Digital camera reviews of Apple Bluetooth Wireless Mighty Mouse
Digital camera Review: Great if you don't mind cleaning the scroll ball frequently.
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved my wired Mighty Mouse until the scroll ball just wouldn't work any longer. And I love the Bluetooth version, but I do have to clean the scroll ball about every week or two. I just flip it upside down and roll it with a rubbing-alcohol-induced towel. I'm sure at some point it'll eventually give up entirely, like the old one, but I love the action, weight, etc. It gets heavy, daily use.Digital camera Review: Great little Mouse Friend
Summary: 5 Stars
We love it! It functions beautifully, arrived without problem, and we learn something new to play with it every day!Digital camera Review: Great mouse - I love you
Summary: 5 Stars
The BlueTooth Mighty Mouse is a WONDERFUL improvement over the original Mighty Mouse and clearly, the best bluetooth mouse available for Mac.Digital camera Review: Great mouse with caveats
Summary: 4 Stars
Well there are lots of things to like about this mouse. Easy bluetooth connectivity, great looks. The negatives are that it is not that comfortable for large hands and the software is minimal. Try using some software called "Steer mouse" for much greater control over every aspect of the mighty mouse. Hopefully Apple is listening and will improve the software so you don't have to buy third party software to get the best use. The side bttons are poorly placed and hard to operate although not as bad as some people say.Digital camera Review: Great mouse with two flaws.
Summary: 4 Stars
At first I really didn't care for this mouse, but it just takes getting used to. At first I thought the pressure detector was defective because half of my right clicks were interpreted as left clicks. Then I figured out that it works perfectly when you take your index finger off the "left button" before you right click. Annoying at first, but I quickly became used to it so that it is fine to me now. No worries about that anymore. But, there are two flaws:
1. The mouse has been designed so that the top shelf itself is just one button, hence the need for pressure sensors to detect right and middle clicks. However, this makes it rather difficult to click and drag in tight spaces when you have to lift the mouse and keep the button clicked down. If you do need to lift the mouse and keep a button clicked, you have to have your thumb on the left squeeze button and your ring or pinky finger on the right squeeze button. Then you have to click, squeeze, and lift. This is a little annoying and could have been prevented by using LESS technology (look at any cheep mouse with two dedicated click buttons).
2. The design of the mouse makes it very difficult/impossible to clean underneath the scroll button. There are MANY reports on apple's store website (in the might mouse reviews) of the scroll button going out within months. For a seventy dollar mouse, this is ridiculous. If you live in a dusty place (dorm room for example), think twice about this mouse. However, the one-year warranty should allow you to get another mouse if the scroll button does crap out.
Despite those two flaws, I really love this mouse and would buy another one if it broke down after the warranty expired. After about two hours, it felt perfectly natural in my hand. And I am glad that it is easy to turn the mouse off (simply slide a cover over the laser sensor) to conserve battery power and protect the sensor at the same time.
