Nice, ergonomic flat storage optical mouse. Functions perfectly with Windows laptop. Slightly elevated cost for item though recent price drop may appeal to others. Arc mouse provides comfort over standard mouse & purpose of my purchase.

Its an amazing mouse, I have my computer inside a Pelican case and i just love how flat this mouse gets to put away. Love the texture and how responsive it is as well. Just perfect, Will have to buy my family one.

Works great. Doesn’t use much battery, it’s slim and easy to tuck in a bag. Haven’t had any tech issues with it either. Has a bit of a weird shape for my had but can easily get used to

Super portable mouse with a bluetooth connection and more battery stamina than is needed. the horizontal scroll is kinda trippy, but fun when you get used to it, especially in larger excel files. It has some difficulty on cloth mouse pad surfaces in my opinion and gets a little sticky if it's not a speed mat basically. This wasn't purchased to game with though, just to use when I am out of the house and would like the perceived convenience of a mouse over a touchpad. Other than that, works great on almost every other surface and has about the smallest form factor ever. The way you collapse it to turn it on and off is also great since I don't have to fumble with a tiny button somewhere and flip my mouse around. When I'm done, I just press down flat and toss it in my laptop bag. If you want a portable mouse for gaming... maybe get the viper mini or something, but this mouse is great for anything else.
Definitely a worthwhile purchase as a travel mouse, especially if it's on sale.

Best Quality. Really really THIN. Specially for traveling and placed with a laptop in the flat position. its paper thin. Battery life is really long. Doesn't need the usb connection to laptop it is Bluetooth and never loses connection

This mouse has a very quick reaction, speed and extraordinarily long battery life. I love it because I can store it anywhere because it goes flat and it turns on just like arching it and it just really makes it nice.

The Microsoft Arc Mouse is an atypical mouse, in that it focuses on portability and design over conformity to traditional features we expect from a mouse.
This means a glass trackpad-like surface instead of a scroll well, and a unique design that sees the mouse "arc" into your hand, then fold flat when you're done.
In the end, it all comes together to make a very premium product that does exactly what it advertises, justifies its asking price, and slots away into the smallest of spaces when you need it too.
You use gestures like two-finger scrolling, so you still get all the same functionality from your mouse, even if it takes some getting used to.
The mouse is also smart. When folded flat, it's turned off. When arced, Bluetooth connected automatically and quickly, and you're ready to go.
Overall, I highly recommend it. If you're not looking to spend so much, the normal Surface Mouse is still more portable than the average mouse and is more traditional at a significantly lower price.

I live this little thing. Tucks away nicely in your backpack. Battery life is good for me for what I use this surface for. I love how it immmediately works when you ‘snap it on’.

Excellent bluetooth mouse and has been super convenient for both travel and carrying in my backpack everyday along with my Surface Pro 4. It is not as comfortable as my other mice, which is to be expected given the design, but you can not beat the small size and portability. It is also bluetooth so I don't have to waste a USB port or carry a hub (the Surface Pro 4 only has one USB port). At home, I prefer my Logitech Anywhere mouse but this is my go to for travel. I also like that the top of the mouse can actually be used like a touch scroll wheel with two fingers (note, there is no physical wheel). The mouse just works and I have not had any issues with it. Battery life has been good so far too.

If you are looking for a modern looking mouse that is light and compact, this is a great choice. It stores flat, and when you want to use it, just bend it and it will arc ergonomically to fit your palm perfectly...At least to my hand, 5'8" man. If you have extra large hand it may feel a little small.
The mouse feels precise both in moving cursor and tapping.
The only two downsides I can think of right now are:
1) Price seems premium for an unique premium product, but if you don't prioritize compact/lightweight...There are many other options at the price range...Think corsair and Logitech.
2) some display units seems to have a layer of grime/dirt...I am not sure whether it will be easy to keep clean after extensive usage.
Overall, I like it for my need and purpose.

I picked up this mouse for use with a Microsoft surface, and there's a lot of positive features of this mouse. Its easy to setup, connect, and start using. I love that it folds flat and makes for easy storage for when on the go. It connects via Bluetooth so there's a number of possible uses for it not just a surface. The only thing i don't like about it is that it doesn't have a mouse wheel/third button. You can scroll with it but for example when using it for CAD programs that usually rely on a wheel/third button for many functions this lacks that. Other than that slight downfall I absolutely love this product and for daily use would totally recommend it.
If this does not address the functionality you are looking for, we would recommend reaching out to the software manufacturer. Thanks for sharing this information with the community.
Best,

This mouse is comfortable, ergonomic for all-day use, it performs well and is easier than a traditional mouse to use. It comes in a variety of colors, mine is a purple color that makes it stand out against the other mouses in the office.

this mouse works amazing with my laptop! I do think you should make it a little cheaper in price just so more people would buy it. but other besides that i think it is way better than an apple mouse! this mouse has made the work i do on my laptop go so much quicker, i also love how it can fold back down to a small size so it is easily accessible and doesn’t take up too much space in your bag and you can bring it everywhere you take your laptop.

I like this mouse very much! It is easy to use, flattens out, takes up little to no space, feels nice to touch, amd moves effortlessly. Although it can be synced to multiple devices, I like to match the colors to my surface devices. Also, the battey life is very long. Great product.

People seem to either love or hate this mouse. I love it. It flattens out to about 2" x 5", or about the size of a small iPhone, except slimmer. You can easily just carry in your pocket, or toss it in whatever bag compartment available. It is durable; I've put it in my back pocket a couple times, accidently sat on it, and no problem (although I wouldn't recommend it as a habit). I actually put some black electric tape over the battery compart for a little extra protection and water (spill) resistance, which does not affect usage at all.
When you want to use it, just pop it up and it literally works on any surface. You can use it on your leg/knee just fine when on flight or other constrained area.
It takes a slightly lighter touch to operate, such as with scrolling. And the right-clicking took me a little getting used to. At MSRP $80, it is definitely still in the "new novelty-overpriced range," which of course is standard these days. I'd expect that to drop soon. But as a traveler, it was still worth it.
