Lenovo’s new travel mouse does wireless charging

As part of a new ‘go’ brand for hybrid workers.

By Chaim Gartenberg

Share this story

Lenovo is starting a new line of accessories, called Lenovo Go: a lineup of chargers, mice and keyboards, and audio products designed for the new world of hybrid workers who’ll be both commuting to the office and working from home.

The company is starting small with two products so far. There’s Lenovo Go Wireless Multi-Device Mouse, a travel mouse whose main claim to fame (other than portability) is support for wireless Qi charging (in addition to USB-C). There’s also the Lenovo Go USB-C Laptop Power Bank, which offers 20,000mAh of charging capacity at up to 65W, with the ability to charge up to three devices at once.

Coming in June

Neither device is groundbreaking, but it’s the hybrid commuting focus that makes them interesting. Lenovo is specifically designing the devices so that workers will be able to easily switch them between multiple computers, while still being small enough to just toss in a bag and easily take home.

The new Go products are also just the first in what will eventually be a full product lineup. Lenovo has plans for “a range of wired and wireless charging solutions,” more mice and keyboards, and “audio solutions” to help improve meetings.

Lenovo Go Wireless Multi-Device Mouse is set to cost $59.99, while the Lenovo Go USB-C Laptop Power Bank will cost $89.99. Both devices will be available in June.

The best wireless mice combine heavily-researched ergonomics and finely-tuned productivity improvements to give you a tool that makes you more efficient — and feels like a natural extension of your arm. 

Productivity mice are different from gaming mice. You may not need a high-polling-rate, low-latency mouse for work, but that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of other factors to consider when picking the perfect mouse — such as multi-device control, built-in Bluetooth, speedy scroll wheels (and tilt wheels), and solid battery life. 

This list focuses on productivity mice; if you're looking to improve your game you can check out our list of best gaming mice . And if you're serious about decluttering, pair the perfect pointer with one of the best wireless keyboards and one of the best wireless headsets for ultimate freedom.

1. Logitech MX Master 3S

Our expert review:

Specifications

Reasons to buy, reasons to avoid.

The Logitech MX Master 3S is worth every penny if you make use of all its features. The MX Master 3S combines a comfortable, sculpted design with useful productivity features such as an electromagnetic scroll wheel, a separate thumb wheel, and a ton of customization options. It can also use the Logi Flow software to switch its connection seamlessly between three different devices — even carrying clipboard contents with it.

The MX Master 3S's scroll wheel is one of its most impressive features: It lets you toggle between a smooth or ratcheted feel with the press of a button — or automatically, based on how fast you spin it. A second thumb wheel on the left side lets you perform tasks such as zooming in and out of documents, scrolling horizontally in spreadsheets, and raising and lowering your system volume.

The mouse has six configurable buttons (seven, including the clickable scroll wheel), which you can set to do different things in different apps. (For example, you could have the side buttons perform the forward/back functions in your browser, but act as PgUp/PgDn in a word processor.)

The MX Master 3S has two noticeable improvements over its predecessor, the MX Master 3 : an upgraded sensor that goes up to 8,000 DPI, and quieter switches in the main left/right click buttons.

2. Logitech Lift

The Logitech Lift is an ergonomic wireless mouse designed for users with small- to medium-sized hands — it’s not for everyone, but it’s nice to see an option for users who might not find the larger Logitech MX Vertical comfortable to use. The Lift also comes in both right-handed and left-handed versions, making it one of the only ergonomic mouse options for left-handed users (though while the right-handed version comes in pink, white, and graphite, the left-handed version only comes in the latter). 

The Lift has a vertical design, which puts your hand at an “optimal” 57-degree angle — also known as the “handshake angle.” This angle is more natural than the typical horizontal angle mice normally have, but this design does lift your hand away from your desk. If you’re used to a regular mouse, it may take you some time to get used to this new position (and you may never get used to it, especially if you work with very precise movements — it’s harder to be precise when your hand is further from the desk). 

The Lift is a productivity mouse; it works with Logitech’s Logi Options+ software and includes Logitech’s productivity features such as Logi Flow, which lets you switch between three different PCs. Logi Flow isn’t perfect — there’s a small delay between devices, but it’s an excellent feature for people who switch between a laptop and a desktop, or a laptop and a tablet. 

The Lift's vertical design makes it less-than-ideal for precision tasks, such as gaming — gamers who want an ergonomic mouse should check out the incredibly comfortable Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro .

3. Lenovo Go Wireless Vertical Mouse

The Lenovo Go Wireless Mouse is a cheaper take on the vertical mouse layout than the Logitech Lift and the Logitech MX Vertical, with a price that ranges from $30 - $50 depending on sales (which Lenovo frequently has). Despite this, it’s got a strong luxury feel thanks to the comfortable, stylish cork side finish, and it also has many of the Lift's and MX Vertical's strengths.

These include the natural, 57-degree "handshake position" angle and the six programmable buttons (one less than you'll find on the MX Vertical). The Go Wireless mouse also features three programmable DPI steps (800 - 2,400), which you can cycle through using the DPI switch button. The Lenovo Go Wireless mouse has a battery life of up to 18 months via one AA battery. 

The main drawback is the Go Wireless' side button placement. Instead of being in the divot where your thumb rests — like it is on the MX Vertical — the side buttons are instead located on the mouse's top edge. You'll have to strain your thumb to reach them, which throws a wrench in the mouse's otherwise strong ergonomics. 

4. Razer Pro Click Mini

Often, gaming gear is a cheap way to get your hands on a mouse with professional-level features. Razer is known mostly for its gaming peripherals, but it's also been dabbling in the productivity sphere by taking features it's known for in its gaming products and translating them to a line specifically for productivity.

Enter the Razer Pro Click Mini . This mouse is the second productivity focused pointer from Razer, and features quieter switches and a smaller footprint than the first. But unlike other productivity focused mice, it’s also got a high max DPI (12,000), a 1,000 Hz polling rate, 7 programmable buttons, and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity. Plus, it’s got 5 onboard memory profiles and you can remap buttons, including the 4-way tilt wheel with both infinite and ratcheted scrolling, in Razer Synapse. 

That makes this an especially powerful contender for the office — it's versatile and highly responsive, and its sleek gray and white chassis keep it from looking to much like a gaming mouse.

It’s a bit of a shame that it uses AA batteries instead of being rechargeable, especially since those batteries do make it a touch heavier. But with a purported 465 hours of 2.4GHz battery life and 725 hours of Bluetooth battery life, it’s easy to just stuff this in your bag and forget about it for months on end.

5. Logitech M510

What even is a “best mouse,” anyway? Don’t you just need a way to point your cursor without too much delay and without hurting your hands? If this sounds like you, the Logitech M510 will be your new best friend. Its no-frills design makes it one of the most inexpensive mice on this list at just $20, while its 2.4GHz connectivity means it has virtually zero lag or latency. It sports a comfortable, ambidextrous body that should fit nicely into most hands, and its two side buttons are accessible across palm, claw, and fingertip grip styles.  

The M510 works with Logi Options, where you can set the DPI (up to 1,000), swap the left and right mouse buttons, and otherwise remap the mouse's five buttons. Remap assignment options include keystrokes, functions, and even a "gesture" toggle that works with mouse movement to open up even more mappable actions. Logi Options also lets you set application-specific mouse profiles, so the mouse's buttons can function differently depending on which app you're using at the moment. Logi Options isn't unique to the M510, but it's good to know that Logitech's productivity features are still accessible even in the brand's most basic mice. 

Speaking of basic, this mouse glides well with its four rubber feet and is powered by two AA batteries (up to 24 months of battery life). It weighs 4.48 ounces (127g), making it relatively easy to lift and travel with. All around, it's a great starter mouse — though its ambidextrous design leaves it with a somewhat underdeveloped thumbrest (and it doesn't have some of the fancier features, such as an infinite scroll wheel). 

6. Microsoft Modern Mobile Mouse

The Microsoft Modern Mobile Mouse is a thin little credit card of a pointer that presumes that the most comfortable form factor for a mouse is to have as little mouse in your hand as possible. This makes it great for travel and style, especially with its 8 available colors and Bluetooth connectivity. At 2.75 ounces (78g) with batteries installed, it’s easy to carry around with you. At the same time, its sleek rectangular exterior makes it difficult for certain grip types to handle it, and it doesn’t come with extra buttons or too much configurability.

With just a left button, a right button and a clickable scroll wheel (non-tilt), this mouse isn’t meant for more than basic work. The scroll wheel’s push-in button can be remapped to input a key combination, open the screen snipping tool or even input a macro, but that’s the most advanced usability you’ll get out of this mouse. Otherwise, all its software will let you do is swap the left and right click, change how fast the wheel scrolls (and in which direction) and adjust your DPI.

The max DPI is higher on this mouse than what you’ll find on other productivity focused entries, though. The minimum DPI is 400 and the maximum is 1800, which means you’ll be able to easily track your cursor across all sorts of resolutions and monitor sizes. 

There’s no doubt that the mouse’s lightweight nature lends it a certain level of comfort, as it doesn’t take much force to use, although it can feel bulky in the hands thanks to its rectangular shape. That’s a bit odd given how small the mouse is, and it doesn’t help that palm grip users don’t have much of a body to rest their palms on.

Still, this is a good mouse for Bluetooth devices, casual use, travel and those who prefer lightweight and small accessories that stay out of the way. It also looks good. But its functions are limited, and it’s not the most comfortable for all types of users.

7. Microsoft Arc Mouse

The Microsoft Arc Mouse is a more ergonomic take on the Microsoft Modern Mobile Mouse that nonetheless loses some functionality in the pursuit of greater comfort. It feels great in the hands, so much so that it might convince you to abandon a claw grip for a palm grip instead. However, its hair-trigger button (which doesn't physically distinguish between left/right click zones) and its lack of scroll wheel means it's not for everyone. At $80, the Arc Mouse is more than three times the cost of the Modern Mobile Mouse, but is still affordable compared to other ergonomic mice on this list. It also carries over some of the benefits of the Modern Mobile Mouse — an uncomplicated, lightweight body, multiple color options, and easy portability (it can bend flat to fit into bags with no issue). 

It's also got the same weaknesses as the Modern Mobile Mouse — and then some. Most noticeable and egregious is the lack of a scroll wheel or separate left and right click buttons. Taking the Modern Mobile Mouse’s lack of buttons a little further, the Arc Mouse opts to have one clickable touchpad for its input. Clicking the left side works as a left click and clicking the right side works like a right click (although you can swap these), while an optional three-finger-click option can serve as either a middle click or a keyboard combination of your choice. This can take some getting used to at first, as you find where the boundaries between the different options are, but it generally works. 

