The Best Gaming Mice 2022

Unlike consoles, which include their controller for enjoying the best titles, if you're playing on a PC, there are certain essential peripherals. One of them is the mouse. A good gaming mouse can offer us a series of competitive advantages. In this guide, we analyze what to consider when choosing a good mouse.

DPI

The term DPI (dots per inch) refers to the maximum speed of the pointer's movement on the screen in relation to the movement of our hand. The higher the DPI, the less you'll have to move the mouse to make the cursor move across the screen.

Typically, the DPI in gaming mice is configurable, allowing you to customize this aspect according to your preferences.

Configuration Options

Apart from the technology and maximum DPI it can reach, configuration is one of the most important factors when choosing a gaming mouse.

The number and layout of the configurable elements in a gaming mouse are the distinguishing factors compared to a standard mouse, which is limited in customization.

In addition to allowing DPI adjustments, you'll also find a series of buttons to program actions and shortcuts according to your needs, but they can also offer features like lighting.

There are different models regarding design, texture, size, and weight. Some models include a weight system to adjust it as you see fit.

Wired or Wireless?

Previously, if we sought a good gaming experience, we had to lean towards a wired model, as wireless technology was not up to speed. Nowadays, it is possible for wireless mice to offer the best experience. Acquiring a wireless mouse will be more costly compared to wired ones.
