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 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,

Mouse is sleek for travel or storage, simple to connect and operate and is best for personal use. It could be used for business purposes if you don't require extensive use of the mouse. My wife has loved her for many years; I replaced my old mouse with it and have been equally pleased.
I would recommend this to a friend

This is an awesome mouse. Very ergonomic, and when not using it, just flatten in and put in your backpack.

A good ultra portable mouse. Easy to pack because it extends flat for travel but snaps to a curve for use that's surprisingly comfortable. has a really cool feature that turns off the mouse when flat in travel mode and automatically turns on when snapped into its curve. Uses one AAA battery and connects via Bluetooth so no need to keep track of a USB adapter. was definitely worth it for the last 3 trips since i bought it.

I have used a Microsoft Arc mouse for many years. My old one was still working well but from heavy use had developed grooves where my finger slid on the surface, so I purchased a new one. The batteries last a very long time and the mouse is powered up when in the arced position - when flat it’s unpowered and easy to store for transport. Using finger contact pressure this mouse provides two buttons and a vertical scroll feature.

I have used a lot of different mice over my life. This is one of the best ones. It fits the hand well; it has an interesting design (when you lay it flat, it turns off; when you pinch it to get the mouse shape, it turns on); it is a snap to pair on a Windows machine. It also works well with Surface pro x. What else can you ask for (as long as you remember that this is a work mouse, not a gaming mouse - if you want a gaming mouse, then get a razer).

I'm a die-hard non-Mac user, but for a short work assignment I was forced to use a Mac, which was an awful experience, EXCEPT for my first experience using Apple's Magic Mouse, which was an incredible mouse. When I returned to using a PC, I tried my Apple Magic Mouse, but even with compatibility drivers and software, it didn't function the same, so I started looking around for a PC-comparable device and found the Microsoft Surface Arc. Oh my gosh, do I love this thing! I use one at home, and I have a travel one in my computer bag as well (even though I could just toss my home one in the computer bag I guess).

I often have to grab my laptop and mouse for meetings out of the office. My normal mouse is quite bulky in a jacket pocket or laptop bag. I wanted something I could keep in my laptop bag all the time that was flat and easily transportable. I saw a coworker used one of these, so I decided to try it. It's wireless and connects seamlessly when I bend it. Flattening it turns it off to save battery life. Very pleased with it.

I loved this mouse for it's foldable design. Great for traveling, always worked when activated, worked well on most surfaces. My only issue was the scrolling. Without a wheel it relied on touch and honestly I found it to be inconsistent. Ultimately I ended up going with the Surface mobile mouse since it has a low profile and a scrolling wheel. If Microsoft figures out the wheeless scrolling the Arc mouse would be a home run.

Love it. Never considered it due to price and you can get the other surface mouse that has direct connect Bluetooth (no dongle) but does not transform like Optimus Prime. I saw my dad had an older version and saw/understood the advantages of the Optimus Prime option...which is collapsing, in a sense, to become so slime and compact that it takes up minimal room in my bags and fits in all my bags in multiple different locations/pockets that a regular, even slim-“ish”, style mouse would not or would get damage possibly.
If you are looking for an on the go mouse for your surface or any other compatible devices with this mouse, then I highly recommend purchasing even with the additional cost.
If you are looking for a mouse that won’t leave your desk, then personal decision will have to be used for decision making...still buy it, as you never know when you’ll need to bug out and you won’t have an Optimus Prime Transforming mouse rather a bulky, inconvenient, pain in the rear to pack and go mouse.

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.

Absolutely love this mouse. Great for traveling when you’re trying to reduce bulk. If I had one critique, it would be that I wish it wasn’t battery powered, but I understand even that because it means you don’t have to rely on it holding a charge. Got this and the OriMouse and MUCH PREFER THIS.

this mouse always connects and has a good range if you are using it with a projection/tv screen. the lay flat design when not in use makes it perfect for travelling as it is not at all bulky and very compact.

This is hands down the best mouse I have ever owned, after less than month I purchased a 2nd Arc for my laptop [the 1st was for use w/a Microsoft Surface Pro 2017]. What makes it the best...?
1) Stores easily & FLAT
2) Ergonomic & Comfortable - I have carpal tunnel and this mouse has def helped take some of the strain off my arms [the shape really makes a difference].
3) Battery life is great, I use it daily throughout the day and still am on the original batteries.
4) Works on ALMOST EVERY surface. I've used It on a desk, leather center console in the car, denim pant legs, at a bar, and more, with no real issues anywhere.
5) The SCROLLING function, not only Up/Down but Left/Right as well, works very smoothly.
6) Connects via Bluetooth so no need for the USB receiver taking up the available ports.
