Comments about Gigaware Gigaware® Wireless Laser Mouse with Ultra-Compact Dongle:

Received as a gift. Started working great for the first week and now it jumps all over the screen. For all the editing I do, trying to stop in between letters, this is a show-stopper. Still not sure what the consequence will be.

Comments about Gigaware Gigaware® Wireless Laser Mouse with Ultra-Compact Dongle:

This mouse is perfect. The design is comfortable, and it's very smooth. Can be used on most surfaces. I'm currently using it on a white surface, one that my old mouse was just terrible on.

What's also great is that although it has a tiny USB receiver, the mouse is still accurate and doesn't jump around the screen from far distances.

And NO, the 2.4 ghz will NOT interfere with your wireless connection.

Comments about Gigaware Gigaware® Wireless Laser Mouse with Ultra-Compact Dongle:

A family member was looking for a new wireless mouse; she has broken her last one when she knocked into the USB dongle. That said, a priority was finding a mouse with a compact USB receiver.

This very feature is the shining highlight of this mouse. It has a compact USB receiver that only protrudes a few centimeters out. Incidentally, it also fits nicely into the underside battery compartment for on-the-go travel.

I own various Logitech mice, including the Logitech VX Nano, which was to first to pioneer the miniature USB receiver, and it is remarkable how similar the Gigaware mouse is to the Logitech--the receiver is about the same size, the Gigaware features similar rubber accents and dimpling, a similar overall curved shape and design, and also features a nearly identical travel pouch/case. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same factory in China, slightly retooled, that made both products.

The primary difference is that the Logitech VX Nano is Logitech's flagship notebook model and has more buttons, and the unique Logitech free-spin wheel feature. Additionally, the build quality and construction on the Logitech is much better. On the Gigaware, the plastic is a little thinner, creakier, and glossy; thus the one negative for middle-of-the-road build quality. That said, the Gigaware is still a finely constructed mouse, and gets the job done.

There was a great deal on this mouse for Black Friday, and so I'm quite happy with the purchase for my family member.
