Wireless Mouse Suggestions?

SniperMan1 · 07-11-2008, 07:45 AM

Has anyone actually found a decent wireless mouse for gaming? If so, give me the brand, model, etc., and any pros/cons you have.

Thanks all.

Do you really NEED wireless?

IMO, wireless peripherals and gaming just don't go well together; with wired devices, you have no batteries to worry about, and they don't lose connection, get interference or go to sleep after a few seconds inactivity, all things wireless do.

If you don't really need to be wireless, don't be. Wired ALWAYS have better reliability than wireless, always will, and in an FPS, you really don't want to be mid-firefight when the batteries die.

+ wireless mouse is heavier than wired mouse (because of the batteries). Heavy mouse won't do any good for your wrist mate

I enjoyed the MX™620 Cordless Laser Mouse http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mi.../2987&cl=gb,en

but the wired MX518 gives me better results http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mi.../4259&cl=gb,en

i also recommand wire mouse

my logitech M-SBF90 ( pretty simple ) its very lightweight and accurate :P a wireless mouse alwayz need battery at worst time ex: when you're piloting, during a firefight, etc. lol.

Wireless is pretty useless for hardcore gamers like us.

The MX-1000 has 10 buttons on it to program.
It also is a laser mouse, not optical, and has a charging dock like a wireless telephone. Had one for 4 yrs. and the batteries are still going strong.
Get the RF connection one, not the bluetooth , for games.

Funny to hear some guys on voip or teamspeak shouting their mouse is dead, sucks for tank gunners.
