The M185 is a compact ambidextrous wireless mouse that connects over 2.4GHz through a tiny USB receiver, so it is plug-and-play on Windows, Mac or Chromebook. Its contoured shape sits nicely in either hand, 1000 DPI optical tracking keeps the cursor steady, and a smart sleep mode stretches the battery to around a year on one AA. It is a reliable, fuss-free upgrade over a touchpad. A 4.5 rating from over 125,000 buyers backs it up. Check the current price on Amazon.

How it compares in Accessories
Across the 28 rated accessories products we track, the typical score is 4.6 out of 5. This one sits at 4.5, which is in the bottom quarter of the category. That does not make it a bad buy, but there are better-rated alternatives on the same shelf, so it needs another reason to earn your money.
It carries 125,892 ratings against a category median of 27,397. A rating from a large base is harder to distort and tends to hold up over time, so a high score here means more than the same score on a new listing.
On price it sits in the middle third of a category running from £3.88 to £42.40, where the midpoint is about £9.89. That is the part of the range where most sensible buys sit, neither cutting corners nor paying for the name.
