So as we all know the G400S in no longer available so I have to get something else. I really liked the shape because it's perfect for my claw grip. What I liked about the indents on the sides is that it made it really easy to pick up the mouse. I'm a low sensitivity gamer and during gaming I will pick it up and bring it back to my starting position. I'm basically looking for a similar shape that allows me to use the new mouse in the same way.
The Roccat Kone XTD looks very similar in shape and size but I've read a lot of bad things about the build quality. The scroll wheel seems to be a weak point giving out after a few months. The finish also doesn't seem to last very well. Maybe they've changed this with the latest production runs?
The Corsair M45 also seems like a good choice. It seems to be made for a claw grip with the rough textured surface on the sides making it easy to pick it up. I don't know how long that finish lasts so maybe someone can comment on this?
If there are other mice I should look at I'd love to hear it.

Replacement for my now deceased G400S.
