The product is completely satisfied, performs its functions.

"Mouse regular, 1 pc. " Its pros: High-quality assembly and ease of installation and configuration. Comfortable symmetrical design for small hands. Has some cons: Frankly inconspicuous. The paws could have been bigger. More expensive than analogues from Logitech and other manufacturers.

The right product for me, there were no problems.

Simple and high quality mouse. Great for work, the buttons are pressed softly and smoothly, the mouse itself is made with high quality, there are no backlashes and squeaks. I've been using it for over 2 years with no complaints.

I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

Model version v2.0. For the office - a solid mouse. According to reviews - it serves for several years without breakdowns. But the quality of the production of models can change over time. For comparison - office Genius Traveler 100 (~ the same $15). It has better plastic and a more comfortable design. 1200 dpi. Only the wheel is made worse. Worked for more than 10 years without serious problems, daily, used a lot for games and fell off the table more than once.

Pros
  • - The size is not reduced. More than 11 cm in length. - Not heavy. Without wire - ~55 g. - It glides well. "Paws" of the normal size. - Not bad, - not noisy and rubberized scroll. - Classic design, the lack of illumination that must be turned off (if possible), there are no extra buttons that can be touched during use. - There are no rubber pads that are wiped. - The wheel without the support of side clicks - these are more convenient. - The LED does not shine through the sides and cracks when viewed from the side. There are no scratching edges or burrs, no creaking when compressed, no bending of the plastic on the sides. - USB->PS / 2 adapter in the OEM version. Filter on USB cable.
Cons
  • - Tough buttons. I compare with some "office" mice close at the price. Significantly where they are often pressed as in games. - Narrow buttons. The mouse is not wide (~ 55 mm), and even on the sides there are glossy pads 3-4 mm wide. More significant where both buttons are frequently used. - Unlike the previous version of the model, the current 2.0 has glossy side overlays, and they are wider than on some other mice. On the right side, a hand sticks to it - the mouse does not slide well over the palm when the cursor moves vertically. There is no such effect on matte surfaces and with ordinary non-shiny plastic. - Top plastic is soft and thin, cheap. In normal use, it is unlikely to be noticeable. When pressed hard on the button, it bends. - On a completely black model, the wheel is white. - 800 dpi (some sites indicate 1000 dpi) - not enough for FullHD and higher resolutions, which may require programmatically increase the cursor speed. Their "Comfort" model has 1000 dpi and is the most common resolution in today's mice.

Better than Logitech B100 but clicks are too loud

Would have been 5 stars if it wasn't for the loud clicks. Slightly more comfortable and better made (thicker cable, smoother and stronger mouse wheel) than the Logitech B100, which I also bought. In the end I chose the B100 because it clicks too loud. The clicks of the B100 are also a bit louder, but much quieter than with this mouse. This mouse has a handy bar to rest your finger on to avoid accidental clicking. The Logitech B100 doesn't have a protrusion, so it's more likely to be…

Pros
  • Test year
Cons
  • Can't remember

It's simple and pretty simple

This simple Microsoft optical mouse works perfectly (although sometimes my double-click doesn't register and has to be repeated). However, it was too bright for my liking. I guess I prefer a mouse with a little heavier weight because it seems too prone to "gliding" across my desktop (yes, I've adjusted the sensitivity - mine not me here). Some people may prefer a lighter, more agile mouse. But if you're like me and prefer a bit of weight for lighter hand control, ie with a bit more resistance…

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Things to know

Good replacement for me MS Wheel Mouse Optical

Like many others I was married to an old MS Wheel Mouse Optical. We got divorced when MS stopped production and sold out. I've used a basic Logitch mouse for a long time, but it didn't suit my height or weight. I have neuromuscular disease and tremors in my hands and forearms. The size and weight of this mouse is just right for me so I don't have to do much "work" when using it and it doesn't activate my muscle tremors. I even recently ordered a second one that's still in the box, waiting to be

  • Finally bought

Died in five weeks

I liked this Microsoft mouse because of the size/comfort in hand, no redundant buttons to be disabled by additional software (software) and no additional drivers to install manually when used with Windows. Now this mouse likes the drive because it has stopped working (the red light is still on but not responding). Just in case it might be a software conflict (I disabled updates anyway), I tried it on another computer: it doesn't work there either. (Now when I connect a mouse, I get the message…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Almost everything there

Very good value mouse with some drawbacks (number of clicks discussed in this review)

I upgraded to this mouse from a standard Dell mouse. I use Logitech at work. I almost forgot how much I loved the simple two-button scroll wheel mouse from Microsoft.PROs: comfortable to hold, reliable drivers (easily recognized by Windows and no reboot required), no batteries to swap out, like cordless, comfortable grip and well-detailed controls for business, personal, and light gaming. Simple, direct and reliable at a good price. I don't like the side and extra buttons on other models that I

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other models

Clicks that break the sound barrier

I used to have a cheap MS mouse but it didn't look like this one. I was very happy with it until it failed, so I decided to try MS again. So far I'm not that excited. Pros: - It runs well on screen. I use it on different surfaces and it's pretty accurate. - The mouse wheel feels nice and is definitely a slight improvement over my previous MS mouse. - The size of the mouse is perfect for my hand. It's no frills and it's what I prefer. Cons: Right and left buttons are LOUD. I came across some…
