I’ll assume that the first thing you want answered is the first thing I asked myself. Just how big is this mouse? The product photos give you little idea, so I’ve posted one of my own with a couple of other mice that came to hand and a credit card. To answer the question, it is pretty big for a Bluetooth mouse, which you can take any way you want. I’ve wanted a larger Bluetooth mouse for a while since I have some tiny ones that just give me hand cramps if used for long periods. Smaller mice do go into a bag almost unnoticed, so up to you to set your priorities.Pairing it to my PCs was straightforward and so far it has worked on all the surfaces I’ve found myself on. I don’t find the tracking very precise,however, with slow, small movements resulting in the pointer “walking up or down stairs”, rather than moving in a smooth line. Fine if you’re surfing the net or editing a text document etc., but not great for trying to draw things or play precision games.The scroll wheel has a nice ratchet feel without having undue resistance, and all three buttons click with good feedback. The mouse is symmetrical so adapts to both righties and lefties and is comfortable and pleasant to hold.I have experienced some pretty major lag using the mouse. After verification with other Bluetooth mice this seems to be an endemic problem with Bluetooth – if your PC is busy, your mouse gets laggy. I don’t remember seeing it the much before, but maybe I’m just doing more processor intensive stuff right now. Bluetooth still has the advantage of leaving all of your USB ports free (not negligible for a MacBook Pro).I think this is a decent mouse for the price. I like the fact it has a decent size for a Bluetooth mouse, it is light and only takes an AA battery. It is missing some features from higher priced products, like better precision or being able to pair to two different devices, but these are not deal breakers at the price point.

I was asked if I’d like to review the Kensington ProFit Mouse - Mid-Sized 5-Button Optical Wired Mouse with Ergonomic, Right-Handed Shape and Plug & Play Connection - Compatible with Windows & MacOS - Designed for Business Professionals - Black (K72369EU), and I said yes.For the last couple of years I’ve been using a Kensington Mouse-in-a-Box Wired Optical USB Desktop Mouse, the original was sent Vine, and when that gave over working I bought another, and now that’s on it’s last legs due to me dropping it a number of times. Therefore, when I got the opportunity to review this I was really pleased.This arrives in a well-designed box that keeps the mouse safe and secure.:-)This mouse can be used with both Windows and Mac Computers. The manual is online and you get a 3 year limited warranty with this mouse.The first thing I noticed about this mouse when it arrived was that it’s a lot bigger then my other Kensington mouse. It does feel odd as I have small hands, so I’ve to stretch my hand, (oops the warehouse has sent me the full-size and not the mid-size), no wonder it feels huge.This mouse is wired, (which I’d much rather have), so all you do is place the cable into the USB socket and away you go, there’s no messing about with loading software, (thankfully).Besides this mouse having an ergonomic design, it has a high definition optical sensor, so you get nice and smooth tracking.You’ll find this mouse has sculpted side panels with soft rubber texture and contoured buttons.The scroll wheel moves with the greatest of ease and button underneath the scroll wheel alters its speed of your scrolling. Both the right and left click are easy to use as are the buttons on the left hand side of the mouse, which control being able to move your web browser both forward and backwards.It’s a nice mouse and I can recommend it.

This Kensington Pro-Fit Bluetooth Wireless Mouse comes in a plastic bubble pack mounted on a wedge shaped card box and in the package you get the mouse, a single AA battery and installation guide. My first disappointment was that there isn't a pouch provided or, perhaps, the intention is you'll keep this in your laptop case. Battery installation is simple and the device comes with a 3 year warranty.Installation was easy on my Toshiba Windows 8.1 Notebook and the mouse was quickly found and installed under Bluetooth with Microsoft drivers. The physical design of the mouse is smaller than most wired versions in the sense that the footprint is smaller. However,given that the mouse is billed as being "slim for use with portable devices" it isn't especially so in comparison with a similarly specced and priced HP portable mouse I recently used. I had thought the mouse would be a lot flatter than it is.There are no buttons as such on the device, the left and right mouse buttons are in effect part of the casing - you simply press down on it - this works fine and it's obvious that underneath there's a micro switch as there's an affirmative click. The scroll wheel action is effective too with a light click feature. The design of the mouse is symmetrical so it should be equally suitable for left or right handed use especially as you can configure the buttons in the standard MS driver software which is installed.One annoying feature is that the mouse seems to go to sleep after a while and I'm not sure how to turn this feature off - I got caught out in a presentation the other day. Apart from that feature the mouse is as precise and fast as any I've used.In summary, this a competent mouse with one or two shortcomings - the design could be slimmer and the sleep feature is annoying, otherwise it's precise and very usable.