Instead of a scroll wheel, the mouse wants you to flick your finger to scroll. This results in stilted scrolling that requires a lot of extraneous flicks, even on the highest sensitivity setting. Not only do you lose precision with this, but you also lose comfort, which goes against the point of the mouse.

Also a little disappointing is that bending the mouse flat also turns it off, so you can’t use it in this shape if you prefer. Further, the mouse is not built for fingertip or claw grippers. 

Some people will love this mouse, either as a main pointer or as a backup while traveling. It's a niche pick, but so are most ergonomic mice.

8. Logitech Ergo M575 Mouse

The Logitech Ergo M575 Mouse is the hero your strained wrists have been waiting for. With it, you won’t need to move them at all. Just lay your hand on your mouse once, and you’re all set for eight hours straight without needing to move it again (aside from getting up to go to the bathroom). Of course, your thumb will be getting a workout the whole time. That’s because this mouse uses a trackball to move the cursor. It’s not a new approach, but at $50 and with 2.4GHz and Bluetooth support, the Ergo M575 is more advanced than what you would have gotten in the ‘90s.

Using it will take some practice, of course, but it feels like a dream in your hand. It completely eliminates strain from repetitive motions, and the wide body perfectly contorts to my hand shape. Again, it does require my thumb to do a lot of movement, but if there’s anything decades of gaming has taught me, it’s that my thumbs are pretty resilient when it comes to carpal tunnel syndrome. The rest of my hand, not so much.

Of course, speaking of gaming, not being able to move the mouse’s body itself does come with some struggles. For instance, while this isn’t our best gaming mouse list, let’s not kid ourselves. You’re probably not constantly swapping between a gaming and work mouse with your home setup. If you were hoping to use this mouse to moonlight in games, think again. While its trackball can reach a DPI of up to 2000, it’s harder to do controlled flicks or steady tracking with it. Not common use cases on the job, but very common in games.

Clicking-and-dragging also takes some rewiring at first, as I’m not used to using both my thumb and my index finger when doing so. It took a bit of thought to remember to let go of my index finger when I was done dragging, but not my thumb. Similarly, it can be hard to precisely highlight text with a trackball.

Most of these issues, aside from the mouse not being well-suited to games, are easy enough to fix with practice. And once you do, your wrists will thank you. Your desk might thank you too. While the M575 is a bulky mouse, it also paradoxically has a small footprint because you don’t need to move it when using it. It doesn’t even need a mousepad, making it great for people with small desks or keyboard trays.

Like the Logitech M510, the M575 is compatible with the Logitech Options software, which lets you remap its three extra buttons, check battery level, swap the left/right click and adjust DPI. The customization on offer here is fairly robust, and allows you to set a button to open programs, control media, enter certain key combinations and the like. Plus, you can set the mouse to use different settings depending on which program you have open.

If you like trackball mice, this is one of the best modern options available.

9. Logitech Triathlon M720 Mouse

At first glance, the Logitech Triathlon M720 mouse doesn’t appear to offer much for its $40 price that the more basic, $20 Logitech M510 mouse doesn’t already have. It’s got one extra button hidden away in its left thumb rest, which itself is more prominent than the thumb rest on the M510, plus a switch hidden under the scroll wheel that swaps it between ratcheted and smooth scrolling. But it’s also got one other additional, non-remappable button on its side with a “123” printed next to it. This button is where you’ll find the Triathlon’s unique use case, which is its ability to pair with up to 3 computers at once and swap between them on the fly either with that button or through Logitech Flow.

Logitech Flow is a unique piece of software that allows the Triathlon to easily treat multiple computers like one desktop simply by moving the cursor between their displays. This lets you copy and paste images and files easily, or even just use a laptop as a secondary or tertiary monitor without hassle. Think of it like a software solution for a KVM. All you have to do is pair the Triathlon to each of the PCs you want to use and make sure Logitech Options is installed on each.

In practice, it works almost flawlessly, plus you can add a Logitech keyboard into the mix if you have one. The only major issue is with connectivity standard limitations. To connect to a device, the M720 needs either Bluetooth or a Logitech Unifying Receiver. Since it only comes with a single unifying receiver, you can’t have all of your devices using 2.4 GHz unless you buy individual receivers separately. There’s no issue with connecting multiple Bluetooth devices, however, nor did I have a problem connecting one device via 2.4 GHz and one via Bluetooth.

Less of an issue is that a device’s mouse cursor does not disappear when you move your mouse off of it, which can be mildly annoying if you’re using a laptop as a secondary display.

If you need to quickly move files across devices or just simply do not own a secondary monitor but do have a laptop, Logitech Flow can be a boon to your productivity. But if all you need to do is connect a single mouse to multiple devices and swap between them on the fly, other Logitech mice can also do that. Take the Ergo M575, which has both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth compatibility. I easily connected the M575 to one device via 2.4 GHz and one device via Bluetooth, then swapped between them on the fly via the button on the bottom of the mouse that changes the M575’s connectivity standard. It’s a more hack-y solution, and requires you to turn the mouse over every time you want to swap devices rather than using an easy side button, but it does take away one of the Triathlon’s unique strengths.

Nonetheless, the Triathlon is still inexpensive compared to mice like the Ergo M575, and is a good choice if you’re just getting a Logitech productivity mouse and need to use it across multiple devices. It’s comfortable in the hand across all grip styles, easily remappable via the robust Logitech Options software and has access to an always-satisfying smooth scroll wheel.

Tips for Picking the Best Wireless Mouse

• Shape and comfort: Mouse shape and design play a prominent role how effective a cursor-controlling tool it is. An excellent wireless mouse will feel like a natural extension of your arm — not a clunky, cheap-feeling hunk of plastic that hinders productivity. Consider how you grip or hold your mouse to determine where you'll want more or less height or width. The size of your hands also plays a role in picking the best wireless mouse for you. 
• Bluetooth or dongle: Some wireless mice connect via Bluetooth, while others connect via 2.4GHz wireless using a USB-A (or USB-C) dongle — and some mice offer both. If you're only going to use your mouse with one PC, consider one that connects via 2.4GHz wireless, especially if you're going to game on the side —  you'll get a reliable, lag-free connection this way. If you have more than one device to connect to, a Bluetooth connection will let you connect to multiple devices and switch between them — some even let you switch without manually pressing a profile-switch button. 
• Rechargeability: Mice running on AA or AAA batteries are usually cheaper than their rechargeable rivals, and usually last longer — months, or even years. But they're heavier and less convenient to travel with.

• imsurgical Let me preface my surprise at this list by stating I own and have religiously used a G Pro Wireless, G903 (original non-lightspeed) and Razer DeathAdder V2 Pro, and am currently using a G305 as my everyday work horse mouse, so I have some semblance of expectations when it comes to wireless gaming mice. How does the G305 not make this list? I'm a little confused by that :unsure:. Weight wise, it's in line with most of these expensive mice or better, and if you sub out the battery for a lithium or even AAA converted lithium you're coming in at an 84-85g mouse that has such a long charge time compared to any of these mice listed. I can understand most of the picks, but the Redragon M686 taking a spot as an "affordable wireless gaming" mouse compared to the G305? Anyways, interesting quick read, thank you! Reply

The best travel mice for 2024: Logitech, Razer, and more

Published on March 29, 2024

A good travel mouse is essential to the on-the-go professional, student, or anyone who prefers a mouse’s tactility over a laptop trackpad. Here are some of the best travel mice in various price points and categories.

Buying the best portable mouse

Portable mice are quite convenient, but they have more criteria to fulfill than your regular mice. First and foremost, a good portable mouse has to be a good mouse, overall. That means having a solid feel with the body and the clicks, good sensitivity, and enough features to not feel lacking.

With portable mice, this balance is even more critical. Since these mice aim at portability, there are often some compromises made. The most common sacrifice is ergonomics, as travel mice are small, and better ergonomics require a larger body.

The key to picking the right travel mouse is to decide what your priorities are, and see which one fits the profile best. For example, if you need a travel mouse that is great for productivity, you can get something like the Logitech MX Anywhere 3s, which is a tiny little workhorse. For gaming on the go, however, you can pick something different, like one of Razer’s portable offerings. There are also some great portable trackpads out there if that’s more your style and you like using gestures.

Another key factor to consider is the wireless interface. You usually get two options — Bluetooth and RF (also known as wireless). Bluetooth has become increasingly common, but some of the cheaper mice still employ the older RF technology. These RF mice come with a USB dongle to connect to your computer. Bluetooth mice are obviously the better pick for convenience. Battery life may suffer a bit, but this has been improved thanks to Bluetooth 5.0 LE. Performance mice can also take advantage of an RF dongle’s latency improvements.

Lastly is the portability itself. Travel mice generally have a small profile, and all the picks on our list have that in common. You can consider the weight of a mouse depending on your requirements. The battery life is also part of the portability, so ensure you get a mouse that meets your needs.

The best portable mice

While laptop trackpads have improved significantly over the years, many people still like the comfort and precision of a traditional mouse. In this list, we have wireless mice ranging from $25 – $80 for productivity features, gaming, and for those who enjoy using a trackpad but need an external pad for optimal comfort. Let’s get into the best mice for travel.

• The Logitech MX Anywhere 3s is the best mouse overall, offering great build quality, comfort, features, and performance focused on productivity.
• The Logitech M240 is an excellent travel mouse you can get at a very low price.
• The Razer Orochi V2 is the best travel mouse for gamers.
• The Logitech G705 is another great gaming mouse if you want great looks and performance.
• The Microsoft Surface Arc Mouse is the most portable mouse, offering a super slim profile and a foldable design.
• The Microsoft Modern Mobile Mouse is great-looking, offering a minimalist and colorful design.
• The Razer Pro Click Mini is a great performance travel mouse for professionals, thanks to its elegant looks and great features.
• The KEYMECHER Mano 703 Touchpad is a great portable trackpad.
• The Wacom Intuos Wireless Graphics Drawing Tablet is remarkable for digital nomads with a focus on drawing or editing.
• The Lenovo Yoga Mouse is a great tool for office dwellers and business travelers. Aside from working as a mouse, it can control presentations and comes with a laser pointer.

Logitech MX Anywhere 3s: The best travel mouse overall

We promise Logitech won’t consume this entire list, but how can we talk about the best travel mice without mentioning the MX Anywhere 3s? This is the company’s highest-end, most feature-packed mouse that is still small enough to be considered portable.

You also get premium build quality, a rechargeable battery, and control across multiple computers. For those who want the best of the best, look no further than the MX Anywhere 3s. It’s also a bit pricey at $80, though.

