I decided to embrace 2025 and finally go wireless with my mouse game. What a mistake. I just burnt 90 minutes searching high and low, trying (and failing) to make a decision. My stream of consciousness for the last 90 mins went a bit like this:

• How are there so many options?
• Will this work with my mac or not?
• Will it make me install some horrible software?
• Just what is DPI and Hz and why should I care?
• Consensus is Bluetooth mice are still laggy and crap
• Wow mice are really boring
• Why are there girl mice?
• Fuck, these are so expensive!
• Reading mouse reviews how do you make an unreliable mouse?
• Most of these products are the same
• Of course there is a Reddit for mice
• The more money you spend the more buttons you get… unless it’s by Apple… then you get no buttons
• Maybe I should just buy the Apple mouse

From my 90 minutes of experience, I can surmise the market for mice in 2025 is oversaturated with expensive product that has little differentiation and doesn’t know how to sell mice to people who aren’t mice nerds.
