Microsoft Sidewinder X8 – Shape & Fit Overview
The Microsoft Sidewinder X8 is a wireless ergonomic gaming mouse weighing 145g with dimensions of 125.6 × 78.8 × 42mm. Its rear-mounted hump makes it particularly well-suited for palm and claw grip styles.
For hand sizing, the Sidewinder X8 fits best for hands measuring 179–228mm in length and 93–113mm in width. If your hand falls outside this range, use the MouseShape fit tool to find a mouse calibrated to your exact measurements.
At 145g, the Sidewinder X8 is classified as full-weight. Heavier mice over 100g deliver a premium, planted feel that some players prefer for precise, deliberate aiming.
The Microsoft BlueTrack sensor provides solid tracking performance for its price point. Maximum DPI is 4,000. Polling rate: 500Hz.
Dimensions listed are from manufacturer specifications. Minor variances may exist between production batches.
