Wired vs Wireless Gaming Mouse Latency - Final Answer! 

New upload on gaming channel also! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MT6cQINQWoo.html

This is an absolutely brilliant video, man. Very impressive stuff.

So that 0.3ms is the reason I'm missing my headshots. Thanks man, great to know

I'm from brazil and your channel is straight to the point, easy to understand. Here is difficult to have access to this type of content, so i usually look for foreign channels, your channel is one of the best i have ever seen. Easy to understand content has a large audience outside the country of origin. Congratulations.

This is some high quality content.

Dude, that's precisely the content we want: Clear methodology, clear results, no bulls**t. Kudos!

This guy makes one of the best videos, straight to the point, easy to understand without unnecessary "filler" talk. Thank you for that! :D

I’m so happy you didn’t waste 18-30minutes of my life to tell me this answer. Good work on testing and just spelling it out clearly. Wish every RU-vidr just did this.

The amount of information packed into under 7 mins here is wild. such a good video.

Your videos are so damn thorough. You address the main concerns of the general audience, and then go beyond into the really technical side and manage to explain it in a digestible way. I was impressed with the quality of your videos when I found your channel last year, but you just keep getting better. Thanks for your videos Ali, I hope you never stop!

Ahhh yes, some optimum tech to finish the day

I'm still amazed that this video is under 7 minutes long. Information density at this level on RU-vid is remarkably rare.

Been rocking the G305 for over a year now and I absolutely love it. I have tried the viper ultimate and viper mini and they feel snappier but the g305 just fit my hand better which makes it a lot more comfortable to use for quick movements and extended use without feeling fatigued. Always go for size and shape that fit your hand over specs and features.

Excellent video and everything was explained nicely. The first thing I did when I connected my Model O wireless to my PC was to set the debounce time to 0ms. Immediately it felt faster than any my wired mice I was using before.

This is SUCH an awesome video breakdown! Awesome job dude!! Not sure how you managed to consolidate such a detail-rich video essay into 7minutes. This is phenomenal! Great job!

This man solving gamer's problems ONE VIDEO AT A TIME.😁

Maybe you could test cheap wired vs cheap wireless mice as a follow-up? Perhaps at the low end there is a latency difference between them

love how you handle those type of videos and make them not to complicated. keep on your style and much love from germany.

superlight master race let’s goooo

Great video, although the differences are small they are measurable. I’ve done similar tests and the problems with the wireless stuff is that the latency isn’t consistent depending on battery level and sometimes just complete randomness!!!! If “really good” is good enough then enjoy the comfort of your higher end wireless stuff.

Wasn’t expecting this video. Great stuff!Also my Viper Mini is coming tomorrow!

Well, I had no idea the debounce setting existed on the glorious mouse, so thank you for that!

Super good content, would love to see more mice tested like this. Especially interested in how the Vaxee mice perform!

Fantastic video, always making great analyzes of actually sought after information, keep up the amazing work Ali

For me an adjustable amount of force you have to put on the trigger would be a nice option. I've tested countless gaming mice and they all need the power of a sledgehammer to klick the button. With the Cherry MW 2400 i randomly stumbled over, i found a mouse with a astonishing force/precision/cost ratio.

Your content gets better and better, it's now at the absolute top compared to other channels in my opinion. You use the tools you have way more purposefully compared to other channels to get straightforward results. And your aesthetics are just on point.

great video and a very professional and scientific approach to this test. I bought a viper ultimate around a year back and have always wondered how true the claim on the box was about 25% faster than the next wireless mouse so its cool to see I didnt get lied to

Wow, just perfect. Can't imagine this video being any better, props!

Your choice of music doesn't get enough preise imo so here it is, great choice of music as always!

I never consistently watch videos from a single channel, but every video here is interesting and well done

Finally, a very good video on the subject. Nice and compact and straight to the point while still giving all necessary information -> Subscribed now.

Awesome video ! Really wanted a pwnage custom but I think I’ll just wait for a bit and stick with my Viper mini for the time being .

