I was in the market for a new laptop. While comparison shopping at the Best Buy store in South Philadelphia, I found the Microsoft Surface Laptop. An employee at the store explained the Microsoft product to me. At some point, I learned about the wireless mouse. The mouse is turned on/off by folding and unfolding it. This mouse does not have a separate left and right button. The surface where fingertips rest allows users to navigate with the cursor or navigate up and down a web page by moving your fingertips in the direction you want to go. This mouse sealed the deal with me to purchase a Microsoft laptop.

Always disliked the builtin notebook mouse. Just not response of enough. This is a great alternative that folds flat and goes easily enough in shirt/cargo pants pocket.

Excellent bluetooth mouse for my Windows and Apple computers. I have had 2 black color USB mice and I decided to go gray this time.

This is truly a very nice mouse. There have been some negative reviews regarding the right-button functionality of this mouse since you have to have your left finger off the touchpad for the right click to function, but I've found that once you start using the mouse, it's really not that bad. I recommend you try it out if you can before you buy it, but regardless, it really is a pretty mouse with high quality materials worth the price.
Regarding battery life; I've been using the mouse every day for about four weeks and battery life is down to 84%, so that's around 4% per week, which would set battery life at right around 6 months. get yourself some rechargeable batteries at BestBuy and then battery won't be a problem ever again. which btw. I'm happy that it doesn't have an internal battery, it's just one less thing that could break in the mouse.
Regarding gaming, for a casual player this one has been working great. I don't really play first-person shooters, so I won't be able to tell you how this mouse performs with those games, but I've been playing stuff like league of legends perfectly without any problems.
There are some other great functions of this mouse like the horizontal scrolling, and the fact that it snaps flat for better carrying ability. Also, I recommend you download Microsoft mouse and keyboard center which will allow you to customize sensitivity and button functions.
All in all, if you're looking for a premium mouse good enough for many things, this little one is great

I have been using the Microsoft Arc mouse for many years. I find it comfortable to use. I have carpal tunnel and type all day, every day in my job. I have no pain in my wrist or thumb by using this mouse. I also am able to carry it easily by simply tossing in my laptop bag. Additionally, the battery lasts forever!

The arch of this mouse is deceptive. it's not meant for your hand.
My favorite thing about this mouse is its scroll functionality. It's super easy to scroll vertically and horizontally, navigating websites and documents.
The clicks are manageable if you click on the corners. Otherwise, they're too heavy.
Initially, I thought it was too uncomfortable for sustained use. It's wider at the palm than the chunky Logitech MX Master Mouse series. However once I opened up an Excel file and began to tinker, I found myself using a paw/pencil grip-- My palm didn't rest on the arch at all.
Grip: I held the mouse between my thumb and third finger, and kept it steady with my middle finger on the right click. My pinky finger actually rested underneath the mouse, and the third finger was comfortable along its under-slant.
It's like ignoring the mouse and pointing with your index finger.
I tried this mouse in both Excel and Sketchup (quick 3D modeling environment). It's great, but misses the middle click. Not too big of a deal in Sketchup since there's an easily accessible tool that does the same thing.
This mouse is meant to supplement a keyboard. You should only be touching the mouse when you have something to accomplish, and to that end the mouse works well. However, the lack of extra sides buttons means that this shouldn't be your casual or everyday mouse if you're not already a wiz at the keyboard.
It's like Batman. Effective in a pinch, but who really wants to hang out with Batman?
Expensive and limited features but great if you ar

Expensive and limited features but great if you are on the go. Folds flat and stores nicely in a computer bag. Like the original Surface Arc Mouse a little more but this one works almost as well.

It's a bit weird to use in comparison to Logitech mouses. In my opinion, it's a great and convenient mouse for road trips and small space in bags, pocket etc. It's not worth $89
