Okay, it's just a cheap mouse. But I needed a mouse, after being out of the mouse purchase game for a few years. These things have… evolved. Slightly.

I avoided Bluetooth on mice in the past; power hungry, a pain to set up. USB 2.0 wireless dongle receivers were simpler and easier, as long as you didn't think about the added radio noise generated. But these days, you can have both in a low-power chipset. If you don't need the dongle, it just stays in the case next to the AA battery compartment, or gets thrown away for storage space - the compartment takes a single AA, Amazon description is wrong.

This mouse has the features I look for: scroll wheel! which clicks as a middle button! simple vestigial third button behind the scrollwheel, which might also be a programmable button (not sure, and the leaflet is no help, though it talks of setting up for iPad - EDIT it's for CPI count per inch tracking granularity, according to the labelled photo below the image of Anne Hathaway, the actress. Scroll down.)! And a button underneath to select between bluetooth and wireless USB, where the tiniest of tiny LEDs - one red, one blue - light up just to confirm which is operational. After years of having to use huge wireless dongles which weren't bluetooth, but had glaring blue LEDs to hint at it and look cool (hey, HP? you're not cool), I appreciate the design and the restraint. And there's a power on/off toggle, which much more expensive mice lack.

No sign of a USB-C dongle, but anything with USB-C is likely to have bluetooth, right? right? And the ergonomics are par for the course: better than the iMac puck mouse, worse than the expensive ergonomics category.

As there's no wired tail, is "mouse" still what we should be calling these things?

Never mind. it's just a cheap mouse.

    Upvoting just for your effort in trying so hard to sell this ordinary mouse… There are so many options available in this price range.

    • Larsson on 05/01/2025 - 01:27

      This must be someone studying marketing and testing things out here just for the lulz

    Logitech M171 $14 is a much better option if Bluetooth is not needed

    It's the most interacted part of your computer. It pays to up that budget and get something with better reputation.

    • Nukkels on 05/01/2025 - 06:20

      The chair is the most used. The screen is next. Keyboard/mouse probably comes in 3rd.

        Not if you have a standing desk.

      • hippo2s on 05/01/2025 - 13:27

        Chair is furniture.

        Most people can't use their computer without a mouse. Fair enough on par with keyboard. My point stands.

        • Nukkels on 05/01/2025 - 17:32

          I often use my computer without touching the mouse. To play music or watch a video, sometimes just to reference an image.

          A chair is furniture, but it's also part of my computer setup, that I use 100% of the time I'm at my computer, even if the screen is off. I definitely agree not to skimp on anything ergonomic though, including the mouse.

    don't buy a noname mouse man. money wasted

    get a proper mouse Logitech's are just a buck or two more

    • puffinfresh on 05/01/2025 - 00:42

      Or $2.99 less

      Edit, a comment above beat me to it. Same price at Big W and The Good Guys. Currently more at Officeworks, so you could even get them to price beat it to $9.50.

        I bought one of these a while back and for the price it's great. At double the price it'd still be a solid purchase if you needed a basic mouse

    There are a few cheap Logitech wireless mice at similar price.. why on earth would you get this..

    $5 on Aliexpress. But damn the expense, I'll pay $10 for a Logitech.

    I might wait for the USB 3.0 version.

    • HolyCr4p on 05/01/2025 - 07:30

      I will wait for usb 1.0

      That's a still from The Intern, a movie starring Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro.

      I had ignored it on the Amazon page because it looked like the start of irrelevant adverts, but there's a breakdown of the mouse below it.

    Listing contains mistakes/misinformation.
    Item looks dated and low quality.
    Cheaper items available on Amazon with integrated battery and USB charging.

    One of the worst (addled) rants I've ever read on OzB. The product also sounds bad.

    That's a still from a film Anne Hathaway did with Robert de Niro: The Intern

    It's about an old guy trying to get to grips with modern technology.

    Sorry Op but will have to neg as well because comments above have shown this isn't a bargain with links to similar for less, including Logitech.

    Landfill….are you sure your not associated OP

    • mantichoral on 05/01/2025 - 09:27

      I am not associated with the maker.

      I'm not associated with the seller, either.

      Although I do now seem to be subscribed to Amazon Prime. I'm not sure how.

      Is that an association?

      • AlexF on 05/01/2025 - 10:11

        I think he meant in landfill business

    $13 for a generic no name wireless mouse might have been a bargain… 20 years ago?
