TECKNET Wireless Mouse, 2.4G USB Computer Mouse with 6-Level Adjustable 4800 DPI, Silent Mouse Quiet Click，30 Months Battery, Ergonomic Grips, 6 Buttons Portable for PC, Chromebook, Mac - Grey

I've had 3 or 4 of these over the years for various laptops and I always go with this brand.Fantastic build quality, just the right size, clicky buttons, works flawless with our without a mouse pad, and you can store the dongle inside the mouse.The feature I like most is the auto turn off system that simply turns the mouse off after a period of disuse without you having to flip the switch manually. It then turns back on with a click.This makes it so if you have this sitting on your desk you never need to turn it off and those batteries will last you a very long time.

I got the purple mouse, and the color is pretty disappointing: it's a lighter, less saturated, warm dusty mauve kind of color, rather the jewel-toned dark purple shown in the image.But the mouse works fine, and at $10 that seems pretty impressive by itself. It's molded almost exactly like the more expensive Logitech mouse I got over a decade ago, which is nice.I do have to say I consider the dpi button kind of pointless, since you can always change cursor speed in the mouse settings menu, so its only real function is to get bumped accidentally and annoy me by changing things around. But I guess if you're sharing your mouse with a bunch of different people it might be useful.Still a pretty good deal.

Works well.

I like the size of this mouse, my hands aren't huge but I have long fingers and I still find it comfortable. The button presses are decent, not like a true 'gaming' mouse, but have a soft yet distinct click. I also really appreciate having the side buttons for forward/back. The wheel is fine, and I like that you can set the speed with just one button press. Setup is a no-brainer, as with other mice on windows just plug in the dongle and it works.My only complaint is some slight tracking inconsistency, it seems like occasionally the cursor will jump or just not register, usually in the middle of long, fast movements, but it's hasn't been a huge issue for me, especially for the price.UPDATED 12/2/24 3 to 4 stars: The seller reached out to me about the tracking/cursor issues. They gave me some fixes to try, which did not fix the issue, and ultimately sent out a replacement. The replacement mouse is working fine, no problems, and I was really impressed with their support. +1 stars for excellent support, really making this a great value mouse! Sure it's not a high performance gaming mouse, but for everyday office or general use it's great and really tough to beat for the price!

For reference, I bought this mouse on November 28th, 2015 for $9.97. The current date that I'm writing this review is August 4th, 2017. The mouse is still intact and working as well as it had when I first bought it. You would expect a cheap mouse like this break after so much time, but it has maintained itself quite well. It helps a bit that this mouse is on the heftier side, the weight really helps. 2.65 ounces isn't much, but i had been using a dinkier mouse than this one. I have average sized hands, maybe smaller so take that snip-it with a grain of salt.When I bought it, it took some time for me to get used to it. Like any item, I took some time to break into the setup of the mouse. The clicks were a little heavy, but that changed after some weeks of use. The wheel is nice and smooth. Over the course of my usage, it hasn't broken, hasn't caught itself on its own parts. The middle mouse button STILL works splendidly. The click function still works, it doesn't take that much force to use. I do a fair amount of web browsing on top of gaming. This mouse works very well for both cases.The DPI switch was a nice addition to have in the beginning. Finding the right DPI to use in different scenarios and tasks, this mouse is a good start. Although throughout my own maturity I realized I didn't actually need very high DPI for most of my tasks, but to each their own. The circuitry and programming inside the mouse saves battery life quite well. When the mouse is not in use for more than 10 minutes at a time, it goes to sleep and conserves power. This eliminates the need to keep turning off the power to the mouse every time you stop using the mouse. It makes it easier to transport too. You can't awaken the mouse by moving it around, but instead by clicking the mouse buttons a couple times or rolling the mouse wheel. So a simple shuffle won't unnecessarily waste power. But if you are still inclined to turn off the switch per habit, again to each their own.The DPI switch acts as both, obviously a switch, but also as an indicator. Whenever the battery life gets low or whenever you need to start finding a fresh battery, the DPI light will start periodically flashing red. The mouse will still work even if the light is flashing, but by the time the light stops flashing while in use, the battery is dead. It runs on a simple AA battery, which will last you quite a while. In my usage, each battery through this mouse lasts me anywhere from 2-3 months. I game in my spare time, mind you. The sleep module works really well. Probably part of the reason this lasted as long as it did.The thumb/side buttons are not only comfortable but easy to use. You can't accidentally bump into the buttons to activate it, these buttons aren't that touchy. The thumb imprint works really well. It gives a relaxing position to keep my thumb under extended use. Speaking of comfortably, if you've ever looked at your hand in rest position (palm facing up), this mouse will cradle that position very well. It's not perfect, it is a medium sized mouse but it is contoured very well. The USB connector holds a very strong connection with the mouse. When you need to transport it, and not lose it by accident, it tucks nicely in the light-spring slot on the bottom of the mouse. It makes for very easy transportation.This is the only qualm and my only con about this mouse: the shape. I will not lie this mouse is shaped a little strange. By nature, human fingers vary in length, specifically speaking, the middle finger is longer than the index. The picture isn't lying; the right-click button which I typically use with my middle finger is shorter than the left click button which i use with my index. I had to adopt a claw position on my mouse (curved fingers into a more clicking position) to use this mouse as my middle finger kept going over the button. I still think that button should be longer, but again, that's my opinion.All in all, Good work, Tecknet.Edit: About a week after I wrote this review, then the mouse started giving me problems. Double clicking, Unregistered clicks, Under representing movements, etc. FML. On the plus side, this mouse did last 2 years.

Works like a charm, thank you.
