Pro: This is a good wireless mouse. The USB receiver is small and fits inside the mouse when not in use. It takes 2 AAA batteries that angle in when installing (took me a sec to figure that out). My Dell laptop recognized it immediately and works identically to a wired mouse in every other way. Con: It is shorter than a normal mouse, which is going to take some getting used to. I wish it were the same size as a normal mouse, but this seems to be a trend with this wireless ones. Ive attached a pic.

Bought 2 - both stopped working. I do not recommend this mouse. I bought one and one month later it stopped working. For the price, it wasnt worth returning so I just bought another one thinking I got a fluke bad one because I do like the light weight and feel. But the second one stopped working after a few months. I tried changing the battery (with 3 dif sets of batteries in case my batteries were bad). I tried it on my desktop and my laptop. It just stopped working.

I have been using Microsofts basic optical USB wired mouse for years. Everytime I try something different I end up going back to MS mouse. The thumbwheel usually goes first in my experience. I have had this mouse for a month now. This mouse feels and performs exactly the same as the MS basic optical mouse. Pointer movement is accurate and scroll wheel feel/operation is very good. Button clicks are good. Not too hard or too soft. I have med-lg hands and never had a problem with this size mouse. Installation was plug and play with Windows 7. No drivers to install. Wireless operation has been flawless. The top of the mouse is rubberized synthetic that does absorb oil from your hand and fingers.. Easy to clean with windex though. I got the mouse on sale. I really like it. I will keep using it until stops working.. Oh. almost forgot it tracks well on my sofa as well. Considering sale price -$15 and smooth operation. 5 stars Batteries are easy to install. The +/- terminals are molded into body. Dont understand the complaints about difficult installation. Update 7/5/12 5th month: Still working perfectly. Batteries last one month if you dont turn it off. Update 1/25/2013 1 year still working fine Update 8/8/14 2.5 years and still working. I use it everyday.

I bought this mouse in October and, for a little while, it worked quite well. In the last week or so, though, it seems to cut out. I thought that maybe it was just a connection issue, so I changed the USB ports. That didnt fix the problem, so I thought maybe it was just because of the software (maybe an update, or something) on my work computer, so I tried it on my personal computer and experienced the same issue. I decided that surely, the batteries I had recently put into the mouse were on the verge of death - maybe they were defective or something, and so I changed the batteries. Again, there was no improvement in the connectivity issue. I also tried the "connect" button on the mouse and attempted turning it off and back on, restarting the computer, and telling my computer to "forget" the mouse so that it could reinstall the driver... none of which have resolved the issue. When it works, it works well. Unfortunately, though, the one I received does not seem to be sturdy or reliable. From the other reviews, it seems that the mouse is pretty reliable and works well... so I am assuming that I just received one with some sort of manufacturing defect. Still, given the amount of work I do on the computer, I think I would probably be better off with a Logitech or some other more recognized product.

My job is in IT and I work with several PCs nearly every day. This mouse has never had a driver-related issue with any of them, and the optical reader hasnt had a problem on any reasonable surface I have used it on. It is also heavy enough to be comfortable for long-term use, but small enough to carry easily in your kit. The usb-receiver tucks away within the battery compartment as well, so you do not lose it. Here are my 2 negatives: 1. If you drop the mouse on a surface such as concrete or asphault, the rubberized exterior is easily damaged. 2. The USB-receivers range is short and needs to be relatively unobstructed. It can work through a desk if the PC is under the desk, but that is about it. You could get a USB M to F extension to fix this. Would I recommend this as a daily-use mouse at a desk: No As a portable mouse for a laptop: Yes!

