Top Mouses 2023

Dell knocks it out of the park again with the excellent Alienware AW720M gaming mouse. Sleek, lightweight, and gorgeous, this mouse sports some serious hardware and specs. It's also ambidextrous, which very few gaming mice are, and has a first-class battery life.

The Logitech Lift mouse is an excellent productivity device. Its design proved comfortable, alleviating any strain on my wrist, while the companion software offered the ability to adjust the DPI. The main downside of this device is its high price.

After years of asking the beloved Logitech G502 finally goes wireless, and with full Powerplay compatibility as well. This one won’t be leaving our desks for a while.

The Razer Viper Mini Signature Edition is an exceptional FPS gaming mouse. It's extremely lightweight, and its magnesium alloy body feels very sturdy. Performance-wise, its click latency is incredibly low and consistent, and both sensor accuracy and latency are superb. Additionally, this mouse supports a maximum wireless polling rate of 8000Hz, which provides marginally better and much more consistent overall performance at the cost of significant CPU power draw and battery life drain. This mouse offers a remarkably smooth, accurate, and immediate FPS gaming experience.

For a mid-range wireless mouse, the Roccat Kone Air is a fantastic choice that comes with a comfortable chassis for those with larger hands as well as good sensitivity and some perfectly usable software. The battery life is fantastic for the price, although the fact there isn’t any RGB may not mean it’s right for some.

Silent buttons and an 8,000dpi sensor bring Logitech's flagship MX Master 3S Wireless Mouse just one or two clicks from perfection.

This is the best gaming mouse on the market. It’s wireless but performs as well as any wired gaming mouse. It’s lightweight for a wireless mouse, customizable, has great software, and a comfortable design. Sadly, like most wireless gaming mice, you’ll have to plug in every few days to charge up unless you spend another $100 on the POWERPLAY mouse pad. But if you do, you’ve entered mouse nirvana.

The Rival 600 is a fantastic mouse that brings new features to the table while improving and iterating on what has come before. It has the best weighting system yet, and it also has seriously slick RGB lighting and impressive accuracy as well. It's really the total package, and there's very little to complain about aside from some excessive software add-ons which bring little the table.

The Razer DeathAdder V3 is an outstanding FPS gaming mouse. It's extremely lightweight and feels sturdy. Its ergonomic right-handed shape is comfortable, especially with a palm or claw grip for medium or larger-sized hands. Its feet also glide exceptionally smoothly on mousepads and desks. However, while it has a very lightweight and flexible cable, it does retain some kinks from its packaging. Performance-wise, it has exceptionally low and consistent click latency, superb sensor performance, and a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz, providing an extremely responsive-feeling gaming experience.

The Logitech MX Master 2S is an excellent mouse for the office. It feels remarkably well-built and should be comfortable enough to last a full work day without causing soreness. Its plethora of programmable button options will likely please multimedia creators as well, though those with smaller hands may have a hard time reaching all the buttons.
