This is one of the very latest Razer mice to hit the market, so it's sporting all the latest tech. The Focus Pro 30K sensor is a blinder in here, with Gen 3 Optical switches offering up an incredibly satisfying clunk with every shot. Everything works together to create a seamless experience no matter the game. We tested across everything from Halo Infinite to Planet Coaster and the Cobra Pro felt great every time. The best Razer sensor is the Focus+ Optical sensor, featured on the Razer Basilisk V3, Razer Viper 8KHz, Razer Viper Ultimate, Razer Basilisk Ultimate, Razer DeathAdder V2, Razer Basilisk V2, Razer Naga Pro, Razer Naga Left-Handed, and Razer DeathAdder V2 Pro. Which Razer gaming mice are available?

The unnamed "gaming-grade" sensor within the G203 offers a DPI range of 200-8,000, which should prove more than enough for all but the most colossal of 4K monitors—at which point you might want to turn to something with a little more grandeur than the G203. The sensor is more than suitable for decent and consistent gaming and turns up a clean sheet in mouse sensor tests. Interestingly (and most evidently) there's now an interchangeable thumb button with a little lip that can be rotated. I assume for use with larger or smaller hands, though hand positioning could also be a factor, or perhaps aimed more at fingertip grippers. All of that coming at such a low price is well worth taking note of. In fact, we actually enjoyed the grip tape included with the Mini version far more than the standard grippy surface of the main release, and the sweat absorbent design was much appreciated as well. We also noted that the smaller size meant Razer's snappy switches felt all the more tactile underhand - whereas the full-sized device can feel a little mushy.The latest Razer gaming mouse is the Cobra Pro, however you'll find recent release history just below. The G305 uses Logitech's Hero sensor, an iteration of the fantastic sensor Logitech's best mouses, from the classic G502 down to the G Pro X Superlight. It can last more than 200 hours on a single AA battery (which helps keep the cost down vs. being rechargeable).

The best wired gaming mouse, on the other hand, is the Razer DeathAdder V2. It's a classic design that has stood the test of time, and now that the V3 has launched you can find the older model for a bargain price. The Deathadder V3 Pro has now taken point as the best wireless gaming mouse. Even the Naga Pro Wireless has been somewhat replaced by the Naga V2 Pro Wireless, it's so much cheaper by comparison. That's why we're still keen on the older version, so long as it stays as budget-friendly as it is today.

Comparing the G502 X to my absolute favourite gaming mouse, the Logitech G502 Lightspeed, I've spotted some subtle differences that might not seem like much, but do affect the overall experience. A greenish-blue light turns on as all the prototypes become holographic, save for one in the center. With the Logitech G305 Lightspeed, Logitech has created a high-performance wireless gaming mouse that doesn't cost the earth. Its mid-range price has it competing against some great wired mice, but there's no compromise in performance or design.

Angle snapping, also called prediction, takes data from a mouse sensor and modifies the output to create smoother movements. For example, if you try to draw a horizontal line with your mouse, it won’t be perfect—you’ll make some subtle curves in the line, especially at higher sensitivities. Angle snapping smooths out those curves and gives you a straight line instead. This is generally bad because it means your cursor movements won’t match your hand’s movements 1:1, and angle snapping will not be useful in most games. Thankfully, almost all gaming mice have angle snapping disabled by default.Finally, the ‘Power’ tab provides a few power saving features for when you would like the mouse to enter sleep mode, and when it should enable the power saving mode depending on the battery percentage you select. Historically the answer was always: no. The wireless connection, though convenient, was used to add extra latency to the connection compared with a wired cable, which meant input lag in games was 'a a thing'. For reference, that is also seen as a 'very bad thing' in competitive online games. The mouse floats high above the arena, pulling all electrical power from the environment into itself, causing the arena to go dark once again. The process for hunting down the best Razer mouse is the same as it is for any brand. These pointers are brought into our daily work and play schedules, and lived with far beyond our initial testing sessions. That means we can see exactly how each device holds up in an everyday use scenario while also keeping tabs on the longevity of those features.

The screen glitches as the mouse now rests atop a high-tech weighing scale in a white futuristic lab. At first glance Logitech's G502 X gaming mouse may not appear much different to its predecessors, but look a little closer and you'll notice some useful revisions, in particular for FPS players. While there's no change to the already improved G502 Hero 25k sensor, there are some impressive ergonomic enhancements to note, along with customisability, and weight improvements to boot.The overall design of Naga Pro stays close to the Naga Trinity it replaced but has gained a bit of weight to accommodate the new tech. The Naga Pro is 7mm wider and heavier than the Trinity at 117g, but thanks to the 100% PTFE feet, it glides smoothly across most surfaces. The bigger mouse also takes some getting used to; requiring my long hands to adopt a full palm grip. But the contoured mouse buttons and a rest for my ring finger make it easier to hold onto. Textured rubber grips for the thumb and pinky also help.
