 

The newest iteration of the G502 comes with the Hero 25K gaming sensor—the same as Logitech G Pro—which is good for up to 25,600 DPI. Other features include 11 programmable buttons, a scroll wheel with support for infinite scroll, RGB lights (LightSync compatible), 400 IPS tracking speed, and a 1000Hz polling rate. Lastly, the mouse has adjustable weights.

As is the case with Logitech G Pro, the G502’s gaming performance is fantastic, all thanks to the Hero 25K gaming sensor. Our testers were very pleased with the gaming performance of this mouse. The G502 is, without a doubt, one of the best wired gaming mice available in the market right now. 

Unfortunately, the G502 is also one of the heaviest mice we tested, weighing in at 121g, bone stock. Oddly enough, the mouse has customizable weights, and you can bring that heft up to 140g. Some of our testers preferred the heavyweight nature of the G502, while others complained about it. Overall, we believe it would’ve been better if the mouse had a lower overall “dry weight”.

Logitech G502 Lightspeed – Best Wireless Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

Looking for a Logitech G502 Hero, albeit with wireless connectivity? Logitech has the answer in the guise of G502 Lightspeed. Everything’s here: The remarkable Hero 25K sensor, the iconic G502 look, 11 programmable buttons with the familiar tactile spring switches, infinite scroll-wheel, RGB lights, and above all, full customizability via Logitech G Hub. However, G502 Lightspeed is more than just a rehashed G502 Hero with wireless circuitry stuffed inside.

For starters, it’s lighter at 114g, compared to 121g for the G502 Hero. Bear in mind that this mouse has an internal battery as well as a wireless radio, which should ‘add’ weight to the mouse, not make it lighter! Logitech achieved this by using a clever thin-wall endoskeleton design to reduce weight while maintaining stiffness, as well as lighter components overall. For example, the scroll wheel is hollowed out in order to save a few grams. 

But despite the aggressive weight shedding, the mouse is still fairly heavy at 114g. Frankly, we could barely notice the reduced weight as most of our testers were skeptical about its weight savings compared to its wired sibling, the G502 Hero. Having said that, it’s every bit as good as the G502 Hero in terms of gaming performance, despite the wireless connectivity.

Logitech MX Master 3S – Best Gaming Mouse for Wide Hands

For gamers with wide hands who happen to own both a PC and a laptop or a Mac, it doesn’t get much better than Logitech MX Master 3S. This is a great multipurpose mouse that can be connected simultaneously with up to three devices via either Bluetooth or Logitech’s universal Bolt Receivers.

MX Master 3S comes equipped with Darkfield 8000 laser sensor, good for up to 8,000 DPI. There are 7 programmable buttons in total, and the scroll wheel has a Smart Shift feature which uses an electromagnetic mechanism for infinite scrolling. Other features include a unique gesture button on the thumb rest, which can be used to assign different macros. And lastly, there’s a USB-C charging port at the front of the mouse that supports fast charging. 

For seamless connectivity, there’s a switch located at the bottom of the mouse, which you can use to select up to three different devices. The mouse can be easily connected with Windows or Mac laptops—as well as iPads—via Bluetooth. You can connect two devices right off the bat with Bluetooth, as well as the included USB dongle. An additional device can be connected via Logitech Bolt Receiver (not included with the mouse). 

For our tests, we paired the mouse simultaneously with our Windows PC via USB receiver and a MacBook Air M1 via Bluetooth. Overall, the mouse performed admirably. However, our testers were unimpressed by its gaming performance. As it turns out, the mouse has a very limited polling rate of just 125 Hz, along with a tracking rate of just 30 IPS. Good enough for casual gaming but unsuitable for competitive esports shooters.

  • Magspeed scrolling: A computer mouse with remarkable speed, precision, and near silence - MagSpeed scrolling is 90% faster (3), 87% more precise (4), and ultra quiet

Razer Basilisk V3 – Best RGB Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

Razer Basilisk V3 is the perfect choice for the RGB enthusiasts among us. At the heart of the mouse is the iconic and improved Razer Focus+ 26K sensor with a 26,000 DPI. There are up to 11 programmable buttons, a great scroll-wheel with ‘hyperscroll’ (same as Logitech’s “Infinite Scroll”), eleven individual RGB zones offering support for Razer Chroma RGB, and the ultra-lightweight SpeedFlex braided cable. 

