Packaging

The Nemesis Switch Optical RGB comes in a package with the usual Thermaltake eSPORTS colors, where the red and black colors are highly dominant. The front panel can be opened, and you can see the mouse through a transparent plastic cover here. The contents of the box are an installation guide, warranty policy book, two stickers and the mouse itself—there is no extra set of mouse feet unfortunately.

Shape

The shape is a right-handed ergonomic design, and the right side slopes downward a bit compared to the left. The shell is very unique as I don't recall ever using a mouse with a form factor like this. However, it is comfortable. It feels quite tall and almost orb-like at the back; everything is rounded very nicely and smoothly. The main buttons at the front are grooved, which has the index and middle (or even ring) fingers rest in a comfortable, relaxed position. The right side has a slight ledge for the ring finger or pinky to rest on as well.


I found the Nemesis Switch Optical RGB to be perfectly suitable for a palm grip with my 18.5 cm hands. However, this is not a guarantee that it will suit you as well if you have similarly sized hands. In my honest opinion, this mouse will find its target group in palm grippers with medium-sized hands. It might be suitable for claw-gripping with larger hands, but the design is quite bulky, so it is hard to say. The mouse can be considered relatively short as it is only 111 mm (4.37") long. At the widest part, it's 88.5 mm (3.49") wide, but this includes the thumb rest area. The gripping width sits at around 61 mm (2.4"), measured until the edge of the side buttons. The mouse is 38.89 mm (1.68") tall at its highest point, and the hump is a bit towards the back.
