Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Microsoft Habu Laser Gaming Mouse (Black)Customer Review: Frustrating double-click issue Summary: 3 StarsEdit: Great support from Microsoft! They offered to replace my Habu mouse with the Sidewinder X5, or give the money back. I took the money back, but I might get the Sidewinder X5 anyway because it's reviewed pretty well and has the DPI switching I love. Thanks Microsoft! Here is the review I made before:
There is one issue with this mouse that trumps all the other cool stuff about it: Accidental double-clicks. Not the result of a software setting anywhere, but seemingly a hardware issue that makes it so every 30 clicks more or less is a double click.
It started a few months after I bought it. After scouring the internet for a fix, the only thing that ended up working was pressing the button down really hard. But even then the issue would come back in a few days, and now even that fix seems not to work.
I love the DPI switching buttons. I love the look, I love the feel, I love the software that comes with it. But none of that matters if the mouse itself doesn't work right.
I am a web designer, so I need to be precise when working with software like Photoshop. The mouse performs great up until the issue pops up again.
I'm off to buy a cheaper mouse with a better record on reliability. And yes, I'm switching to Logitech. Microsoft mice are out of the picture for me for a while. *not
Lastly, I will say that I never tried opening the mouse to fix it, because I don't have the know how. Maybe this would be an easy fix for someone out there, but not for me.
