FAQ

What is a computer mouse?

A computer mouse is an input device used to interact with your computer's graphical user interface. It typically has buttons (left and right) and a scroll wheel to help navigate and perform tasks on the screen.

What is an ergonomic mouse?

An ergonomic mouse is designed to reduce hand and wrist strain by promoting a more natural hand position. These mice are ideal for long periods of use, as they help prevent repetitive strain injuries (RSIs).

What’s the difference between a wired and wireless mouse?

A wired mouse connects directly to the computer via a cable, providing a stable, lag-free connection. A wireless mouse uses Bluetooth or a USB receiver to connect, offering more freedom and a cleaner workspace but may require batteries or charging.

What is DPI, and why does it matter?

DPI (dots per inch) measures the sensitivity of a mouse. Higher DPI allows for faster, more precise movement of the cursor on screen. A mouse with adjustable DPI lets you switch between different sensitivity levels, offering more control for various tasks.