Man if you did a podcast that would be some damn good content. Keep up the great work

Thank you so much for testing this stuff, I've been going nuts trying to find proper latency analysis for some of these mice.

both the analysis and the quality of video + post production are prime. thank you.

Great video. Can you also do a test for the new Razer Orochi V2 please? I'm sure there are tons of people out there who would like to know this as well. Again thanks for this video.

Waiting for your review on the Orochi V2

Great video, would be cool if you would make a keyboard latency test video as well

This is great content, would you consider doing something similar for 2.4GHz keyboards? I would love to see a chart with latency figures for some 60-65% 2.4GHz keyboards out there

Good stuff as always. You should do one for different types of keyboard mechanical switches and optical switches.

Hi Ali there is a difference! I was just looking at this issue and came across a RU-vid tester doing the same! Thanks for your hard work. I bought the viper ultimate due to this latency.

Ali, you seem to be favored by the YT algo Gods! Keep up what you are doing. Of course, I really like your content. Love from India!

Awesome video glad to hear this about wireless mice since i can never see myself going back to wired i love my Model O wireless and cant wait to pick up the Model D Wireless

I main’d my viper mini because it felt so much more responsive than my Aerox 3 in all games and now I know by how much. Great video!!

I veered away from a wireless mouse for a long time because I was afraid of inconsistency and signal loss. Wireless mice feel smoother and I'm going to try one soon.

Wow, I'm even happier with my G Pro Superlight, I truly like it a lot :) Thanks for the test man

Really good video Ali, very interesting. I personally don't use wireless mice, as I don't really want to have to charge peripherals and don't use my pc away from my desk.

Great video, thank you Ali. Btw when is your review of the Loque Raw S1 coming?

The work you put in is always really impressive.

Hey do you think you could make a review of the Pwnage symm 2 when it comes out? Also if you do make a review for it, it would be very helpful if you included a latency test to see if pwnage improved it all. Since that would make a big difference if it is a great mouse or not.

This channel needs more subs. Impressive and cohesive work!

Amazing stuff, would really like you to do this testing on new final mouse once they ship.

I experienced something completely different when testing my Model O Wireless on wired vs wireless mode. I used the 960 FPS camera on my phone to record 3 mouse clicks on wired and wireless mode respectively. The monitor I used is 360hz so frame latency is negligible. The mouse was also set to 0ms debounce. With the wire plugged in, I experienced just 1 frame of lag each of the 3 times. But when I had the mouse on wireless mode, there were 10 frames of lag each of the 3 times.

This is such an amazing video and technology that Nvidia has developed. The fact that the software can detect audio vs a hardwire "connection" with no delay difference is insane.

Exactly the kind of test I was looking for. Thank you!

I love your videos. Always straight up, calming voice, informative af

Ali, your content has always been a cut above, but this; scientific method, statistics, everything. Keep doing what you do man, brilliant to watch. Glad you're almost at 500k (and getting the recognition you deserve).

love the details, so happy I'm bad at games so I would have missed latency or not :)

Really appreciated for comparing MANY gaming mice, while also keeping it simple and really easy to follow. And big respect for comparing cordless mice connected to the PC with cable ;P Thanks for the video!

Ohh good to know! Gonna change my Model O Wireless settings when I get home from work. 🙌🏼

Keyboard latency next please! GMMK Pro, wired customs, aviator cables vs USB-C, Logitech Wireless, etc.

Much better than RJN's absolutely unscientific uncontrolled latency testing.

I just love how I search for something and this channel always pops up with exactly what I wanted to see/know :D

An interesting thing about debounce that I have discovered while researching it for the GMMK Pro is that there are two major methods of doing it. The first is what (I think) Glorious is doing, deferred debounce. In this setup, the mouse or keyboard waits until after the debounce time is up to send the click/key press. This is less prone to errors, but, obviously, slower since it is waiting. Then there is eager debounce where it sends the click/key press as soon as it first registers it but then ignores subsequent clicks/presses for the specified debounce time. As you might imagine, that's better for gaming as there is no delay. Since lowering the debounce time on the MOW also lowers the click latency, we can assume that a) it's using deferred debounce and b) the actual latency of the mouse and transmitter are quite low. If they simply switch to eager debounce, it will perform very well regardless of debounce time. This also suggests that the Pwnage mouse is already using eager debounce but just has really bad latency since changing the debounce had no effect on latency. Either that or the setting is just broken.

