How did we choose this ranking?
This is an editorial selection based on official specifications, not hands-on testing by ARM.NET. We consider sensor, weight, power and reference price. Shape and grip require trying the mouse yourself; higher polling rates also place more demand on your PC. Battery and performance figures come from manufacturers and depend on their test conditions. The ranking is a guide, not a universal result.
