Razer's DeathAdder is a great choice for most hand sizes and grips, though it is slightly bigger than a typical mouse. It has a highly accurate sensor, software that enables lots of customization and, of course, RGB lighting.

Cons
Con Requires signing in and connecting to a server before the mouse can be used to its full potential
To get the latest drivers or edit settings you have to download "synapse" an "online cloud device updater and profile storage" application. You have to register an account with your email and have it running in the background constantly for changes to take effect.
Con Rubber side grips get sticky, slide around and eventually come off
If your hands sweat, the rubber side grips will often get sticky and eventually peel off, as they are just glued on to the sides of the mouse. You can superglue them back on relatively easy, but it's a nuisance.
Con Distracting lights
Although the lights on the mouse look nice, they may bother or be distracting to some people. If they are too distracting, they can be turned off but that does require proprietary software that many do not like having installed.
