Īfter some longer term use again with my RAT M, I found that I just couldn't use it with the precision that I liked. I could as well get the Sculpt Comfort for my SP3 and a wired RAT for my desktop PC, and still spend the same as a MOUS9. It seems like durability isn't their strong suit. That's what makes me afraid of investing on another Microsoft mouse. And the scroll wheel has gotten really really loose. At one point, it refused to work for months, although it magically came back to life, somehow. I can use it either for horizontal scroll or zoom (how well does it zoom btw? Is it smooth?) when I have the SP3 attached to my non-touch monitor or with my desktop PC.Īnd I have a Microsoft mouse (Wireless 700) that doesn't age that well. Haven't found any other mouse with that feature. And they didn't even make that button customizableĪctually, the reason why I haven't got the Sculpt Comfort is the fact that RAT/MOUS has an additional scroll wheel. Even when there was no keyboard, it takes no time to flick to the bottom left corner and hit the start button. The keyboard already has a start button and can be easily hit with the left hand. I really like the rubberized texture and appreciate that on certain mice for the thumb and little finger.Ĭlick to expand.Even for me that uses metro 80% of the time, the start button on a mouse is still utterly useless. You are probably right that the angular dimensions just didn't suit me. I believe the Gigabyte one is also not as large: The Razer Orochi is not as big as the MOUS9.

Actually until you reminded me of the MOUS9 I didn't think there were any full-size mouse formats in Bluetooth out there. I have been using it with new alkaline batteries since November with no issues still.Ĥ.

So it was stored for many months and used for maybe 3 before I swapped batteries. However the battery I didn't change until more than 12 months later and I didn't think that they needed changing but was testing with another laptop (Lenovo Yoga 2) and wanted to give it a fresh chance as I was having trouble pairing it with that laptop. My older laptop didn't do very well with the BT as it was the older (I think BT3) and disconnected every so often.


Battery life - I did purchase the mouse a year ago for a different computer and then when I got my SP3 I pulled it out to try. Unlike my Logitech Performance MX which I can attest to be being durable after dropping it out of the trunk of a car and it bounced a couple of times on the parking lot.ģ. It doesn't come with a small padded baggy that I transport it but I do not baby it during transport. I will give it a try when I get back to my mouse which I left in my office.Ģ. if they were not close to each other I would suspect this to work as you intend. I might suspect that they would both start to take input. However I haven't tried it and not sure which one it would pick up first if they were both nearby. I supposed you could use the included dongle on a computer and continue to use the BT for the SP3.
