Easy to use, not great for travel
I was hoping this mouse would be the solution to work travel- I travel with my laptop often but hate using the trackpad. It does work great and is easy to use HOWEVER.. I found that I had to use a mouse pad and it’s pretty heavy which doesn’t make it ideal for throwing in my work bag.

Not Good
I bought this at a CVS near me and it was working just fine for several weeks and now it won't turn on. I changed the batteries and tried restarting my laptop but it still won't respond.

This is the mouse I keep in my laptop bag for travel. I like the fact that the mouse automatically turns on and off depending on whether the USB dongle is attached to the bottom (via magnet) or not. It is fairly comfortable but a little too small in my normal sized hand. It is always quick to connect.

Nice Mouse
The package was very difficult to open. I thought I was getting a bluetooth wireless mouse. That was my fault, I didn’t read the description well enough. It is wireless, it just has the USB receiver that is plugged into the computer. That being said, it is the best wireless mouse I have ever used. It tracks so well on most surfaces. (I haven’t tried all surfaces yet, but it did amazing on the ones I have.) I like the feature of the automatic power saving mode after it hasn’t been used for awhile. I like the feature ( it’s in most USB wireless “mice”) that the USB receiver can be stored inside the mouse. The mouse is truly plug and play. (I have a Mac.) I would recommend this Targus Blue Trace Wireless Mouse.

Great for every day use
I got this for my teen son to use with his laptop for college. He is able to pack it in his bookbag and so far, so good! It seems pretty durable (teens aren't always careful with their backpacks. He has not had to replace the battery yet, so the battery life is pretty long. It also hooks automatically to the laptop and no juggling programs, etc. It's easy to adjust the sensitivity and moves smoothly across the screen.

Perfect gift
My son was so thrilled to receive this mouse. It is the perfect size for him as well. It works great! Very easy to use and the buttons are very smooth. We bought rechargeable batteries for it but so far the battery is lasting longer than I had expected it to.

Great mouse!
This is a wireless mouse which is all you should consider. It is a full sized mouse which gives you great accurate control as you maneuver it. It is comfortable and ergonomically designed so you don’t put stress on your wrist or aggravate CTS. The select buttons have just the right amount of form touch so you don’t accidentally click them. Great mouse!

Easy and Smooth
No complaints! This mouse is a breeze to install and works smooth with no flaws. Fits my hand well and is comfortable to use. Had an off/on switch to save battery but will also go into sleep mode after awhile.
The battery it came with didn’t work but that was an easy fix.

Perfect travel mouse
This is a really nice light weight mouse that I keep in my travel computer bag. The USB dongle fits neatly inside of the mouse and keeps things clean. Feel in the hand is nice and accuracy is good. Great product that has done great after many trips in the travel bag.

Great job
I drop my mouse at least twice a day. This one is holding up very well, in comparison to the other mouses I've purchased. It doesn't fall apart or depress the clickers on the mouse when I drop it! I'm hopeful this will last longer!

Simple Mouse
This wireless BlueTrace mouse is good for use on the go. I bring this mouse with me to school and use it with my laptop. Connection is seamless and it gets the job done. This mouse is quite tall. I'm used to using flat mice but this mouse has a bulky hand-feel. Other than the height, buttons feel good and it works as intended.

Portable and easy to use
This is a great portable wireless mouse from the great brand Targus.
This is great mouse with some great features. The most important is portability.
The mouse is small, with an on and off button, just 1 AA battery and an internal pocket for the USB receiver (that always get lost or damaged. Great to have it with a laptop and bagpak.
I have one laptop only for traveling and I used to keep a wired mouse with it because the wireless mouse always ran out of power or the USB receiver get lost.
But now this wireless mouse really solve my mouse problem.
The design is compact, ergonomic, easy to install and Modern.
I will not recommend it for everyday use because after several hours your hand get tire because it does not provide full support due to the small size of it.
But it is perfect for traveling or for a laptop that does not have daily usage.

Effortless Navigation with THIS ONE!
I love my new Targus® Wireless Optical Mouse. It’s so easy to slide across any work surface, for effortless, quick navigation through documents or online. The scroll wheel is so smooth and glides beautifully, and the cursor has no jerky or inconsistent movements. This was the perfect gear to clear my desk of clutter by getting rid of a nuisance mouse cord. I also love the silky-smooth tactical feel of this mouse, the comfortable sculpted design, and its black patent glossy sheen. 5 stars for the many attributes of this excellent, productivity enhancing device!

