AmazonBasics Wireless Computer Mouse with Nano Receiver - Red

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.

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.

bought this mouse on 6/29/16 and loved it. then about 2 months later the battery cover wouldnt stay on the mouse. no problem, i used it without the cover fine. now the mouse keeps turning off involuntarily during use ... very annoying. now I have to buy another, non-microsoft product since Im not adept at using the touchpad on my laptop. Update to my initial review: sent defective mouse back to Amazon BUT apparently they are claiming that they did not receive it and I cant prove that I sent it so guess what, they billed me for the replacement. Its only $11.69 BUT its doubly annoying that Ive had to buy a second one. Update 5/22/17: My second replacement mouse just died. Replaced batteries but mouse just keeps turning off. Charged for two of these and none of them lasted a year. Going back to Best Buy and Logitech.

The mouse is too small. Worse yet, after inserting into USB and pulling out, the metal part of the receiver stayed in the laptop. I am disappointed.
