Mouse DPI Analyzer

DPI, which stands for Dots Per Inch, is the measure of a mouse's sensitivity, determining how far the cursor moves on the screen for each inch the mouse moves physically. A higher DPI means the cursor moves farther with less physical movement, and a lower DPI translates to slower cursor movement for the same physical motion.

There is no universal "best" DPI setting; it all depends on your intended use. If you're a gamer, try different DPI levels to find what suits your playing style. For creative work, a higher DPI might offer better precision. Remember, there's no one-size-fits-all solution, so choose what works best for you.

Most modern mice either have their DPI listed on the packaging or come with software that allows you to check and adjust their DPI settings. If you're unsure about your mouse's DPI, you can use this website to find it out or confirm if the DPI mentioned on the packaging or software is accurate.

Generally, Mouse DPI is a multiple of 50 e.g. 800, 950, 1000 etc, so measure your DPI 3-4 times and round the average value.
