Review on πŸ–±οΈ Belkin Premium Blue Mouse Pad - 7.9'' x 9.9'' by Bill Forbis

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Short lifespan in mouse pads and palm rests

While it appears to be very well made, with no creases, creases or plastic warping, it didn't last long. I bought two. After about 3 weeks of moderate use of the Logitech optical mouse, I noticed that the speed of movement around the screen became erratic. After inspecting the mat, I saw that the sliding area where the mouse made contact with the mat was smooth. Mouse optics don't work well on smooth materials. I rotated the pad 180 degrees and managed to last another week before replacing it with another new one. Same story and now I'm using my old coaster again. Goodbye cloth mouse pad again. If you use an old ball mouse, it will probably last you for years. If you use optics, expect weeks, possibly months of use. If you are an avid gamer, get a better pillow.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Dull packaging
