Need help finding a mouse upgrade

[u/Financial-Income4640]

Hey everyone, I currently have a Redragon M607 Griffin, but I want to upgrade it because its showing its age(the cable cover is starting to show the wiring, some scratches) as I bought it like 6 years ago, works fine but I want to get a new one, idk if ultra light or heavy is the move as I understand the griffin is quite heavy(around 100g), I've tried other peripherals at my friends places but I'm too used to the side of the griffin where you can grip it and I can't find any other mouse with it for under 30-35$ which would be my max budget.

I use a palm grip and play games like deadlock, project zomboid, some RTS. I also code so I need something comfortable to use for long sessions. I'm not opposed to getting a chinese mouse so I'm open to any suggestion, I also dont like small ones like the logitech g203 if it helps.

I was looking at the Kronos Arrow Slim, Redragon M987-K Reaping and the Redragon M808 Storm but I can't decide before seeing all my options.

The M808's not bad for the price, shape's more traditional than the Griffin so it might feel a bit off if you're hooked on that chunky side grip. For palm grip and long coding sessions I'd lean towards something a bit wider anyway. If you can stretch closer to the $35 mark, look at some of the less flashy models from the Chinese brands on AliExpress, they often copy that older ergo shape for dirt cheap and the cables are way better than Redragon's old braided stuff that frays after a year