I tested the latency of my G Pro when clicking the subscribe button. I'm happy to say that it performed as expected

I've been a big advocate of wired mice, but when I saw the Orochi V2 I decided to get it. It actually looks so dope.

Easy to understand, straightforward, quality content. It’s everything that viewers could asked for.

lol his video is awesome! I'm so glad you did this test. I have a model O and I didn't even know about this debounce time.

There's more to latency than click latency. Most wireless mice still have sensor delay, however it is very minimal on high end wireless mice like the GPW. On the other hand wireless mice based on the 3335 sensor show a noticeable delay when you initiate motion, but that delay reduces when the motion speeds up. So the delay is inconsistent.

If he was a tech professor, I would take all the classes he lectures.

This is such a great video, I only wish the G-wolves Hati S was in this list as I switch back and forth between that and the viper mini. Both are small and lightweight mice great for fingertip and claw.

This is such a good and helpful video. I watched it over 4 times in 4 months and I found that you rly clarified everything we have to know.

I think mouse movement latency is far more important than click latency. It would be great to know what mice perform better wireless or wired

When recommendation is faster than notification

Thank you for the debounce time stuff with the mow imma go do it rn

thanks for the debounce tip. I just applied it on my mow didnt know it was a thing before watching this video

I was worried when I saw my Model O wireless show so low in the list. Thanks to you my debounce is now set to zero. Instant sub!

im not even an FPS gamer but optimum tech, gotta watch

Very informative video thank you. I just bought an Alienware 610M for my new gaming PC. Benefit here I guess is that its both wired and wirelss

Thanks for these tests !

Is the click latency the same or higher than the "movement" latency in a wireless mouse?

I now appreciste my Viper Mini even more.

Outstanding! Doing the reviews the community needs:)

Thanks man, really needed this information.

This type of video is exactly why people like me love this channel lol

Looks like Ali is taking up Rocket Jump Ninja's mantle. :bigbosssalute:

Great content. Did you think of including the Razer Viper 8K in this test methodology to see the results you get the more you increase polling rate past 1000hz?

Hey Ali, great video! I had a question on your plugged in vs wireless data. You only showed data of two mice (Logitech G pro and Glorious MOW), which already have great wireless performance, therefore you might not expect a big difference in latency between plugged-in and wireless. Did you also check this difference in wireless mice with more latency such as the Aerox 3 wireless? Thanks!

I trust this guy over linus for everything lmao

Ali's partner: "He's probably thinking about other girls" Ali: "I wonder if I can use use audio to test mouse latency" Ps. Absolutely thrilling video. Will be referencing this to my friends that still somehow believe wired is superior 🤣

Great video, awesome job 👍 I was wondering if you could make a video about wireless keyboards latency as well? I am very interested in the results and struggle to find relevant data on the webz, compared with mice which are a covered a lot. Specially since I think most of us with sff pcs are using 60 or 65 or similar percentage keyboards, they are oftenlty wireless as well but I still use mine wired being afraid of latency ( for example I use a kemove 61).

Great vid man very interesting. My hesitation with wireless is moreso concerns with movement latency rather than click latency. Is there a video about that on the horizon? 🤔

Wired is always faster, because it's a stable connection

no reason to not go wireless at this point.

Amazing review! Does the model d- wireless perform the same as a model o wireless? Thank you!

this is sucha good video, i am so proud of being subscribed !

Good shit. Transparent reliable methodology. Most of the other reviewers are slacking hard going on "I didn't feel any lag" 😂

very interesting, look forward to looking at this testing in future reviews. Also the Finalmouse can be adjusted to 1000hz via DM1 Pro S software. I wonder what the UL2/FinalMouse does in 1000hz?

Really informative stuff, thanks for always delivering quality content! o/

Still glad I snagged a GPxSL yesterday, so far loving it -even at it's price.
