Compare Logitech Wireless Mouse M171 and M185
Mice Logitech M171 and M185 have similar characteristics, such as an optical sensor with a resolution of 1000 DPI and a range of 10 m. Both devices connect via radio and operate on a single AA battery with up to 12 months of battery life. However, the M171 is slightly lighter (71 g compared to 75 g for the M185) and measures 98x62x35 mm, while the M185 is slightly larger at 99x60x39 mm. Choosing between them may depend on design and weight preferences, as both mice are suitable for left-handed users and have the same number of buttons and a scroll wheel.

Glossary
Weight
The total weight of the mouse. For models with a wired connection, usually, it is indicated without cable, and for devices with weight adjustment (see above) — without weights.
This parameter is important primarily for professional gaming applications, although it is often relevant for ordinary users. Theoretically, less weight promotes speed and reduces fatigue. At the same time, in fact, much depends on the personal habits and preferences of the user: a mouse that is too light may “not be felt in the hands” and not give familiar feedback. Therefore, although most mice have a lower weight limit of 60 – 80 g, however, even among professional gaming models there are much more massive devices — 120 – 140 g or more. The lightest variety of "rodents" is laptop (see "In the direction"), among them devices come across and less than 60 g.
Also note that the weight to some extent depends on the size and “tricked out” of the device, but there is no unambiguous dependence here: models similar in size and functionality can differ markedly in weight.
