CNET editors' buying advice
We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Mice. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of mouse.
Mouse interface
Connecting a peripheral to your system requires matching interfaces. As new technologies and interfaces are developed, users find that the old and new are seldom compatible. Now we have hope: USB is here to stay. But Bluetooth is here too, so you'll still have to decide which interface is right for you.
| Input interface | Benefit | Drawback | ||
| Bluetooth | No wires to get tangled, Bluetooth-equipped systems don't require an external signal receiver | Requires batteries or charger | ||
| Wireless | No wire attached to the mouse but the receiver dongle may have a wire | Requires the use of a USB signal receiver, batteries | ||
| USB | No batteries required, USB will be around for a long time | Not ideal for notebooks | ||
| PS/2 | No batteries required | PS/2 ports are outdated |

| Movement detection technology | Benefit | Drawback |

| Mechanical | Inexpensive, mouse pad optional | Mouse ball collects debris |
| Gyroscopic | Requires no surface, behaves as a remote control for media player software | May be inadequate for normal desktop use |
| Optical | Good performance,inexpensive, the way to go for most users | None |
