The Best Wireless Gaming Mouse
Five gaming mice compared, from the E-YOOSO X-31 to the M810 PRO, with the trade-offs of each named.
By Alex Morgan, PC Hardware Editor
12 min read5 products evaluated

Wireless gaming mice now match wired ones over a 2.4GHz dongle, so the choice comes down to price, battery and shape. These are ordered from the lowest listed price up.
This is a research roundup, not a lab test: programmable buttons, max DPI and battery life come from each maker's published specs; a missing programmable buttons is flagged, not filled in, and no figure here comes from our own testing.

Our Picks
Most Buttons1 of 5
E-YOOSO X-31 Large Wireless Mouse
E-YOOSO's X-31 is a large 2.4GHz mouse with forward and back buttons.
Best for
- Macros and editing shortcuts.
Skip if
- Look at the other picks if you need a feature not covered above.
Why we like it
It is shaped for large hands, with an anti-sweat, non-slip finish. Five DPI steps run up to 4,800, and the receiver stores inside the mouse. It works with Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS, though the side buttons do not work on Mac.
The receiver reaches about 33 feet. The large contoured shell uses an anti-slip, anti-sweat material suited to big hands. It also comes with a selectable 125Hz or 250Hz polling rate and the lowest price among the large mice here.
The nearest alternative on button count is the M725 at 5, against 6 here. It undercut the Redragon large and every other pick on price at the time of writing.

Why we like it
It pairs with three Bluetooth devices. It is sized for medium to large hands and connects over Bluetooth, a USB receiver or a USB-C cable. Programmable buttons can be remapped in the software.
Its 1,000mAh battery and low-power chip give long runtimes at a 1,000Hz polling rate, and DPI runs up to 12,800. RGB lighting can be adjusted. Keep the Redragon large on its dongle for games; Bluetooth is for a laptop.
When we checked, only the E-YOOSO X-31 cost less, and the Acer dual-mode cost more. If you want a confirmed button count, look to the E-YOOSO X-31 instead: it offers 6, while this one gives no figure.

How We Chose
Alex Morgan compared the manufacturer specifications, connectivity, warranty terms and compatibility of every pick. Figures come from the makers unless a third-party source is named; we did not test these products ourselves.

- How these picks were ranked
- We lined up five mice on button count, max DPI, battery life and connection from manufacturer specifications. We did not test them in-house, and button count and battery life are missing for at least one pick.
- The shared baseline
- All 5, from the E-YOOSO X-31 to the M810 PRO, state max DPI and connection.
- Where the specs have gaps
- The Redragon large, the Acer dual-mode and the M810 PRO give no button count; the E-YOOSO X-31, the Redragon large and the M725 give no battery life.
- Price range
- From the E-YOOSO X-31 to the M810 PRO, all sat in the under $50 tier when we checked.
What to Look for in a Wireless Gaming Mouse
Key buying criteria so you get the right fit the first time.

The E-YOOSO X-31 tops button count at 6 and the M725 sits lowest at 5. The E-YOOSO X-31 is the pick for button count. The Redragon large, the Acer dual-mode and the M810 PRO give no button count figure, so 2 of 5 picks are compared here.

Across these 2 picks battery life spans 40 hours (the Acer dual-mode) to 45 hours (the M810 PRO). If battery life is your first filter, the M810 PRO sets the ceiling at 45 hours. The E-YOOSO X-31, the Redragon large and the M725 give no battery life figure, so 2 of 5 picks are compared here.

The E-YOOSO X-31 tops button count at 6; the M725 follows at 5, 20% apart. The Redragon large, the Acer dual-mode and the M810 PRO don't state a button count figure, so they sit outside this comparison; 2 of 5 picks are ranked.
How does the Acer dual-mode compare with the M810 PRO on battery life?
Between the top two, it is 45 hours on the M810 PRO against 40 hours on the Acer dual-mode, a 13% difference. No battery life figure is published for the E-YOOSO X-31, the Redragon large and the M725, which leaves 2 of 5 picks ranked here.
What makes the E-YOOSO X-31 the Most Buttons?
It earns the label for the most button count here (6). The M725 is next on button count at 5, so this pick's 6 is 20% further out. It makes sense for macros and editing shortcuts.
What should I check before buying the M725?
Keep the M725 on its dongle for games; Bluetooth is for a laptop. In this guide it ranks fourth of 5, as our Symmetrical Shape pick, and second of 2 on button count (5).
Beyond the specs, what sets the E-YOOSO X-31 and the Redragon large apart?
The E-YOOSO X-31: a large body with forward and back buttons. The Redragon large: finger rests on both sides. The Acer dual-mode: a rechargeable battery.
Bottom Line
Our first pick is the E-YOOSO X-31. Look at the Redragon large for finger rests on both sides, the Acer dual-mode for a rechargeable battery and the M725 for a symmetrical shape if those matter more to you.
Check whether a mouse charges or takes AA/AAA cells; both have trade-offs in weight and upkeep.
