Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I may not be a world-wide expert on mice, but I've had my experience of a few. I started with no-name mice in the early 1990s, but soon switched to Microsoft Mice because they were much more reliable. That was true until about two years ago, when two wireless Microsoft mice broke on me after six months each.
At this time, one of the local discount chains was having a sale on Logitech wireless mice, and I bought one because it was a name brand wireless mouse. It has worked very well to this day, and prompted me to get another Logitech mouse when I bought my netbook.
That new mouse went on my desktop, and has proved as reliable as the other Logitech mouse. Because my new Asus eee 1000HE netbook has a realistic 6:30 hours life, I use it in bed. The plain blanket is the "mouse pad."
The only disadvantage of the old Logitech mouse was that it has a relatively huge receiver stuck in a USB port. I'm worried that one night I will somehow put pressure on this, or drop it, and break the motherboard.
That's why I was attracted to the Verbatim mouse. The "Nano" in its name refers to the tiny receiver which protrudes from the netbook. It's so small that it is only large enough to grab to pull it out of the computer. In fact I think this is unlikely, because once installed you won't want to take it out. It's definitely not a point of leverage.
The Verbatim and the Logitech behave the same. The lack of a mouse pad doesn't worry them. The only strange behavior comes when you rest your hands on the mouse without moving it, when the cursor moves across your screen as though there was a magic hand guiding the mouse. I've tried to stop this in both mice, but it seems that resting your hand tilts the mouse to a degree. I've tried resting my hand and not tilting the mouse, but I can't do it with either mouse. I would imagine a mouse pad would fix this, but it's not really that troublesome.
But otherwise the Verbatim mouse is fine. It's light, it moves easily, and the buttons work well and don't show any signs of breaking. A minor point is that it needs two AAA batteries, but two come in the package. We always have plenty of AA batteries around, so I guess that we'll have to buy a bunch of AAAs. There seem to be no problems with range.
Battery changes shouldn't be necessary that often because if you install the receiver in the bottom of the mouse it switches off. If you keep the receiver in the computer there's an automatic power off after thirty seconds. If you do put the receiver in the mouse it needs a firm push to release it.
There are some computer peripherals that you should be able to "set and forget" like mice. This mouse does that. I would imagine that you might find another mouse that equals the Verbatim, but few that are better. Hence five stars, because it does what you want it to do.
