I work from home and use my mouse a good bit daily. I purchased this mouse in May, and now, in October, it’s begun having issues. The scroll wheel jumps so even though I’m scrolling down a page, it’ll rock it back up and down throughout the movement. This hasn’t been fixed with blowing it out or normal cleaning, so I’m assuming there’s something internally that’s worn out.
Either way – I liked this mouse while it worked and it was relatively inexpensive. I’ll likely go with another brand to replace this, however, as such a short lifespan feels wasteful. Hand feel is nice and it’s a good size for fighting fatigue.

I am not a big fan of how they designed the right side of the mouse and would rather have it a rubber grip or make it symmetrical. It is not made for left handed people. Other than that, the mouse is a great buy for using it to do casual task like browsing the internet and maybe casual gaming although I have not test it on gaming. Its as easy as plugging in the dongle and turning the mouse on. And since it is so inexpensive, if you lose or break it then it would be easily replaced.

Worked right out of the box without the need for drivers on Windows 10. The mouse is surprisingly well made for the price and for general use I think most users would be quite happy.
I purchased this to replace a far more expensive Microsoft mouse but despite the different DPI setting available it lacks the accuracy of the Microsoft product when used with Photoshop. A good overall product but users needing fine control might want to look elsewhere.

Por su precio funciona bien, recomendable comprar baterías recargables, usa solo una AA y su duración depende del uso.

This product stopped working this morning. This was the second time that this had happened.Checking it, I was going to put in a new battery. I replaced the battery with a new one and when my husband looked at it, he checked to see if the old battery was dead. He found that in the short time I had had it but also that the battery terminals had corroded. With the new battery, it still cut out and it seems that the on/off switch is equally causing problems as it is still erratic in it’s. I will return it to your offices for a refund and order something rather more robust. Marjorie Shaw

Really impressed with the value for money, wireless mouse works perfectly, just plugged in the slim USB receiver and it worked straight away. Adjustable DPI is a welcome bonus for changing mouse sensitivity on the go, something usually found higher-end mice.
Only complaint would be that there’s a sharp edge on the right hand side which can cause a little bit of discomfort depending on how you hold your mouse. Also had a small problem with the USB receiver getting stuck inside the mouses’ internal compartment, ended up pinging across the room when I finally got it unstuck! However at this price-point I wouldn’t consider these major issues.

I bought this mouse for work. I wanted something cheap and portable as I work from a laptop and am always on the go. This little black piece of magic fits the bill. It is an outstanding on the go device and the price is just right.

I’ve never had to pair a wireless mouse before. This has a bright red pairing light underneath that triggered a migraine, so be careful if you are sensitive to that.

The mouse works pretty well right out of the box, no issues with connecting to the dongle. I really liked that the mouse came with a battery. I’m not sure why that’s such a big deal to me, but I love when things that need batteries have batteries included, even if the batteries are sucky, you can at least use the device even if you later realize that you didn’t have any batteries at home.
The only thing that I don’t particularly like is that the DPI button is on the outside of the mouse where someone can come and press it even after I’ve set it to the setting that I want. I have 2 kids that come into my office often and push buttons on everything, so I see frequent re-setting of the DPI in my future. I wish that it was inside the body of the mouse, maybe where the connect button was. But it was a $10 mouse, can’t expect everything to be absolutely perfect.

Mouse wheel broke after only 3 days, paint started to bubble and come off after a week of use. not very happy i must say.. If i am honest i should have spent the extra few quid and gotten a logitech i had one before and they last years even with lots of abuse from being dropped and kicked…But this thing, sorry i cant recommend this thing.

Devo dire che non credevo possibile trovare un mouse del genere tra gli Amazon Basics. Scelto di colore viola, arriva in una essenziale ma pratica confezione in cartone. Il mouse è perfettamente imballato, e all’interno troviamo anche una batteria AA ovviamente Amazon. Il libretto di istruzioni multi lingue si legge rapidamente ed è intuitivo. Quindi via, si inserisce il ricevitore in una presa USB, si accende il mouse tramite il piccolo interruttore e il gioco è fatto. Ergonomico allo stato puro, per lo meno per la mia mano XL. Praticissimo in ogni movimento e funzionalità, ed ottimamente rifinito. Non sono riuscito ancora a trovargli difetti, quindi a questo prezzo di vendita dò cinque stelle ed eventualmente aggiornerò la valutazione in caso di decadimento delle prestazioni nel tempo. Se le mie informazioni vi sono state utili, cliccate!
