Other Ergonomic Mice to Consider
There are respective much options connected nan marketplace to consider. These didn't trim it arsenic our apical picks for 1 logic aliases another, but we still for illustration them capable to recommend.
Razer Pro Click V2
Razer Pro Click V2 for $120: The biggest tie of nan Pro Click V2 (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is nan shape: It’s sleek, refined, and comfortable. Instead of nan crisp edges and angles of nan Razer Basilisk, nan Pro Click V2 has nan curves of a normal rodent and is conscionable arsenic comfortable successful an agency mounting arsenic it would beryllium successful a gaming setup. And that’s what makes nan Click guidelines out—you tin usage it everywhere, for everything. The style is comfortable for regular use, nan creation is innocuous yet still satisfying, and nan rodent has astir of nan accustomed trappings of a productivity mouse: An ergonomic shape, dual-mode rodent wheel, multidevice Bluetooth connectivity, and a slot connected nan underside to shop nan dongle. At nan aforesaid time, it has nan specs of a gaming mouse: 1,000-Hz polling, 2.4-GHz connectivity, afloat programmability, rubberized grips connected either side, and agleam RGB lighting connected nan underside. The Pro Click v2 besides has horizontal scrolling done nan rodent wheel, wherever it tin beryllium tilted to either broadside to scroll near and right. This isn’t rather arsenic speedy aliases intuitive arsenic nan MX Master’s thumb wheel, but it’s still bully to have. While it doesn’t lucifer nan Basilisk successful performance, nan Pro Click V2 is much affordable and a master action that still has nan sturdy build value and responsive sensors Razer is known for.
Keychron M6
Keychron M6 for $70: If you for illustration nan creation of nan MX Master line, but would for illustration a much gaming-oriented mouse, nan Keychron M6 is simply a bully alternative. While nan M6 doesn’t person Logitech’s precocious motion controls aliases soft-touch exterior, it maintains nan dual-mode scroll wheel, horizontal wheel, and wide ergonomics while adding a 4,000-Hz refresh complaint and shaving disconnected almost half nan weight of nan 3S astatine only 78 grams. However, immoderate mini issues of build value and a nonaccomplishment of functionality make this a less-than-ideal prime for astir users—the dual-mode scroll instrumentality rattles during use, and nan rodent feels lightweight to a fault. The higher-performance model’s wireless receiver requires a USB-C cablegram to link to a device, which is simply a batch little convenient for laptop users compared to nan low-profile dongle included pinch nan 1,000-Hz exemplary (and astir different mice today).
Keychron M4
Keychron M4 for $70: While you tin realistically carrier immoderate of nan mice connected this database successful a backpack aliases machine bag, I was impressed by conscionable really compact nan Keychron M4 is. I could easy gaffe it into a laptop container aliases overgarment pouch without immoderate issue, and I moreover utilized it arsenic a recreation rodent for rather a while. While nan style isn’t great, aliases moreover good, ergonomically, I recovered nan claw grip rather comfortable moreover during prolonged gaming sessions. However, it isn’t bully capable that I would urge it to anyone for regular usage connected a desktop setup unless they want nan lightest rodent possible. The only existent title I had pinch this rodent was nan dongle: The 4,000-Hz exemplary comes pinch a receiver shaped for illustration a mini keyboard pinch a USB-C larboard connected nan back, which meant I needed a cablegram to link nan receiver and a level aboveground to spot it on. Meanwhile, nan 1,000-Hz exemplary came pinch a elemental USB dongle that could plug into nan broadside of a laptop.
Logitech Pro X Superlight 2 Dex
Logitech Pro X Superlight 2 Dex for $140: While this rodent is intended for high-intensity competitory gaming, I recovered its sculpted style to beryllium applicable and comfortable for immoderate semipermanent use, and its lightweight (60 grams!), no-frills creation was speedy and snappy for some spreadsheets and shooters. The rodent felt incredibly sturdy contempt its weight, and nan 8-kHz polling mixed pinch a 44k-dpi sensor makes it nan best-performing rodent connected this list. While pricey, nan Superlight DEX is simply a awesome single-mouse solution for personification who useful from location and instantly starts queueing up aft clocking out. It has a acold much gaming-focused thin than nan Razer Basilisk V3, which, while not bad, intends you’re making a fewer much sacrifices to productivity successful speech for gaming performance.
Logitech MX Vertical
Logitech MX Vertical for $120: While this mouse’s size and wide style some consciousness bully for regular use, I recovered nan style to beryllium a spot uncomfortable to afloat grip and lift: A salient ridge connected nan backmost dug into nan abstraction betwixt my thumb and scale finger, and nan style was conscionable a spot excessively constrictive to get a bully clasp on. However, nan MX Vertical is still comfortable to clasp pinch a looser grip, and it is perfectly serviceable for wide agency activity and browsing, while putting little strain connected nan wrist than a modular horizontal mouse.
Logitech Lift
Logitech Lift for $79: As 1 of nan smaller vertical mice connected this list, nan Lift is conscionable a spot excessively small. I recovered it difficult to comfortably grip this rodent for prolonged use, and friends pinch smaller hands recovered nan same. That said, WIRED reviews editor Julian Chokkattu says his 5'2" woman uses nan Life and finds it cleanable for her mini hands, truthful your mileage will vary. Regardless of manus size, a larger vertical rodent is typically much comfortable for astir people. It's worthy noting that nan Lift is 1 of nan only vertical mice I've tested pinch a left-handed configuration.
