Gamers typically need a DPI-adjustable gaming mouse. A lower DPI actually gives better control and precision, so it’s fine for regular users.

This means high DPI mice are mainly used with high-resolution screens or multi-screen displays. The DPI (dots per linear inch) of a mouse is how far and fast it will move the cursor on the screen per every inch it moves in reality. Laser mice are more sensitive and less precise but can be used on more surfaces, such as glass. Optical mice only work on flat, opaque surfaces and are more steady and precise. There are two main types of mouse sensors - optical and laser. While rechargeables are better for the environment and more convenient, those with single-use batteries should still run for very long, even up to 2 years, before requiring replacement batteries. Most wireless mice use either rechargeable batteries or single-use batteries. Bluetooth mice don’t use a dongle therefore, they don’t require a USB port at all and can often be used with multiple devices.īeing wireless, these types of mice require a battery to run. They’re also more precise, though more susceptible to interference. RF mice connect via a plugin USB dongle, so they are easier to set up. Most wireless mice connect to your PC via one of two methods - Bluetooth or radio frequency (RF). Travel mice tend to have less features but are more compact and lightweight. However, they may be more pricey than your regular wireless mouse. Gaming mice are generally more accurate thanks to a more sensitive sensor, have an ergonomic design and additional programmable function buttons. There are a few different types of wireless mice, including gaming and travel mice. The best wireless mouse for you may not be the best for everyone else! With this in mind, it is important to consider mouse type, connection type, battery life, sensor type, DPI, polling rate and buttons. Available in burgundy, cobalt blue, platinum, and black
