Our Verdict
Logitech Lift
Keychron M5
The Logitech Lift and the Keychron M5 are wireless vertical mice. While the Logitech is designed primarily for productivity, the Keychron is designed for both productivity and gaming. As such, it delivers outstanding raw performance that's suitable for gaming in any genre or competitive level, while the Logitech is only suitable for casual gaming. The Logitech has a smaller overall shape, but both mice are well-suited for a fairly wide range of hand sizes. The Keychron has a second scroll wheel on its left side for horizontal scrolling.
