Best Gaming Mouse: Insights and Recommendations

I have the razer basilisk and its the most comfortable mouse i have used, it can also go up to 16000 dpi if thats your thing

There is no best, every hand is different and then there's personal preference, your grip, and what games you play and your playstyle.

The perfect mouse doesn’t exist. Watch Zy’s guide on how to choose a mouse on his YouTube channel: Rocket Jump Ninja

I use the g502 I really like it, if you're into MMO'S then try out the razer naga or the corsair scimitar

G403 takes my vote.

But you really want what you find comfortable, not what someone else does.

If you like the G403, go for it.

Right now the top 2 competitors are the Logitech G Pro Wireless and the Razer Viper Ultimate.

The Logitech G Pro Wireless continues to hold its ground as a frontrunner in the gaming mouse arena. It's the epitome of precision meets agility - super light, incredibly responsive, and with a battery life that seems to defy the laws of gaming physics.
Enter the challenger, the Razer Viper Ultimate. It's shaking up the scene with its feather-light construction and a sensor that's sharp as a tack. What really sets it apart is its ambidextrous design, a real game-changer for the left-handed gamers out there. It's neck and neck with the G Pro, offering a tough choice for gamers seeking the top tier of gaming gear.

Shopping for the right gaming mouse can sometimes be a challenging task with so many options out there. I've found the KLIM Blaze Pro to be an exceptional choice personally. It offers a blend of premium quality, precision, and smoothness that really enhances the overall gaming experience. Its ergonomic design is also noteworthy as it contributes to comfortable longer gaming sessions without strain. It's definitely worth considering if you're looking for something top-tier in this arena! Happy shopping and game on!

We are past bad mice era. Most mice nowdays are good in terms of providing seamless and lagless wireless operation. At the moment we have amazing variety of shapes and all with latest and greatest sensor tech. Only thing that diferentiate best from the rest is durability. Since if its not durable ... its just expensive.

I personally own several mice and all work perfectly and are usable. No complaints on their performance what so ever.

the Logitech G502 - the ultimate gaming mouse!

This bad boy is a game-changer with its precision, customizable buttons, and a scroll wheel that feels like pure magic. Whether you're into FPS, MOBA, or anything in between, the G502's adjustable DPI settings give you the edge you need. The build quality is top-notch, and the design is sleek and ergonomic.

But the real star? The customizable weights! Tailor the mouse to your liking and enjoy that perfect balance. Trust me, once you go G502, you won't want anything else.

Pro-tip: Keep an eye out for sales – this gem is often on promotion, making it an even sweeter deal.

I also just got a Hitscan Hyperlight too and it replaced my main (x2 crazy light). Absolute goated shape

This is a very safe recommendation tbh. Zero works for any game really.

One of my favorite combos of the last year. FrrragWatch here.

True Endgame for me: Naga Pro

there are dozens of possible answers depending on grip/hand size/game choices or uses

Every mouse can be the best if they put their heart into it, or so the ratatouille taught me.

HelloKitty DeathAdder

I can't find a best mouse. My hands are small and I play lefty. I might give the new Pwnage Ambi Wireless a shot tbh

There are so, so many options out there these days. The word "best" is subjective and depends on your personal play style, weight preferences, etc.

The two you listed are good, solid options. You could also look into the Deathadder V2 as it's quite cheap right now on eBay, or a Glorious Model D Wireless, Pulsar Xlite Wireless, etc.

https://aspiranto.myshopify.com/products/gaming-mouse

Xlite V2 is really nice Using it for awhile

Ninjutso Katana, try it.

basically summarizing what everybody else said here, there is no "best" gaming mouse its all based on your opinion. Your hand size, shape preference, grip style, etc.

SHAPE IS KING

Don't go here, go to r/mousereview

People in the mouse review subreddit are actively buying and testing all the new releases, measure their hand size and know how to articulate their actual preferences for why certain mice work for them so they can give people reading their reviews a better understanding if that mouse will also work for them (and still, shape is subjective)

You can also compare the basic profile of shapes over at eloshapes.com

Note: this advice mostly applies to FPS focused mice, but many of them still try out more work focused productivity/ergo style mice for work.

Personal preference, for gaming my favorite is the G502. Used it for years before replacing to a newer version of it.

For work its the G305 because its cheap and wireless and if it breaks a few years later, i can get another one.

Viper v3 or superlight 2 have been the best I've used, I'm not much of a razor fan but I do prefer the viper v3 here, i just prefer the way it glides on the pad, makes it feel super responsive, for gaming obviously.

I’ve read reviews and posts saying how it’s the best…

…but I have several major problems with this mouse.

First, the polling rate is low, which makes the mouse feel unresponsive if you’re using a high refresh rate monitor (just talking about general movement).

Second, if on Bluetooth… also feels unresponsive, but with a subtle amount of latency.

Finally, I’ve owned two of these. Both broke within a month after the 1 year warranty expired, and Logitech wouldn’t make any exception.

