    A great mouse until it fails to stay connected or track on your computer. Stopped working exactly 1 day after return window. Horrible waste of money. Just buy something at a higher price point that’s actually dependable.

    I guess I got a defective one? It does not track -pointer would briefly move a 1/8" and then never- despite different laptops, pads. The buttons worked, so it was not a connection issue.

    I will never buy a Bluetooth mouse again. I have had trouble with this since day one. I finally threw it in the trash. Worked when it wanted to, and I think slower than a regular mouse.

      I'm sorry to hear that you experienced an issue with your product not powering on out of the box. It's always frustrating when a new product doesn't work as expected, especially after investing in it. In this situation, spending more may not necessarily guarantee a faulty-free product, as defects can happen with any purchase. I recommend reaching out to the manufacturer or retailer for assistance in resolving this issue. Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we hope you have a positive experience with your future purchases.
