The top 6 wire-free mice we’ve tested

If you’re looking for a gaming mouse that’s made for serious competive play and is tremendously lightweight, then we rate the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 as the very best wireless gaming mouse around.

The G Pro X Superlight 2 offers a remarkbly speedy 32K DPI Hero 2 sensor and an equally speedy Lightspeed wireless connection, using Logitech’s USB receiver. You also get up to 95 hours of battery life, to keep you gaming for hours on end.

In our testing, we found this wireless mouse to be extremely comfortable and impressively powerful, while Logitech’s software is easy to use and offers refreshingly adaptable customisation options.

The Logitech MX Master 3S is, in our view, the best wireless mouse for productivity. It features an 8000 DPI sensor, which is double the sensitivity of the older Master 3, and made for an especially snappy experience for day-to-day working during testing.

In addition, the MX Master 3S also comes with the powers of both Bluetooth and Logi Bolt receiver connectivity, which means you have two ways of connecting the mouse up, and there’s also support for up to three devices, with switching being a doddle during testing thanks to the button on the mouse’s underside.

The battery life here remains unchanged with the last generation, but is still certainly brilliant – it should last for a quoted 70 days on a full charge. And one quick minute of charging via the bundled USB-C cable gives you three hours of playtime.

The design here remains practically identical to the older MX master 3, retaining the tall stature and rubberised coating that offers both modern looks and a mouse that’s especially comfortable to hold over long periods of time. The only real difference when it comes to design is that Logitech has bundled Quiet Click buttons with the Master 3S that offer a dampened sound, which is ideal if you’re someone who doesn’t want to annoy any co-workers. 

The MX Master 3S works with Logitech’s rather clever Options+ software, which offers a handy means of remapping buttons and mouse functions, both for general use, as well as with app specific presets, which is clever. With that being said, perhaps the most clever thing here is the return of Logi Flow. Flow is a feature that allows you to drag and drop documents from one operating system to another, as long as the mouse is connected to two different channels, and the devices you’re using are on the same networks. In testing, with a MacBook Pro and Windows 11 PC, it worked without a hitch and offered quite a boost to productivity.

Many may still not have heard of the upstart Keychron brand and, if you have, it may be for its keyboards. Well, it does mice too, and we found the Keychron M6 to be the best value wireless mouse you can buy.

What makes this mouse from Keychron particularly impressive is that it features a gaming-grade sensor but within a productivity-focused design. Its a useful marriage for those who crave the speed and accuracy of a gaming mouse but don’t need all the frills that brings too when it’s time to just get some work done.

The Keychron M6 is all the more remarkably because of its low £49/$49. To get such a powerful mouse for such a reasonable price is something truly impressive. It’s also backed up by strong battery life, with weeks of juice.

Logitech makes some great productivity-focused full-size peripherals but, for those with small hands or those on the go, the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S is the one to go for. We reckon it’s the best travel mouse.

Costing £89.99/$79.99 this is a mouse to last you for years, with a sturdy and compact body that can be easily slung in a bag. It weighs just 99 grams and comes in at postiviely miniscule measurements of 65 x 34.4 x 100.5mm. Despite its small size, you get a solid 8000 DPI sensor, which is plenty of accuracy for an productivity mouse. It works great across many surfaces too.

Along with the handy Logitech Options+ software for customising your experience, you get useful dual modes of connectivity through Bluetooth and the Logi Bolt receiver.

The Logitech Lift is an excellent choice if you’re after a wireless mouse that also spares a thought for the true comfort of long working hours.

As the name suggests, and as the chassis demonstrates, this is more of an ergonomic choice given it offers a much more raised, handshake-style position than a standard mouse. During testing, the Lift proved to be more comfortable than other mice we’ve used in the past and did an excellent job of alleviating any wrist strain we would otherwise usually get towards the end of a working day.

Inside, the Logitech Lift comes with up to 4000 DPI’s worth of sensitivity, which is plenty for general office work, and the sensitivity proved to be more than enough to suit its use case during testing. Much like a lot of Logitech’s other products, the Lift comes with the brand’s Easy Switch function that makes switching between up to three connected devices an absolute doddle. Having this within such easy reach is especially handy if you’re someone who often works with multiple devices at once. 

There are also two means of connecting the Lift to a device, either through Bluetooth or the bundled USB receiver, giving you even more control. Unlike Logitech’s more premium peripherals, there isn’t a rechargeable battery inside the Lift, as it’s powered by a AA battery which Logitech says can allow the mouse to last for up to 24 months. It works with Logi+ Options which provides customisation for changing the DPI and mapping out button inputs, which is especially useful.

If you looking for a fast wireless gaming mouse with a solid battery life that isn’t overly expensive, the Razer Viper V3 HyperSpeed is our pick. 

The Viper V3 HyperSpeed is designed with speed and accuracy in mind. The mouse has a lightweight design and a slim, low-profile body with a limited number of buttons. There’s a DPI toggle in the centre to switch between different presets and profiles, but no light or right-click on the mouse wheel. 

You might be wondering how the Viper V3 HyperSpeed compares to the Viper V2 that came before it. Firstly, the V3 Hyperspeed is physically smoother and sleeker, ditching the edgy V2 look. The mouse also drops the optical switches found on the Viper V2, though it does feature the same 30,000 DPI optical sensor. 

Our reviewer never felt held back by the sleek, lightweight design when faced with a variety of games, including World War Z, Halo Infinite, Valorant and Counter-Strike 2. When paired with the wireless receiver in the box, the mouse suffered no lag, delay or jitter. There’s also 1000Hz polling and a very good 280-hour battery life. 

You can even push the polling to 4000Hz with the addition of Razer’s Hyperpolling dongle, though this isn’t included with the house and lowers the battery life considerably.

The Asus ROG Keris II Ace weighs just 54g, making it our top recommendation for those in need of a lightweight wireless mouse. 

This mouse isn’t just lightweight, its also very comfortable with a tall design that feels natural in the hand. It might not boast the most eye-catching design, but as far as comfort goes, the Keris II Ace is top-tier, with the mouse’s weight making it perfect for dragging around and lifting during long work days and extended gaming sessions. It also comes with grip tape, which you can add if you feel you need it. 

The mouse features Asus’ ROG AimPoint Pro optical sensor and a 130-hour battery life over Bluetooth, though this drops to 100 hours when using a 2.4Ghz connection. The latter also supports 4000Hz polling, while the mouse can reach 8000Hz over a wire. 

We tested the Keris II Ace alongside a range of titles, including Overwatch 2, Diablo IV and Helldivers 2 and experienced no drop in tracking during wired or wireless play, with the short travel of the microswitch buttons enabling ultra-fast clicks while providing enough resistance to prevent any accidental shots.