I got this mouse for my Linx 8 Windows tablet, hoping that it would fit neatly into the tablet case for use on those times when I needed a bit more precision clicking than my fat fingers normally allow. (With this and a bluetooth keyboard, the tablet becomes a fully functional laptop).It does the job rather well. As a mouse, it’s good. It’s movement detection is accurate, the button clicks are clean and easy, the scroll wheel is well weighted. The clicks are a little bit louder than I’m used to, but not annoyingly so.Connecting it to the tablet was as easy as it could have been. It was automatically detected as a bluetooth device and, once connected, started working straight away. Strangely,when I first connected the mouse to my tablet, Windows left the “installing mouse drivers” window up for a surprisingly long time. While it was still installing the drivers though, the mouse had already begun to work perfectly… one of those little quirks…It runs on a single AA battery, and there’s one provided (plus points for that), not only that but it’s a good Energizer battery provided as well (another plus).It’s much smaller than my desktop mouse. If I had just one quibble, it’s that I still think it could be a little bit smaller still- specifically it could be flatter. I’ve got a thin tablet and a very thin bluetooth keyboard in the case, so as it is, this mouse still stands out as a round bump in the tablet case. If I were designing it I’d have tried for something a little bit more pancaked. Especially when the product says “for ultra-thin devices”, I still think this mouse could have been just a tiny bit *more* ultra-thin than it is. It’s a minor detail though.Overall this is a high quality, well-built, works-first-time mouse that will make a fine addition to your laptop or tablet bag.

I've generally only ever used Microsoft mice and keyboards, but with my old laptop mouse starting to glitch I thought it would be a good time to try an alternative brand, hence this Kensington mouse.The first thing I noticed when getting it out of the box it is how light it is. This is mostly a good thing as it does make the mouse feel very easy to hold and move. However, it does feel quite hollow, and perhaps cheaply made. I guess this is probably just down to personal preference.I don't have particularly big hands, but this mouse is definitely on the small side. For a laptop mouse this is perfect, but personally I would prefer something a little bigger for a desktop mouse.It's still quite comfortable either way.Unlike a lot of older 'wireless' mice, this is actually a Bluetooth mouse. The difference is that this doesn't require its own USB dongle, and will simply connect directly through Bluetooth. Even though all my computers have Bluetooth, I used to find it annoying that I'd still need to take up a free USB slot on each device simply to use a wireless keyboard/mouse. With this Kensington mouse, it has its own built-in Bluetooth transmitter so it will connect directly to your computer, providing you have Bluetooth support (if not you could always buy a Bluetooth dongle I guess). What I found really cool is that I didn't even have to pair it - it just connected right to my laptop (running Windows 8.1) after a few seconds of booting up.So far, I've been really pleased with this mouse. Aside from it being a little small and light for my taste, the only real improvement I can think of would be to add side buttons - I'm so used to using these that it's a bit of a hindrance not having them. It's not a deal breaker though, and many people don't use them anyway.

