XScroll Optical Black is perhaps the most common office mouse. This simple black left-handed or right-handed model has a minimum sensor resolution of 400 units. In their reviews, buyers note high reliability and a pleasant shape, thanks to which the user forgets what he has in his hands.

Cursor control is equally great wherever you are - computer desk, rug, floor or knee, the mouse feels great everywhere. Able to withstand drops on many surfaces, including asphalt.

Another office model that tries to appear playful. Teflon legs and a 2400 dpi sensor are more than enough for office work. The side buttons are a pleasure to work with while searching for information on the Internet and switch between tabs with their help.

The side surfaces are made of matte plastic, and the top is made of glossy, which gives rise to the problem of glare and reflection on the case. The lower part is made in a lattice style, like the side. This technology helps the mouse not to slip on the surface, it is comfortable to hold in the hand and additionally ventilate the space between the palm and the case, preventing the formation of moisture.

Extremely simple and reliable budget mouse for work at home and in the office. Its shape is universal and it is equally well suited for both right-handers and left-handers. Its main advantage is considered to be high impact resistance and it is recommended to use it in places with high traffic - computer classes, stands, etc. The weight is only 95 grams, and the number of buttons is 3, all of which are non-programmable.

Supplied in plain packaging. Connects via standard USB 2.0. Supports all operating systems on Windows and Mac OS. All drivers are installed automatically.The sensor resolution is only 800 dpi, and the rodent itself is painted in a simple black and gray color scheme.

An affordable and ergonomic mouse with a design that is comfortable for both right and left hands. This is the main advantage of the model, although the working functions are also at their best - the sensor works fine on many surfaces, the connection to a PC via USB, the keys do not make loud noise, and buyers have no complaints about the build quality. In a word - Swiss quality.

Reviews for this wired mouse speak of smooth sensor operation, comfortable ergonomics, quiet operation of the buttons and the ability to choose from several colors, although black is the most popular. As for the negative, some users lack additional buttons, because there are only two, plus a wheel. In addition, it is noted that the right key makes noise a little louder than the left. The disadvantages of many include a short stroke of clicks, which will have to get used to.

A truly legendary wired mouse deservedly takes first place in this section of our top. This optical LED model for the right hand has become a favorite of gamers and just office workers for its unpretentiousness, rich functionality and low price. Some models last 7 years or more. Of the main controls on the case, there are 2 additional keys, a double click and a button for switching operating modes. Of all 7 buttons, 6 pieces are programmable.

If we talk about the appearance, then it is minimalistic. The black color is diluted with the orange color of the double click, and there is an X7 sticker on the case itself. However, the X-710MK is still sold by many stores to this day and has an endless number of colors, including themed ones. Thus, the buyer can find a model for his aesthetic tastes and enjoy driving for a long period of time.

Inexpensive optical LED manipulator without frills. With only three buttons, the design of the mouse is extremely simplified, while making it comfortable. For games, it is not suitable - the functionality is small, but for routine work in the office or surfing at home on the Internet, that's it.

The symmetrical design is equally well suited for right-handers and left-handers. The declared working radius is up to 10 meters. In fact, 2-3 meters and the cursor stops being read normally, and the charge is consumed in 1-2 weeks. Frequent problems with operation.

Inexpensive and reliable "rodent" for undemanding buyers. Stability and convenience come by default with the product. The signal does not lose, it lies well in the hand.It has an average resolution of 1000 dpi for its segment. You won't be able to draw or work with graphics with it, but otherwise it does its job.

The autonomy is also pleasing - a year without changing the battery is not a joke, which greatly reduces the cost of purchasing power modules. Unstable on paper and glass.

Pleasant appearance, stylish minimalism and stable operation - this is a short list of the advantages of a computer mouse from an eminent Chinese manufacturer. Work is done from a finger-type battery for about two to three weeks with intensive work. There are no slides or slips of the cursor during operation. On the back side there is a switch with a color indicator for convenience.

The cover is easy to remove and clean, while actively collecting fingerprints, dust and dirt. The USB module is installed inside the case, and before turning it on for the first time, it must be very carefully pulled out and inserted into the computer so as not to damage the signal module. On the side there is one additional key.

