How to choose a wireless mouse

Not sure where to begin on your search for a new wireless mouse? First of all, consider your budget, then stick to it for the best value for you. Second of all, check out our best mouse guide and best wireless mouse guide for some deep looks at the best specific mice out there.

Next up, consider how you plan on using the wireless mouse. One of the core reasons why many people purchase a wireless mouse is for gaming. If that’s the case, you need to consider how advanced the laser or optical sensor is so that it’s speedy enough to keep up with your reactions. Not sure what we mean by laser and optical? Don’t worry, we’ve explained all in our optical vs. laser guide so it’ll make sense. The main thing to know is that you shouldn’t scrimp on how quickly your mouse reacts, otherwise your gaming performance will suffer. For a gaming mouse, it’s worth checking out potential customization options, too, and whether the mouse has plenty of buttons that you can reprogram. Both Razer and Logitech offer great gaming mouse options.

For an everyday-use mouse, it depends on how you plan on using it. An ergonomic mouse is good for regular use with the Logitech MX Master 3 a pretty good bet. If you just need something basic though for occasional use, you can pay a lot less for a mouse. Alternatively, if you plan on traveling or commuting frequently with it, consider the Microsoft Surface Mobile Mouse which offers both portability and comfort.

Of course, let’s not forget the battery life, either. If you’re buying a mouse, you need to consider if it has a rechargeable battery, or if it used regular batteries that you can replace. We always prefer rechargeable batteries, which last longer and means you don’t need to keep buying batteries.

Finally, when it comes to a wireless mouse that molds into your hand, don’t forget to check if it works for left-handed or right-handed users. Some wireless mice are ambidextrous which solves that issue but you need to check before hitting the buy button.

How much should you spend on a wireless mouse?

The price you pay for a wireless mouse during Cyber Week boils down to what you want to use it for. A simple, no-frills mouse for everyday computer use can be very affordable, and you can get a good general-purpose one for $20 or $30.

Prices rise a bit when you start getting a bit more niche. Gaming-focused mice, for example, usually start at around $50 and can go over $150. That’s because they come with a range of features designed to enhance gameplay, such as ultra-precise sensors and extra programmable buttons. Likewise, mice that are designed for productivity and power users in mind can go over $100 thanks to their specially designed features.

Finally, there is the option of going for an ergonomic mouse. These are designed to be held in a more comfortable manner than regular mice in order to reduce strain on your hand. They do not need to cost a huge amount, but make sure you read reviews first — you do not want to buy a cheap ergonomic mouse that does not actually help alleviate strain.

Are any wireless mouse deals too good to be true?

With so many deals, it is inevitable that some are better than others. Some retailers use Cyber Week as an excuse to get rid of old and outdated stock that they otherwise struggle to sell. That means you should always do your research beforehand — read reviews and check specs to ensure any product you see on sale actually meets your needs. You don’t want to get drawn in by a huge discount, only to find out the device is hopelessly outdated and doesn’t do what you need it to.

Another thing to be aware of is the range of high-pressure tactics used by some online shops. You might see a countdown timer warning you there isn’t long left to make your purchase. Other places issue warnings that other shoppers have already added your item to their baskets. Whatever tactics are used, it’s important not to panic — if a deal isn’t right for you, the number of other people looking at it is totally irrelevant. Do your research and you will be in a good place to find a great deal.

More BLUETTI Black Friday deals for home power backup and more — Save over $200

Continuing coverage of BLUETTI Black Friday deals, including one of its latest portable power stations the Elite 200 V2, we have a few more callouts worth taking a look at. Where before the main focus was home battery backup or a solid portable power option for off-grid, these deals are smaller in scope. The BLUETTI AC180 solar portable power station, for instance, features a 1,152-watt-hour capacity, which is not nearly as massive as what you get with the Elite 200 V2, but that's the point. It's manageable, has 11 outlets to power multiple devices simultaneously, and has a built-in MPPT charge controller and 500-watt solar input for fast charging via solar. It's best for use on the go or on the road, just like the BLUETTI Charger 1.

Enough about the gear, let's talk about those deal prices. As an aside, right now you can use code DT01 for an extra 5% discount on top of all sale prices. That code is exclusive to Digital Trends readers and applicable to all products on BLUETTI's website.

Something I love to do, every chance I get, is to share my experiences with select products, especially on deal posts and sales features. Why? Because that gives people a much better idea of what they can expect if they were to take advantage of those offers. For better or worse, you gain something, and that's precisely what I plan to do with BLUETTI's latest Elite 200 V2 portable power station. You see, I happen to have one in my possession which I acquired recently. And a good thing, too, with all of the hurricanes that have been hitting our area -- I live near Tampa, Florida.

Thanks to BLUETTI Black Friday deals and discounts, that have just dropped, there are several power stations on sale, including the Elite 200 V2. It's a 2,600-watt and 2,073.6-watt-hour power station, which is frankly a massive capacity for something this size, that can power up to nine devices simultaneously -- I've tested that too. Understandably, you probably care more about the prices and discounts so let's get into it.
