Ive been using a Mad Catz RAT M for a while and love it. Very comfy little mouse that uses standard batteries, and has a great button layout (more mice need thumb sticks!)

 

Although I had to RMA my first one due to bluetooth connectivity issues my 2nd one has been great. So you're mileage may vary.

I really like the Logitech M557 and I use it daily for school and it has never failed me even though I've been using it for about 6 months now. Also the battery hasn't died from it yet :3 So its great for work but if you're going for gaming then its just a standard mouse at the end of the day.

okay so im looking for a good wireless bluetooth mouse for my laptop i dont want logitech dongle nonsense filling up usb ports other requirements under £100 and not be super ugly :P thanks in advance

What about the Logitech MX Master, very attractive mouse with the option of bluetooth OR a usb dongle. This mouse is kinda heavy, so if you game, might want to look elsewhere, but for productivity, well, it is the best on the market...

M557 is a flat, basic mouse convenient if you taking it places.

MX Master is suited for desktop use.

There is the MX Anywhere 1/2, most feature packed laptop mouse. But they are wifi and require the dongle.

yes, and I am informing peej that it is a bluetooth mouse aswell, leading her away from your incorrect statement that "They are wifi and require the dongle"

i know that the mx master is bluetooth if youd bothered to read the thread before commenting youd of seen that someone had already suggested it and id acknowledged it

Haha I love the look of mine in matte black. It even comes in racecar red which makes it by far the "fastest" mouse on the market!
