Our Verdict

Logitech M100

AmazonBasics 3-Button USB Wired Mouse

The Logitech M100 and the AmazonBasics 3-Button USB Wired Mouse are very straightforward wired office mice. The Logitech is heavier but is better built, and the materials it's made of are of higher quality. It also has a higher quality cable and better overall sensor performance.
