Top 10 Best Gaming Mice for 2025

10. Logitech G Prox Super Light 2 Decks

The Logitech G Prox Super Light 2 Decks is a follow-up to one of the top mice on the market. This ergonomic release weighs under 60 grams and can go down to about 58 grams if you remove the bottom puck. It features the same internals as last year's Super Light 2, with a Hero 2 sensor that returns up to 32,000 DPI. Thanks to a recent GHUB update, the mouse can now reach up to 8K Hz polling, and it uses hybrid LightForce Optical-mechanical switches that feel better than last year's model. The battery lasts for about 95 hours, but Logitech still needs to improve the glide of their skates. Despite not being groundbreaking, this mouse continues the popular Super Light lineup and is available in white, pink, and black for $160.


9. Ninjutso Sora V2

The Ninjutso Sora V2 is a small, symmetrical mouse that's slightly smaller than the original Sora. It's designed for claw grippers and is similar in size to the VX CR1 and OP1. The mouse comes with two sets of PTFE skates, allowing you to choose the surface area that suits you best. The shell is made of polycarbonate with a natural grip, and it's available in black, white, and pink. The Sora V2 weighs 39 grams without skates and is one of the lighter mice on this list. It features an Omron Optical switch with a PixArt 3395 sensor, capable of up to 26,000 DPI and 1K Hz polling out of the box. While it can reach 8K Hz with a separate dongle, the marketing around this feature was lackluster. Despite this, the Sora V2 is a good mouse at $100.


8. Skyrock V8

The Skyrock V8 is a standout release from a brand that emerged in August. This mouse is similar in shape to the Pulsar X2H lineup, combining the X2H and X2H Mini for a medium-to-smaller mouse. It's available in bright yellow, black, and white. The V8 weighs 39.2 grams and comes with two sets of PTFE skates, allowing for customization right out of the box. It features a PixArt 3950 sensor, capable of up to 30,000 DPI, and an 8K Hz polling receiver. Priced at $70, the Skyrock V8 offers great value and has received positive community feedback.


7. VXI E1

The VXI E1 is a top pick for ergonomic mice. Based on the popular Zi EC2 shape, this mouse prioritizes solid builds and premium feel over the lightest weight. It weighs 60 grams and features Juano mechanical switches, which offer quick rebound, light clicks, and excellent tactile feedback. The E1 is available in six colors and has a 4K Hz polling rate out of the box. While it's priced at $140, it's a solid choice for those looking for a high-quality ergonomic mouse.


6. Lambu Maya X

The Lambu Maya X is a medium-to-large mouse that's comfortable for various hand sizes and grip styles. It features a grippy coating, Omron Optical switches, and a well-thought-out design with an open base to reduce weight. The Maya X weighs around 40 grams and has a PixArt 3395 sensor, capable of up to 26,000 DPI and 1K Hz polling. The side buttons are well-implemented, and the mouse comes with extra skates, skins, stickers, and a travel bag. Priced at $100, the Maya X is a great option for those looking for a high-quality gaming mouse.


5. Lambu Fanatic Maya 8K

The Lambu Fanatic Maya 8K is a special edition of the Maya mouse, featuring an 8K Hz polling rate out of the box. This smaller symmetrical mouse is available in a bright orange colorway and includes all the extras of the regular Maya model. It weighs around 40 grams and has a PixArt 3395 sensor, capable of up to 26,000 DPI. The Fanatic Maya 8K is priced at $120 and is a great option for those who want a lightweight, high-polling-rate mouse.


4. Endgame Gear OP18

The Endgame Gear OP18 is a wired mouse that offers great value. This limited edition model features a unique chalky grip and weighs 53 grams. It has hot-swappable switches, allowing you to easily swap out different switch PCBs without soldering. The OP18 uses a PixArt 3950 sensor, capable of up to 30,000 DPI and 8K Hz polling. The paracord cable has an angled stress relief, reducing drag on your desk. Priced at $70, the OP18 is a great option for those who prefer wired mice.


3. Razer Death Adder V3 HyperSpeed

The Razer Death Adder V3 HyperSpeed is a smaller, lighter version of the popular Death Adder lineup. Weighing in at 54 grams, it features a Focus X sensor with up to 26,000 DPI and 1K Hz polling. For those who want 8K Hz polling, a separate hyper-polling dongle is required. The Death Adder V3 HyperSpeed uses the same Gen 3 Optical switches as the V3 Pro and charges over USB-C. Priced at $70, it's a solid pick for those looking for a high-quality ergonomic mouse.


2. Hit Scan Hyperlite

The Hit Scan Hyperlite is a lightweight wireless mouse that's been a favorite since its release in October. Weighing 40 grams, it features a PixArt 3395 sensor, capable of up to 26,000 DPI and 1K Hz polling. An 8K Hz polling receiver is available for an additional $25. The Hyperlite uses Omron Optical switches and has excellent build quality with zero button wobbling. The coating is grippy, even in cold weather, making it a complete package. Priced at $100, the Hyperlite is a standout option for those looking for a lightweight, high-quality mouse.


1. Razer Viper V3 Pro

The Razer Viper V3 Pro is the best gaming mouse of 2024. Weighing 54 grams, it features a Focus Pro 35k Gen 2 sensor, capable of up to 35,000 DPI and 8K Hz polling. The Viper V3 Pro uses the same Gen 3 Optical switches as the V3 Pro and charges over USB-C. It's the only mouse from 2024 that's already cracked the top five in the Esports scene, sitting at number two as the most used mouse by pro players. Priced at $100, the Viper V3 Pro is a top pick for its industry-leading tech and dominance in the gaming scene.
