Shape

Compared to the Xlite V2, the shape of the V3 has received several changes, both on the aesthetic and geometric level. While front and back width are a match, the V3 is slightly shorter, the hump isn't quite as tall, and it isn't as wide around the grip area. In addition, the comfort grooves on the main buttons have been deepened, and the button pieces are now separated from the main body, and framed by ledges, akin to the DeathAdder V3. While the placement of the side buttons is largely unchanged, the scroll wheel has been enlarged considerably. Particularly notable of course is the total absence of holes on the V3. Overall, the changes aren't massive, but the difference in size in particular may alter how the V3 feels in-hand compared to the V2.


As for grip styles, I'd say the Xlite V3 mostly suits palm and claw grip. It is a large mouse with a fairly 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 Xlite V3 very comfortable in claw grip.

Dimensions

This table includes the dimensions of the Pulsar Xlite V3 (Size 3) and several other right-handed ergonomic mice. "Front height" denotes the distance between the base and main buttons. Measurements with two decimals have been taken with a caliper, while those with one decimal have been taken with a ruler. For a full list of all measurements taken, please refer to this sheet compiled by an esteemed community member.
