(Okay, only two of those are grip types, but close enough.) “Latch” is the curviest piece, with a generous dip for your thumb and flare toward the back. “Claw” is for claw grips and is designed for those who use a claw grip and have their thumb at more of an angle. “Pinch” features a thumb indent that’s placed slightly forward, and “average” is a flatter piece with a thumb indent set slightly to the back.<\/p>\n

(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\nThere are seven right-side pieces: Average, pinch, claw, right-hand, xtra, slash, and wave. The first three \u2014 average, pinch, and claw, are the right-side counterparts to their left-side pieces; “average” is somewhat flat and asymmetrical to its left-side counterpart, “pinch” is designed for a grip that’s shifted forward, and “claw” is for an angled grip. “Right-hand” is designed for palm grips and gives you more of a sloped finger rest. The last three \u2014 xtra, slash, and wave \u2014 are designed from handscans of gamers, and feature finger channels based on your grip style to give you more control.<\/p>\n

Wave took me a little while to get used to, as I usually have my pinky and ring finger resting closer to the center of most mice, but once I got used to it I loved it \u2014 having my fingers so close to the front of the mouse gave me more control, which I’m not used to when I use a palm grip.<\/p>\n

Unlike the spacer issue with the hump, the side pieces fit very securely to the mouse with one or both spacers installed (though you’ll still see a lot of space if you have both installed), and I had no issues with creaking, flexing, or movement from the side pieces while I was using the mouse.<\/p>\n
The mouse also comes with three side button sizes, which seem to be mainly designed to accommodate use of the side spacers, as they’re longer but are otherwise identical in shape.<\/p>\n
