A wireless mouse offers extra convenience and ensures no cable resistance, giving gamers more control and precision that can be of importance in games where they have to be pixel-perfect.

Wireless mice have come a long way to the point where the difference between a wired and wireless one is just the cable. Manufacturers have reduced click latency to match wired mice, improved battery life, and made them light enough to be reliable as a gamer's daily driver.

At only 59 grams of weight, it is one of the lightest mice you can get and what makes it impressive is that it is made up of solid plastic, unlike other light mice that have holes to reduce weight. It's a simple mouse with 5 buttons and a streamlined design, but it is the go-to choice for many esports players such as S1mple, one of CS:GO's prodigies.

It lacks RGB lighting, but that is not something that will affect its performance. The Logitech mouse also has onboard storage in its dongle connector. With 70 hours of battery life, it will last a long time, and gamers can always charge it when not using it.


2) Razer Viper Ultimate

This is an ambidextrous mouse with a pair of buttons on either side, making it an excellent choice for both left and right-handed people. The charging dock that comes in the box will fully charge this mouse in less than two hours, lasting for about 70 hours.

The Viper Ultimate connects with Razer's Hyperspeed Wireless transmission, giving it less than 0.2ms latency. It has an onboard memory that can save your settings and carry them over to other PCs without Razer's Synapse software installed.

It comes with two wireless connectivity options, Bluetooth and a USB dongle, and can be connected to a wire as well. Depending on how you connect the mouse, it will change the battery usage, ranging from it lasting from 90 to 120 hours.

A unique feature of "Sensor Fusion Control," which is not seen in any other mice, is programmable tilt gestures. With a six-axis gyro and accelerometer installed in this mouse, you can tilt the mouse and map various actions for more control during gaming.