Logitech M240: The best budget travel mouse

On the opposite side of the Logitech spectrum, the M240 is one of the best travel mice if you want to spend very little money. The ultra-portable design is discrete and simple, yet comfortable enough. It works via Bluetooth, so no need for a dongle. It costs only $20, which makes it very accessible.

The portable mouse also comes in various colors, including Graphite, Off-white, and Rose. And if you care for battery life, apparently this one can stay alive for 18 months on a single AA battery.

As an added perk, Logitech made this mouse to be quiet, just in case you need to take it to a library, or any other quiet place. The buttons are said to be 90% quieter.

Razer Orochi V2: The best portable mouse for gaming

Now that we’re out of Logitech land (not for long!), the gamers in the crowd will appreciate the Razer Orochi V2 mouse for its gaming-grade sensor. It features an up to 18,000 DPI sensor so you can wind down and play some games after finishing work away from home.

It’s not the smallest mouse on this list, but it is smaller by gaming standards, and it is among the smallest mice Razer has to offer. Battery life expectancy is at 950 hours. It can use either Bluetooth or a 5GHz receiver. You can get the Razer Orochi V2 for $70, but sales show up pretty often.

Logitech G705: Another great portable gaming mouse

Small gaming mice are hard to come by, and while this one isn’t as small as others on this list, it is made with portability in mind. The mouse is also gorgeously designed and even features RGB lighting.

The Logitech G705 features six programmable buttons, a 40-hour battery life (with RGB on), and up to 8,200 DPI sensitivity. You can also choose between using Bluetooth or a USB wireless dongle. The $80 price point is up there, but it isn’t outrageous for a quality gaming mouse this portable.

Microsoft Arc Mouse: The most portable mouse

Microsoft’s premium entry into the land of portable mice is the Surface Arc Mouse, and this one is unique. There’s no on/off switch on this mouse; instead, it folds flat to turn off and folds into an arc to turn on. It was designed with Microsoft’s Surface devices in mind, but it is a Bluetooth mouse and, as such, will work with anything you can pair it to.

The form factor on the Surface Arc Mouse is hyper-portable — you could toss this into a laptop sleeve with no issues. The $80 price tag may be worth it if you’re tight on bag space. Not to mention there is a “cool” factor to this mouse.

Microsoft Modern Mobile Mouse: Minimalist and colorful for design enthusiasts

This one may not be as thin as the Microsoft Arc Mouse, but it is a more solid alternative that’s more comfortable. It’s also significantly cheaper at $35.

Razer Pro Click Mini: The most elegant portable mouse for professionals

For an extra bonus as a portable mouse, the Pro Click Mini won’t actually click at all; it’s equipped with silent switches that remain tractile in use, so your spam-clicking an app to get it to open won’t distract the person next to you. Textured side grips help keep the mouse steady on a desk, too.

Big bonus: it can connect to up to four devices between its 2.4GHz receiver and three Bluetooth profiles. As it goes with quality gaming mice, this one is more expensive at $80.

KEYMECHER Mano 703 Touchpad: The best portable trackpad

Sadly, there are no longer many good options for portable trackpads. Most come from odd brands, and so does the KEYMECHER Mano 703 Touchpad, but it’s looking like the best option.

It comes with multi-touch support, gesture capabilities, and up to 30 days of battery life. You can connect it to your computer using Bluetooth, or use a USB cable. Additionally, it has a 6-inch touch surface. This makes it larger than most laptop trackpads, but still small enough to easily carry it around.

It’s not the cheapest at $50, but it offers a great balance between price and value for those who prefer using a touchpad.

Wacom Intuos Wireless Tablet: The best portable drawing tablet

Here’s something a little different for artists and creators among you. If you find yourself drawing and editing on the go often, then you might want to look into a good portable drawing tablet. Our favorite is the Wacom Intuos Wireless Tablet.

This smaller model has a 7-inch surface, which you can control using the battery-free stylus. The tablet has a battery, though, as it connects to your computer via Bluetooth. Apparently, it can last about a week on a single charge. And it works on Windows, MacOS, and Chrome OS.

This one starts at $100, which makes it quite pricey. It will do much more than let you control your computer, though. Aside from using it as a touchpad, it can serve as an amazing tools for creatives.

Lenovo Yoga Mouse: For the office traveler

Here’s another travel mouse that is very unique. This one is specially made for office dwellers and traveling businessmen. The rear part will twist to lay flat while stored, but it will have a more comfortable design when in use. This technique is very similar to the Surface Arc Mouse, but it flips instead of bending.

What makes it special is that its buttons can be used for controlling presentations, and the unit comes with a built-in laser pointer. Otherwise, it’s also a pretty good mouse. The DPI can go up to 1,600, and it supports both Bluetooth and a dongle. There is an integrated battery, which, by the way, lasts two months on a single charge. It’s also $83, though.

If you have a wireless mouse with a USB dongle, you’ll need to plug it into the PC to get your PC to detect it. If you have a Bluetooth mouse, you’ll need to pair it via the Bluetooth settings on your PC.

Wireless mice and wireless keyboards connect separately to the computer, and are registered as individual devices. As such, any wireless mouse will work with any wireless keyboard, as long as you connect them both to the PC separately. That said, some special features will only work with devices from specific brands. For example, if you want to use Logitech’s Flow feature, you will need to have both a Logitech mouse and keyboard, and both need to support this feature.

There are a lot of small mice that share the same minimal footprint. If you want the smallest of the smallest mice, that we would still recommend, you can pick something like the Logitech Wireless Mini Mouse .

Only in some cases. Some companies, like Logitech, offer unifying wireless connectors which can replace a lost dongle. Some others, like Razer, sell the dongles by model. You’ll have to check the manufacturer’s website to see if you can get a replacement dongle for your mouse.

Mousepad options are limited for those using portable mice. Still, you can just get the smallest size available for your favorite mousepad. Check out Amazon , there are plenty of good options in there.

The Best Wireless Mouse

By Kimber Streams

Kimber Streams is a writer who has been covering laptops and other tech at Wirecutter for more than a decade. They once built a fort out of keyboards.

Wireless mice are convenient to use: They help you navigate more quickly and easily than a finicky trackpad, and there are no wires to clutter up your desk space. Wireless mice have become so inexpensive and reliable that, for most people, they’re a better option than a cheap wired mouse.

After researching and testing mice for nearly a decade with multiple panels of testers, we’ve found that the Logitech M720 Triathlon Multi-Device is the most comfortable option for a variety of hand sizes and grip styles.

Everything we recommend

Logitech M720 Triathlon Multi-Device

The best wireless mouse.

The M720 Triathlon is comfortable for people with a wide range of hand sizes, and it has six programmable buttons and a long battery life.

Buying Options

Logitech M585 Multi-Device

A great mouse.

The M585 is another comfortable wireless mouse with customizable buttons and a long battery life. But it’s smaller and has fewer buttons.

Logitech M590 Multi-Device Silent

A silent option.

The M590 is identical to the M585, but it offers silent left- and right-click buttons.

Upgrade pick

Logitech MX Master 3S

A fancier option.

The MX Master 3S has a bigger, ergonomic design and a useful thumb-scroll wheel. But it’s expensive, and it’s too large for those with small hands.

Logitech MX Master 3S for Mac

A fancier option for mac.

The MX Master 3S for Mac is identical to the Master 3S, but it doesn’t come with a USB receiver.

Logitech MX Anywhere 3S

A smaller option.

The MX Anywhere 3S is a comfortable option if you need a smaller mouse. But it’s expensive and too small for some hands, and it doesn’t come with a USB dongle.

The Logitech M720 Triathlon Multi-Device has been our top pick since 2016, due to its comfortable size and shape. It has six buttons that you can customize using the Logi Options+ software , and it has a scroll wheel that toggles between ratcheted and smooth scrolling.

The M720 Triathlon can pair with—and swap between—three devices via Bluetooth, or it can connect with its included USB dongle. Logitech claims the Triathlon’s single AA battery will last for two years, and in our testing, it has been in line with that estimate. But the M720 Triathlon is contoured for right-handed mouse users, and it doesn’t work on glass or mirrored surfaces.

If the M720 Triathlon is unavailable, we recommend the Logitech M585 Multi-Device or the quieter—but otherwise identical— Logitech M590 Multi-Device Silent . Compared with our top pick, the M585 and M590 are a little smaller, and they have one fewer button. But our testers still found that both mice were comfortable to use. They both have five programmable buttons, can connect via Bluetooth or included USB dongle, and have long battery life. Like the M720 Triathlon, the M585 and M590 are contoured for right-handed use, and they don’t track on glass or mirrors.

If you use a mouse all day, we recommend the Logitech MX Master 3S or the MX Master 3S for Mac . This mouse is comfortable to use—especially for those with large hands—and it has a handy thumb-scroll wheel and five other programmable buttons. The MX Master 3S can connect to up to three devices via Bluetooth; the regular version also comes with a USB dongle, but the Mac version does not.

Our upgrade pick’s battery lasts about two months on a charge. And Logitech has partnered with iFixit to provide replacement batteries and step-by-step guides , so you don’t have to buy a whole new mouse when the rechargeable battery inevitably wears out. But the MX Master 3S is expensive, and our testers with the smallest hands found it to be uncomfortably large. Also, the Logi Options+ software is required to customize the mouse’s buttons and sensitivity.

If you want a smaller mouse, we recommend the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S . Our testers with smaller hands liked its flatter, more-compact shape, but testers with average-size and larger hands found it uncomfortable to use. The MX Anywhere 3S has six programmable buttons, can pair with three devices via Bluetooth, and has an estimated 70 days of battery life. But it’s expensive, and it doesn’t come with a USB receiver. And you’ll need the Logi Options+ software to customize the mouse’s buttons and sensitivity.

If you use a mouse with your left hand, or you want a cheaper ambidextrous option, a vertical mouse, or a wireless mouse for occasional gaming, we offer more advice in the Other good wireless mice section .

The research

Why you should trust us, how we picked, how we tested, our pick: logitech m720 triathlon multi-device, runner-up: logitech m585 multi-device or logitech m590 multi-device silent, upgrade pick: logitech mx master 3s, a smaller mouse: logitech mx anywhere 3s, other good wireless mice, what to look forward to, the competition.

I have been reviewing wireless mice at Wirecutter since 2014. I’ve combed through studies on hand sizes and computer ergonomics, solicited the opinions of left- and right-handed panel testers of all hand sizes and grip types, and lived with our picks for years.

