> 3 dayI used notebook/portable mouses from Microsoft (specifically some variation on this one https://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Wireless-Mobile-Mouse-4000/dp/B002DPUUL4/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=microsoft+mouse&qid=1602543672&sr=8-3) for years. That form factor became comfortable (average to slightly above average sized hands) and every mouse Ive used since has felt too big and flat for my hand to rest the way I was used to. But sadly, that mouse itself has become too slow/inaccurate for the work I do as a designer, and the casual gaming I do in my leisure time. This mouse is a bit flatter than that Microsoft mouse, but the build quality is 100x better, and the form factor absolutely works. No problems so far either, Ive heard the dongle can break, but on my setup the dongle goes in, and doesnt need to come out, so Im good! If it breaks, Ill adjust my score!

> 3 dayAbsolutely love this mouse! It is definitely a bit smaller than your standard mouse and that made me nervous, especially since I have bigger hands - but I quickly got used to it and after a few hours it was more comfortable than my previous mouse which was more average in size. The AA batteries give it a nice weight and the click although not silent, is very satisfying and feels well built. I also enjoy the scroll wheel as it has a solid texture and is easy to be precise when scrolling. Very clean design and look.

Greater than one weekThis has been working perfectly for me since day 1 of its release. I have had no problems whats so ever with either the 2.4ghz dongle or bluetooth and with my Eneloop batteries I get multiple months before I need to even think about changing batteries. Save is perfect for traveling and fits in my laptop bag nicely since it has a pocket that fits it snugly. When I got it it made my old Deathadder 3.5g from 2010 feel sluggish lol. I keep the mouse at 4200 DPI on a 15.6 1920x1080 laptop and its perfect. With it being both bluetooth and 2.4ghz I can use it perfectly on 2 seprate devices which is a great feature to have as I just plug the dongle into a desktop real quick or another laptop if I am working on it and boom no drivers needed for when I am fixing the laptop/desktop.

> 3 dayThe mouse is much smaller than I expected. I have large hands and its a little uncomfortable to use. So thats not a terrible thing, unless you are large featured like me. Otherwise its a great mouse, no complaints.

> 3 dayThis is a smaller mouse. I wanted something that I could toss in my laptop bag. Wasnt planning on using it for gaming at all. I had issues with the bluetooth that I couldnt really resolve on my laptop. Switched to the dongle that works perfectly. Setup my razer account and ported over my settings from my Deathadder. Works like a charm. Im concerned about the battery life. I put batteries in this thing and have been using it for months. I know 350 hours is a long time, but Im pretty sure Ive exceeded that. Dont get me wrong its a good thing. Just kinda worried it might be using my life force instead or something.

> 3 dayMouse feels good in the hand, battery seems like it will last forever and the dongle for 2.4ghz is super compact. Four stars for the BT connection which is my primary use, it’s better than most but still has some disconnects and times it just randomly stops responding. The adjustable DPI is nice but the razed software to configure is very buggy.

> 3 dayThis is a fantastic mouse and if you are looking for something portable, clean, and functional then this is a great product to purchase. My only complaint is that when gaming it is too small for me; however, I can fit it in my pockets and can connect anywhere with the Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz.

> 3 dayGreat wireless mouse, razor synapse is it’s only downside, if you get stuttering or jumps , reset the mouse and re-install synapse, set the polling rate to 500hz or lower, and lift off settings to 10.

> 3 dayIt works but not as advertised. The 1000hz polling rate only applies if you use the dongle. If you connect via bluetooth, you do not have the option of polling higher than 250hz. Bluetooth was the entire reason I got this thing though. So if I have to use wifi anyway, I may as well get a better mouse. Its not awful. But the batteries are not rechargeable. It only has 5 buttons total. And it is really small. If you have big hands, using this mouse will be a problem. I have average sized hands (well...for my size...Im 62) and for me, this feels really (uncomfortably) tiny. Like, even doing work with it ia awkward...gaming on it would be even more so. If all you want is a basic mouse that is portable and has bluetooth capability, this is probably fine. But $50 seems a little steep for a basic mouse like this. There is really nothing that special about it. No LED lighting, limited buttons, no high polling rate. I ended up returning it. EDIT - I removed the part about Wifi drops. Apparently this is an issue with all bluetooth mice. You can solve it by connecting to wifi at 5ghz (Bluetooth uses part of the 2.4ghz spectrum), and also changing laptop Bluetooth power settings so that they are on preformance all the time (many laptops are configured to try to save power on Bluetooth, but you can override it in settings).

> 3 dayThis is basically a glorified travel mouse. It works well, good functionality, but its too small to be a gaming mouse. Thats fine, Ill use it for work.
