A good mouse makes laptop living so much easier — and it's essential if you're a gamer. But too often we don't realize the difference the right mouse can make. I know firsthand what a great mouse can do. And one of my favorite models happens to be on sale right now for $15 off the normal price.

With more than 7,000 five-star reviews, the G305 Lightspeed ergonomic gaming mouse is more than just a thing of beauty. It's an ergonomic smart tool that elevates both work and play. Not a gamer? That’s OK! You can still enjoy the comfort and capabilities of the G305 Lightspeed.

The G305 Lightspeed is wireless, so you don’t have to worry about cords cluttering up your desk; just plug the included dongle into your computer and you’re good to go. The button in the middle lets you adjust the dpi — how fast your cursor moves across the screen — which is helpful if you’ve ever found a mouse too sluggish or skittish. This beloved accessory runs 250 hours on a single AA battery, so you don’t have to stress about charging it all the time.

This mouse has earned a ton of raves on Amazon. One gamer called it a “gorgeous, elegant mouse you won't regret having,” pointing out that it feels comfortable in the hand and doesn’t demand a lot of force. Another reviewer calls it “perfection in a mouse ... functionally, this mouse is the best I've owned." They continued, "[It's] faster than a wired connection and tracks perfectly ... ergonomics are wonderful on this as well, and I feel as though it'd fit just about any person."

A shopper with smaller hands actually ordered a number of options in search of the best mouse and said of the G305, "This one is by far my favorite. Small, light, great battery life, amazing shape, and the button presses just feel 'right' all around."

You can grab the G305 right now for 20% off in a number of colors, including blue, mint and lilac.
