The best left-handed mouse you can buy in 2020

Recommended Posts

Looking for the best left-handed mouse can be difficult, as even in 2020, many mouse makers seem to neglect southpaws and churn out loads of right-handed mice, and hardly any for lefties.

This can be incredibly frustrating, as the humble mouse is one of the most important peripherals we use when interacting with our computers. For creatives, it's especially important to find a mouse that's comfortable to use, and for left-handed people, that can sometimes be a struggle.

This is where our guide to the best left-handed mice can help. We've collected the best mice for left-handed users, and listed them right here, so you can easily find the best one for your needs. 

Not all of these mice are designed just for lefties. Many of them are ambidextrous in design, so they can be comfortably used in any hand, and you'll still be able to reach every button. You'll notice that some mice on this page come with plenty of additional buttons. These can be configured to help speed up your workflow, and help you be even more productive. Of course, we also have left-handed mice that favour simplicity, and so still with that tried-and-tested two-button design. 

For more ambidextrous options, take a look at our main buying guide to the best mouse in 2020.

Left-handed mouse: the best options available now

Logitech G903 Left

The Logitech G903 is a wireless gaming mouse that does it all. Thanks to 11 programmable buttons and up to 12,000 DPI of accuracy, this left-handed mouse offers more than most could even use. The mechanical button tensioning (which gives you physical feedback through the button clicks) lets you personalise it exactly. Even more useful are the five profiles you can switch between – adjust settings like sensitivity and button uses to enable you to hop between designing, browsing, and gaming uses. Wireless charging using the PowerPlay mat is another great feature that makes that 32-hour battery life even less of a worry. You can leave the lighting on, lowering battery to 24-hours of use, without worry.

SteelSeries Sensei Ten


If you're after a left-handed gaming mouse, then your options are limited, but the good news is that many mouse makers are now embracing ambidextrous designs, which means their mice are comfortable to use for both left- and right-handed people. SteelSeries is one of those manufacturers, and the Sensei Ten combines a left-hand-friendly design with a brilliant sensor that makes it fast and accurate to use. There's loads of customisation options, and it comes with a Tilt Tracking feature, which keeps tracking your movements even when you’re lifting your mouse and putting it back down at tilted angles.


Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600


The Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 is the best left-handed mouse for people on a budget. It's compact and affordable, but crucially, it's well built as well. It's ideal for people who travel a lot and want a dependable wireless mouse that they can easily carry around.

Its ambidextrous design means it's a great choice for left-handed users as well. Microsoft has a formidable reputation when it comes to peripherals, and the Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 is a great example of this.

Mad Catz Rat 1

The Mad Catz Rat 1 is a wired mouse that's impressive to look at but somehow remains low in price. The quirky aesthetic is functional too, as the design means the mouse can be adjusted to fit any hand for perfect ergonomic comfort. There are only three buttons, but that keeps this mouse light for travel (it can even be split to make it more compact). With multiple colour options and a very low price, this is a tough mouse to beat.  

SteelSeries Sensei 310 Left

The SteelSeries Sensei 310 is a mouse built for gamers, meaning it’s crammed full of useful tech that designers and general users alike can benefit from. A whopping 12,000 DPI capability makes this super-sensitive (if you have it set to that high level). An ARM 32-bit processor – once a dream even for smartphones – helps compute all this data so you end up with the smoothest end result, which is what it’s all about really, isn’t it?

Evoluent VerticalMouse 4

The Evoluent VerticalMouse 4 has gone through many generations since it first appeared in 2002, and it's still going strong. The ergonomic design keeps your wrist from twisting thereby creating maximum comfort and promising long-term wrist health. The optical sensor and pointer are adjustable and buttons are available for fingers and thumbs (there are six in total). This mouse isn't cheap, but as a designer it's worth shelling out a bit more if it means keeping your wrist and hands happy.
