It's my favorite mouse of all time (and I have owned lots of expensive ones very expensive ones)because of my ADHD. I tend to leave mice's places, and this is the first mouse that hits both enjoyable to use and complete apathy for leaving it at a Starbucks I love it. It's comfortable long lasting battery nicely weighted connects every time and overall a pleasure to use it has good mouse skates a nice texture solid scroll wheel with features that make it feel lightweight by design and solid not lightweight because of a lack of quality which seems to be a hard thing to do for a lot of budget mouse developers and other brand essential ones like Amazon essentials and my favorite thing of all whenever I lose it, there's another one waiting for me at Best Buy and nobody mentions this, but it's small however, the very front of the house has a tapered edge that's flat with the front but still attached to the left and right click button buttons so if you have a big hand, you can grab the mouse fully and just hit the left and right mouse buttons on the front not just the top so it's big hand people friendly the first joint on your finger at the end just rest perfectly on the corner, where the L and R mouse buttons start to taper down towards the front of the mouse leaving your fingers just slightly extending past the front of the house without feeling like the mouse is too small (DOESN'T FEEL LIKE YOUR TOES HANGING OFF A FLIP-FLOP THAT'S TOO SMALL when fully seated at the back of your palm)

I am very happy with the Best Buy Essentials Bluetooth mouse, connected easily, smooth operating, feels comfortable in my hand, I find the BB brands Essentials, Insignia to be good value and reliable products. It came with Energizer max batteries. Got a couple of months of use on it and won't be surprised if that becomes years.

Although I have a few optical mousies (or mice if you prefer), my new laptop has Bluetooth capabilities so I wanted to eliminate the use of a USB-A dongle (wireless adapter) to free up the port. After searching and reviewing numerous mice options, I chose this one. Ahhh basically because I am somewhat cheap (or thrifty as I prefer). A very simple process to setup and configure, plus the extra buttons are an added bonus getting around web pages and setting the DPI. Battery life is at the moment unknown, we’ll see. The size is about the same size in my hand as my previous mice, so it feels good and something I am used to. If I had one complaint, it would be to lower, or better yet completely eliminate, the “clicking” noise it makes when using the top left and right mouse buttons. Other than that, highly recommended for less than twenty bucks.

This mouse gobbles batteries up (it takes 2 AAA batteries and the compartment is tight, but works great with a charging system and 4-8 AAAs, I use eneloop batteries and chargers, I have two of these mice and always have another battery ready). The bluetooth pairing on Win10/11 OSX is flawless and it doesn't hitch much, remember when restarting, the bluetooth might be disabled and use your keyboard to accept reboot at times, that's normal for anything not tied in with a direct usb cable. the side buttons are great for traversing up and down history in browsers and undo and redo in photoshop or illustrator and or ms word / excel.

This mouse have the requisites I needed, direct bluethoot connection without using any usb port, small size and compact. It works seamlessly both in Windows and in Linux (Ubuntu)

A versatile mouse with all the features and without the premium brand cost. Lightweight mouse that is comfortable to hold. Very easy to connect to the PC as windows recognized it right away. Connection and response is good as long as not too far away from the computer.

Pretty solid mouse. Easy to connect to my pc, Never experienced any disconnects so far. Feels durable. Only con was that it's tiny. But i guess i should have ch3cked the dimensuons first. I dont have large hands but it feels pretty tiny. I dont mind though because it don't use it for gaming and only use it for browsing.

I initially bought it to play geoguessar with my laptop but now it travels with me everywhere and I use it for work everyday. It is small and compact but still comfortable for it's size and fits perfectly into one of my previously unsued laptop bag pockets. The battery life is long and is always super easy to connect to and switch between devices.

I've honestly had no issues with this mouse since I bought it. I use it on my tablet and it connects very quickly, has great response time, no lagging or random disconnects so far. It fits pretty well in my hand too. Honestly I expected it to be much worse for the price I got it. I highly recommend it for a budget mouse.

These are great mice, however they do not last too long. I've purchased at least 5 or more for my computers. They work great but for whatever reason they randomly simply stop working and lose their ability to connect to anything. After the 3i have left stop working in going to pay a little more to get a better product. I guess what is said is true..."you get what you pay for"! Honestly, I would not recommend this product until they figure out how to make one that lasts. They stop working randomly!

Just b/c the brand name says "Best Buy Essentials" does NOT mean that the quality of the product will be questionable. In fact, this mouse works just as well as other name-brand Bluetooth mice I've bought in the past. LOL... well, when you stop & think about it, unless you're a gamer or some other type of high-end computer user, all of the mice currently selling in stores are pretty much the same!

very easy to pair with MacBook Air m2, works well no delay in motion, great price, and comes with a battery.

Who says Bluetooth has to be expensive? This is the perfect price. Have your pc search for the device,connect and you're ready. On/Off switch saves the battery. Using with Samsung Galaxy 360 Pro.

I got this nice little comfortable mouse for $10 seeing that I had $5 in rewards points. It comes with two AAA batteries. It connects easily to my M1 MacBook Air. It is super comfortable (I do have small hands). The scrolling mechanism seems to be quality, and easily scrolls up and down. I saw some negative comments about that, but had no issues with it personally. Actually I like this mouse so much, I'll buy another one and keep on the shelf as a backup.

This bluetooth mouse is working so much better than my wireless usb mouse.

I bought this mouse 6 months ago due to it's great value. It's worked wonderful for the last 6 months. Replaced the batteries after 3-4 months of use. I went to replace the battery again 6 months after purchasing and the mouse wouldn't turn on. The bottom battery wasn't making contact with both sides of the contactors and was very loose. I stuck a small pick to bend the spring side of the contactor back where it'll be tight on the battery. Placed batteries back into position and the mouse worked! I think this is a build quality problem and could use improvement if Best Buy is to make a next generation. Otherwise if you're looking for something that will just "work" this is great but you may experience the same problems I did.

With the advent of USBc and MacBooks killing all ports, i came in need of a Bluetooth mouse. This works well. Quick connection, remembered by my MacBook and connecting automatically. Light and small. So small it is a little uncomfortable for me but your mileage may vary.