I have been using this mouse with my iMac and it has performed faultlessly. The instructions are incredibly basic, but if you have ever paired a bluetooth device before then you really don't need to read the instructions anyway.My 'standard' wired mouse measures approximately 115 x 60 x 40 mm ... the Kensington is quite diminutive at 90 x 55 x 30. There are no distinct buttons, rather the top of the mouse deforms slightly under finger pressure; the left and right click works beautifully. The scroll wheel works equally well; on my Mac (using Chrome), a click with the scroll wheel opens the link in a new tab.I have tried the mouse using a rechargeable battery and it works fine (a standard AA battery is supplied).The on / off switch is rather stiff to use, but I tend to leave the mouse switched on anyway. Battery life has (so far) been fine, but as mentioned it'll run on a rechargeable so I really don't mind.What do I like? Well its small size and the fact it leaves a USB port free on my computer. It tracks happily on a variety of surfaces (a desk with heavy wood grain) and pairing is a doddle (of course one will need a computer with built in bluetooth (or an add-on dongle)).Anything not to like? When I first took the mouse out of its box, something was rattling inside the mouse; after a decent shake a cruciform shaped piece of injection moulded plastic fell out and I fully expected the mouse not to work; it did work and it still does so I can only assume that the piece accidentally found its way into the mouse during production.The most difficult thing about the mouse is the ridiculous wedge-shaped packaging with a vacuum formed blister.So there we are; a great little mouse that's easy to use and it is supplied with a three year warranty. I like it; a lot!

The Kensington Mouse·in·a·Box is a full size mouse and is for USB.My last mouse was an optical but worked with batteries and that run pretty expensive at times,(when I was using it a lot), so I decided when my that mouse stopped working I was going back to cable. So I was really pleased when I was to be asked if I’d try this. :-)I have Windows 8.1 and all I had to do with the Kensington Mouse·in·a·Box was plug it in and it worked straight away.It’s extremely light and works with both PCs and Macs.The cable length on my Kensington mouse is roughly 70.9 inches, (180cm’s) long, (which is a great length for me).Has an optical sensor which gives you excellent control plus with this you have no cleaning,(like the old mice I’ve used in the past where I’ve had to clean that ball that allows it to roll).I’ve found the scroll wheel to be a lot faster than my previous optical mouse which has been great especially when I do speed reading.Have found both right and left button easy to press down and both reacted quickly.I thought I’d test the mouse to see what surfaces it worked on, so I tried it on :- my mouse mat, a plastic CD and DVD case, a book cover, my wooden unit top, paper, a mirror and it even works on a cotton duvet cover. It’s honestly the best mouse I’ve had for working on lots of different and odd surfaces. :-)I love the design as I found it so comfortable to use, plus with this design it’s a contoured ambidextrous shape so that allows everyone to use it, (no longer do you have to look for a left handed mouse).It also comes with a 5 year Limited Warranty.I’m extremely impressed with the make and personally I can’t fault this mouse at all. I’d highly recommend it to anyone that’s looking for a new computer mouse. :-)

I stopped using wireless mice about a year after first trying one - in that approximately 12 months I had used 4 and all 4 failed.The experience of a variety of failures put me off using wireless mice for good – the failures include everything from intermittent loss of connection to the indicator jumping around on the screen, the indicator running across the screen and jamming in a position off screen where it couldn’t be recovered from, I would have it positioned to click in one place and it would click somewhere else but the icon was still where it should be, and so on.I normally use mice that are quite small because large ones are too big for my hands and using them makes the pain from mydegenerative bone disease worse – this is probably due to the hovering of my hand and wrist as well as the spread of my fingers.This mouse is larger than my old wireless ones that I had and it still requires an amount of stretch and hand hovering.It is a plug and play mouse, I was not required to download anything, and using the mouse was automatic – the instant I plugged it in it was completely useable.There is an audible and physical click when the left and right buttons are clicked. This also happens with the wheel.Scrolling with the wheel turn is the same as usual, but when I tried scrolling by clicking the wheel and pulling back on the mouse and I found that the wheel lock doesn’t hold about half the time (it can take 2 or 3 attempts before the lock will appear to hold, but even then it can fail, without any physical intervention).I do a lot of slow scrolling when I am looking for certain information so it is important that the wheel lock works.This is a good utility wired mouse but not without problems.