Honestly this, if you're not a big mouse macro user, this is a great mouse.

Has super long battery, wireless and just overall a very comfortable mouse for hours of productivity or gaming imo.

I've had mine for years and will probably buy a new one soon.

I think the best part about this mouse is how quiet the clicks are. I use it for work and it’s just fantastic.

On the other hand, my Lamzu Thorn has insanely loud clicks, probably because it’s really hollow.

I bought the orochi v2 for 3.3k 🙂, it's fine as I wanted a wireless one anyway

It's my current mouse. It's a bit on the heavier side but still a great mouse none the less. If you want something lighter then check out VXE R1.

Yes I too bought it for 2.7k and it's a big W considering it was 7k a year back

And also one thing I noticed with infinite scrolling wheel is whenever I scroll upwards/downwards it mis scrolls, I mean it sets itself and thus if I scroll fully downward then a bit will scroll upward aswell ;]

absolute steal deal. I have one thats has been working flawlessley for 2 years now.

Hands down the best mouse I've ever used (using it right now). Easily the best long-term option at this price point.

Deathadder v3 because its the most comfortable shape for my hand size

Xlite V3 mini. If it ever comes out.. and if I get lucky with QC.. Shape/Weight and overall balance fits me perfectly.

I wish more mainstream brands like Razer had mini versions of DaV3pro or GPX though.

Vaxee XE wireless, as long as I can make sure my copy's buttons are stiff enough I don't accidentally click all the time (or I'm allowed to replace the switches myself under your rules)

With so many options its hard to know which mouse to commit to buying. After using a lot of the Elite level products such as (Razer, Logitech, Glorious) I found myself wanting to try a cheaper option to see how it compared. The KLIM Blaze Pro is a mouse you might not have heard about much, but honestly the quality this product has is incredible. It has one of the best sensors on the market, it's fully wireless and comes with a charging dock and the battery is super long-lasting. If you are on a budget and want something that is still going to improve your performance in game, this is the one for you.

I would recommend trying the KLIM Blaze Wireless Gaming Mouse. I have tried a lot of the big brands such as the razer viper v2, the g pro wireless and the glorious model o, but everytime I just thought there was no value for money there. The KLIM Blaze has a high level sensor that provides near immediate response times, it's battery life is extremely long and if you are looking for a mouse with great RGB this is the one for you!

You're right, the Glorious Model O is a great mouse, but there are definitely some exciting new options available, especially if you're looking for a white one! The Razer Viper Ultimate is lightweight, wireless, and comes with a sleek charging dock, making it a great upgrade for gaming.

“For the game” straight to the point, gotta love these mice man

With number 1 you become the best rocket league player

Which one is your pick?

I lowkey had the last mouse when I was younger, banger

Fish tank one slaps

Hand size?

Grip style?

Ambi or ergo?

Wired or wireless?

Vaxee Outset AX wireless

Fantech Aria XD7

Logitech G703

Vaxee XE wireless

There are lots of mice out there. Hand Size/Grip Style? Previous mice you have liked? The more info the better the recommendations :)

Maya

WLmouse beast X

What's your hand size and grip style?

Do you prefer ambi or ergo? 

Wired or wireless? 

I really like the Gpx but it is very overrated in my opinion. Its super expensive and the shape is lowkey mid. The sensor sometimes skips. I really like the Lamzu atlantis cause it has a 4k sensor and the shape is good for a lot of hand sizes.

Safest all around good mouse is the gpx superlight. You also can't go wrong with the x2v2 mini or lamzu Maya. If you want an ergonomic the ec2-cw or deathadder v3. Overall there is no best mouse, I'd recommend looking at what you have now and then finding something similar but higher end

do you want the mouse to be highly programmable and customizable? RGB? wireless?

Anyways, here is a list for you to check. https://realpeoplewin.com/best-budget-gaming-mouse/

Bro buy from aliexpress very good mouse and good price.

Search attack shark R6. It has the latest sensor and its 38 gram weight. Been using it since 3 months now very good mouse

Logitech 502

Coming from a forever razer user. Buy atk x1 pro from AliExpress, use any seller with “choice”. Delivery will be within 10 days. Should cost around 230-240

DMed!

Razer basilisk v3. It’s a better Logitech g502

Razer DeathAdder V2 owner here.

Couldn't ask better than that - I'm in love with it :)

Started with Logitech, then Corsair/Razor(absolute garbage) then back to G502X. Perfect mouse for the price.

I've been using a Logitech MX pro for gaming for 10 years. For my gargantuan hands nothing slides as smooth as it does, and it has perfect default dpi settings for my play style. I had the last one for almost 6 years and only replaced it because lightning struck near my house and killed the optical aperture while I was in the middle of using it.

