Kensington Ci60 Optical Wireless Mouse

Along with the Notebook Expansion Dock , I gave Kensington ’s in vogue wireless optical mouse a mental testing run . This shiner ocular black eye operate off of two AA batteries and communicates with a dongle - sized USB arranger . It has five buttons and a scroll roulette wheel .

Surprisingly it had a quick reply time , even wirelessly . Kensington said this is due to the QuickRF wireless technology . During my tryout it had a wireless range of 4 - 6 foot , which is pretty unfortunate . But the QuickRF technology kept the shiner responding cursorily all the direction until it kick the bucket out of range and stop completely .

Also included in this computer mouse is “ Diamond Eye Precision ” technology . I ’m not certain really what that means , but I guess I did n’t do enough intense mousing to note it . Preceision and truth was moderately average or below norm . Maybe I was just not used to the quick RF response and “ over - sneak ” my target .

The shiner fit the helping hand nicely and has indulgent honeycomb - style grips on the sides . The five buttons are programmable via Kensington ’s MouseWorks software . Overall the mouse was a mo to jackanapes for my likings , but that predilection just calculate on the mortal . This mouse retails for $ 30 , which is n’t too regretful for a decent wireless computer mouse .

Verdict : It ’s aight . Good wireless response time , but would care to see expert range .