These are the features we look for in a great wireless mouse:

• Comfort: A great wireless mouse should be comfortable to use. Comfort depends on your hand size and grip style—and whether you mouse with your left or right hand—so what works for one person doesn’t always work for another. We aim to find mice that are comfortable for use with a wide range of hand sizes, but no single mouse is universally comfortable.
• Buttons: Every mouse needs standard left- and right-click buttons, and we look for mice with at least two side buttons, too. All of these buttons should be easy to click on purpose and difficult to activate by mistake. Some mice also come with useful software to track battery life and to customize buttons, sensitivity, acceleration, scroll speed, and more.
• Connection: A mouse’s wireless connection shouldn’t lag or cut out. Bluetooth is a requirement, since many laptops nowadays have USB-C ports only. But a 2.4 GHz USB wireless receiver (also known as a dongle) can be easier to set up and provide a more-stable connection. If a mouse has a receiver, it also needs a cavity to store it. A stable connection partially depends on your setup—USB 3.0 ports and devices radiate radio-frequency noise (PDF) , which can interfere with devices using the 2.4 GHz wireless band. This noise can radiate from the port on your computer or connected device, or from the cable connecting the two. To get a more-reliable connection, use an extender , which can move the dongle away from sources of interference.
• Battery life: Our picks will last a couple of years on replaceable batteries or at least a couple of months on a charge. Battery life degrades over time, so the more a mouse starts with, the better.
• Build quality: A mouse should feel sturdy, not hollow, cheap, or flexible.
• Sensor: The sensor should register motion accurately, and it should work on a variety of surfaces—desks, hard and soft mouse pads, wood, and fabric.

We begin testing by eliminating mice with obvious comfort issues, poorly placed buttons, inferior build quality, and subpar buttons and scroll wheels. Then I spend hours using the finalists on Windows and Mac to evaluate their connections, software, and performance on a variety of surfaces—including a desk, a hard mouse pad, a soft mouse pad, a wood floor, fabric, glass, and mirrors.

We also solicit opinions from panel testers with different hand sizes and grips. We researched average adult hand sizes using data compiled by the Georgia Tech Research Institute and a 1980 study of hand anthropometry commissioned by the U.S. Army . And in 2015, 2017, and 2019, we asked left- and right-handed panel testers with different grips to use our contenders. Our panelists had a wide range of hand sizes, but the average of their measurements altogether was in line with both studies—4 inches (palm), 3.3 inches (finger), and 7.7 inches (spread). We’ve applied our comfort findings from previous years’ test panels to our latest round of testing.

The Logitech M720 Triathlon Multi-Device has been our top pick since 2016 because, unlike most wireless mice we’ve tested, it’s comfortable for people with a variety of hand sizes and grip styles. The M720 Triathlon can pair with—and quickly switch between—three devices via Bluetooth, or it can connect with its included USB dongle. It also has six programmable buttons that you can customize using the Logi Options+ software , and it has a scroll wheel that toggles between ratcheted and smooth scrolling. Logitech claims that the Triathlon’s battery can last for two years.

The M720 Triathlon is a comfortable size for most hand sizes and grip styles. In all of our panel tests over the years, our panelists of all hand sizes have rated the M720 Triathlon among the most comfortable. Our panelists enjoyed the M720 Triathlon’s supportive back arch—which measures about 2 inches and slopes down toward the front of the mouse—and its grippy, non-sweaty surface.

It has a plethora of easy-to-reach buttons. Alongside an application switcher button and a Bluetooth device toggle, the M720 Triathlon has six programmable buttons that can be customized using the Logi Options+ software . (You can also track battery life using Options+.) If you don’t need the extra customization, though, the M720 Triathlon still works without the software.

With both dongle and Bluetooth support, the M720 Triathlon will work for any setup. Our pick comes with a 2.4 GHz wireless Unifying Receiver , and it can also pair with up to three devices via Bluetooth. You can also store its USB dongle in the bottom of the Triathlon when you’re not using it.

The M720 Triathlon’s battery lasts a very long time. Logitech claims that the M720 Triathlon’s single AA battery will last for two years. Although we can’t precisely test that estimate, long-term testing by several Wirecutter staffers has indicated that this estimate is accurate. We also like that the AA battery is easy to replace when it wears out.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

Our pick is contoured for right-handed use, like most mice . If you need a left-handed mouse, we have recommendations in the Other good wireless mice section.

The M720 Triathlon doesn’t work on glass. If you need a mouse that does, consider the Logitech MX Master 3S or the MX Anywhere 3S.

If the M720 Triathlon  is unavailable, we recommend the Logitech M585 Multi-Device or the quieter—but otherwise identical— Logitech M590 Multi-Device Silent . Both mice are a little smaller than the M720 Triathlon, and they have one fewer button, but our testers found them comfortable to use. They can connect via USB dongle or Bluetooth, and they have long battery life.

The M585 is smaller than the M720 Triathlon, but it’s still comfortable to hold. Like the M720 Triathlon, the M585 fit nicely into our panel testers’ hands, and its 1.6-inch arch still offered enough palm support for extended use. The matte plastic covering on the left and right sides is easy to grip, without making hands sweaty or sticky.

The M585 has five programmable, well-placed buttons. The scroll wheel feels cheaper, and it lacks the M720 Triathlon wheel’s handy toggle between smooth and ratcheted scrolling, but it’s adequate for browsing the web and scrolling large documents. These inputs can be customized using Logi Options+.

Our runner-up mouse can connect via USB dongle or Bluetooth. However, the M585 can pair with only two devices, whereas the M720 Triathlon can pair with up to three. Like our top pick, the M585 has a convenient storage cavity for the USB dongle.

The battery is long-lasting and easy to replace. Logitech claims the M585’s battery life lasts for up to two years. And we’ve used it for about six months without needing to replace its single AA battery. We appreciate that the M585’s battery is simple to remove when it wears out, like the M720 Triathlon’s battery.

We had no issues with the M585’s sensor, but it doesn’t work on glass or mirrored surfaces.

If you use a mouse all day, we recommend the Logitech MX Master 3S or the MX Master 3S for Mac . It’s comfortable—especially for those with bigger hands—and it has a useful second scroll wheel for your thumb, plus five other programmable buttons. Like our top pick, the MX Master 3S can connect to up to three devices via Bluetooth. The regular version also comes with a USB dongle, but the Mac model does not. The battery lasts for about two months on a charge. But our upgrade pick is expensive, and our smallest-handed testers found it to be uncomfortably large. And you’ll need the Logi Options+ software to customize this mouse’s buttons and sensitivity.

The MX Master 3S is comfortable to use for long periods. With its contoured shape, thumb rest, and soft-touch coating, our upgrade pick is particularly well suited for people with larger-than-average hands—it’s not too big for those with average-size hands, either. But our smallest-handed testers found the MX Master 3S to be uncomfortably large.

We love the MX Master 3S’s thumb-scroll wheel. By default the thumb wheel is set to horizontal scrolling, which is great for graphic design, video editing, and large spreadsheets, but configuring it to scroll between browser tabs is life-changing. In addition to quiet left- and right-click buttons, the MX Master 3S has six easy-to-each inputs that can be customized in the Logi Options+ software . The MagSpeed scroll wheel on top can automatically switch between ratcheted and smooth scrolling, which is useful for reading through a long document one ratchet at a time or quickly scrolling all the way to the bottom.

The Logi Options+ software is required to adjust sensitivity. Mouse sensitivity is measured in dots per inch, or DPI. The lower the sensitivity, the more you have to move the mouse to make the cursor move, and vice versa. The MX Master 3S’s DPI is set to 1,000 by default, which felt way too low for me both on a monitor and a 13-inch laptop screen; my preference is around 1,400. But my settings did not stick when I moved the mouse between computers, and they disappeared when I uninstalled Logi Options+. You can also use the software to remap buttons and set app-specific actions.

It can pair with three devices via Bluetooth, but not all models come with a USB dongle. The regular MX Master 3S can also connect via an included Logi Bolt USB receiver , but the MX Master 3S for Mac does not come with a dongle. (And be careful not to lose the dongle; there’s nowhere to store it inside either version of the MX Master 3S.)

The MX Master 3S’s built-in battery doesn’t last as long as our top pick’s. Logitech claims the MX Master 3S will last up to 70 days between charges, which is in line with our experience. But battery life also degrades over time, and one day the mouse will no longer hold a charge. We like that Logitech has partnered with iFixit to provide replacement batteries (and feet and screws ), as well as step-by-step replacement guides . So when that day comes, you don’t have to buy a brand new mouse.

The MX Master 3S will work on any surface. Unlike the majority of mice we tested, including our top picks, the MX Master 3S worked on glass and mirrors, thanks to its Logitech Darkfield (PDF) sensor.

If you want a smaller mouse, we recommend the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S . Our small-handed panel testers found the MX Anywhere 3S’s flatter, more-compact shape to be especially comfortable. Like our top pick, this mouse has six programmable buttons, and it can pair with three devices via Bluetooth. But the MX Anywhere 3S does not come with a USB receiver. Logitech estimates the battery life at 70 days. However, not all of our testers found this mouse comfortable to use, and it’s expensive. Also, to customize the mouse’s buttons and sensitivity, the Logi Options+ software is required.

Our testers with small hands love the MX Anywhere 3S, but not everyone finds it comfy. “I love the size and shape of this mouse,” our smallest-handed tester wrote. She ranked it the most comfortable of our picks, and she added that she was able to use the flat mouse in a palm grip without issue. Some testers with average-size and larger hands found the MX Anywhere 3S too small, however; they noted that it forced an uncomfortable claw grip and that the side buttons were difficult to press.

The MX Anywhere 3S has six programmable buttons. Our small-handed testers found these buttons well placed and easy to reach. And like those of our other picks, they can be customized in the Logi Options+ software . Like our upgrade pick, this model has a MagSpeed scroll wheel that can automatically switch between ratcheted and smooth scrolling.

To adjust sensitivity, you’ll need Logitech’s software. Like that of our upgrade pick, the MX Anywhere 3S’s sensitivity is set to 1,000 DPI by default, and it feels too low. Logitech’s software is required to adjust this setting, remap buttons, and set app-specific actions.

It can pair with three devices via Bluetooth, but it doesn’t come with a USB dongle. If you need a dongle, the MX Anywhere 3S is compatible with the Logi Bolt receiver , but you’ll have to buy one separately, and there’s nowhere inside the mouse to store it.

Logitech claims the MX Anywhere 3S has 70 days of battery life. We haven’t been able to test this yet, but the company’s battery-life claims on its other mice have proved accurate in our testing. This battery life will degrade over time. And though iFixit currently sells replacement batteries for previous models of the MX Anywhere line, replacements for the 3S are not yet available as of this writing. We hope to see them soon.