Bruh redragon has great peripherals. They are cheap but I have had a redragon MMO mouse for years and years and it never did me wrong. At this point I have probably ten different mice, multiple keyboards, they have a keyboard that is only the left half of a keyboard that is called a gaming pad or something, and at this point I couldn't live without it. I bought razers take at this and it fucking sucked and sits in a drawer. The razer Tartarus or something.

Switched to G502 on both of my setups (one wired one wireless) little over a year ago and I think this thing is just perfect. Still have a wired Razer naga for playing WoW but the G502 is incredible

You're probably right. A lot of branded ones made it to this list probably because... their branding worked.

But yeah feel free to filter the data for prices below $50 to see which hidden gems come up https://redditrecs.com/gaming-mouse/

Lovely mouse for productivity. Terrible for gaming

Everyone comes here for gaming recommendations, not productivity.

Viper v3 pro is currently the best on the market imo but its a little bit overpriced. I got it for 172$ off of amazon which is insane now im thinking about it how much more expensive mice have gotten. It also comes with the 8k dongle included so at least thats something.

I'm on this thread looking for what mice are good currently, due to the scroll wheel on my Deathadder v3 Pro being farked.

Viper V3 Pro is the best symmetrical mouse in terms of performance, and the Deathadder v3 is the best ergonomic in terms of performance righr now (will probably be refreshed soonish)

Same bruh im pissed, i love deathadders but this is killer. Might need a new brand EDIT: found this thread and it fixed my mouse lmao - https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/1e8o4u2/deathadder_v3_pro_mouse_wheel_issue_fix_free/

I love my beast x, but you're probably better off buying a Viper v3 pro.

Ha I'm on this thread because the mouse wheel on my Deathadder v3 pro from 2 years ago is getting fucked up.

Adding to the choir. Razer Naga Pro scroll wheel is fucked. It jitters all over the place and sometimes literally scrolls up when scrolling down.

Will not buy Razer again.

Deathadder v3 hyper speed

Yeah for sure, if youre looking into ergos look into the pulsar xlite v3, it should be on sale right now for about 60$ which is an absolute steal. Flagship specs and a great mouse

Depends on what you want.

I want a relaxed claw mouse that is a little wide with at least a decent hump in the back for palm support since I have above average (in this sub) hands. It should have optical switches or hotswap so that it lasts. The clicks should be sharp, and have a good implementation so it feels connected.

I need a good coating that's not slippery like cheaper Chinese mice and doesn't discolor like the GPX. I like a tactile scroll wheel and side buttons. I want a solid battery life so I don't have to recharge it often. I also don't want to overspend since good mice are cheap nowadays.

I previously liked larger back hump mice like the MM711 and GPW, so I picked up a used X2V2 for cheap, and now it's my main.

Sure I had to tweak it since the clicks were a bit sticky, but I also paid half of it's discounted retail price, and it's easy to repair, so I'm happy. Might look for an X2H for more support.

There isn't one.

ULX is good WL beast X is good

There are now a million cheap Chinese mice to choose from that have maxed out specs. VGN F1 ATK F1 VXE R1

Attack shark

I personally think the viper mini shape is the best so I've been using the 3d printed 40g VMSE which is amazing.

Endgame Gear OP18K

Always the one you didn’t buy

lurk moar

Gosh, I hate this kind of questions whenever they pop every now and then. There is no single 'best gaming mouse to rule them all' on the market, since this is all subjective, you have to go with the shapes based on your hand size. If possible, use a 3D printer to print different shapes for yourself, experience with different shapes till you get to a conclusion, for example which one you feel most comfortable with, try lots of shapes until you find your endgame or endgame-ish.

If you have medium size hands, a safe buy is the g pro wireless. It’s ambidextrous, light, and has top tier sensor.

That being said I own a g pro wireless but I prefer to use larger mice for my palm gripping and larger hands measuring 18.5cm x 10.5cm.

Right now I love my Razer Mamba Wireless even though it’s heavier because the shape and width are better for my hands.

I just received a Air58 which is another large mouse for big hands that’s significantly lighter. I’ll need to see if it’s better than the Mamba. I also have a Zowie EC1-B on the way for comparison.

If your going to play mostly FPS I know most would prefer the Zowie mice because they have great shapes, great sensors and the buttons need heavier actuation force to press that prevent misclicks and double clicks. It would be a bad choice for most other genres though that require spamming the buttons or using the scroll wheel a lot.

If you’re looking for one mouse that will do everything well and not tailored for specific genres, I suggest the g pro wireless.

I would go with the G Pro Wireless personally. Its ambidextrous, long lasting battery, top of the line sensor, pretty light compared to most mice, and can be charged wirelessly with Logitechs PowerPlay mouse pad.

Glorious Model O is poised to take the top spot but doesn’t officially release to the public until May 18 2019.

This subreddit tends to go for the following trinity kf mice. GPW, G305, S2

So such thing as "best" mouse. Different people have different hand sizes and grip styles. Best mouse is the one you find most comfortable. With that said if you can give us more information on your grip style and hand size we can provide recommendations.
