1. Logitech G Pro X Superlight Wireless
At just 63 g, this is among the lightest on the market, but the bodywork is not full of holes, so it looks stylish instead of fragile. There’s no RGB, but you score the top-rated Hero 25 600 DPI sensor and a rechargeable battery that lasts 70 hours. R2 500
2. Razer DeathAdder V2 X Hyperspeed
This model, with its hourglass shape, high-performance sensor and long battery life is the most highly decorated gaming mouse ever. This affordable version uses a basic 14 000 DPI sensor, but adds two more buttons under the index finger. R1 200
3. Logitech G502 X
This model is one of the icons of the PC gaming world, sporting a unique 10-button layout and a two-mode scroll wheel. This more affordable corded variation shaves the weight down to 89 g and drops all the RGB bling, but you gain superb hybrid optical switches and a highly advanced 25 600 DPI sensor. R1 500
4. Mountain Makalu 67
This lightweight mouse weighs a mere 67 g, but the ribbed structure of the body shell feels far more durable than competing lightweight models. The highly sophisticated PAW 3370 sensor tops out at 19 000 DPI and a five-step resolution switch has indicator lights, useful in the heat of battle. R1 300
5. Asus TUF M4 Air
Bragging rights for the lightest gaming mouse on your block are yours with this featherweight, wraith-like 47 g model. There’s barely anything left of the body shell, so it does feel a little fragile, and it’s not cordless, but it does glide effortlessly. The sensor does a respectable 16 000 DPI. R 820
