Awesome Mouse

PC maker and shooter enthusiast Optimum continues to refine his 3D-printed shell mod for the Razer Viper V2 Pro. Fully assembled, the Zeromouse v35 kit weighs just 26g. If he used a custom PCB instead and removed all the unnecessary buttons and the scroll wheel, the mouse slims even further, down to 16g. That’s as light as a tablespoon of sugar.

The Lofree Touch has retro looks but modern tech under its hood. Its scroll wheel is flanked by keycap-style buttons, and its shell comes in two shades of old-school computer beige: Tofu and Block w/orange. The buttons and palm cover can be swapped out with theme kits. The mouse can connect to up to four devices at once and supports USB, 2.4GHz, and Bluetooth.

Fumi Games’ FPS combines the black-and-white, rubber hose animation style of 1930s cartoons with high-intensity action. Think Cuphead meets Serious Sam. It doesn’t drop until 2025, but this early gameplay footage is promising. Add it to your Steam wishlist today. In case you’re wondering, Mickey’s Steamboat Willie look loses copyright protection in 2024.

We use a Keychron mechanical keyboard every day, and its build quality is unparalleled. We expect the same from their M3 Mini metal wireless mouse, which features with a skeletonized magnesium shell. Its 4000 Hz polling sensor ensures speed and accuracy up to 26,000 DPI, and it supports 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB wired connectivity.

The vast majority of computer mice are made out of cheap plastic. Artist Uri Tuchman wanted to create something with a bit more substance, so he took the electronics out of a mouse and painstakingly crafted a new enclosure out of brass then engraved it with an ornate filigree pattern.

If you’re like us, you’re faster and more accurate using a mouse than a trackpad. Venatron’s Magnito lets you carry a mouse wherever you go by magnetically attaching to laptops and tablets. The mouse has Bluetooth wireless connectivity and a slimline, ambidextrous design. It also doubles as a remote for presentations.

Do you suck at first-person shooters? Kamal Carter might have the solution. He built a servo-controlled robotic rig that moves a mouse exactly where targets are by scanning the screen for specific colors. It cheats quite well in the FPS trainer AimLab, but it’ll need more work to be accurate in a real game.

This bumpy computer mouse from HedgeHog Health is designed to provide kids with learning challenges like ASD or ADHD with physical stimulation. But one look at the colorful and tactile surface of these pointing devices, and we want one of them on our desk too. Pre-orders start shipping in December 2020.

The Zephyr is a premium gaming mouse with a difference. Its open cage structure provides access to a built-in adjustable speed cooling fan, keeping palms dry and sweat-free during frenzied fragging sessions. It’s accurate too, with a 16,000 DPI resolution, and programmable RGB lighting with dynamic animations.

After building himself a rustic keyboard from wood, builder of things The Q decided to make a matching mouse. He started out with a hunk of nice hardwood, copied the shape of a plastic mouse onto it, then got to work cutting it down, sculpting its form, then carving out its center to make room for its mechanism.

Using a regular computer mouse every day can lead to repetitive strain injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome.

GlassOuse is a Bluetooth pointing device for people who have difficulty using their hands. It connects to devices just like a regular Bluetooth mouse. The original version has a bite switch; v1.2 lets users choose between a bite switch, a button or a puff switch.

Simone Giertz and William Osman teamed up to do something stupid and silly. They took Simone’s goofy Citicar and turned it into a giant computer mouse. Driving and steering controls the cursor, while honking the horn is a click. It totally sucks, but that’s what we expected.

Most gaming mice are packed with buttons and scroll wheels. But the Lexip takes a different approach. It has two joysticks – one inside that you control by tilting the mouse itself, and one outside to be used with your thumb. A left-handed version is also available.