Laser six-button mouse with an unusual design. It lies comfortably in the hand, practically it is not felt in it due to the convenient shape and minimum weight (only 68 grams). A resolution of 1000 dpi allows you to work in most programs comfortably even on large monitors.

Advantages and disadvantages:

• Low noise level. You can't call this mouse 100% silent, but its click is not as loud as other conventional models.
• Successful body. The mouse not only looks stylish.It fits perfectly in almost any hand. From below, instead of standard legs, there is a frame, which makes the model even more stable on any surface.
• Batteries are often included in the package.
• The disadvantage is the unusual arrangement of additional buttons - one on each side of the mouse. Using the key under the little finger may not be very convenient.

This LED mouse is the best to work with if the user has more than one computer. It is able to connect to three PCs or laptops via Bluetooth at once. The kit comes with a standard USB-receiver for radio connection. A nice addition is a comfortable shape for the right hand, which will reduce the load on the wrist.

The resolution is small for a mouse of this class - 1000 dpi. But it is enough for everything that you may need for work. The model has 8 buttons. Of these, one is responsible for switching computers (only three options), another one is for turning on the ultra-fast scrolling mode of the wheel.

Advantages and disadvantages:

• Functional wheel. It has two additional modes of operation in addition to the standard "step by step" scrolling - horizontal and ultra-fast vertical scrolling.
• Able to connect to anything that has Bluetooth. Only iOS devices are not supported, and everything else works flawlessly.
• Most buttons can be programmed for any action. To do this, you need a special application Logitech Options.
• The disadvantage (and for some, dignity) is too active power saving mode. Can turn off the mouse after a couple of tens of seconds of inactivity.To get started, you will have to click the button or move the mouse a little. The bonus of this behavior is saving batteries.

Expensive, but extremely comfortable computer mouse with advanced functionality, which is useful if your office deals with graphics. A key feature of the ergonomic design is the presence of an additional scroll wheel under the thumb, which has several modes of operation. Connection to a PC is wireless, there are programmable buttons, and the shape of the case is sharpened for a comfortable palm grip. The optical sensor provides sensitivity adjustment in the range from 200 to 4000 dpi, i.e. in free time, the mouse can be used as a gaming mouse, plus it will show itself perfectly on monitors with a large diagonal.

According to reviews, the pluses of the model include the smoothness of the scroll wheels, ease of setup, a large selection of additional keys and high energy efficiency - the battery lasts up to 70 days. There is also a negative, in particular, the buttons here are not silent, the bottom keys are located far from the fingers, and there is no place in the case for a Bluetooth adapter.

Expensive and proprietary mouse for work and play from Razer. It can rightfully be considered the best mouse for work, but the price bites a lot. Otherwise, it's a great device that fits comfortably in the hand with a weight of 66 grams. It can be connected both via Bluetooth channel and via dongle via USB.

Of the 6 buttons, 5 are programmable and they are all configurable. The driver is installed automatically after connection, disks and other media are not needed. The downside is the "heavy" software with a volume of 210 megabytes for calibrating the device. You will also have to break your head when installing batteries. There is no backlight, and the clicks themselves are too loud even for Razer.

Lightness, lightness and more lightness. Weighing just 66 grams, this mouse is one of the lightest on the market. This can be considered a plus and a minus, since the buyer simultaneously receives ease of control and an instant fall from the table if accidentally touched.

Batteries will last for 3-4 months with 9-10 hours of daily use. Sensor resolution of 1000 dpi is average. There are only 3 buttons, but you don't need more. The package includes AA batteries for the first months of use.

This mouse is one of the most unusually shaped controllers in the world and more closely resembles the trackball that it essentially is.This did not affect the ergonomics in any way, and it feels great in the human wrist. All the main load at the same time falls on the joints. Management is carried out by a ball-manipulator. There are 2 angles for hand position and both are comfortable. In total, there are 8 keys on the case and all of them are programmable. There is a hardware mode for increasing sensitivity and response.

