The Best Mouse For MacBook Pro - Winter 2021 Mice Reviews

The best wireless mouse for MacBook Pro that we’ve tested is the Apple Magic Mouse 2. This sleek and professional-looking model is specifically designed for Apple devices and has a tactile surface that mimics your MacBook Pro’s trackpad. It’s fairly lightweight and has a very slim and compact design that’s good for traveling, as it will easily fit into most laptop bags. It also connects via Bluetooth, so you don’t have to worry about a receiver or a cable, and it’s rechargeable, so no need to change the battery.

It feels remarkably solid and well-built, as it’s made out of aluminum and acrylic and has a premium feel to it. As mentioned before, the whole body acts as an easy-to-use tactile touch control that recognizes many different gestures, and you can even use it as a vertical or horizontal scroll wheel. There’s only one physical button, but you can enable it to act as both a left and right-side click.

Unfortunately, it’s only reasonably comfortable, and it's not well-suited for a traditional palm grip or a claw grip, though any hand size should be able to use it with a fingertip grip. The mouse also has a high click latency, fixed CPI setting, and low polling rate. However, this likely won't be noticeable to most people for regular, everyday use. All in all, this is a good option for traveling with your MacBook Pro, and it’s also one of the best wireless mice we’ve tested.

The best gaming mouse for MacBook Pro is the Corsair HARPOON RGB Wireless. Thanks to its compact and wireless design, it's very portable, and you should have no problem sliding it into most laptop cases. There's a bit of wobble on the L/R click buttons, but otherwise, it feels very well built. It has two buttons on its left side, as well as a scroll wheel and a CPI switch button. It's decently comfortable, and all hand sizes should be able to use it with a claw grip.

It has an excellently low click latency, and it should feel responsive whether you use it via Bluetooth, its USB receiver, or wired. It has a very high polling rate, a wide CPI range, and one of the lowest CPI variations we've tested. Through the Corsair iCUE software, which is fully compatible with macOS, you can reprogram all of its buttons and customize the RGB lighting to your liking.

Unfortunately, due to its compact size, large and extra-large hands can't use it in a palm grip, and small hands will struggle with a fingertip grip. Also, it doesn't have any on-board memory, so any custom settings you set won't save when you move to another computer. It has a very high lift-off distance, which may not be ideal for gaming. Nonetheless, it's still a great gaming mouse if you play video games on your MacBook Pro.

The Logitech Pebble M350 is the best mouse for MacBook Pro in the budget category that we've tested. This lightweight, low-profile model is great for travel since it should fit without issue in your laptop bag. Its shape makes it best suited for a fingertip grip, and it may not be comfortable with any other grip type. It comes in off-white, graphite, blue-gray, or rose, so you can match it with the color or skin of your MacBook Pro.

It's fully compatible with both Windows and macOS, which is helpful if you often switch computers. It has fantastic wireless connectivity options, letting you pair to your MacBook Pro via Bluetooth or its USB receiver. Its click latency over Bluetooth should be low enough to feel responsive during day-to-day tasks. Its click noise is very quiet, so it shouldn't bother those around you while in a noise-sensitive area.

Unfortunately, its low-profile design doesn't provide the best comfort, so you may not feel comfortable using it for long periods. While the frame feels mostly solid, the top cover feels flimsy and fragile. Also, its sensor can't be customized at all, so you can't adjust the CPI or polling rate to your liking. That said, this is still a great mouse if you're on a budget and looking for something you can slide into your laptop bag without any fuss.
