What is the best mouse for a computer?

The best mouse for a computer depends on your specific needs and preferences. The right computer mouse should be comfortable, high quality, easy to set up and suited to the task at hand.

• Gamers may opt for a gaming mouse which has higher accuracy, less latency and programmable buttons.
• Office users should look for a mouse that is ergonomic to lessen wrist strain, reliable and intuitively designed for maximum workflow efficiency.

Mwave stocks a wide range of computer mouse brands from high-end to budget friendly including Logitech, Apple, Razer, Microsoft and Corsair. 

What are the different types of computer mouse?

A mouse can be wired or wireless (USB or Bluetooth), have an optical or laser sensor, battery operated or rechargeable, left or right handed, or able to be used interchangeably. Features such as LED lighting, customisable buttons and ergonomic design can mean that a wireless gaming mouse can look very different to a light, portable, laptop mouse. 

When choosing a computer mouse you should consider the level of DPI (dots per inch) you need. This describes the number of pixels the cursor will move across the screen per inch of physical movement by the mouse. Modern mice sensitivity can be as high as 25,000 DPI. Creatives, those in technical professions, or high-level gamers will benefit from an extra sensitive high DPI mouse.

Can I use any mouse with my computer?

Though most computer mice will connect to a Mac or PC straight out of the box, you should check if the mouse is compatible with your computer’s specific operating system first. For example a mouse designed to work with Apple devices is the best choice for that operating system. 

You should also ensure your computer has sufficient ports for your mouse if it's wired like USB or USB-C, and updated software capability for your mouse to work optimally. Depending on the type of mouse, you may need to download the relevant driver from the manufacturer.
