Microsoft Surface Mobile Mouse

For such a simple device, this mouse ticks quite a few boxes for me: Reliable. I bought two of these, around 4-5 years ago. Both still function perfectly, and neither have ever let me down. Compatible. These are my "on the go" mice, and they've connected seamlessly to all sorts of systems and workstations. Rugged. Mine have taken more than their fair share of knocks, and drops. Yet to cause any issues, despite the butterfingers.

Accurate. Not a high-octane "gamer mouse", yet it doesn't pretend to be one. Additional software from the manufacturer can almost double the DPI, but it's plenty accurate for even the most detailed office work.

Flat & Comfortable. Some folks may not like the low profile of this device, and I found it a little odd at first. Though after years of use, I've found the low profile to be much better on my wrists and hands. Especially if working long hours.

Ambidextrous, and suitable for a left-hander; no weird buttons in uncomfortable places, or missing crucial device functionality because of the design.

The only real downside to this device? Its age. While I still find the specs ample for everyday professional use, I've recently had to replace crucial parts of my home network. For one reason or another, sadly, this mouse doesn't want to play nice with my new KVM. Though I strongly suspect the KVM is to blame in this instance, it will be cheaper, and simpler, to finally upgrade these mice.

So reluctantly, I'll be looking for replacements soon. Though you can bet I'll be keeping both of these around, as they're too good to not be used.

Love this mouse – Purchased a different MS mouse to go with my new surface laptop and have regretted not getting the mobile which I just got given with my work chrome book and I love it .

Great Mouse – This is a great mouse for on the go. It has a low profile in my bag, but is large enough to work with comfortably. Very smooth and scrolls well, accurate and works on most surfaces - glass can be a bit glitchy. Love that it matches my other surface accessories and has a long battery life. As it is Bluetooth, it saves a usb slot - which is very important on machines with few ports available, although does cause a bigger drain on comp's battery life as you have to leave Bluetooth continuously turned on.

Wouldn't want to use it as a full time mouse for home comp, but for a travel mouse, fantastic
