[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros Affordability. The price point is fantastic. It’s a budget-friendly option that does not skimp on quality. Comfort. The mouse fits comfortably in my hand and I can use it for extended periods without any discomfort. The design is simple yet ergonomic. My 7 year old also uses it frequently for gaming and likes it fits well for him. Precision. The optical sensor is quite accurate. It tracks smoothly on various surfaces which is great for both work and casual browsing. Plug and Play. Setup was a breeze. I just plugged it into my USB port and it was ready to go. No need for additional drivers or software. Cons. Scrolling wheel. the initial set up has the wheel scroll set very slow. This was a little tricky to change. Need a mouse pad. We had to purchase a mouse pad for my son who didn't previously have a mouse but the mouse won't work on certain surfaces. Overall it's a great mouse for the price and I'd recommend it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Throughout my career working from home I have spent many many hours at the computer. I generally use a wireless mouse but was happy to have the opportunity to try this wired mouse. The mouse has a 6 foot long wire that connects to your computer via a USB. As a lefty this is important; the long cord allows for ambidextrous use. I am able to plug the mouse in to the USB ports on the right side of my computer and stretch the cord around to my left hand with no problem and plenty of room to spare. The mouse has a curved design on both sides which allows it to retain its ergonomic design whether you use it with your right or your left hand. It was comfortable enough for use during long days at the computer. The mouse is perfectly functional but it is a bit bulky for my (perhaps weirdly small) hands. It gets the job done with no additional frills or extra perks. My biggest complaint is that the mouse is indeed wired...which is exactly as described. My personal preference is a wireless mouse because cords do tend to get cluttered at a WFH desktop station. Regardless of my subjective preferences the mouse does what it is asked with no qualms.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This performed exactly how I would expect an optical mouse to perform. I found it to be smoother than other mice that I have used before and the wheel has a really nice grip that provides tactile feedback that is superior. The cord has a nice length to it without being too long and is easy to adjust with a simple tie or cord management. Overall it exceeded my expectations.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The staples mouse is light weight and fits my hand very well. The mouse wheel is smooth and can click either button with ease. The DPI switch is very nice as you can seamlessly change the mouse sensitivity with the click of a button. I also like you just plug the mouse in and it is ready to go. No need for any software installs.
