Microsoft - Surface Arc Mouse - Bluetooth BlueTrack Ambidextrous Mouse - Wireless - Light Gray

The mouse is an optional accessory to have, the mouse can be used bent and it can be flat, the mouse looks very clean, the mouse was very good for less than $100.00, the mouse works fine, the mouse looks hardly used, the mouse only works with a Windows brand name PC, the mouse looks silver metallic in the online description seller’s picture but the mouse arrived in a different color in the mail and the color like grey with no metallic touch, the mouse looks is in very good condition, the mouse works fast and specially if you are using the newest hybrid Windows Surface PCs.

The two main features of this mouse are the flexible body and the touch pad “buttons” When traveling you can flatten the mouse and in doing so it powers off, great feature to save batteries and having to remember to switch off when running out the door. The mouse doesn’t have conventional buttons or a scroll wheel but a touchpad that you can click on either side or slide a finger to scroll vertically or horizontally. You might need to download the “Microsoft mouse and keyboard center” app to tweak the settings as I found the horizontal scrolling needed to be set to maximum to be useful. The shape of the mouse makes it a little hard for me to work with the same precision as a regular mouse. The arch shape fills the hand but there is no body under the arch for my thumb and small finger to grip. Over time I might get used to it and modify my grip. Good mouse, looks slick but a bit pricy. Get it on sale when you can!

I like the overall portability and design of this mouse, though you need some time to adjust to this design and may find it relatively hard initially to use, but after some time it becomes easy and comfortable. Other aspects that I like are the touch sensitive scrolling and dongle-free and stable bluetooth connection.

I really like the stylish design which I purchased the mouse in the first place. It is very responsive with a long battery life. The only downside to it is after a while, my wrist becomes sore.

Overall, great value for the money when I purchased this during the Deal of the Day promotion. See pros and cons below: Pros: - Great bluetooth connectivity - Easy portability - Preserves battery life when you shut down mouse by flattening when not in use Cons: - Can take some getting used to if you have used mouse with multiple click buttons in the past - Scroll response feels different and slower vs. previous mouse with a scroll wheel
