The 5 Best Mice For MacBook Pro - Summer 2020
Mouse Reviews

The best mouse for MacBook Pro with a wireless connection that we've tested to date is the Apple Magic Mouse 2. Apple's mouse is explicitly made to work with their computers and connects via Bluetooth, eliminating the need for any dongles or USB receivers. Its fairly unique design does away with any noticeable buttons or wheels, and the entire top of the mouse is a touch-sensitive surface, allowing you to mimic the touch gestures that you use with your MacBook's trackpad.

It looks and feels very premium and well-built, and is made of a mix of metal and acrylic. It's fairly lightweight, and its low profile allows it to easily slide into most laptop bags and cases. Since the entire touch surface is used for scrolling, it allows for both vertical as well as horizontal scrolling, which can be helpful when editing videos or working on large spreadsheets.

Unfortunately, its performance isn't great, and it has fairly high latency and CPI. That being said, you can change the sensitivity within your MacBook's settings, and the click latency likely won't be noticeable with everyday, casual use. Due to its low back, it's also designed for a fingertip grip and might be uncomfortable during long periods. Overall, if you want a portable wireless mouse for your MacBook that maintains the touch gestures you've gotten used to, this is a good option.

The best mouse for MacBook Pro for gaming that we've tested so far is the Corsair HARPOON RGB Wireless. The click latency is so low, even over Bluetooth, that competitive gamers shouldn't notice delays with any type of game. Because of this, you won't have to worry about buying additional receivers or dongles for the mouse. The design also allows for any hand size to use a claw grip comfortably. It's also very lightweight and its battery can be recharged via USB.

It has excellent performance and also has a wide adjustable CPI range. It comes with companion software which you can install directly onto any Mac computer. From here, you can adjust the RGB lighting settings and reprogram all six of its buttons, which you'll want to do if you plan on using it for MMOs. It can be paired with its USB receiver for desktop use and paired with a laptop over Bluetooth, allowing for quick and easy use.

However, it may not feel the most comfortable for gamers looking to play for extended periods due to its small design. A more comfortable alternative would be the Logitech G Pro Wireless, but its software doesn't work with macOS, and it doesn't have Bluetooth support. That said, the Corsair is small enough to easily toss into your laptop bag and provides a very good gaming performance.

If you're looking for a mouse to use with your Mac but don't want to break the bank, check out the Logitech Pebble M350. This mouse has a very low profile and small form factor, which makes it easy to slide it in a laptop bag, but isn't the most comfortable design to use for hours at a time.

This wireless-only Bluetooth mouse can be paired directly to your Mac without the need for any receivers or dongles. The on/off switch is positioned on the bottom of the mouse, and there's also a button to switch between connection types. It's a similar shape and size to the Apple Magic Mouse 2 but comes in a wider variety of colors. However, while it feels like it should be sturdy enough for regular use, it's made of cheap plastic and feels fairly flimsy overall. It also doesn't have its own companion software, so you can't make any changes to its buttons or performance.

It doesn't have any extra buttons, and its mouse wheel doesn't support horizontal scrolling or left/right tilt clicks. Overall, while this mouse doesn't feel as premium or high-end as some other options on this list, it provides decent value given its budget price point, and its small size and Bluetooth connection make it great for taking with you on-the-go.