The MX Anywhere 3S will work on any surface. Like our upgrade pick, the MX Anywhere 3S has a Logitech Darkfield (PDF) sensor, so it will also work on glass and mirrors.

If you want a contoured mouse for lefties: The Logitech Signature M650L Left is the most comfortable left-handed mouse we’ve tested so far, thanks to its contoured shape and well-placed side buttons. In an attempt to accommodate lefties, many companies make ambidextrous mice with buttons on both sides, but our testers found that those buttons only get in the way. The M650L Left has silent clicks and a mediocre scroll wheel, and our testers with average-size hands found the M650L to be a bit long for a comfortable palm grip.

If you’re looking for a small, ambidextrous option: The Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 is a simple, small, and comfortable symmetrical mouse. Its shape works for both lefties and righties, and our panel testers liked its grip, shape, button selection, and scroll wheel. But it’s smaller than our other picks, it has fewer buttons, and it can connect to just one device at a time via Bluetooth. Microsoft has also discontinued its peripherals , so once the remaining stock is gone, it’s gone for good.

If you’re interested in a vertical mouse: On days when my wrist pain flares up, I swap to the Logitech Lift . Of the vertical mice I’ve tested over the years, the Lift has the most comfortable size and shape, and it holds my wrist at a neutral angle. Its buttons are all easy to reach and to activate, and it can connect to multiple devices via Bluetooth or its included USB dongle. Logitech also sells a left-handed model , as well as a Mac version .

If you don’t need Bluetooth: We still love the Logitech Marathon Mouse M705 because it’s comfortable to use, its sensor tracks smoothly, and it has years of battery life. But it lacks Bluetooth, and it connects only via USB dongle—if you’re confident that you don’t need Bluetooth, it’s a great option.

If you want a mouse that’s good for occasional gaming: The Razer Basilisk X HyperSpeed is our favorite cheap wireless gaming mouse . It’s extremely comfortable, it has a sensor designed for gaming and a customizable scroll wheel, and it can connect via Bluetooth or USB dongle. The Basilisk X HyperSpeed is more expensive, and it’s overkill for most people’s needs, but it’s the best option if you play games sometimes.

At CES 2024, Lenovo announced the Yoga Pro Mouse which will be available in April for $40. The HP 690 Rechargeable Wireless Mouse is available now for $60.

Incase also announced that it will be resurrecting some of Microsoft’s discontinued keyboards and mice , including the Mobile Mouse 1850, a variant of the Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 we recommend if you need a small, ambidextrous option . We plan to test Incase’s new models when they’re available later this year.

In several rounds of testing over the years, we’ve dismissed mice for not having Bluetooth, for having too few buttons, for having tracking issues, for feeling cheap, and for being just plain uncomfortable to use.

Legion Go Update 04.09.2024

Hi Everyone, 

Wanted to give you a heads up that the next Legion Space Update (1.0.2.[8 or 9]) will be rolled out to everyone very soon.

It will include:

• New controller (0240401A) and main unit (0240403A) firmware
• Ability to add/edit layouts for Game Pad and FPS mode
• Ability to remap almost every button to controller buttons, mouse buttons, keyboard keys, and key combinations
• You can then change button mapping profiles from the right menu to any you have previously created/edited
• Charge limit is set to 80% (+/- 5%) which is the best setting to prolong the life of the Legion Go Battery
• Added Alt+Esc to the quick settings menu
• Added a Link in the right menu help section that directs to the Legion Go community forum
• Driver updates were optimized a bit and now list some of the currently installed versions.
• Optimized the FPS limiter control, it is now fully customizable on a single sliding scale to any value between 30 and 144
• Added a notification that the FPS limiter will be disabled when RSR is in use
• Optimized controller plug/unplug notifications
• Fixed an issue where the Legion L/R key were being invalidated under admin accounts in windows

Some of these will need to be further optimized/improved in future updates but should serve as a good foundation in the mean time.

Future improvements will likely include the ability to map the Xbox key, and per-game profiles (though you can name a profile for a specific game and switch to it manually already).  These updates, like the one above, will also take quite a while.

The next two major priorities will focus on a UI overhaul and structural adjustments as well as better Gyro implementation.

VGA driver update should be coming relatively soon as well, path to resolve the current bug that is gating the release has been identified, need to fix and test and then will release.

As we chart the course for the future of Legion Go, I want to share a personal update with you. While I care about and am deeply appreciative of this community, my direct involvement in product development (and thus my ability to advocate on your behalf) has been reduced. This is due in part to a strategic decision to leverage a broader array of feedback channels. However, please know that your voices and perspectives remain invaluable to our team, and there are systems in place to ensure that customer feedback continues to shape the evolution of Legion Go. Your engagement has been, and always will be, a driving force behind our innovation.

Hi Ben thanks for the update. For the button mapping are we going to be able to make a button turbo? Thank you.

Thank you for all of your hard work Ben. What are these “ broader array of feedback channels” that are available to us?

I just want to know I am barking up the right tree(s).

Thanks for the update Ben! Always appreciated! Quick question though about the vga info. Does this info in way include the implementation of AFMF and portrait orientation?

Hi Ben - All I care about is the joystick reliability - circularity and corner deadzones, as this is the most basic of basic functionality. Please let me know how this work is progressing. Thanks.

Thank you Ben!!!

Y’all got Ben in trouble and now he was demoted to kitchen and mop duty. Now we will have to start a go fund me to “SAVE BEN” from working in the Lenovo kitchen.

With the new firmware update will this fix the battery drain issue?

battery drain. | Lenovo Gaming (US)

Can someone explain how the battery limiting works? I turned it on and my battery was at 74%... It's still on, but the battery has charged to 89% now.  What gives? 

Thanks a lot for these updates!

I tested Lenovo's dual-screen laptop and it improved my productivity in profound ways

ZDNET's key takeaways

• The Lenovo Yoga Book 9i features two beautiful OLED screens that can fold and be orientated in various ways.
• It offers solid performance, great battery life, and an ambitious design that doesn't compromise usability.
• At a starting price of $1,980, the laptop doesn't come cheap. But in a price range full of less-exciting options, the Yoga Book 9i may be worth the splurge.

When Lenovo initially showed off its dual-screen Yoga Book 9i laptop at CES 2023, my mind wasn't blown and my jaw didn't drop to the floor. Instead, I looked at the twin OLED displays before me, the detachable keyboard and kickstand, the stylus and pen, and thought to myself, "Okay, this actually seems practical."

There's no question that the laptop looks unique. It's not every day you see a laptop with two 13.3-inch displays, but Lenovo is no stranger to making weird things. Let's all remember that its strapped E-Ink displays to laptops before, has made foldable laptops a thing, and even floated the idea of transparent laptops in the past.

Also:  I went hands-on with Lenovo's transparent laptop at MWC, and it's surprisingly functional

A laptop with two screens is perhaps one of the tamest designs it has come up with, and I'm a big fan of it. We were left impressed with last year's model , if a bit let down by some of the shortcomings that come with a laptop of this caliber. For 2024, Lenovo has thrown in an upgraded processor and some extra software features while keeping the design exactly the same.

It's given me a chance to revisit the idea of having two screens on my laptop, and once again, it's tempting me to switch away from my boring-in-comparison MacBook Pro.

Specifications (as reviewed)

Living with a dual-screen laptop.

Does it look excessive on the outside? Yes, but having two 13.3-inch screens at your disposal is the most productivity-friendly advantage of buying the Yoga Book 9i. Not only has Lenovo included two beautiful OLED panels, but they're plenty versatile, too.

Using the included kickstand, you can position the laptop horizontally so that the displays are stacked on top of each other, or vertically so that the laptop opens like a book (pictured below). I've found both of these orientations incredibly helpful, and I regularly rotate between the two depending on what I'm doing. 

For example, if I'm writing a review (like this one) and referencing a reviewer's guide or product specs, it's great to have the displays in book mode so I can see each document fully without having to scroll. When the displays are stacked, I enjoy watching a podcast on one while I get work done on the other.

You can also prop the top display up like a normal laptop and leave the lower display on your desk. Then, place the keyboard on top of the lower display and you've got yourself a more traditional-looking laptop, virtual trackpad and all. Bring the keyboard down a bit and an array of widgets will appear between the top display and the Function row. You can see everything from the weather to the latest news, although I must admit that I didn't use this feature all that often.

There's a lot that the dual-screen design of the Yoga Book 9i enables, and the versatility of it all is simply unmatched by more conventional laptops . It's like a blank canvas made of OLED screens -- you can literally do whatever you want with them, orient them the way you want, and it can all be packed up and taken on the go.

Switching back to my single-screen MacBook Pro was, to put it lightly, tough. I missed having all the extra screen real estate and the ability to have two full documents open side-by-side while writing. I felt limited in a way that I wasn't expecting, which says a lot about how effective Lenovo's dual-screen design is.

How does it perform?

The twin 13.3-inch OLED displays look exceptional with deep black levels, vibrant colors, and 400 nits of brightness (a.k.a. enough for most lighting situations). They each sport 2.8K resolutions, so everything looks crisp, and Lenovo even includes 16:10 aspect ratios so you get a bit extra vertical room. They're also Dolby Vision certified. I have zero complaints about these screens, besides the fact they only have 60Hz refresh rates.

Also:  Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Fold is the most bizarre, fun, and expensive laptop I've ever tested

The only physical difference you'll spot between the old and new Yoga Book 9i models is on the keyboard, which now includes a Microsoft Copilot key , making it easier to fire a command at the Windows' AI chatbot.

Under the hood, you'll find one of the only upgrades for the 2024 edition of the Yoga Book 9i: a new processor. Lenovo includes Intel's Core Ultra series chipsets, with a Core Ultra 7 that's optimized for AI tasks. It's paired with Intel's Iris Xe graphics (which means you won't be doing a lot of gaming on this laptop), 16GB of RAM (upgradable to 32GB at checkout), and 1TB of storage.

The verdict? It's a speedy machine. The Core Ultra processor feels snappier than the 13th-generation Core i7 chip that was in last year's model, and I can easily breeze through my daily tasks of writing articles in Google Docs, managing my inbox and calendar, cycling through the latest country music on Spotify, and editing photos in Lightroom. (Side note: If you care about audio quality, get the Yoga Book 9i -- it has some of the best speakers I've ever heard on a laptop.)

Also:  I tested Dell's 2024 XPS 14 laptop and can't recommend it enough

To power the Yoga Book 9i, Lenovo includes an 80W battery that's rated for about seven to eight hours of usage on a full charge. In my testing, I was able to get to about seven hours of usage before it conked out, which is perfectly fine since 1.) this laptop has two screens and 2.) some pricier laptops like the Surface Laptop Studio 2 can't get anywhere near that.

