Shape
The shape of the Lift 2 Symm closely follows the ambidextrous archetype. The hump is moderately pronounced, centered, and slopes down gradually towards both ends. The front and rear flare out to a moderate degree, and the main buttons feature moderately deep comfort grooves. The dimensions are well-balanced relative to each other, with only the grip width being slightly above average compared to a competitor such as the Razer Viper 8K. Overall, an agreeable design without any unique traits.
As for grip styles, I'd say the Lift 2 Symm mostly suits palm and claw grip, with fingertip grip being a possibility as well. It is a large-sized mouse with a moderately pronounced hump, which should make it generally suit medium to large-size hands. For reference, my hands are 19 cm long and 10 cm wide, and I found the Lift 2 Symm comfortable in claw grip.
