Best Wireless Mice 2020

The Logitech MX Master series has been the king of productivity for years, and the MX Master 3 is the latest evolution of that heritage.

This mouse takes everything great about its predecessor, the MX Master 2S, and polishes it to perfection. There’s its long battery life, a comfortable and ergonomic shape, plenty of customizable buttons, and the choice of Bluetooth or USB connectivity—and the list goes on.

Hands down, our favorite part of the MX Master 3 is the new magnetic scroll wheel. It simulates a mechanical wheel perfectly and just feels amazing to use. The thumb wheel is still there, too, and is bigger and easier to use as well.

But the high price can’t be ignored. If you want to save a few bucks, the older MX Master 2S is still available and is now cheaper.

Pros:

• Comfortable design
• Amazing scroll wheel
• Lots of useful features

Cons:

• Expensive
• Heavy

There is no shortage of excellent gaming mice on the market today, from the Razer Deathadder Elite to the SteelSeries Sensei 310. But out of the sea of possibilities, the Logitech G Pro Wireless stands out as our favorite.

First off, it’s an ambidextrous mouse, so lefties aren’t left out in the cold. The buttons are excellent, and the side buttons can even be removed and repositioned in any configuration you want, with up to two on each side.

The G Pro is very light for a wireless mouse, so you can flick it around quickly to get that perfect shot. And, most importantly, it’s unbelievably accurate. It’s expensive, true, but we think it’s worth every penny if you’re serious about your gaming.

Pros:

• Lightweight and comfortable
• Ambidextrous
• Extremely accurate

Cons:

• Very expensive

If you’re looking for a solid, reliable wireless mouse on a budget, it doesn’t get much better than the Bluetooth Mobile Mouse from Microsoft.

This mouse features three buttons (left click, right click, and a clickable scroll wheel) and a long battery life, and it comes in a choice of black, blue, or red. It’s also small, so you can easily throw it in your bag and take it with you if you need to get out of the office.

The only real trade-off for that low price is the lack of customizable buttons—what you see is what you get. Other than that, it’s good enough to get the job done. It is small, though, so it could get uncomfortable to use for very long sessions, depending on your hand size.

Pros:

• Compact and lightweight build
• Sturdy frame
• Great price

Cons:

• Lacks extra buttons
• May be too small for some

For a fully featured mouse that’s small enough to toss in your laptop bag, look no further than the MX Anywhere 2S. This mouse packs most of the features of the MX Master into a compact, portable package that feels great to use.

Most portable and travel mice are pretty basic. But the MX Anywhere features seven fully programmable buttons, which immediately puts it ahead of the pack for customization.

It’s also very accurate, and it uses Logitech’s Darkfield laser tracking, so it works on anything from a mouse pad to a glass table. And to top it all off, the price is just right.

Our only complaint is comfort—it’s just a bit too small to use for extended sessions, so if you’re looking for a mouse to use primarily at your desk, we’d recommend one of our full-size picks.

Pros:

• Compact and portable shape
• Great price
• Plenty of customizability

Cons:

• A little heavy for a portable mouse
• Uncomfortable for long sessions

While standard mice can be designed to be highly ergonomic, the position they put your hand in still puts you at risk of repetitive strain injury (RSI) and carpal tunnel syndrome.

There are some excellent wireless trackballs available that help, but they lack the accuracy of a traditional mouse. Vertical mice, on the other hand, keep your hand in a comfortable upright position while offering the full accuracy and function of a mouse.

The best vertical ergonomic mouse is the Logitech MX Vertical. This mouse is incredibly well-built and features six programmable buttons. Battery life is excellent for a rechargeable wireless mouse, and it can connect with either Bluetooth or Logitech’s Unifying Receiver.

While it can be hard to get used to at first, there’s a lot that you (and your body) will love about the MX Vertical.

Pros:

• Very comfortable feel once you get used to it
• Plenty of programmable buttons
• Excellent battery life

Cons:

• More expensive than other options
• A bit heavy to transport and use for long periods
