The Best FPS Mouse - Winter 2025 Mice Reviews

On the hunt for the best FPS mouse out there? We recommend the Razer Viper V3 Pro. It's the successor to the Razer Viper V2 Pro, our previous top pick, improving on it in several ways. It features a new, more subdued design and a familiar shape that's ideal for a wide variety of hand sizes and grip types. It's now even lighter and sports Razer's updated Focus Pro 35K sensor, one of the most accurate and consistent sensors we've ever tested. It supports a maximum wireless polling rate of 8000Hz out of the box and delivers some of the lowest click and sensor latency figures available, providing an incredibly responsive gaming experience.

If you don't mind missing out on absolutely bleeding-edge performance, Razer's previous generation Viper V2 Pro is still an outstanding choice, and it's currently available for cheaper than ever. Lastly, we'd be doing a disservice if we didn't mention the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2. It's a close competitor to the Razer, and its shape accommodates a wider range of hand sizes and grip types. It falls just shy of delivering the same level of sensor performance as the Razer, but it's an outstanding wireless gaming mouse in its own right.

For FPS gamers who want the best balance of performance and cost, we recommend the Hitscan Hyperlight as our best mid-range option. This mouse is slightly smaller and lighter than our top pick, the Razer Viper V3 Pro. Weighing slightly over 40g, this mouse is ideal for FPS gamers since it's easy to flick around quickly and accurately. Its symmetrical shape and medium-sized hump also mean it's compatible with claw, palm, and fingertip grips alike. As far as performance goes, the Hitscan delivers an outstanding and responsive gaming experience thanks to its incredibly low click and sensor latency.

While the version we tested only supports a 1000Hz polling rate out of the box, you can achieve a higher 8000Hz polling rate, like on our top pick, the V3 Pro, by purchasing an additional dongle. Just know this incurs extra costs. As for the build quality, while it's excellent overall since the design incorporates an open bottom plate design to save on weight, it's prone to collecting dust and debris. Finally, as this mouse is released in batches, you'll need to head over to Hitscan's website to purchase one.

If you're looking for a budget pick, we recommend checking out the Keychron M3 Mini. It's remarkably lightweight, weighing only slightly more than our top pick, the Razer Viper V3 Pro. It also has a comfortable, symmetrical shape that's on the small side, but it's still accommodating to most hand sizes and grip types. It's no slouch in terms of performance, either. It touts PixArt's flagship PAW3395 sensor, which helps it achieve impressively low latency numbers that deliver a precise and responsive gaming experience.

This mouse has some less common features compared to other high-performance gaming mice. It comes with both a USB-A and a USB-C wireless receiver, which is especially useful if you game on a laptop. It falls short of more premium options because of its somewhat scratchy mouse feet and buttons that feel a bit mushy. It's also not quite on the same performance tier as our more expensive picks, as it has slightly higher click and sensor latency than those options. Overall, this mouse is a very compelling option that will provide an excellent FPS gaming experience at a reasonable price point.

If you're looking for the best cheap option, we recommend the Logitech G203 LIGHTSYNC. Depending on where you live, this mouse may be called the G102 or G103, but all these are the same mouse. This wired model has a comfortable egg-like shape that's a good fit for most hand sizes, and it's available in several eye-catching colors to suit your style. It also has full RGB lighting that you can adjust using the customization software. It doesn't deliver the same sensor accuracy as the more expensive options on this list. Its click latency is good enough to deliver a great experience for any games you play, including fast-paced and competitive games.

Its only flaw is its weight, as it isn't nearly as easy to maneuver quickly as our budget pick, the Keychron M3 Mini, or other more expensive options on this list. If you're looking for a much lighter mouse at a similar price, check out the Cooler Master MM720. It has a small and fairly wide shape but is very comfortable for most hand sizes. Its performance is similar to that of the Logitech mouse, but its light weight makes it easier to move around quickly and precisely. Its biggest downside is its build quality; it squeaks and creaks when you apply enough pressure.

If you're an enthusiast looking for a mouse with bleeding-edge performance, we recommend the Endgame Gear OP1 8k. This wired mouse has a fairly narrow, symmetrical shape with a low profile hump towards the back of the body, making it well-suited for claw and fingertip grip types. It's remarkably lightweight, weighing less than 50g, making it incredibly easy to aim with speed and precision. What sets this mouse apart is what's under the hood. It sports PixArt's flagship PAW3395 gaming sensor with a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz.

Pushing the polling rate to its maximum can produce smoother and more fluid cursor movement and ensure you get the lowest and most consistent latency performance this mouse can deliver. It also uses Kailh GX SPDT (single-pole double-throw) switches, which have a dedicated "GX Speed" mode, providing the lowest possible click latency performance due to its special click design. Unfortunately, some games, including a few popular competitive titles, still don't fully support higher polling rate settings.

Endgame Gear also sells the Endgame Gear XM2 8k, which has the same internals and performance as the OP1 8k with a larger and wider body. You can compare the shapes of the two mice using our 3D shape comparison tool.
