Awesome little mouse. Have one and am using it right now.
It has 5 buttons (scroll wheel is middle + 2 near the thumb, made for righties). Scroll wheel does up/down, left/right.
It takes 2xAAs (works with my Eneloops, this may or may not be due to the glitter ;).
$25 delivered, normally $40.
It's better than my craptastic one. I now own a few of the Dell ones… now. :)
I have one of these and it's great. Well it was until I got a Toshiba ultrabook and the bluetooth won't recognise the Dell mouse. Seemingly a common issue with the Toshi.
How many DPI is the sensor.
No idea tbh. I have no issues with accuracy and I play Diablo 3 with mine. I don't think it's designed as a gaming mouse and I don't play FPS's.
If you've got a laptop, though, it's nice not to sacrifice a USB port to the nipple god.
Well its a pretty old mouse, so don't expect too much, had it since I bought my dell laptop back in 2008.
Great find :). I've been looking for a mouse exactly like this since becoming so accustom to the back and forward buttons on my wired desktop mouse. Anyone know if this uses a blue laser?
checks his mouse's arse Visible red laser. :)
Thanks.
How much battery life do you get?
Do you know if it will accept Eneloops and still give good life? (not all mice will, due to the lower voltage).
Very tempted to purchase.
Confirmed working with eneloops (don't know if the glitter helped ;)
Hard to say wrt battery life. I've not been using them daily. I bought the first one in May and still going on original duracells.
Thanks, that news is good enough for me. Bought!
You have to love a Bluetooth Mouse.
but not the crappy not quite Bluetooth cordless mice you mostly see :(
C'mon guys, it's all touchscreens now! What, no Windows Ate? :)
Does it come with the bluetooth dongle? Or does your pc/laptop have to have it integrated?
No dongle. You gotta already have bt. That said, you can get them easily enough for a penny or two.
2 AA's…gotta be heavy for continuous use
I've been fine using it to play diablo 3 for a few hours.
Why are these better than the logitech wireless mouses that often go for $15 - $20? or mouses such as the Logitech G400 that go for $24 on special.
I've not tried them so I cannot say. I'm mainly going off my experience with cheap bt mice and other ppls experiences with other brands. I don't get any of the issues I've either experienced or read about with this one.
My cheap mouse, for example, /lags/. :/ It's like trying to mouse underwater.
I can tell you something, you will hate it if you have big hands, the mouse is really small(well its supposedly a travel mouse). But I do like the buttons on the sides.
I've no issues with it and my hands aren't exactly midget. It doesn't fill the hand fully and, being a travel mouse, it is on the small side but hate is a strong word.
Well, you can always learn to love it…
Cheap price for a (hopefully) reputable and reliable BT mouse… always wanted to try one with my laptop to free up a USB slot. Normally I use a lower model logitech mouse (got a few after that logitech five item freebie give away a while back) and they work great but if this thing is just as good, then freeing up a USB slot would be even better. Hopefully the battery life is around 1yr of normal use like the logitech.
Ordered one - here is hopping is is better than the two (crap) generic ones I've purchased before!
