Wired Mouse

Our range of ergonomic wired mice, designed to help alleviate muscle pain, is ideal for people who use their computers for long hours at once.

An ergonomic wired mouse helps stop finger contortions by encouraging your hand to remain in a healthy, neutral position. Your productivity levels will increase as you'll remain comfortable for hours on end.

A huge advantage to using a corded mouse over a wireless mouse is not worrying about charging it. Wired mice are recommended if your work duties take place mostly in a fixed position throughout the day. An ergonomic wired mouse is compatible with most Mac and Windows computers, but read the product description to make sure your mouse is compatible with your operating system.

At Ergolink, we stock right-handed, left-handed, and ambidextrous mice, giving you a range of options that suit you best from an ergonomic standpoint. If you wish to try our wired mice before buying, visit our Perth showroom and speak to one of our trusted experts. Or, shop online - we can deliver anywhere in Australia.

Wired Mouse FAQs

Is a wired mouse better than a wireless one?

In some situations, a wired mouse is a better fit, particularly for people who demand fast response and accuracy. It is especially true in most gaming circles where reliability and response times are essential considerations. In some cases, wired mice have features that haven’t made it to wireless mice due to physical constraints or difficulty in implementing the technology.

What are the benefits of a wired mouse?

Convenience

Connecting an ergonomic wired mouse to your computer is a quick and simple process due to its plug-and-play nature. Most wired mice plug into a USB port, enabling most computers to accommodate the connection. Moreover, those that do not have native integration will most probably have dongles and adaptors that will expand the available ports. In addition, mouse wired do not require batteries or a separate wireless receiver, making them a great choice for people who need a no-fuss, practical mouse.

Response times

Even though the best dedicated wired and wireless gaming mice can have similar speeds, the mass-market consumer models from popular brands tend to favour wired mice when it comes to input lag and responsiveness. Compared to Bluetooth-enabled wireless mice, wired mice have a direct cable connection and the signal is less prone to disruptions.

Weight

For some people, the weight of the mouse is vital because it can create fatigue with long-term use. Since wired mice don't have a battery, they are significantly lighter than their wireless counterparts. Some high-end models are so light that the weight is almost negligible, even with prolonged use.

Price

Although the price of a wireless mouse is often higher than its wired counterpart, the price difference has started to narrow as the technology becomes more affordable. However, high-spec gaming mice and specialised ergonomic mice are still considerably cheaper when you look at comparable products.

Does a standard wired mouse need batteries or charging?

A wired mouse plugs directly into a computer port and, in most cases, a USB port. This means that there is no need for external batteries or charging. The device obtains power directly from your host device, with the cord also allowing for input signals to pass through uninterrupted.

Can I buy a wired mouse with detachable cables?

Yes! Although they are not common, several manufacturers sell wired mice where you can swap out the cords. This is useful, especially for people needing longer cords. Do note that these mice are more wireless than wired because they often have in-built batteries, with the option to connect the mouse via a cord in case the batteries are low on charge.