The Focus 26K+ optical sensor is fantastic. It’s one of the best in the business. Our testers felt that it’s only slightly behind Logitech’s Hero 25K sensor, which is by no means a small feat. However, both sensors are especially fine-tuned for gaming and—frankly—far exceed the capabilities of 99.99% of gamers out there. Needless to say, we were very pleased with the Focus 26K+. 

The programmable buttons use Razer’s now signature optical switches with a very quick response time. Per Razer claims, a click can be registered in just around 2ms. However, we couldn’t notice any discernable difference—probably because we aren’t superhumans! What we did notice, however, is the slightly muffled click sound and feel. The buttons just aren’t as clicky as ‘traditional’ (so to speak) spring switches. 

Lastly, this mouse is all about RGB. As mentioned, there are 11 programmable RGB zones located at the bottom of the mouse. You can either set your own colors and rhythms or use game-responsive lighting effects via Razer Chroma RGB. For this purpose, you’ll have to install Razer Synapse software. Fortunately, the software is a joy to use, with no clutter, ads, or annoying pop-ups. It just plain works without getting in your way.

  • 10 plus 1 Programmable Buttons: Assign all your macros and secondary functions across 11 programmable buttons — including its acclaimed multi-function trigger — to execute essential actions like push-to-talk, ping, and more

  • Razer Optical Mouse Switches Gen - 2: With zero unintended misclicks you can count on these switches to provide crisp, responsive execution at a blistering 0.2m s actuation speed for up to 70 million clicks

SteelSeries Rival 3 – Best Budget Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

Let’s face it: Most mice in our test aren’t exactly cheap. The bitter truth is that performance generally comes at a cost. And while everyone desires performance, not everyone can afford it. However, sometimes there are certain budget products that come so close to the premium tier and check so many boxes for so little that you feel compelled to overlook some of their flaws. SteelSeries Rival 3 is one such tempting buy. 

Let’s get the basic specs out of the way first: SteelSeries Rival 3 has an optical sensor with a DPI of 8,000, a 1,000Hz polling rate, 6 programmable buttons, and lastly, a non-braided rubber cable. Nothing groundbreaking compared to what we have already seen. Surprisingly enough, the mouse has an RGB logo, as well as a light strip at the bottom. Something we didn’t expect to find on a budget mouse!

The mouse has SteelSeries’ TrueMove Core optical sensor. While it’s limited to just 8,000 DPI, we were really impressed by its performance. The polling rate is good at 1000 Hz, and the overall tracking is also surprisingly decent at 400 IPS. While the 8,000 DPI is less than half of something like Logitech G Pro or Razer Basilisk V3, it’s still more than plenty for casual gamers. Overall, this is a great mouse for gaming, despite the specs sheet suggesting otherwise.

The buttons have a very nice, tactile feel to them; however, they aren’t nearly as loud as we would’ve liked. However, the company claims that each button is good for up to 60M clicks—about 10-20M more than most mice in our test—which is a good tradeoff. The buttons are also programmable via the SteelSeries Engine utility. The same goes for the RGB logo, as well as the light strip at the bottom. Overall, this is a feature-rich mouse, despite its budget-oriented price tag.

9.4
SteelSeries Rival 3 Wireless Gaming Mouse
  • Year-long battery life for over 400 plus hours of uninterrupted use with revolutionary power-efficient technology
  • Optimized for ultra-low latency wired-like performance with the flexibility of two types of connectivity: 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth
  • Multi-purpose functionality perfect for switching between gaming, school, work, travel, limited USB space, and more

Razer Viper Mini – Best Lightweight Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

As you may have noticed by now, most mice in our test tip the scale at well over 80 grams, some going well beyond 100g. But the thing is, not everyone prefers a heavyweight mouse. Hence, we had to include a lightweight mouse in our test. And after consideration and testing, we chose Razer Viper Mini to be the best lightweight gaming mouse currently available in the market.

The Razer Viper Mini weighs just 61g, which is less than half of Logitech’s MX Master 3S in our test, for example. The mouse has an unspecified 8,500 DPI sensor, braided ‘SpeedFlex’ cable, 6 programmable buttons, and offers RGB effects with a light strip at the bottom. 

