I bought this mouse because the cables were getting in the way on my desk. My primary usage is work and a small amount of gaming. I used to use a gaming mouse. With this mouse, the response is great, the scroll wheel has good stops, and the wireless range is actually very good. What I dont like is that sometimes it seems like I have to exert too much force to click. Its minor, and Im not returning it or using my old mouse because of it, but I notice it every so often. Me and my laptop and mouse do alot of traveling and I go through computer mice often, so replacing them is not new.
This is not the first time getting a Microsoft mouse. The performance is excellent and the comfort of it is great as well. As for longevity of the device, the do last a good amount of time and most likely more if not traveled with(or packed more carefully when traveling) but I am very satisfied with the product I bought. This mouse is black, and ergonomically designed - its very comfortable to use. It is very easy to use, just plug in the usb key to your computer.The price was affordable and, overall a great product.
