Mouse Shapes

Product Information

Sensitivity ranges depend on the game so tweak that accordingly. Different types of games require different sensitivities, games with small hitboxes and more long range fighting like PUBG, you might want a lower sensitivity.

Pair that with the fantastic thumb rest, longer buttons and you have yourself a superbly ergonomic mouse that boasts improvements we didn't know we needed from the Logitech G502 line. Furthermore, thumb buttons are helpful and can be programmed. Typically, you could set one of your mouse’s thumb buttons to press ENTER and the other to press ESC. The Razer Viper Ultimate is an excellent alternative if you're interested in some of these legacy features and don't mind a somewhat heavier mouse. It's also more affordable than ever before. Or, if you have larger hands and prefer an exclusively right-handed design, we suggest looking at the Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro, which shares the same internals as the Viper V2 Pro and is only marginally heavier. If you like your mouse with a bit of weight then make sure the mouse you get has a weight system that still keeps the balance of the mouse neutral. Reliability & Warranty Angle snapping happens when a mouse tries to predict your movements, which may make you miss your sweet headshots.Logitech, Gigabyte Asus and Razer lead the way with RGB sync options, so if keeping your colours in sync are important to you then look to them for peripherals. Wireless

It's been a long time since we last looked at the wired Logitech Pro gaming mouse (nearly eight years), and I was surprised to see that design has more or less stayed the same after all that time with upgrades beneath the surface—both the Pro Wireless and Pro X Superlight wirelessuse a similar form factor. After using the Pro for a bit, it's safe to say if it ain't broke, well, you know.If you're looking for a wireless option, the Razer Basilisk V3 X HyperSpeed is a similar mouse in the same lineup that you can connect with its USB receiver or via Bluetooth. However, it's a bit more expensive than the Basilisk V3 and has fewer programmable buttons or a scroll wheel with a free-scrolling mode. Grip style: Since ergonomic shapes have an asymmetrical design; they force you to grip it in a way that might be uncomfortable. This limits the grip styles you can try, especially if you have smaller hands. As a historical note, all of these shapes are essentially descended from the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0, which shares its shape with the Pro Intellimouse. A different way for kids to learn shapes with mice is to let them fold paper into these exact shapes. They can play with paper mice that have different trunk shapes to understand the differences. One mouse may have a rectangular body while another has a circle or triangle-shaped body. Cut-and-paste activities are great because they work on students’ motor skills. In this activity, kids can work on their fine motor skills by folding the edges of the mice and then pasting them onto their sheets of paper to make the picture.

The G305 uses Logitech's Hero sensor, an iteration of the fantastic sensor Logitech's best mouses, from the classic G502 down to the G Pro X Superlight. It can last more than 200 hours on a single AA battery (which helps keep the cost down vs. being rechargeable). All the mice on this list have great buttons, low latency and high performance along with good battery life (if wireless). If you play mostly FPS, you want tactile buttons and a light weight. A MOBA player might need more buttons for skill hot keys and someone who plays a lot of genres might want a mouse that can do both. The best computer mouse we've tested is the Logitech MX Master 3S, the newest version in Logitech's MX Master lineup. This mouse has all the standout features of previous models in the series, including an ergonomic right-handed shape, a gesture button on the thumb rest, and two dedicated scroll wheels. The side-mounted scroll wheel handles horizontal scrolling, while the scroll wheel on top automatically switches between a precise notched scrolling mode and a much faster free-scrolling mode. You connect the Logitech wirelessly via Bluetooth or its USB receiver, and it supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously. A mouse needs to achieve a strong build quality, while keeping weight low, most gamers tend to play better with lower weight, under 100 grams ideally. It helps that this mouse has great buttons, a long battery life on a single battery, as well as a great shape for a fraction of the Superlight’s price.

With the Logitech G305 Lightspeed, Logitech has created a high-performance wireless gaming mouse that doesn't cost the earth. Its mid-range price has it competing against some great wired mice, but there's no compromise in performance or design.

You should look for a mouse with a safe shape, with subtle curves for comfort. Not overly grooved so that the mouse forces you to hold it in a certain way for you to comfortably use it. Don’t get a mouse with overly pronounced shapes and grooves With wireless you must also consider the battery life, and again, most modern wireless gaming mice have the battery life to withstand a full days worth of gaming with the ability to go to corded mode when needed. Draw the outline of shapes on the driveway or sidewalk. Then give your child a shape to find and stand on. The distance your mouse travels should always map directly to the distance the cursor moves, this lets you build up muscle memory for consistency. I’ve been playing with and reviewing a ton of mice since 2018. I’ve been playing Apex Legends, Counterstrike, DOTA 2, Overwatch and Diablo IV recently to come up with these recommendations and to ensure that I don’t have any performance blind spots when it comes to gaming.Windows has the option to enable mouse acceleration via software, you want this off to have a consistent experience to build up your muscle memory. Left-handed friendly: While not all gaming mice have side buttons available for left-handed users, a symmetrical shape will still feel the same to both right and left-handed users. Ergonomic gaming mice rarely ever come in a left-handed version. In fact, Logitech has doubled down on making the Logitech G502 X lighter. It comes in at 89g, which is a significant difference over the Hero's 121g. Sadly, it doesn't come with the option to configure the weight like the Hero, which would have been a nice addition considering it's going for the same price as its predecessor. If you’re not sure about which mouse to get and want to make sure you don’t miss anything when you look for a new mouse then you’re in the right place. If you do not already have repetitive stress injury symptoms, you may not want to deal with the tradeoffs of a specialized ergonomic mouse such as reduced fine accuracy and an adjustment period that will lead to some short-term productivity loss. In the case, you can still do yourself a solid and buy a mouse with a comfortable, supportive shape. Conventional mice come in all shapes and sizes, and choosing one that feels good in your hand is one of the most important parts of your buying decision. (Credit: Molly Flores)