In terms of gaming, the mouse’s 8,500 DPI gaming sensor doesn’t disappoint. In CS: GO, for example, our Viper Mini totting testers had no trouble keeping up with their rivals equipped with Logitech G Pro and G502. It’s surprisingly decent for an unnamed sensor. 

The 6 programmable buttons, as well as the RGB lights, are directly configurable via the Razer Synapse 3 software. As is the case with other Razer mice in this test, this mouse uses optical switches. And as we have established previously, our testers prefer the superior tactile feel and louder click of spring loading switches. However, it all depends on one’s personal preference.

  • Lightest, Zero-Compromise Miniature Mouse: 10% Smaller Than the Viper and lighter at 61g, with a 8500 DPI optical sensor befitting the most serious gamers without the need for drilling holes in the chassis like competitor mice
  • Faster Than Traditional Mechanical Switches: Razer optical mouse switches uses light beam-based actuation, registering button presses at the speed of light for absolute control
  • Customizable Chroma RGB Color Profiles & Underglow: Includes 16.8 million color combinations w, included preset profiles

Logitech G903 Wireless – Best Ambidextrous Gaming Mouse for Big Hands

For left-hand users, it can be fairly difficult to find a good, comfortable mouse. Most mice in the market are targeted toward right-hand users. However, Logitech has the right answer in the guise of the G903 Wireless Gaming Mouse.

This mouse has a truly ambidextrous design with symmetrical lines and is great for both left- and right-handed users. There’s the familiar Hero 25K sensor at the back with 25,600 DPI, 11 programmable buttons, 400+ IPS tracking, infinite scroll supported scroll-wheel, and 110g adjustable weight.

As is the case with other Hero 25K gaming mice in this test, the Logitech G903 is no exception. The gaming performance is fantastic. This gaming sensor is so good that it should exceed the gaming capabilities of 99.99% of gamers out there. There really isn’t much to say other than it’s the best gaming sensor on the market. The wireless tracking is equally as good with a 1,000 Hz polling rate, just like the Logitech G Pro in our test.

Are Bigger Hands Better for Gaming?

A bigger hand can indeed give you a competitive edge when it comes to esports, FPS games, and MMOs. Longer fingers and an overall wider grip, can most definitely make it easier to perform quick 180-degree turns and help you with rapid mouse control. It’s by no means a coincidence that a lot of talented esports players have above-average hand sizes.

How Do You Choose the Right Size Mouse for Your Hand?

To choose the best gaming mouse, you first have to determine the width of your palm. For reference, the width of an average male hand is 3.5 inches, measured from the widest area of one end of the palm to the other. In order to avoid fatigue and maximize comfort, try to pick a mouse that’s around 2/3rd the overall width of your palm. 

For example, a user with a hand width of 4″ (101mm) should look for a mouse with a width of around 2.66 inches (67mm) or more. In this case, the Logitech G502 with a width of 75mm (including the protruding thumb rest) should fit perfectly. 

Frequently Asked Questions About Gaming Mice for Big Hands

The G502 Lightspeed—just like the G502 Hero—is extremely comfortable. None of our testers had any qualms regarding the comfort level of the G502 Lightspeed, and overall, we found it to be a very good mouse for large hands. 

  1. How Long Does a G502 Lightspeed Last?

The G502 Lightspeed mouse should easily serve you for 5 years or more. Despite the fact that it’s lower weight compared to G502 Hero, the overall build quality is not affected thanks to the thin-wall endoskeleton design.

Razer Viper Mini is one of the best gaming mice for big hands. However, we wouldn’t recommend the Razer Viper Mini to people who use the palm grip style, as the mouse’s length is just too short. Lastly, the mouse has an ambidextrous design, but unfortunately, the side buttons are only located on the left, making it unsuitable for left-hand users. 

  1. Is the Logitech G903 Wireless Good for Big Hands?

Logitech G903 Wireless is an ergonomic-centric mouse with gentle curves and a symmetrical, ambidextrous design. Both left and right-handed users find it extremely comfortable to use and prefer it over other ambidextrous mice on the market.
