It only at first glance seems that any mouse pad is suitable for any mouse. In fact, to a large extent, the level of mouse comfort depends on the mat you choose. Some types of computer mice require the mat to be made of a specific material. If you choose the wrong mat for the laser mouse, it will be inconvenient to work with it.

Instructions
Step 1
You need to choose a rug based on the type of your mouse. If your mouse is still an old modification (on a wheel), you have no special options. The best choice for such a mouse is a cork mat. You can also purchase a cloth mat for a ball mouse. On it, the mouse will move smoothly and the ball will not slide. It is not recommended to purchase plastic and glass mats for ball mice, as it will be inconvenient to work on them: the mouse ball will have poor adhesion to this type of coating and will constantly slip.
Step 2
If you have an optical or laser mouse, then it is better to choose a plastic or glass mat. On these types of rugs, the accuracy of movement of the mouse cursor across the monitor will be better compared to a cloth rug. Purchase a glass mat if you actively play video games. The laser and optical mouse will slide on these mats quickly and accurately.
Step 3
The size of the rug must be purchased based on the purpose of using the mouse. For normal work, small or medium size is suitable, for video games it is better to take a special gaming mat with a wider area. It will then be more convenient to play video games.
Step 4
People who sit at the computer for a long time due to work should choose a rug more carefully. After all, they have to feel constant tension in the hand with the mouse. Therefore, you need to take a type of rug that will at least partially relieve this stress. There are special mats with a silicone cushion that support the brush while manipulating the mouse. If you also spend a lot of time at the computer, get just such a rug. It will be more convenient to work with the mouse, and you will not feel severe fatigue in your hands.
Step 5
Modern rugs come in a variety of designs. The form factor of the rug is a matter of the individual tastes of each individual user.
