Top Mouse Picks
View all
Gaming mice have changed a lot in the past few years, and we're at the point where wireless gaming mice have the same or even lower latency than some wired models. You might still prefer the reliability of a wired connection, but the difference isn't noticeable in most cases. When looking for the right gaming mouse, you'll want to find one that fits your hand size and feels comfortable for your preferred grip type. It should also have a high polling rate and low click latency. Mice aren't one size fits all, and you'll want to choose a mouse that complements the games you like. For example, you may prefer a lightweight option for FPS games or a more versatile mouse with many side buttons if you play MOBAs, MMOs, or Battle Royales.
We've tested over 400 mice, most of which are gaming mice, so if you're looking for the best wireless or the best wired gaming mouse, we've listed our top picks below. If you're only interested in wireless options, see our picks for the best wireless gaming mice, or if you're looking for a mouse not entirely dedicated to gaming, see our recommendations for the best mice or the best wireless mice.
