This category covers computer mice for office work, gaming and travel, as well as mouse pads to go with them. Our range includes wired, wireless and Bluetooth mice from brands such as Logitech, Lenovo, Razer, Dell and ASUS. With more than 2,700 products, it suits home users as well as businesses that need many identical mice.
How to choose a mouse and mouse pad
Connection type. A wired mouse with a USB Type-A plug needs no batteries or charging, so it suits a desktop PC well. Our range has many mice with an RF wireless receiver and some Bluetooth models, while a number support several methods at once, for example RF, Bluetooth and USB Type-C. A Bluetooth mouse does not occupy a USB port, which matters on a slim laptop.
Shape and handedness. Most models are symmetrical and suit either hand, others are shaped for right-handed users, and left-handed mice are few, so use the filter to find them. If you spend hours at the computer, choose a mouse you can hold firmly with your whole palm. A vertical ergonomic mouse can reduce strain on the wrist.
Sensor. Most mice in our range use an optical sensor, which is plenty for office and home use. Laser mice are less common, and some of them cope better with glossy surfaces. For gaming, a higher resolution (DPI) and accurate tracking during fast movements matter more.
Buttons and scroll wheel. Three buttons and a wheel are enough for basic work, but most mice in our range have six buttons, and the extra ones make browsing back and forth easy. Gaming mice often have seven or more programmable buttons. There are also models with a ball or touch surface instead of a wheel.
Mouse pad size. A small pad is enough for the office, as long as the whole movement of the mouse fits on it. Gamers who swing their arm quickly should choose a larger cloth pad, and those who type or click for long periods will appreciate a wrist rest.

Frequently asked questions
Which mouse is best for office work?
An optical wireless or wired mouse with three to six buttons is usually enough for the office. The most important thing is that it sits comfortably in your hand, since you will use it for hours. If you travel often, choose a Bluetooth model that does not need a USB receiver.
Is a wireless mouse good enough for gaming?
Yes, many modern wireless gaming mice have very low latency. A wired mouse still has no battery to charge or replace. For competitive games, choose a model sold for gaming and look for a fast RF connection rather than basic Bluetooth.
What is the difference between an optical and a laser mouse?
An optical mouse tracks movement using LED-lit surface images, while a laser mouse uses a laser. A laser mouse can work better on glossy or uneven surfaces in some cases. For everyday work and gaming, a good optical mouse is usually enough.
What size of mouse pad should I choose?
Choose one large enough for your whole mouse movement without the mouse slipping off the edge. A small or medium pad suits the office, while a large one that also covers the keyboard is better for gaming, especially at low sensitivity. The surface matters too: cloth gives more control, and a smooth pad lets the mouse glide more easily.
