Cheap material

I ordered two of these, with the intention of having one spare in case I misplaced the first ; Mouse #1 works fine

Mouse #2 has a very sluggish left button (one has to push it hard to be sure the click is received). There goes my spare

Best portable mouse I've owned!

This has traveled quite a bit with me for over 9 months and it is still working as if it were new. The little pads on the bottom have now all officially turned up missing, but doesn't seem to effect it. By now most retractable corded portable mice...

Holds up wonderfully ; Easy and solid retraction mechanism, or whatever you call it ; Solid wiring, especially where the wire meets the mouse ; Great sensitivity for casual use, and effective tool for most games

Tiny yet efficient

I read the product specs and knew that the size would be tiny - about 3 inches. So do not expect to rest your palm on it like other mice. I have small hands so moving the mini mouse with my fingers is fine for me. As noted by the other reviewers,...

Good mouse, but short life-span

Very comfortable and very compact. Easy to use, accurate and reliable through daily use (including travel) for about 7 months. Started to falter then, which I addressed by tapping the mouse on my desk before using it. This worked for a while, but...

Consumer review by: ttt (amazon.com)

small, simple, easy to use

This mini mouse is ideal for laptops/notebooks, as it has a retractable cord that is shorter & skinnier than one a regular mouse would have. I am using it on my desktop, but have to have a USB extension cable since the cord on it is too short to reach...

Good quality travel mouse

Very happy with this travel mouse. The size is just right for me, allowing me to use it on the surface of my Macbook Pro when need be. It tracks nicely, and also has been very durable while retracting the cord, so far (that had been my problem with...