Charging the laptop is as straightforward as it comes. There's a Rapid Charge adapter in the box that gives you about two hours of runtime with just 15 minutes of charging. I found this mostly to be true, although you have to shut the lid if you want charging speeds to really pick up.

Evaluating Lenovo's dual-screen software

With such unique hardware, Lenovo had to build unique software for Windows 11 so that it behaves properly and gives you extra functionality.

For the most part, the software features work well. All the gestures I've tried have worked reliably, from swiping full-screen apps across displays to pulling up the virtual keyboard. There's a new app called User Center that gives you a rundown of all the gestures you can use, and I appreciate the ability to adjust the brightness of each individual screen. Plus, there's a neat pop-up feature at the top of the displays that lets you snap your windows to an area of the screen without having to drag it far.

Also: This ultraportable Lenovo laptop has a secret Trackpoint function, among other hidden features

Of course, all that glitters isn't always gold. The last time I used the Yoga Book 9i, some of Lenovo's custom software work had enough bugs that I didn't want to use it. With this year's model, I feel similarly about one particular aspect: Laptop mode.

This is when you prop the Yoga Book 9i up like a laptop and set the keyboard on top of the upper section of the lower display to turn it into a "normal" laptop. It looks like a genius idea at first, but the lower display never turns off since it has to give you a trackpad below the keyboard, and since the display doesn't turn off, apps and pop-ups will appear underneath your keyboard for no reason.

It's weird; I've had apps like Chrome and Spotify show up on the lower display while I'm using the physical keyboard for no reason. They just… wind up there. You then have to pick the keyboard up and move the windows around, which isn't ideal.

Also: How Lenovo works on dismantling AI bias while building laptops

I'll give Lenovo credit, the new Yoga Book 9i feels smoother than the old one did. I don't notice as much scruff or weird glitches with the software, and the bundled Bluetooth keyboard doesn't produce nearly as many double-key entries as before. Still, it's not a perfect experience, which is something to keep in mind if you're going to spend $2,000 on a laptop.

One thing to keep in mind

Having a laptop with two screens means you'll have to lug around a separate keyboard, mouse, and kickstand, all three of which (plus a stylus) come in the box. It's a lot of separate things you have to remember to bring, and I'm going to be honest with you, it can be inconvenient.

When I'm working on my MacBook or -- quite frankly -- any other laptop in my arsenal, all I have to do is close the lid and load it into my backpack when I'm finished. With the Yoga Book 9i, I have to close the laptop > collapse the kickstand > place the keyboard inside the collapsed kickstand > stack the keyboard/kickstand combo, mouse, and stylus on top of the laptop > shove it all in my bag and pray I can find it later when it's time to go back to work.

Of course, you'll eventually get used to it, but it'll never be as convenient as shutting your laptop lid and moving on with your day.

ZDNET's buying advice

I really dig the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i . I love how futuristic the dual-screen design is, and I appreciate the upgrades Lenovo has made to performance and software stability.

That being said, the Yoga Book 9i starts at $2,000, which is a lot of money. For the same price, you can get a lot of "boring" laptops with single displays that offer better performance, battery life, and portability. Dell's XPS 14 , Apple's 14-inch MacBook Pro , and Lenovo's own Yoga 9i are just some examples., so you have to ask yourself whether you need two separate screens or if you can get by with one and take advantage of better performance and battery life. 

If none of that matters to you and you're cool with living with the Yoga Book 9i's quirky design, I say go for it. It's an immensely helpful tool to have in your arsenal, and it pushes the boundaries of what it means to be a laptop just enough that it doesn't lose touch with its functionality.

Lenovo Slim 7i Review: A Compact, Sturdy Midpriced Laptop With an OLED Screen

With an OLED display and a solid build, this is a rugged option for mainstream shoppers, but other touches are decidedly midrange.

Our Experts

CNET’s expert staff reviews and rates dozens of new products and services each month, building on more than a quarter century of expertise.

Lenovo Slim 7i (14IMH9)

• Rugged, rigid all-metal chassis
• Rich colors and stellar contrast from OLED display
• Quad speakers produce good sound
• Generous 32GB of RAM and 1TB SSD
• Display resolution merely adequate
• So-so touchpad
• No Windows Studio Effects for webcam

The Lenovo Slim 7i is a sturdy and compact laptop that splits the difference between mainstream and premium. Its chief attraction is the 14-inch OLED touch display that boasts vivid colors and stellar contrast. Unlike the 2.8K OLED panels on similarly sized laptops such as the HP Spectre x360 14 or Lenovo ThinkPad Z13 Gen 2 , however, the Slim 7i's display offers a pedestrian 1,920x1,200-pixel resolution. It suffices for the size, but text isn't quite as sharp as it is on a 2.8K OLED display. Inside, the laptop features an Intel Core Ultra CPU, an ample 32GB of RAM and integrated Intel Arc graphics.

The Slim 7i's aluminum enclosure is of premium quality and passed MIL-STD 810H tests for ruggedness. It feels rock solid and yet is thin and light. It's not quite the head-turner as the Spectre x360 14 and lacks its awesome haptic touchpad, but it also costs less than the HP. On the flip side, its build quality and display are superior to those of the Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7440 and Acer Swift Go 14 , each of which is slightly cheaper at $1,000. The Sim 7i is a good choice if you are looking for a 14-inch OLED laptop but can't stretch to afford the HP Spectre x360 14 and don't need its two-in-one convertibility.

The Lenovo Slim 7i (model 14IMH9) starts at $1,041 for a configuration that features an Intel Core Ultra 5 125H CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB solid-state drive. Our test system features a pair of upgrades to the Core Ultra 7 155H chip and 32GB of RAM and costs $1,240. The lone display option is a 14-inch OLED panel with a 1,920x1,200-pixel resolution and touch support. 

According to Lenovo, our test configuration will be available later in April at Costco for $999. At that price, the Slim 7i becomes a great deal. Seldom do you find an OLED display along with that much memory and solid-state storage wrapped in a durable, all-metal chassis at that price. We will update this review with a potential bump to the overall rating when it hits shelves at Costco.

The system is labeled as the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Gen 9 in the UK and Australia, despite lacking a 360-degree hinge that would give it flexible two-in-one capabilities that the Yoga name would suggest. It starts at £1,150 in the UK and AU$1,639 in Australia .

In labs testing, the Slim 7i's benchmark results were in range of the Acer Swift Go 14, Dell Inspiron 14 Plus and HP Spectre x360 14, each of which features the same Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor as the Slim 7i, but it never managed to lead the pack on any test. Its graphics performance trailed the other Core Ultra laptops only on the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Unlimited test; on Time Spy and Fire Strike Ultra it was roughly on par with the other laptops using Intel's integrated Arc GPU. The AMD-based Slim Pro 7 led the way on the graphics tests because it was the only laptop among the comparison systems to feature a discrete RTX 3050 GPU. That model can frequently be found at Best Buy for less than $1,000 and is a better pick for creatives who will use the laptop for graphics work.

OLED laptops rarely excel in the area of battery life, and the Slim 7i is no exception. It lasted 9 hours and 40 minutes on our online streaming battery drain test, which should be ample time for most work or school days but still shorter than the runtime of competing laptops. 

Compact and rugged

The Slim 7i's overall look is rather corporate, with a lot of dull gray, but also thin and compact like modern corporate systems: less than 0.6-inch thick and weighing a trim 3.2 pounds, average for its size.

When you pick it up you notice its premium build. The all-aluminum chassis is rigid, with hardly any flex that plagues lesser aluminum and plastic shells. It lacks the Spectre x360 14's gorgeous, matte-black aesthetic, but the Slim 7i does share some nice design elements with HP's pricier two-in-one, including smooth, gently rounded edges and corners. They give the laptop a sleek look, and the lack of sharp corners makes it comfortable to carry the laptop and also to rest your palms on its front edge when typing and mousing. 

And like the HP, the Slim 7i has a great display hinge that keeps the display firmly in place without any wobble yet still glides smoothly when you adjust the display or close the laptop. The overall build quality is on par with the pricier HP and a notch or two above what you get with the slightly cheaper Acer Swift Go 14 or Dell Inspiron 14 Plus.

The Slim 7i looks nearly identical to the 14.5-inch, AMD-based Lenovo Slim Pro 7 I reviewed last year. And like the earlier unit, the Slim 7i offers MIL-STD 810H ruggedness for an ability to withstand drops, vibration, shock, dust and extreme temperatures. It makes the system a good choice for students who want a laptop that will withstand the scrapes and dings it'll almost assuredly receive over four years of regular use. And it accommodates student budgets at the expected $999 Costco price tag.

The best feature of the Slim 7i is its 14-inch OLED display; OLED delivers excellent contrast thanks to effectively zero-nit blacks and vivid colors. Testing with a SpyderX Elite colorimeter, the display covered 100% of the sRGB and P3 color spaces and 94% of Adobe RGB. I also measured a peak brightness of 382 nits, which is just shy of its 400-nit rating but should be bright enough for most environments outside of direct sunlight outside. 

As great as images look on the OLED panel, text appears slightly fuzzy and gray, lacking the sharpness you get with a higher-resolution display like the Spectre x360 14's 2.8K OLED panel or even the 2.2K IPS LCD on the Inspiron 14 Plus. It's not a deal-breaker, but if your job or schoolwork involves a lot of reading, you'll appreciate even a bump to a 2.2K display for staring at text for long stretches.

With quad speakers, the Slim 7i is more than just a work laptop. The four two-watt speakers produce well-rounded audio. Dialogue sounds clear and effects sound realistic when watching shows and movies, and I even found myself enjoying music playback, although I wish it offered more bass. 

The keyboard has widely spaced keys and delivers a comfortable and quiet typing experience. It includes the  dedicated Microsoft Copilot key , which opens a panel for Microsoft's AI assistant, replacing the right-Ctrl key on the bottom row. Expect this to become common on Windows laptops.

The good news is the touchpad has a glass surface that's smoother than a plastic touchpad. The bad news, depending on your preferences, is that it's mechanical and not haptic. I find the click response has too much travel and sounds "clacky." The rest of the laptop feels so sturdy and rigid, making the touchpad's subpar click response seem all the more disappointing.

The 1080p webcam delivers a sharp, fairly grain-free image but lacks support for Windows Studio Effects -- AI-based automatic framing, background blurring and noise reduction plus AI-aided noise cancellation for the microphone -- found on other Core Ultra laptops I've reviewed. While the Lenovo Vantage app has noise cancellation features for the microphone, I found them to be less effective at removing or reducing background noise than the Spectre x360 14 or Acer Swift Go 14.

