What factors should I consider when buying a mouse?
When buying a mouse, what kind of mouse do you need to disassemble? Bian Xiao concluded that there are five points worthy of our consideration.
use
When buying a mouse, you must first understand your own needs. You must understand what you bought the mouse for. To sum up, Bian Xiao basically has two purposes: office or games.
After knowing your own needs, it will be much easier to buy a mouse and the purpose will be clear.
price
Very easy to understand. After all, everyone's budget is different and they don't want to waste money. It is best to choose a cheap mouse.
feel
First of all, Bian Xiao wants to talk to you about "mouse hand".
"Mouse hand" is mainly a disease caused by the compression of wrist nerve, which is mainly manifested as wrist pain and hand numbness and weakness.
It is very common for office workers. This is an occupational disease. Facing the computer for a long time, a layer of dead skin and mouse cocoon will accumulate on your wrist, and sometimes you will feel sore and even feel powerless.
It can be seen that the feel of the mouse is very important. Here, Bian Xiao wants to mention another concept "ergonomics".
Ergonomics, in short, is to make the use of tools as suitable as possible for the natural form of the human body.
Like the popular ergonomic keyboards and ergonomic chairs, of course, ergonomic mice are also essential. Bian Xiao will also be introduced separately and recommended below. Let me make an understanding here first.
Therefore, when choosing a mouse, we must proceed from the comfort of the palm and use it comfortably.
perform
Although the mouse is so small, it has many parameters. But many people don't know what these parameters mean, right?
The following two points are the main parameters that affect mouse performance.
refresh rate
Also known as the rate of return, it refers to the number of images that a mouse can process and collect in one second, usually in "FPS/S", that is, "frames per second", and also in Hz.
The higher the refresh rate, the higher the accuracy of the mouse. At present, the refresh rate of e-sports mouse is only 1000Hz.
resolution ratio
Also known as the sampling rate of the mouse, it is used to reflect the sensitivity of the mouse. It is mainly expressed by DPI, and of course there will be CPI. In fact, there is no difference between the two.
Theoretically, the higher the dpi, the higher the sensitivity of the mouse, but not the higher the better, depending on the display. If the dpi is too high, it is difficult to control. Basically, 400dpi can meet daily needs. Some mice with more than 2,000 dpi are mainly used to cooperate with large-screen displays. These businesses say that the high DPI is actually just a gimmick.
function
Nowadays, many mice have other buttons besides the left and right buttons, mainly for the convenience of game e-sports. Of course, they even bring their own cushions to increase comfort. It depends on your personal preference. After all, the function of each mouse is different, so you should choose it according to your own needs.
What are the classifications of mice?
There are many kinds of mouse now, but in Bian Xiao's eyes, they are mainly divided into two categories: mechanical mouse and modern photoelectric mouse.
Mechanical mouse
For the mechanical mouse, it is an old mouse synonym, and now it has been basically eliminated. The main feature is a "trackball" at the bottom. It is estimated that it is difficult to buy in the market, and some special lovers can use it as a collection.
Modern photoelectric mouse
For the modern photoelectric mouse, it is the mainstream mouse now, basically 99% are of this type, which can be divided into photoelectric mouse and laser mouse according to the working mode.
The two are very easy to distinguish. Optical mouse needs to rely on mouse pad, but laser mouse doesn't.
It can be seen that the surface compatibility of laser mouse is better, so the help of mouse pad is basically not needed.
optical mouse
Picture is the working principle of photoelectric mouse, which mainly relies on light-emitting diodes to detect actions.
Advantages:
(1) has low cost and high cost performance.
(2) Long service life.
Disadvantages:
(1) requires a mouse pad.
2) Laser mouse
It is actually a photoelectric mouse, but it uses a laser instead of an ordinary LED light.
Advantages:
(1) No mouse pad, suitable for most surfaces.
(2) High accuracy.
Disadvantages:
(1) high price
(2) short service life
(3) easy to shake
Laser mouse is also prone to cursor jitter, because too accurate will collect some useless information, such as invisible bumps and depressions on the surface.
If the jitter is too obvious, Bian Xiao suggested adding a mouse pad.
wireless mouse
With the development of science and technology, the mouse is naturally more and more advanced, and the wireless mouse came into being. In our daily life, please use wires to restrain it, which is also very convenient to carry.
Advantages and disadvantages of wireless mouse
About the advantages and disadvantages of wireless mouse, we still need to know about it, so as to understand what our needs are.
Advantages:
Not as comfortable as wire, and easy to use.
Easy to carry.
Disadvantages:
1) needs to be recharged, which has strong endurance, and some batteries need to be replaced, which will increase the subsequent use cost.
2) It is susceptible to external interference, resulting in occasional failure.
3) It will be easier to lose.
Generally speaking, wireless mouse is suitable for daily office and not recommended for games.
There are several points to note here in Bian Xiao.
If batteries are used, it is recommended to use weakly alkaline ones.
Turn off the mouse in time when it is not in use, thus prolonging the service life.
The use range is limited.
Clean it regularly.
Ergonomic mouse
The birth of this type of mouse is actually to solve the "mouse hand" problem of modern people. Experimental data prove that holding the mouse vertically can minimize the injury to the wrist.
Ergonomic design is mainly to minimize the degree of physical and mental fatigue when used for a long time and try to avoid the symptoms of muscle strain.
Benefits: You can avoid "mouse hand". The disadvantage is that the price will be a little more expensive.
According to scientific evidence, an ergonomic mouse with an inclination of 33-70 degrees has a certain anti-mouse hand effect.
Recommend the most cost-effective mouse according to the purpose.
Everyone buys a mouse for different purposes. Bian Xiao will recommend a mouse for everyone according to several requirements here.
1, daily office
Usually using a computer is basically surfing the internet, writing Word and doing PPT. In Bian Xiao's eyes, high face value is natural, light and convenient. It's best to put it in your pocket wirelessly and take it away. Of course, it would be better if there is still a mute effect during use.
1) INPHIC) PM9 price 35.9
Simple and fashionable appearance, multiple color choices and high value. The mute setting of the left and right keys makes your work not affect others. And the endurance is very strong, and it can be used for several months on a single charge.
