Much like a gaming keyboard, a gaming mouse offers the ergonomics and customisation that standard office computer equipment just can’t match. Leading brands such as Logitech, Roccat, Razer, Glorious, and more offer wireless gaming mice that have been designed specifically for the rigours of gaming. Nowadays, the top-performing wireless gaming mice are now on par with their wired counterparts for lag and latency, so you'll have all the features and speed of a gaming mouse but now with the added freedom of being wireless!
There are three main styles of mouse grip – palm, claw, and fingertip – and there are gaming mice available to suit these (some will offer support and comfort for more than one grip style too). Due to their design and constant development over the years, wireless gaming mice are an ideal choice for those who prioritise comfort. For an extra level of functionality, wireless gaming mice are made from efficient, anti-sweat materials – so you can game for as long as you desire. Recently, many popular wireless gaming mice are available in ambidextrous shapes, such as the Razer Viper and Logitech G Pro Wireless among others, so no matter if you're right-handed or left-handed.
The major difference between a standard wireless mouse and a wireless gaming mouse is the response time. An ordinary office mouse generally has noticeable delay and lag between moving or clicking the mouse and seeing those actions reflected on your display. In contrast, most wireless gaming mice detect movement and button presses much faster meaning you can stay competitive in your favourites games. Needless to say, this can help provide you with the best chance against your competitors.