This mouse is perfect for people who hate tiny mice or even mid sized mice. Kensington do make a mid size version of this mouse, however after initially ordering that version i found it was tiny even compared to the basic Microsoft mouse i was using. I strongly recommend that if you have average to large sized hands you consider this mouse.Some important figures for you, the dimensions roughly are:Length: 12cmWidth 8cmmax height 4cmcable length 2 metresthese figures are totally different to Amazon's but i have measure this with a rulerIt is very comfy to use the large hump gives good support to your hand and the majority of the buttons are within comfortable reach. the back browser button can be a bit tricky to get to,you can either press it with the inside of your thumb or arch your thumb back and press it with the tip of your thumb. eventually you will get a comfortable arrangement for that. the Mouse has 5 typical buttons the scroll wheel is a soft feel rubber and turns with nice soft notches and acts as a 3rd button, as previously mentioned there are forward and back buttons on the side for use with your thumb. there is a 6th button that is in the centre of the mouse for you to cycle through the DPI settings that run from 600-1200-1800-2400 DPI i noticed that 1200 is very sensitive to me but i don't use much precision mouse work. would it be any good for a gamer? possibly depends what DPI your after.Compared to other optical mice i have had it is slightly heavier but i don't mind that. The most important thing to me was how big and how comfy it was and in these areas it excels. I don't care what sound the buttons make or what colour the lighting is.

If you find a smaller mouse (most are quite small these days) gives you cramps or just makes your hands ache, then this might definitely help. I posted a review for the wireless mid sized version -https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008M11WG0 - just now and the same photo will work for both, you can see them side by side, there's quite a notable size difference. For me, the large size is much better, as I noted on the other review I think they probably fit well with glove sizes so if you use an L in marigolds you probably ought to choose an L in mice.I also noted in the other review that I prefer the wireless version of this mouse for the simple fact it has no cable, especially if it's for a laptop,but generally I'm not a fan of cables on mice, they almost always end up getting in the way.However, otherwise it's functionally identical to the wireless version down to the way the buttons work, with the same DPI setting (it rotates between three DPI settings when you press the button) and the side buttons. Everything is perfectly fine with the mouse.I did note the buttons are quite loud compared with the "wireless mouse for life" which hopefully should link here https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B018VNTLFM which has silent buttons, so that one's currently my favourite but it's not ergonomically shaped.Overall having tried and reviewed three of these kensington mice, they're all good, it's a personal choice. I'd probably go with the quiet button "valumouse" for travel and the wireless version of this "profit" (hah, funny name) for home use, that would be my choice.

As somebody who has to use a laptop a bit, but not a lot, for travelling, but who just can’t seem to get along with trackpads and the horrible feel and lumpy performance of them, a mouse like this is ideal. Size-wise it’s bigger than some travel mice I’ve seen, but smaller than a regular desktop mouse, but it fits well enough in the hand and feels close enough to a ‘proper’ mouse to be comfortable to somebody who’s racked up many hours on normal-sized mice.The retractable USB cable is a good idea for anyone who’ll be carrying this around in a laptop bag. It’s neater and quicker than trying to wrap up or tidy up a mouse cable, and although in real terms it probably only saves you a few seconds,it feels professional and smart- and looks quite good in a showy way if you retract it once you’ve finished your work presentation! Like other Kensington peripherals it’s got that smart and simple matt black look that pretty much epitomises what ‘proper office IT’ is expected to look like. In the current product photo the Kensington logo is really catching the light and looks bright blue, but on the one I got it’s more muted, which I prefer.It’s quite a middle-of-the-road mouse in many ways, mostly unremarkable, but if you’ve ever found yourself getting frustrated about trailing around a USB mouse in your bag, getting it caught or tangled up in the power lead and so on, then you’ll find this very satisfying. And even if you haven’t, there’s nothing wrong with this mouse anyway.

This is a basic but well-designed mouse ideal for travel or as a backup. It is supplied in a branded box with bubble packaging displaying the product so that you can see what you are buying. The box contains; the mouse, a USB dongle, a single AA battery to power it and a 5-year guarantee which is reassuring.As the name implies the Kensington ValuMouse is as basic a wireless mouse that you can get these days with two action buttons and a scroll wheel which also works as a third button but I find the extra buttons usually supplied are rarely used anyway and is suitable for left and right-handed use. It offers a reasonably sensitive 1000 dpi resolution that is fixed and tracked reliably during my tests.It is controlled by a small USB 2,4GHZ transmitter that connects to your PC or Mac.This worked first time without additional drivers on my Windows 10 PC and stores neatly in the base of the mouse when not in use. The mouse also has an on/off switch so that it can be turned off when travelling and feels comfortable to hold while still being compact and lightweight.A good feature is the buttons while being positive are quiet and non-clicky. This makes the mouse suitable for an open plan office or being used on a train. It can be surprising how annoying a madly clicking mouse can be as I have experienced this while travelling.Overall this is a well designed and useful mouse. While it is not cheap it offers a good guarantee and is well made and designed.