Wireless optical mouse ideal for Windows. The model can be called really ergonomic. She fits comfortably in the hand, forcing her to be not down with her palm to the table, but, as it were, diagonally. Thumb notch allows you to hold the mouse with maximum comfort. The standard resolution is 1000 dpi, which is quite enough for work. There are additional buttons - "Back" and "Start".

• There is a horizontal scroll bar and an extra start button which is perfect for Windows users. If it is not needed, it can be reprogrammed through a utility like X-Mouse Button Control for any action.
• The sensor is able to recognize almost any surface, except for glass. But the mouse works best on a mousepad.
• The disadvantage is that it will take a long time to get used to this shape of the mouse. There is no pinky rest, so textured rugs can get rubbing blisters. But in the future, its use will unload the wrist and exclude its "computer" diseases.

Compact, lightweight and quiet computer mouse for office or home work. It is in high demand in Russian stores, offers an ergonomic shape and good functionality, including adjustment of the optical sensor, as well as additional buttons. In addition, the model is inexpensive, but at the same time wireless and does not “eat up” batteries as actively as many competitors.

The abundance of negative reviews on this model is not recorded. The positive aspects of the mouse include the correspondence of its cost to the build quality and reliability in operation, very quiet clicks, the function of quickly changing the sensitivity of the optical sensor, and the presence of batteries in the package. Among the minuses, we highlight the design orientation for use only with the right hand, the possible “falling off” of the wireless connection, as well as the shortened case length, which not all buyers like.

Another inexpensive miracle of technology from Logitech with noise reduction and a smooth wheel. Ergonomically shaped with thumb protrusion, it has a positive effect on control, making it pleasant.All working components are made in such a way as not to create any noise at all, you click the keys or simply scroll through the pages with the wheel. The optics do not “reflect” and do not hurt the eyes during operation.

Another plus is the extremely high battery life, which is 24 months. If you do not use it, it will automatically go into sleep mode. The wireless connection turned out to be very reliable, the connection diameter is up to 10 meters.

Inexpensive computer mouse with a symmetrical shape for both hands. It has a completely ergonomic design, but the main thing is the silent operation of the buttons. An added benefit is wireless connectivity and a sensor with improved positioning for smooth cursor movement. Works on two radio channels, i.e. it is possible to simultaneously control two devices with quick switching between them using a separate button.

In positive reviews, buyers note the lowest possible noise level, design convenience, build quality and sensor performance on any surface. The reliability of the wireless connection is also a plus. Now for the cons. First, the package does not include batteries. Secondly, the mouse does not connect to older Mac models. Thirdly, the sensitivity of the sensor is regulated only through proprietary software.

Comfortable and functional LED mouse with a pleasant soft-touch coating, able to work very quietly.Designed to connect with multiple computers at once - supports up to two PCs or laptops. Connects via Bluetooth or USB receiver. The resolution is comfortable, 1000 dpi.

There are seven buttons on the case (if you count with switching horizontal scrolling). A special key under the wheel is responsible for connecting to one or a second PC. There are two programmable buttons on the side via Logitech Options.

Advantages and disadvantages:

• Extended functionality. Able to connect via Bluetooth to two computers at once, which is very convenient. You can even transfer small files from one PC to another with it! There is horizontal scrolling and additional keys on the case.
• Convenient body. Dimensions and weight are well suited for long work at the computer - the hand will get tired less.
• The disadvantage is the switching of horizontal scrolling, the side buttons and the key for switching between PC click noticeably louder than the main ones and the wheel.

Unusual silent mouse from the popular Apple brand. It has an ergonomic body, is available in several colors, is wireless and easy to use. The main technological feature is a multi-touch touch panel instead of the usual buttons, which ensures absolute noiselessness of operation. Another important nuance is a high-quality lithium-ion battery with fast charging, providing up to 30 days of autonomous operation. The elegant design is an added bonus.

In terms of customer reviews, the mouse is praised for its unusual functionality that fully reveals itself in the Apple ecosystem, but is also suitable for Windows.Also, the pluses include the build quality, the stability of the connection with the PC, and even the pleasant smell of plastic, incomparable with the Chinese "flavors". A fly in the ointment is brought by the need to get used to the gesture control, the biting price, the inability to simultaneously press the right and left buttons, plus the surface is too easily soiled.
