REVIEW
Design and Comfort
The build quality is good, with minimalist design which makes it look simple. There is a sleek curve that gives in-hand comfort while working all day. Moreover, the black matte finish is anti-fingerprint i.e. the fingerprint marks are not visible with naked eyes. And if you are working all day, the ergonomic design helps you to get a firm grip and smooth functioning, however, prevents your wrist from aching. It is worth noting that you will hear very less clicking sound which doesn’t bother your ears.
As there are only 3 buttons, the mouse is not ideal for gaming since a gaming mouse requires some additional buttons for better controls.
Performance
The 1000 DPI optical sensor performs very well on any flat surface, the scroll wheel is swift and the response is quick. You can scroll through your documents with speed and ease. The cursor movement is fast that offers smooth functioning even if you’re dragging any image/folder or copying and pasting.
Pros
- Simple design and comfortable grip
- Lightweight
- Smooth functioning
- Can be used on most of the surfaces
- Travel friendly
Cons
There is no power on/off button which may cause battery drainage but there’s a solution for that you can take out the USB dongle which automatically switches off the mouse. The battery life is average which can be a disadvantage.