Love this great product from Targus! The wireless mouse was super easy to connect to our laptop. The tracking works perfectly and the ergonomics match up great with my hand. Clicking is nice and quiet so as to not distract others around me. Definitely built to last with top quality construction. I would highly recommend this to all.

Great wireless mouse
I have finally found a wireless mouse that is smooth moving and sleep design. I really like how the mouse is not overly big or small. It moves over any surface that I've used smoothly (couch arm, granite table, my jeans, wooden coffee table, bed cover). I like the wireless mouse came with a battery, so I didn't have to put one of my own in it. Its' really easy to put in the usb in the computer and just leave it there so I don't have to worry about taking it out and putting back in. I really like that the usb is small and doesn't stick out the computer usb port. Overall, I really like it with my new computer (Hp Ryzen 7).

Great Wireless Mouse
We got this a couple weeks ago and my daughter loves it. She uses it with her chromebook at school. Very easy to connect. Comes with a wireless adapter that you simply plug into the side of the computer. When you're not using the mouse you just disconnect the adapter and store it in the little compartment in the mouse. Definitely recommend for all ages.

Works great
This wireless mouse is a great product! I love it. The comfort of it is nice and it doesn't have any lag at all while using it. It was as easy as plugging in the wireless USB plug for the mouse and turning the mouse on to use. I like that it has an on and off feature to preserve the battery life. The mouse responds instantly while using. I had no trouble or complications with it. I recommend this!

Great mouse
This mouse has a USB receiver that you plug into your computer or laptop. The mouse itself has a handy little spot you can store the USB receiver in. This thing tracks extremely well on all surfaces I have used it on so far. Wood, carpet and tablecloths all caused no issues for the traction. If inactive for a period of time the mouse goes to sleep to conserve its battery life. What more could you really ask for. It’s a great little mouse.

Works great!
I love this mouse so far! It connected with NO issues. The button feedback is nice - not too "clicky" but enough that it's annoying. I am not really sure what the DPI button really does, I haven't noticed a difference in using it. I do wish the scroll wheel would tilt side to side to go forwards and back, but the mouse itself works good. It fits in my hand well and the USB dongle is small and doesn't stick out far from the computer, making it reasonable to leave plugged in

good travel mouse
It's a good basic no frills mouse. The dongle is small which is nice. The only problem is fewer and fewer computers are coming with USB-A ports. Nice that it has storage fr the dongle in the back, but its small enough to just leave in the computer.

Sleek Design
Nice, shiny, and easy to set up. Simply plug the USB receiver receptor to your USB port on your laptop and within a few seconds it works. Of course, you will to get install a AA battery (not included). The mouse has a sleek design and is easy to use with the right/left click or use the scroll option on the mouse itself to easily navigate through some documents or spreadsheets. Give this wireless mouse a try. Love it.

It’s been along time since I’ve needed a wireless mouse and I was pleasantly surprised at how it felt in my hand, its accuracy and how easy it was to connect to my laptop. I loved being able to store the Tiny Bluetooth receiver/dongle right within the mouse itself when I wasn’t using it.

It's a mouse and it works
This mouse is fine. It's a little bit smaller than other mouses I've been used to. The only thing I don't really love about it is that it is very clicky. The noise is quite loud when you click. I like how small the usb part that goes in the computer is, but that seems pretty standard for mouses nowaday.s

I have been plugging my mouse up for years getting tangled and wrapped in the cords. This wireless mouse is the perfect size to fit right next to my laptop and on my mousepad . The reaction speed of the mouse to the computer is great and easily picks up on the signal from

Great Wireless Mouse
I'm actually using this mouse as I write this review. The mouse was easy to set up. It was literally plug-and-play. I installed the batteries and then plugged the little usb into my computer and within seconds it was ready to go. It responds quickly to my touch but it is not over-sensitive. It has a smooth, fluid movement. It's easy to control and has great connectlivity.

Small but works great!
If you have big hands, you’ll probably want a bigger mouse. Otherwise, it’s a great wireless mouse! It’s super easy to get to work, just put the battery in and the usb dongle into the computer and off it goes! I take it with me to court and have never had any problems. If you forget to cut it off, it’ll go into a sleep mode which I guess conserves battery.

I have been using this Targus wireless mouse for a few weeks and I have no complaints. It is the perfect size. Connecting to my laptop was so easy and simple. This mouse can be used up to 33 feet away from your connected device ans holds up to that. Love this mouse, it's just what I needed.
