We discover in this guide the best mice that we can buy for the PC based on the technology and the needs of the users: in this way we will find the perfect mouse for every occasion.
Types of mice
In this part of the guide we will show you the technologies currently used for the operation of the types of mouse:The optical mouse uses the reflection of an LED light to monitor movement on a flat surface (almost any surface works well, except overly bright ones that don't reflect the light beam well). Optical mice use optoelectronic sensors that function like small, low-resolution cameras. If there is a change in the illuminated surface, the processor inside the mouse will trace its path and update the position of the cursor on the screen. The optical mouse consumes little power because the image they illuminate is very small, less than an inch wide for most models.
I mouse laser they work in the same way only if the light is a laser, therefore with a much higher level of accuracy in the reading (even if a specific surface is required to work correctly). Laser mice work the same way, except that instead of emitting light, they emit infrared radio waves. They are much more accurate due to the ability to capture images at higher resolutions. Resolution on all mice is measured in "dots per inch" (DPI) (Pixels are irrelevant since scanned surfaces have no pixels). Optical mice cost less than laser mice and work well for basic tasks while laser mice are more expensive and are recommended for those working on photo retouching and graphics programs that require maximum precision.
Types of connections for the mouse
In addition to technology, we must also take into account the type of connection we make between the mouse and the PC, so that we can also choose based on tastes and specific needs:- Cable: the classic connection via USB cable, the safest and fastest. Connect the cable to a free USB port and the mouse is immediately ready for use. Obviously we will have to take into account the size of the wire on the desk and choose a model with a cable long enough for our needs (less than one meter if we use the notebook, over 2 meters if we use the fixed PC).
- wireless: the most desired technology when it comes to mice! The device connects wirelessly to a USB receiver placed on the PC, and communicates with it every movement of the mouse, without getting in the way of the wire. Obviously the downside is where to charge the mouse batteries periodically in order not to have delays or real interruptions in the use of the mouse, without underestimating the possible interference with similar wireless technologies (WiFi, microwaves, antennas etc.).
- Bluetooth: this type of connection is not very common, but it can present itself as a good alternative to the classic wireless connection, especially if the support is Bluetooth 4.0 or higher.
