Consumer review (newegg.com)

Just what I wanted

I use different colored mice for different computers on a work bench so that I can easily see which mouse goes to which computer (several computers side by side). I like the white and I may choose to buy white more often. [Update March 30, 2016: After...

Inexpensive, decent feel in the hand, does the intended job just fine.

On my primary computers I prefer larger mice that enable better control for graphics work, but for basic OS and Office work this one does the job very well and I knew what the size was before I ordered. No cons.

-It's white, which is cool, but dirt shows more. I should have thought of that when i decided to save a couple bucks by getting the white one.

+was less than 10 bucks +comfortable feel and form. +does the job

Good basic mouse

This mouse was purchased to replace another wireless mouse that failed. It is a good basic mouse; not much else to say. A good feature is the on-off switch which prolongs battery life, if used.

Decent, basic mouse

Other than the one w/ the sticky wheel, the product was exactly what I was looking for.

As with most of the Microsoft mice & keyboards I've used, this mouse is pretty good quality. Basic features: 3 buttons w/ wheel & optical. well built; doesn't feel cheap like the others I tried before

I purchased 2 mice, and the wheel is sticky on one of them. It feels like when a mouse wheel gets really dirty. It has gotten better with time though. This is the only reason I gave it 3 stars instead of 4 stars

Generic mouse (Microsoft knockoff?)

Decent but overpriced generic mouse

This mouse has the Microsoft logo on it but is not recognized as a Microsoft mouse by Microsoft's hardware drivers. It is recognized as a generic mouse only. It appears to be a Chinese knockoff and not a very good one, because it doesn't look like...

Quality mouse

Properly built, works good. For me, I usually buy cheaper stuff, but when I give one as a gift, I want to be sure it will work well and be durable.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Gets job done. Still a little small for my baby hands though.

The optics hardware is high quality and the matte black looks great. The matte black will prevent a gross looking mouse after grease buildup from a couple years of use. If you like to use hardware until it starts falling apart, choose black - not white...

The mouse is a little smaller than my previous Microsoft mouse. This is saying something considering I already have really small baby hands. This is where Microsoft looses one star. I am sure I will get used to the smaller size - but the mouse is not...
