Value, Durable, Bluetrack. Worth It.

 

This one I have is years old, just bought another because I love this mouse and want it for the new PC I bought here on NewEgg too. I have gamed on it for hours and hours and hours so if you're not gaming this mouse will last you a LONG time. I've had...

Cheap ; Big mouse for bigger hands. I bought the 4,000 and pfft thing's so small I can barely tell it's there. This mouse has some meat on it. ;) ; BlueTrack is freakin sweet, tracks nearly everything in my house. My forehead, my granite counter top...

The soft padding stuff on the scroll wheel and the sides will start to flake off and fall apart with excessive use. I just completely took it off

Good Mouse, Bad Windows 8 Performance

 

Great ergonomics, very smooth (at times, see below), easy to configure, feels solid, good battery life

The only complaint I have is a major one, and the reason I'm replacing it. At times, the mouse lag is so bad it's almost unusable. In games, it is unusable. I've researched why it does this and have found others with the same problem, but so far no...

great tracking

 

I've used a number of other wireless mice, but this one tracks better than the rest. The movements are more smooth and precise than the equivalent Logitech mice. It also has a soft rubber feel to it

If the 2.4 GHz transmitter fails, then there is no replacement from Microsoft. I had one fail after getting a fair amount of pressure applied to it while inserted in the USB slot. The USB connector begins to wiggle and separate from the tiny plastic...

Microsoft 69R-00025

 

I love this mouse. I've had this mouse for over a year now and my only complaint is that it runs out of battery every 3 or so months. WORKS WITH WINDOWS 8 (I have it installed in my laptop. Dell V131) 4-Stars because of battery life.

Bluetooth Connection (Free up USB Ports for Dell 14z) ; Smooth ; Back Button

Somewhat short battery life (3 months)

Great mouse with outstanding compatability

 

Great little mouse that worked throughout 4 years of school. It was a beater that worked when I had my laptop, then a second one that I had for my desktop. I loved that I no longer had a RF adapter to use a laptop travel mouse and the ability to have a...

Bluetooth, forward|reverse button, laser, travel-sized and no RF adapter necessary, battery life

Good for Larger Hands

 

Researching mice size was close to impossible because some manufacturers don't publish their dimensions and local stores don't carry all of the brands. I wouldn't say I have giant hands, but using a mouse that is too small or slender is difficult for...

Full-sized mouse for my large hands ; Good tracking ; Back and forward buttons ; Decent battery life in office environment (3-4 months)

Smooth scroll wheel: This bothers me the most. Not only do I miss the click feeling, I often accidentally scroll because there is nothing to stop it ; Off switch is triggered by holstering the receiver dongle, which takes extra effort if you are using...

Great little mouse!

 

I bought this for my small Samsung laptop. The size fits the bill exactly. Installed the battery, turned on the laptop and then the mouse and it installed flawlessly (less than one minute). MS makes good stuff and this is no exception. I have smaller...
