Reviewers note that most top gaming mice today are wireless and support 8k polling. They mention purchasing several of these highly rated mice over the past two years, and while they can be used with a USB cable, it seems convenient to keep them plugged in for better performance.

You might be wondering why, since the change is minor and the battery life remains sufficient, it doesn't seem significant. The device operates with a single AA cell and only required a replacement every two years.

It's worth noting that most contemporary wireless mice don't send position data through the USB cable, which is solely for charging. Therefore, even when connected, the sensor remains functional without a wired link.
There were earlier exceptions, like the Logitech G700s from 2013. At that time, its battery only lasted around four hours of gaming, making it practical to use it with a wired connection.

I only use wired mice, which means I don’t have to worry about the battery running out. I really like it. However, wired mice are becoming increasingly difficult to find. There are still a few available, but most of them end up being purchased from Amazon.
