AmazonBasics Ergonomic Wireless PC Mouse - DPI adjustable - Black

Comment

Mouse tracks very well and is comfortable in my hand, No lag after sitting for a minute or two when using your keyboard which makes it very nice while plating a game. Very solid clicks and it scrolls very well, and the back and forward buttons work well but at least for me they are a bit hard to find as compared to other mice I have had. They need to be protruding just a bit more so you can find them easier without really thinking about it although I suppose I will get used to it in time. They to are very solid when pressed. Now the one thing that drives me crazy about this mouse is the dpi button. It needs to be more responsive when pressed, Instead of being able to have to bring my finger back and just hit the button, Ive got to be sure I bring my finger back towards the very back of the button and be sure to press it with the tip of my finger nail to make sure it activates. And even then its not guaranteed to switch the dpi correctly, often times it may flash the correct number of times but may not change at all, Or the button will stick making me have to fiddle with it to get 1t to release so I can change it properly. For $9 It is a good solid mouse and well worth it and will be decent for general desktop use, And will be fine for everyday use, But for heavy use like even basic gaming the switching of the dpi will drive you nuts and be a real deal killer. Overall its decent it just isnt what it could be...

I purchased three of these for three laptop workstations. Each time the laptops are powered on next to one another, with the USB receiver plugged in, I have to swap the mice around with the various users. This is because, for whatever reason, the receivers are not bound to the mouse they came with, but instead they connect to whatever receiver is within range and available when powered on. This means if Person A has Mouse A, and Person B has Mouse B, and Person A powers on their laptop, and Person B powers on their mouse, Person A has to give Mouse A to Person B, because of Mouse A binding to Person Bs USB receiver. If youre solo, youre likely not to have an issue. If youre trying to buy wireless mice for a group of folks working in the same area, avoid this product.

Installation was easy as always, just plug in the dongle and away you go. Size is a bit small, but I knew that going into it. It worked great for the first 5-10 minutes and then all of a sudden it started to lag, stutter, skip, whatever terminology you want to use. Its barely usable now, as I can barely get it to move for fine/precise movements (clicking on buttons, Excel cells, links, etc.). I bought this mouse for work because I wanted a cheap wireless mouse that had the forward/back buttons, but this will be returned.

It stops working every so often. Have to re-boot the processor and/or unplug the usb receiver and plug it back in. Some times I have to do this 2 or 3 times to get it to start working again. Works for a few days and then stops again. Amazon should allow a free replacement since it bares their name. Usually if it carries their name its a pretty good product. I dont recommend this product.........

This mouse did OK for the first few weeks, then it started eating batteries. A battery a week to keep it working!!

This mouse was fine for the first 2 months. Its comfortable on the hand, has enough buttons, and adjustable DPI. Unfortunately after 2 months the scroll wheel started to have intermittent problems, then the click started having delays. After about 6 months, it just suddenly and completely died. Tried new batteries, the red light flickers for a few seconds, then its dead again. Amazon: if you are going to put your brand on items, how about making sure the quality is up to standards?

This wireless mouse was a gift for my mom to use with her new laptop. It was pretty easy for her to plug-and-play once she received the device. It has all the basic features along with a scroll wheel which is pretty standard for most mouse devices made these days. She finds it comfortable and easy to use for one thats still getting used to more technical devices as she learns to better use her laptop. It alleviates the tangling of cords and allows her the freedom to use something shes been used to when using a computer in the past without resorting to the laptop touch pad. The price is fair for what you get at a basic mouse that functions well and appears pretty well made and durable for casual use.

The build quality of the mouse is very good. I have found it is very comfortable to use, especially if it is being used for over an hour in one sitting. This is due to the implantation of groves on the right side of the mouse. These groves give your right ring finger and pinky finger a place to sit on the mouse. I have also found it quite durable as the mouse has been knocked off my desk a few times and shown almost no sign of damage, except for a small scuff on the lower right side.

As much as I like technology, I also try to avoid setting up things so I can benefit from technology. It took me a LONG while to finally break down and get a mouse for my Mac Book Pro. I have been using the laptop for over 10 years and honestly, I dont mind using the touch-pad and went without a mouse for over 10 years. However, one day, I was curious. And decided to get this mouse since it was at a good price point, and sometimes my husband uses my laptop and complains about using the touch pad. The set-up to this mouse is painless (I loath setting things up) and done quickly (as long as you have the battery available). I have used this mouse for a while now, and it is holding up. It seems precise for the work I do (spreadsheets, making powerpoint presentations etc). My hand feels good on the mouse. The ergonomics is sufficient to provide ease and comfort. These days, if I moved my laptop to a different part of the house and forgot to grab the mouse, I will actually get up and go grab the mouse because I like it that much that I would rather walk and get it than to do without it. That itself is a testament to how much I like this mouse.

Okay, I have to admit that when I first popped open the mouses packaging I was confused. Where was the small USB that needed to connect to my laptop? I searched high and low, even checking the floor thinking that I may have dropped it! Low and behold, being the man that I am decided to read the directions! There I found it! Hidden discreetly inside the battery compartment! This mouse is literally dead silent. I have decent hearing and when using this mouse I can barely hear it make a noise! I love how I can toggle the cursor speed quickly and easily if I need it faster or slower for whatever I am doing! Overall this purchase is one of my favorites!
