  • Summary: wirless mouse
  • Comment: It works great with my mac. I wish it were bigger though. It's small and very portable. But for every day use, my hand fatigues quicker than with my prior large mouse.

  • Summary: Good for what it is.
  • Comment: I can't fault the product itself. It feels like it is built well and works fine, however it may be too small for many hands. I work with photoshop all day long and have found that after a few weeks the small size has made my wrist pains flare up more often than with normal size mice. Was hoping it would be curvy enough to avoid that, but apparently not.

    Its good for presentations and short term use, but if you have wrist problems, look at the Evoluent vertical mouse instead. Still looking for a more portable, bluetooth version of the Evoluent.

  • Summary: Poor Construction, Loose Interpretations of measurements
  • Comment: I ordered this bluetooth mouse for use with my laptop. Before purchasing I compared the measurements to another comfortable, wired mouse I owned and they were identical. After receiving the mouse I measured it because it was smaller than the other mouse. Their "length" measurement was a diagonal measurement, which is misleading.

    The mouse tends to drop the bluetooth connection from time to time, at random.

    I eventually returned the mouse to Amazon. A month after I bought it the battery indicator failed. Do not try to get in touch with ASUS, their customer service is non-existent.

    All in all I would not recommend this mouse; it was uncomfortable in my hand (too small), the construction was poor (cheap plastic), and it broke after a month. I ended up spending another $10 and getting a Logiteh trackball mouse and love it.

  • Summary: Ergonomically Terible
  • Comment: I purchased this mouse with the intent of having a small, bluetooth mouse that I could throw in a bag and bring with me when I'm using my laptop away from home. Many other reviews have complained about the size of this mouse, but I would say that the size is not a problem and I have used smaller mice without issue. The shape of the mouse, and layout of the buttons, on the other hand, are a different story. The top buttons seem harder to press than they should be. I believe this is a result of how curved the top surface is. The two side buttons are almost unusable. The rear one is reachable, if I move my thumb, but the front one is impossible to reach while holding the mouse in anything resembling a comfortable position. I literally have to let go of the mouse to press it.
    Even just holding the mouse and ignoring the side buttons seems to get very uncomfortable and your hand just falls into a very unnatural position.

    If this was significantly cheaper than a equivalent Logitech or Microsoft mouse, and was intended for light or occasional use, then I might be able to overlook the design issues, but not at this price.

    It is also worth noting that the Amazon product description states that this requires two AA batteries, but it actually uses two AAAs.

    Pros
    Good size for a travel mouse
    Quick and painless bluetooth pairing
    Laser tracking seems fast and responsive

    Cons
    No side-to-side scroll wheel
    Worthless side buttons
    Feels fairly light and flimsy (lightweight might be a Pro for some people)
    Painfully uncomfortable

  • Summary: Solid mobile mouse
  • Comment: I bought this mouse to go along with the ASUS G73JH laptop. I love the laptop and this mouse. I have a logitech V220 for my other laptop this mouse is about the same size. I love that's it's bluetooth, NO usb plugin to make it work. I had no problems setting it up it's been working fine. If your looking for a bluetooth, compact, stylish, mobile mouse I would recommend the ASUS BX700. This is the 3rd ASUS product I have bought recently (laptop, mouse, RT-N16 router), once again another ASUS product I am happy with.