The Amazon Basics cordless "mini" mouse is one of those "wireless mouse plus little USB receiver" devices. It seem sto be positioned to compete with the Logitech m325 model. The USB receiver is hiding in the battery compartment, which is accessed by removing a door in the underside. This must be plugged into an available USB port for the mouse to function. The mouse must also be switched on using a tiny switch in its underside. The mouse takes two AAA batteries. There is a sort of plastic ribbon thing that is used to help pull the batteries out when they need replacing. The mouse is fitted with the usual two buttons and a wheel. The wheel is the sort that softly clicks as one turns it. the wheel has a vertical click movement too. On connecting the receiver to a windows machine the drivers will start to download. I have no idea what you do with linux or Apple machines, but I expect the process is similar. If the mouse does not connect properly after the drivers finish downloading, there is a button in the underside of the mouse to signal the receiver to try again. Upsides: Inexpensive at around $18. Good size for the hand. Once installed works well on desk-type surfaces or on fabric upholstery from my tests. Downsides: As expensive as the better (in my opinion) Logitech m325. Two AAAs less convenient in my household than Logitechs single AA. Contour less comfortable in my hand than Logitech m325. Mouse wheel lacks the "side click" capability of Logitech m325. Plastic battery removal ribbon gets in the way when trying to refit battery door. Annoyances: Switch very small and fiddly. Battery door pops off when mouse dropped. Good luck finding it under the furniture. The design is an "unlatch, swing out and remove" one, with the door itself being small enough youll want to take care to put somewhere it cant walk away from while you install the batteries. The drivers seemed to take forever to install from Windows Update, far longer than the Logitech m325. The whole seems to be an older design than the equivalent Logitech m325. If you have the choice Id say go for the Logitech m325, which costs about the same on Amazon right now. It just seems to be better thought-out.

Ive had some bad luck with off brand mice (Anker, etc...). Thus far I have been presently surprised with this one. Good size / feel. It is small than a typical corded mouse but frankly Ive never liked dragging those monsters across the table. My hands are above average size and this mouse is still fine to use. It has an accessible ON/OFF button. I have some with out and some where you had to access the switch inside the battery cover (pretty dumb, no?). Anyway this is right on the bottom and makes it easy to click it off when dropping it into your computer bag. If you want to store the dongle you have to open the battery cover but for me this is no big deal as I do not do it often. The only strange thing about the mouse is that the batteries angle into the unit and there are no clear +/- markings. You can figure out which way the batteries go in by looking at the shape of the terminals but it isnt instantly clear when you first look at it. Connect instantly on my HP laptop. **Edit - The AmazonBasics batteries that come with the mouse are flaming turds. **Edit #2 - Right click button no longer functioning after a few weeks worth of use. Tried on multiple computers.

I really have nothing against a basic utility mouse. The problem is that I bought 2 of these and both of them have the same problem, about a 2 week battery life. If you turn it off when youre not using it, itll last much longer, but who does that? Ive tried, but its tough to remember every time... and nearly impossible when there are others in the house using one of these. While this may seem cheap, its not if youre replacing the batteries at least once a month, for a computer used a couple times a week.

This mouse eats batteries like crazy. Im lucky to get 2 weeks out of them and I turn it off whenever Im away from the computer. I expected a whole lot better and am very disappointed. Next time Ill spend a little more and get a decent mouse. The ones I use on my other 2 computers combined have used less batteries in a year than this one has in 3 mos or so.

I regret buying this product. Normally Amazon basics are well constructed, sadly this mouse is not !. Many previous reviews have noted the failures of this mouse, I stupidly thought "how could Amazon get it wrong with such a simple item", and thus ignored the bad reviews. As the reviews have noted the battery door pops off continuously. This is simply poor design, the battery door is super thin plastic and the tongue of the latch is about 1mm wide giving it little chance of staying closed under any normal use. The battery location is also poorly designed causing the batteries to pop put if you simply pick up the mouse and place it down. It could be the batteries banging on the battery door that cause the door to pop out, I have used this 3 times ( and had the door come off and batteries dislodge twice already). The upside ( and thus its a 2 star ) is the rest of the mouse is fine, it feels good in the hand, the electronics works well, resolution is superb, it doesnt lose bluetooth connectivity with my macbook pro ( unlike Apples magic mouse ). In all it feels great, looks good, it just needs a working battery door, and a change to the battery holder, then it would be a 5 star product. Do not buy this product. And dear Amazon, I am happy to discuss this with product control, mouse serial number is 6F18605082B, you know how to contact me.
