The Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro is an incredible gaming mouse that's light as a feather and just as supportive for palm grippers as it is for gamers with a claw grip. It's obvious that Razer has put a lot of painstaking attention to detail when it comes to its form. As a result, you've got a gaming mouse that offers the best and most comfortable experience, whether they're gaming or working.

Of course, we've found it to be just as impressive in performance and battery life as it is in form. Its satisfying-to-press optical switches and battery life of 90 hours are a boon to every user as well. This isn't just one of the best wireless mice to come out this year it's one of the best gaming mice ever, and more than worth its admittedly steep price.

The Logitech MX Master 3S succeeds the popular MX Master 3, and it's only gotten better. It boasts the same versatility as its predecessors including those seven customizable buttons and three connectivity options, and a battery life that's as long as ever with up to 70 days of charge.

There are improvements here as well, making the line even more ideal for content creators and multitaskers. What's more, it now comes with an 8000 DPI track anywhere sensor that lets it perform beautifully on any surface (even glass). During testing, we found it to be much quieter than its predecessor – 90% quieter in fact – and its sensor to be more responsive and more accurate.

The Logitech G502 X Plus may have abandoned the one feature most gamers loved about the Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless: weight customization. But, it makes up for that with even more impressive features and new tech that will benefit most gamers. Among them are a more lightweight body, a brand-new hybrid optical-mechanical switch, a faster Lightspeed wireless protocol, and double the predecessor's battery life.

Of course, its performance is on point as well. On test, the hybrid optical-mechanical switch delivered immediate responses and extremely satisfying tactile feedback while the HERO 25K sensor proved to be fast and accurate. We only wish that Logitech didn't charge a premium for its Powerplay charging system.

Simply put, the Razer Basilisk Ultimate can do a lot, and it does all of it well. This is a serious wireless gaming mouse with high-end performance and excellent battery life to boot.

But, it knows how to have fun as well, with its fun little charging pedestal that – let’s face it – makes it a lot cooler than it already is and plenty of other extra features like 14 customizable lighting zones, advanced Lift-off/Landing distance customization, and customizable scroll wheel resistance. For all of that, you do have to pay a high price. But, hey, if you’ve got the money to spare, it’s certainly worth the splurge.

Apple’s Magic Mouse 2 might not be perfect – as you cannot charge and use it at the same time – but it’s still an excellent wireless mouse, with a clean, buttonless, multi-touch design and sleek aesthetic that comes in either Space Gray or Silver. In fact, that multi-touch feature alone makes it worth the investment, as it lets you perform trackpad-like functions like swiping and scrolling.

If you’re invested in the macOS ecosystem, this is the best wireless mouse for you. Plus, it’s thin and light like Apple’s MacBooks, so if you’re on the go, it’s easy to slip this into the small pocket of your backpack or laptop bag. It’s not exactly cheap, but it’s worth it.

Roccat is no stranger to premium gaming mice with a cool aesthetic to boot, and the Roccat Kain 202 AIMO clearly hasn’t fallen far from that tree. Rocking high-end performance, great tactile feedback and software support, nice RGB lighting, and an awesome design that is just as cool as it is comfortable, this is kind of the perfect baseline for wireless gaming mice.

Of course, its price is just as luxurious as its new pearly-white shell, but this mouse also does a lot better than the competition in many things. So, it’s certainly worth it, even if you have to break that piggy bank.

Roccat’s Kone line gives its popular and great-performing gaming mice an ergonomic twist. The sleek Roccat Kone Pro Air, Kone Pro’s wireless counterpart, offers users hours of comfortable use with its wide contoured body, a supportive hump, a lightweight frame, and a cable-free connection.

Besides being a pleasure to use, it’s also oozing in versatility, offering both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity as well as a wired one via Roccat’s PhantomFlex USB-C cable. Of course, its performance is nothing to joke about either, thanks to those Titan optical switches that deliver accuracy, speed, and a satisfying feel. Roccat then rounds it out with that gorgeous honeycomb RGB lighting on the left and right buttons.
