My mouse is definitely on its last legs and I’ve started watching for sales to pick up a new one. My main question is not which mouse to get, but wired or wireless?

I like the concept of wireless, but it spooks me out because I assume there will be latency or consistency issues. So I’m wondering how other people’s experience with them have been? Had any problems or a flawless experience, and if so what mouse and when?

    I used to feel that way about wireless earbuds–I’m gonna lose them. So I started with cheap ones, and trained myself to a) always carry the case and b) always put the bud back in the case directly. I went from a cheap pair to an expensive pair and haven’t ever lost an ear bud.

    In the case of dongles, most every dongle mouse has a protected cubby to put the dongle into, so if you can hold to a rule to always put the dongle in the mouse when you take it out of the computer, you’ll be fine.

    That said, I have a jar of mystery dongles in my desk.
