Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0
Customer Review: Feels Like Heaven To Hold
Summary: 5 Stars
This mouse feels amazing to use, for both regular PC use and gaming. I can't explain how happy I am with this mouse, especially at it's current $32 price.
It's very lightweight, so that might influence your opinion. I was surprised how much more I preferred a light mouse, especially after I didn't mind the configurable weights on the Logitech G500.
It's also fairly large. I have medium-to-small sized hands, so I've usually avoided larger mice. This mouse was a pleasant surprise however, as it's easy to use despite the size. I'm guessing this is due to the weight, but I can't be certain.
In short, it's accurate, comfortable, and a pleasure to use - at a price that's well worth it.
Customer Review: Among the finest computer mice ever made
Summary: 5 Stars
I spend an inordinate amount of money on computer input devices, and this is my favorite mouse. It is simple, and does a simple job very well.
Pros:
- Very comfortable and ergonomic. The button placement is ideal.
- Doesn't require special drivers. This avoids a lot of headaches (good Linux support, for example).
Cons:
- Only 400dpi. This is not an ideal gaming mouse. I use it on my work computer, so the sensitivity is perfectly adequate for me.
Other things to consider:
- It's a wired mouse.
- It only has 5 buttons, and no left/right tilt on the scroll wheel.
- Right handed only.
Customer Review: It's nice for the price.
Summary: 5 Stars
It's better than my previous mouse which was some 10 dollar Logitech mouse. And the extra buttons on the side are also helpful. I think this mouse is good for it's price. The only thing I could really complain about the mouse is when scrolling with the scroll wheel it's easy to accidentally click the scroll wheel button, and sometimes, I think when I scrolled, it continue to scroll like... The... I don't know. Just the scroll wheel can be kinda frustrating. But that's it. Scroll wheel is not too big of a problem really. :) Also, the LED in the back of the mouse is bright in a dark room. Lol. So, I have to turn it around so I can sleep.Customer Review: Best mouse ever
Summary: 5 Stars
When this mouse first came out a few years ago, myself and my friends all used it, we're avid gamers and it quite simply is the best for gaming, it feels perfect in your hand.
It's light, the scroll wheel is precise and it's cheaper than those overpriced laser mice which I've owned (don't listen to the non-gamers reviewing this mouse as they were not the intended target for the re-release of this mouse). I got rid of my logitech G5 and got the IE3.0 instead.
If you are hesitating to get this mouse, DON'T. I just hope they don't stop selling it.
Customer Review: Dad loved it! Score!
Summary: 5 Stars
I use an Microsoft Intellimouse from a couple of years ago and I love it. Then I visited my father whose mouse was made in the dark ages and using it drove me nuts. No scroll wheel, no side buttons for going forward/backward on pages, etc. It wasn't even a good fit for anyone's hand. I sent him this Intellimouse for his birthday. He absolutely LOVES it! It was one of the most successful presents I have ever given him. He spends a lot more time on his computer than he did before. Now, if I can only get him to check his emails more often.....