The Lenovo Slim 7i has the misfortune of arriving on the heels of the HP Spectre x360 14, one of my favorite laptops from the past year. And while it's true the HP can cost hundreds more, HP's discounts at the time of this writing drop the price to $1,360 for the same configuration as our Slim 7i test system. That's only $120 more than the cost of the Slim 7i and well worth the added cost just for the HP's higher-resolution OLED display and huge, haptic touchpad. And the appeal of the Spectre x360 14 only grows when you consider its superior design, two-in-one versatility and better webcam, which has a high-res 9-megapixel sensor and offers Windows Studio Effects. 

When the Slim 7i hits Costco for $999, however, we will need to revisit these two 14-inch OLED laptops and reassess their relative value.

How we test computers

The review process for laptops, desktops, tablets and other computerlike devices consists of two parts: performance testing under controlled conditions in the CNET Labs and extensive hands-on use by our expert reviewers. This includes evaluating a device's aesthetics, ergonomics and features. A final review verdict is a combination of both objective and subjective judgments. 

The list of benchmarking software we use changes over time as the devices we test evolve. The most important core tests we're currently running on every compatible computer include  Primate Labs Geekbench 6 , Cinebench R23 , PCMark 10 and 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra . 

A more detailed description of each benchmark and how we use it can be found on our How We Test Computers page.

Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I Review: Basic PC Gaming on the Go

The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I is a gaming laptop that offers a good, basic-level gaming experience. But is it for everyone?

Key Takeaways

• Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I offers an affordable, entry-level gaming experience for older or less demanding games.
• Good FHD display with a high refresh rate, but the specs are unable to handle graphic-intensive games.
• Decent design and port selection, plus a passable keyboard and trackpad, but less than stellar battery life.

While you may know Lenovo for it’s Thinkpad lineup and more, the company does sell laptops that are specific for gaming. The Lenovo LOQ collection of laptops is one of the lineups, and the LOQ 15IAX9I model provides a decent entry-level gaming experience for less-demanding games, but you should know its limits before you decide whether to buy it.

Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I

The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I laptop can be an excellent way to experience older PC gaming for a relatively reasonable price. But since it is intended to be an entry-level machine, its Intel Arc GPU can't handle more graphics-intensive games. Only consider picking up the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I if you know what games the laptop can handle.

• Affordable price
• FHD, high refresh display
• Good design
• Can't handle graphic-intensive games
• Not very good battery life

A Basic, Yet Still Good Design

The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I has, what I would call, a basic, but good design. One of the reasons why I say it is a basic design is that the laptop doesn’t do anything that sets it apart from other Windows laptops. We’ve seen other laptops on the market with some kind of RGB lighting around the casing or other tricks like having two displays (practicality there is questionable, but still).

None of that is here on this Lenovo laptop. The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I is also made of plastic, commonly found on many PC laptops.

At the bottom of the laptop, there are multiple rubber feet that help lift the laptop up from the table surface to help with airflow, since there are vents on the bottom as well. One interesting fact to point out about the laptop is that the lid doesn't cover the whole laptop, just like Alienware laptops.

For color options, the LOQ 15IAX9I only comes in one color - what Lenovo calls Luna Grey. Overall, I like the color. It looks similar to Space Gray on Apple’s MacBooks, and it fits with the gaming laptop aesthetic.

There is one thing that bugs me with this laptop that also extends to a lot of other PC laptops; the stickers that indicate what kind of processor and GPU it features. I think these stickers only take away from the look of the laptop and make it appear cheap. I wish that wasn't the case.

The LOQ 15IAX9I’s design isn't super notable or premium, but it feels solid enough that it doesn’t feel cheap, despite the materials used. It aesthetically, also fits the theme of a gaming laptop.

The FHD Display Isn’t the Best, But Gets the Job Done

For the display, the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I uses a FHD (1080p) IPS panel, with a peak brightness level of 300 nits for the display. When it comes to the display's refresh rate, it is up to 144Hz, which is great to have for enjoying smooth animations and higher FPS in games. The LOQ 15IAX9I’s display is also not a touch screen, which shouldn’t concern many given that this is a gaming laptop.

I’m not a big fan of touchscreens on a laptop myself, so I don’t miss it here.

While this particular model doesn’t feature a 1440p resolution or higher, I think the LOQ 15IAX9I’s FHD display is still pretty usable. I’m someone who is used to looking at 4K and 5K displays on a regular basis. And even though I do notice the difference in quality, using a 1080p laptop display at this price point isn’t a deal-breaker.

Additionally, companies like Razor and Alienware have laptops that include FHD displays as well, so it's not uncommon even among companies that sell laptops with better screens. If you really desire a display that is beyond 1080p, there is a model that offers a QHD (1440p) screen, so the option is there for you. With that model, you also get a bump in peak brightness (350 nits) and a higher refresh rate (165Hz).

Performance for Light Gaming on the Go

So, what are the specs of the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I? The version I tested is outfitted with a 12th-generation Intel Core i5 12450HX (clocked at 2.40 GHz). For the RAM and GPU, this model has 12GB of RAM and Intel Arc A530M graphics, along with Intel UHD graphics. The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I also comes with a 512GB SSD.

Moving over to benchmarks, we started with 3D Mark's Wild Life Extreme graphics test. The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I’s Intel Arc A530M got a score of 10,705. In the Time Spy test, the CPU score was 7,398, with an overall score of 6,154. Both of these tests were conducted with the laptop connected to power.

Now that we've covered the numbers, let's cover the actual gaming experience. For playing older games, such as Call of Duty: World At War or Left 4 Dead 2, the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I handles them very well, as you may expect. Using the built-in FPS counter on Steam, Left 4 Dead 2 would consistently run around 290FPS with all the graphics settings set to High, besides the Shader Detail setting in the game. I didn’t experience any significant frame drops or performance issues.

For Call of Duty: World at War, the game would stay around 90FPS. Again, this is all while the laptop was connected to power.

However, you should know that the specs of this laptop, as configured, don't hold up to more modern games. When playing Halo Infinite, which requires at least an AMD RX 570 or an Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti for the GPU (according to the game's Steam store page), the experience was rough, and I would almost call it borderline unplayable with inconsistent frame rates from map to map and a lot of loss in detail overall.

I think this configuration of the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I is good if you want to run less demanding or older games. Perhaps you are mainly a console player, but you want access to an old classic game that you can’t get on your existing system or want to play with friends on Steam. In my case, that was Left 4 Dead 2, and since macOS no longer supports 32-bit apps, the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I was a good option.

A Port Selection for Multiple Scenarios

The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I offers a fair number of ports for use with peripherals. On the right side of the laptop, you get a USB-C port, USB-A, and a headphone jack. On the same side, there is also a webcam shutter switch, so you don’t have to add one of those camera covers yourself. However, most of the ports are on the backside of the laptop, similar to what Dell does with its Alienware laptops. At the back, there are two more USB-A ports, built-in ethernet, HDMI, and the DC port for charging the computer.

The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I offers a solid selection of ports that are perfect for gaming. An ethernet port for very fast internet speeds, USB-A for connecting external mice or controllers, HDMI for connecting the laptop to a larger display, and more.

The Keyboard and Trackpad Are Passable

The experience of using the keyboard on the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I is pretty decent. The keys have a fair amount of key travel, and they don’t feel clunky to use. There is backlighting for each individual key and it is fairly bright too. It’s important to point out that, like other PC laptops, there is a fair amount of flexing when typing on the keyboard, so keep that in mind.

I have mixed feelings about the trackpad. It’s not the best I have used. Full disclaimer: I am used to using MacBook trackpads, which are widely considered to be some of the best on any laptop. But that's not to say that the Lenovo's trackpad is terrible. You can click from almost anywhere on the trackpad (except for the very top of it), which is good.

And that also means that there isn’t a dedicated click button to take up space on the laptop. I was surprised to see that, by default, you could also just tap on the trackpad to select things. Thankfully, you can turn that off in settings, which is what I did since I encountered accidental clicks fairly often, and turning off the setting largely resolved it.

But the trackpad isn’t something I found myself wanting to use much at all. It just isn’t as satisfying to use as other trackpads, likely due to it seemingly not using glass or it not using vibrations to replicate a click like Apple’s Force Touch trackpads.

I would certainly use it for short spans of time when doing anything non-gaming related. But if you are thinking of using it for gaming, I would steer you towards purchasing a dedicated gaming mouse (like what many PC gamers use) or a controller, if you prefer that over a keyboard and mouse.

Battery Life that Isn't Outstanding

Battery life on gaming laptops is arguably not super crucial, since games can just tear through your battery with ease. Despite that, you may want to use this laptop for something other than gaming occasionally, so it’s worth knowing what it is capable of. Lenovo states that the LOQ 15IAX9I can get up to six hours of battery life, which is not very impressive.

Even when the LOQ 15IAX9I was sitting doing nothing besides having the screen and keyboard lit up, the computer’s battery would drop considerably over a short period of time. There certainly are other PC laptops on the market with better battery life. According to PC Magazine , laptops such as the HP Spectre x360 14 (2024) and the HP Dragonfly G4 achieved more than 18 hours of battery life during testing. And the HP Spectre x360 14 (2024) also has Intel Arc graphics on board, just like the LOQ 15IAX9I.

If you plan to use the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I primarily for gaming, then battery life shouldn’t be a major issue, since you will likely keep it plugged in not only for battery reasons, but also for better performance. But for other use cases, don't expect it to last all day.

Should You Buy the Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I?

Yes, but only if you don't want to play newer, more graphic-intensive games. The Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9I offers a good experience for older games with this model's specs. But if you want to play games like Halo Infinite or others, you will either need a laptop with better specs or build a gaming PC desktop yourself, which may be the overall better choice than purchasing a gaming laptop.

10 Best Greece Cruises, According to Travel Experts

These are the best Greece cruises for island hopping with ease.

With its stunning beaches, rich history, iconic landmarks, and delectable cuisine, a trip to Greece is always a great idea. However, since the nation is home to more than 6,000 islands — some of which are only accessible by boat — your best bet is to explore via cruise. Just take it from Rob Clabbers, Travel + Leisure A-List travel advisor and Q Cruise + Travel founder, who tells T+L that “Greece and the Greek isles are just the perfect destinations to explore by ship” since “a cruise allows you to see more islands and gives you a unique vantage point.” Several of the best Greece cruises also include visits to neighboring countries like Turkey and Italy, for example, which allow travelers to experience several cultures and countries in one action-packed trip. Intrigued? We don’t blame you: Ahead, check out our favorite Greece cruises for every type of traveler, along with itinerary recommendations and expert insight.