This is a smart, serious, professional mouse with no fuss and almost no frills. It’s elegant, and with its black finish and relatively modest branding, it looks business-like and just a little bit posh. The textured sections work well and for a right-hander it’s a really comfortable but unremarkable fit.And it works exactly as you’d expect it to. I tried it on both a Windows 10 machine and MacOS machine and both machines were near-instant plug-and-play performance, with the on-mouse speed change control working fine in both cases, so no issues there.One of the other reviewers has complained about the scroll wheel, but I can’t see the problem- I don’t find it jerky,I think it’s nicely intuitive and scrolls up and down browser windows in that you-get-so-used-to-it-that-you-stop-thinking-about-it way.Looking for a PS2 mouse? The mouse I was sent was USB only, and the product description only mentions USB, but the photos currently show the same mouse but in slightly different packaging that says “USB/PS2” on it. If you need a PS2 mouse (what is this, 1997?) then you will need a special adapter if you get the same product I received, as this is not natively PS2.There are hundreds of different mice available on this site and for twenty quid you can get some very flashy ones with various features- either useful ones or novelty ones- but Kensington have stuck to a business-like quality purpose here and done a nice job on it that’s really hard to fault.

Full size mouse (none of your pocket sized rubbish that gives you RSI after a few hours use) 115mm long x 35mm high and 57mm at the widest point, has a good weight to it and is sensually curvy, it feels great in the hand ! Nice light, delicate button clicks that are really quiet and an absolute pleasure to use and the scroll wheel is also light and sensitive too, I have seen other scroll wheels described as 'agricultural' this is much more refined than those ! Even the cable is nice, it's soft and flexible and does not retain it's coiled up bends.The only thing that I would have liked to be slightly different is the scroll wheel has small notches in it,I would have preferred it to be smooth but that's just a personal preference and does not affect the overall comfort at all.Mice are a very personal item, especially if you use it for long periods of time, it has to feel right. This is the second one I bought this week, I hate the first one but didn't realise it was small until I took it out of the box (didn't get it from Amazon so that was my main mistake as there was no reviews to go on), I tried it for a day and it gave me RSI so immediately bought this one and it is far superior in every way and cheaper too !Good quality, full size with delicate buttons and scroll wheel, nice quiet clicks, non tangling lead and feels great in the hand !Plus, one of the quickest deliveries ever ! Very pleased with this purchase !

I usually go for a wireless mouse. However, this wired mouse has a very thin and long (24") retractable wire, (it works in a similar way to a cylinder vacuum cable) and it really is no trouble at all compared with the rotten old cables of the old days.Kensington is a quality name in mice and trackballs. This one is plug and play.It has a nice smooth hand feel. So many mice called economic have fancy bumps and ridges which always end up painful for me. Not with this one. Although I have only been using it for a week. But it has been all week. And, yes, I do suffer from RSI. I'm a right-hander, I can't speak for left-hand use but the design appears symmetrical.You can't beat a smooth,almost peanut-shaped mouse. It's small--around 9 1/2 by 5 1/2 by 3 cm--but that is a plus point for me because it is portable and fits my hand nicely. My wife also gets on well with this size-wise.You have the left and right mouse buttons as usual and the central scrolling wheel – I can't manage without a scrolling wheel--and you can depress the scrolling wheel for a third programmable function if you use shareware such as X-Mouse.When I looked for the website to check out the 'Kensington promise': Warranty Kensington dot com. I got an error message,and even on the Kensington site, a search for 'warranty' yielded nothing of help about how to 'register' the product or access the 'lifetime' warranty.
