Best Gaming Mouse 2019

The Logitech G502 is a one-of-a-kind alien spaceship. I mean, gaming mouse. In our reviews, it leaves every other gaming mouse in the dust with very little competition. The Logitech G502 comes with a surface tuning calibration that will allow for optimal performance across any mouse pad. This is essential in keeping some money in your pocket. Another very cool feature with this gaming mouse, is that it comes with extra weights that are simple add ons, to the bottom of the Logitech G502.

The Logitech G502 gaming mouse comes with on-the-fly DPI changing. With the Logitech Gaming software available to you, you are capable of setting up to five different profiles. For me personally, I like to switch to a quicker sensitivity on my gaming mouse when browsing the internet; there’s no need for 400 DPI on the desktop. As a rule of thumb, if you’re playing games competitively, you will want to set your gaming mouse in the 400-800 DPI range. This will provide you with the most consistency when gaming. However, if you’re the rebellious type, the Logitech G502 gaming mouse is capable of anywhere from the 200-12,000 DPI range. It comes equipped with a button directly underneath the mouse wheel that allows for a quick change in DPI if you’re playing a sniper role where you need even less DPI than normal.

Our favorite feature on this mouse, is one that we aren’t too familiar with in other gaming mouses. The mouse wheel comes equipped with the ability to click it left, or right as extra buttons. Simply assign keys to the buttons through the Logitech Gaming software, and you have an extra two buttons. While on the topic of buttons, The Logitech G502 gaming mouse has 11 programmable buttons while maintaining comfort, unlike the famous Razer Naga gaming mouse.

I expect some of you will say “BUT, BUT, BUT, you can’t have 15,000 DPI?”. Let us explain something to you. Gaming mouses that advertise that are advertising to the people that like big numbers. It isn’t practical. If you are gaming at a high level, even 3200 DPI is a bit excessive. We highly recommend 400-800 DPI when gaming for the most consistent shots, and movements needed when playing competitively. The ZOWIE ZA11 gaming mouse comes with an industry standard 125/500/1000hz polling rate.

One of the cons of this gaming mouse, is that the sensor can be a bit phishy occasionally. Generally, it is only because there is a hair or a piece of dust in the gaming mouse’s sensor. So, if this occurs, make sure you clean out the sensor and you will likely be back to normal. Also, when buying the ZOWIE ZA11 gaming mouse, we recommend purchasing a ZOWIE-GSR gaming mouse pad as they work wonderfully together. Get on the pros level with the ZOWIE ZA11 gaming mouse.

Unlike it’s big brother, the Logitech G502, the Logitech G403 gaming mouse hits hard in a few different departments. Personally, I owned this before purchasing the G502. I was on a budget, and this is very likely the best gaming mouse for it’s price point. The sleek, comfortable, and ergonomic design of the gaming mouse is aimed towards players that enjoy palm-ing their mouses. If you’re interested in clawing your mouse, I highly recommend against the Logitech G403 as it is very thick, and will not be comfortable.

The Logitech G403 gaming mouse is simple, yet complex. It comes with six programmable buttons through the Logitech Gaming software.

The Razer Naga Chroma MMO gaming mouse is exactly what it sounds like, a mmo gaming mouse. Look at that picture. Imagine all of the hotkeys you have access to with just your thumb. Personally, I have found myself running out of comfortable hotkeys when playing a game such as WoW. When using the Razer Naga gaming mouse, I find myself having access to so many more comfortable keybindings, that I can finally key bind my toys to annoy my guild members!

This gaming mouse is capable of producing a DPI upwards of 16,000. Probably not practical, even for a game such as WoW, or Final Fantasy, but to each their own. As mentioned prior, the gaming mouse comes equipped with 19 fully programmable buttons through Razer Synapse. Surprisingly, the amount of buttons on your thumb isn’t uncomfortable at all. Comparatively, it feels as if you’re resting your left-hand fingers on the keyboard. The gaming mouse is ergonomic, making sure your palm is firmly on the mouse for maximum effectiveness. Alternatively, the Razer Naga Chroma gaming mouse is also very good with a MOBA, such as League of Legends, or DOTA 2. Easier skill shots, means more kills. More kills, means more wins.

The Corsair Scimitar MMO gaming mouse is the Razer Naga’s biggest competitor. Most people have a love-hate relationship with one or the other. Like the naga, the Corsair Scimitar gaming mouse comes equipped with 12 fully optimized mechanical, and programmable buttons where your thumb rests. It has textures on the second, and fourth column of buttons on the gaming mouse allowing you to more easily recognize, by feel, where your thumb is resting. We like to compare it to resting your left-hand on WASD.

Corsair is generally known for having a very solid product, which is where the extra price comes into play in comparison to the naga. The Corsair Scimitar doesn’t feel cheap, and respectively so.
