Gone are the days when we use a mouse with a physical ball under it. This is because when you're out to buy a peripheral mouse nowadays you'd only have to choose between an optical or a laser one. But for those who couldn't seem to fully grasp how these two differ, check out our quick guide on whether an optical or laser mouse should be the right tool for you. When talking about a specific mouse, we always hear the term DPI. DPI DPI or dots per inch measures the sensitivity of the mouse. In addition, it is useful for high-resolution displays like Full HD or UHD screens (with Dell just launching a slew of 4K and 5K resolution monitors) since the mouse will be sensitive enough to go end-to-end the screen, even when using multiple displays, without having to move your mouse across the entire table. So does this mean a mouse with higher dpi is automatically better than that with lower dots per inch count? In contrast to using high-resolution displays, if you're just on a 720p or lower resolution then it's not wise to invest on an expensive mouse with high dpi since you won't be able to utilize its features.