Rob Clabbers is a T+L A-List travel advisor and founder of Q Cruise + Travel, a Chicago-based travel agency. 

Mary Curry is a T+L A-list travel advisor and small ship specialist.

Kari Dillon is the owner of Marvelous Mouse Travels, an agency specializing in theme park and cruise vacations.

Megan Guinnup is a travel agent with Marvelous Mouse Travels.

Windstar Cruises

According to Clabbers, this small luxury cruise line is perfect for those who prefer “a smaller, more casual yacht-style experience.” Per the pro, the onboard vibes are best described as “upscale, but not stuffy or over-the-top.” It’s also worth noting that “each ship offers a water sports platform with kayaks, water trampolines, stand-up paddling, snorkel gear, floating carpets, and other ‘toys’ that are deployed (weather and location permitting, of course) at least once on most Greek itineraries.” 

Itinerary: While you can’t go wrong with any of Windstar’s Greece itineraries, Clabbers is quick to call out the popular Treasures of the Greek Isles voyage, which sets sail each week from May through October. Passengers can visit beloved ports of call like Mykonos and Santorini, along with “lesser-known (and less-crowded!) places like Monemvasia and Patmos.” As part of the experience, guests have the unique opportunity to feast among the ruins in neighboring Turkey as part of the line’s complimentary Evening in Ephesus “after-hours” event, which, per Clabbers, features a decadent five-course dinner accompanied by a chamber orchestra. Speaking of culinary offerings, it’s worth mentioning that Windstar is the official cruise line partner of the esteemed James Beard Foundation, which means you can expect some of the top eats at sea.

Explora Journeys

“A new entrant in the luxury travel industry, Explora Journeys offers all the style and comfort of a modern European luxury resort property on its 922-guest yacht-inspired Explora I and, launching later this year, Explora II, ” explains Clabbers. The line has taken the industry by storm, doing away with cliche cruise staples like main dining rooms, large buffets, and notoriously small staterooms. Instead, says Clabbers, guests can choose from a selection of “excellent restaurants that other companies would call specialty restaurants,” as well as “four swimming pools, each with their own vibe,” and all-suite accommodations, some of which boast private plunge pools. Per the pro, it’s worth noting that “Explora Journeys is the first luxury line that offers a dedicated youth activity program and facility year-round;” as such, it’s an excellent option for multi-generational families looking to cruise Greece in style. 

Itinerary: Sailing round-trip from Athens, the aptly named eight-night A Journey from Athens to Athens itinerary includes a mix of popular ports like Mykonos and Santorini, along with hidden-gem locales like Syros, which is famous for its neoclassical architecture, a buzzy main town, and (essentially) crowd-free beaches. The cruise also visits the serene resort town of Marmaris in Turkey before heading to its final port of call, Kos , a gorgeous Greek island known for its sandy beaches, white-washed buildings, and historical sites.

Celebrity Cruises

According to Clabbers, " Celebrity Cruises was launched by a Greek shipping family," so the line has deep ties to — and many officers who hail from — the country. What’s more, he says, "When you visit Greece, they are taking you to their homeland, and it shows in their passion and love of the Hellenic nation." The line offers a range of larger ships and, thus, more options between accommodations (from economical inside rooms to luxurious suites in The Retreat), itineraries, restaurants, and entertainment; as such, Celebrity is "a great option for adults and families who like more activities on their ship." 

Itinerary: The nine-night Best Of Greece itinerary cruises round-trip from Athens on select dates from May to October and takes place aboard the 2,170-passenger Celebrity Infinity , which Clabbers described as one of the line’s “smaller and more seasoned ships.” The first port of call is Santorini, followed by Ephesus in Turkey and Mykonos. “Additionally,” says Clabbers, " Infinity   travels to Volos and Thessaloniki, ports that are not typically visited by large ships.” Kavala, located in the northern part of the country, serves as the final port of call before heading back to Athens. Here, cruisers can enjoy a mix of history, culture, and architecture — plus some seriously stunning landscapes (from lagoons and lakes to wetlands and beaches) along with lush flora and fauna.

Silversea offers a variety of Greece cruise itineraries, and it’s one of few truly luxe all-inclusive cruise lines. Per Clabbers, the 596-passenger Silver Moon offers all-suite accommodations and a classic small-ship feel — complete with excellent meals, beverages, and shore excursions all included in your cruise fare. Speaking of the latter, he says, “The inclusion of shore excursions also makes it easy to dive deeper into Greek culture and culinary experiences.” 

Itinerary: While you can’t go wrong with any of Silversea’s Greek itineraries, Clabbers especially recommends the seven-night Athens to Athens cruise, which “calls on highlights, but adds places like Souda Bay in Crete, Nafplion, Patmos, and Rhodes ,” where he recommends visiting the “temple ruins at Lindos, with views over the Mediterranean, and then walk in the footsteps of the Crusaders in the old town.” The cruise also stops in Nafplion, which, despite its romantic seaside setting and lovely beaches, is yet to be uncovered by most American travelers — for now, at least.

Variety Cruises

According to T+L A-list travel advisor and small ship specialist Mary Curry , this local Greek cruise line offers its own fleet of yachts, most carrying fewer than 50 passengers. Since the ships are so small, says Curry, “you can travel a bit further off the beaten path.” Variety offers a handful of Greece itineraries, including specially themed hiking and wine cruises.

Itinerary: Travelers craving a true off-the-beaten-path experience can book the seven-night Unexplored Greece voyage, which sails round-trip from Athens. The first port of call is Ikira, a tiny island known for its hot springs that also happens to be one of the world’s Blue Zones. Then, it’s off to Patmos, known for its fascinating history and unspoiled beaches, before overnighting in Lipsi, a laid-back isle famous for its gorgeous scenery. On board, guests can taste the destination’s famous wine, Aposperitis. The fun continues in Levintha, inhabited by a single family who raises animals and runs a restaurant where guests can enjoy fresh-caught fish. After, it’s off to Amorgos, where scenic hiking and beautiful beaches abound. The next day, you’ll stop at Panagia Hozoviotissa, a cliffside monastery dating back to the 10th century, before heading to Koufonisia, which boasts majestic caves and rock pools accessible only by boat (thankfully, Variety as you covered). The final stop of the day is the serene island of Iraklia, which offers clear-blue waters ideal for swimming. After remaining here overnight, you’ll head to the final port of call, Serifos, where guests can visit a remote beach, followed by an onboard BBQ feast to refuel before heading to Chora, a fairy-tale village.

This French-owned cruise line offers an impressive fleet of small luxury ships. Additionally, says Curry, “Most cabins have private balconies, and travelers who plan early are rewarded with excellent value for the money.” What’s especially unique about Pontant, explains the pro, is that they “partner with Smithsonian Journeys on select departures to offer an enrichment program of included lectures and shore excursions in each port.”

Itinerary: Curry especially recommends the seven-night Cruising the Greek Islands of the Southern Aegean sailing, which will cruise round-trip from Athens in July and October 2025. The cruise calls on aforementioned spots like Patmos, Rhodes, and Amorgos before visiting Adamas in Milos, a volcanic island teeming with postcard-worthy white-washed towns and breathtakingly beautiful beaches. Adamas itself is a tiny fishing port where colorful boats shimmer against the blue waters. Finally, it’s off to Mykonos and Napflion before finally disembarking in Athens.

Disney Cruise Line

Disney Cruise Line is world-famous for its exciting onboard offerings for children of all ages — including character and superhero meet-and-greets, dining options themed after beloved Disney princesses, and live performances galore — making it a favorite for families hoping for a fun-filled Greece vacation.

Itinerary: "Setting sail aboard the Disney Dream on the seven-night Mediterranean with Greek Isles itinerary is nothing short of magical!" says Megan Guinnup , a travel agent with Marvelous Mouse Travels . Cruising round-trip from Rome, the ship calls on Naples before exploring Greece. In addition to popular ports like Athens and Mykonos, you'll also visit Chania on the island of Crete, which offers a bustling harbor, exquisite architecture, and cobblestone streets that look like they were plucked straight from a (Disney) fairy tale. After exploring each locale, the fun continues back on board, where, per the pro, "there is enchantment everywhere — meeting beloved characters, enjoying deck parties with Mickey and Minnie, and indulging in exquisite cuisine."

Royal Caribbean

This mega-ship line truly has it all: Flashy entertainment and onboard activities — which, depending on the ship, can include everything from water slides to zip lines — and plenty of drinking and dining offerings to appease even the pickiest eaters. Guinnup and Kari Dillon, owner of Marvelous Mouse Travels, recommend setting sail aboard Odyssey of the Seas , which offers several Greek itineraries. "On board," says Guinnup, "There's a plethora of activities to enjoy, from bumper cars and roller skating to exquisite dining and a bionic bar — there's something for everyone!"

Itinerary: The seven-night Greek Isles itinerary sails round-trip from Rome with stops in Santorini, Ephesus, Mykonos, and Naples. Keep in mind that because the ship is so large, Santorini and Mykonos are both tender ports. With that in mind, Dillon recommends springing on The Key, an optional add-on that includes priority tender access so that you can spend as much time as possible on land basking in its beauty.

Virgin Voyages

Richard Branson’s adults-only line has taken the industry by storm with its innovative offerings, including 20-plus restaurants instead of buffets, an onboard tattoo parlor, adult-focused entertainment offerings, and a two-story nightclub.

Itinerary: Dillon especially recommends the seven-night Greek Island Aglow itinerary for travelers seeking a high-energy, adults-only option. She continues, telling T+L, “Not only does this sail to the islands of Santorini and Rhodes, but it [also] has an overnight in Mykonos, which is world-famous for its lively party atmosphere.” As a bonus, the cruise also calls on Bodrum in Turkey, which boasts beautiful beaches, flower-filled cafes, and a bustling nightlife scene.

Celestyal Cruises

The Greece-based Celesytal Cruises prides itself on offering an authentic Greek vacation experience. Additionally, Celesytal is unique in that it offers year-round Aegean Sea sailings cruising round-trip from Athens and ranging in length from three to 14 nights. On land, Celeystal guests can choose from a selection of the line’s “Authentic Excursions,” which are specially curated, small-group, expert-led experiences designed to take travelers off the beaten path. Options — including walking food tours and pottery-making demos at a local factory — abound, depending on the particular port of call.

Itinerary: The seven-night Idyllic Aegean voyage visits Thessaloniki (which offers an eclectic combination of history, nightlife, and gastronomy), Kuşadası (a popular Turkish resort town), and Heraklion (the capital of Crete) before heading to iconic isles like Santorini and Mykonos, where the ship will remain overnight. Before returning to Athens for disembarkation, you’ll also stop in magnificent Milos.
