Kensington PocketMouse

Great inexpensive addition to any MacBook pro

I've been using this mouse for four weeks now and i've found it a great addition I have good size hands, although its small does'nt take long to get used to.
After all its for on the road and you need it compact.
The scrolling and right click respond great . We bought three of them together for our new books, and feel it was a great addition. Just plugged it in and go. simple as that.

No exterminator needed for THIS mouse. IT ROCKS MY SOCKS!

Written by AH from Preston

This is the best mouse I have EVER used. The size of it took NO getting used to--it's like I should have been using it all along!! ***I don't have tiny hands either, mind you-- I have long fingers-- so I think that it would work for everbody. It works like a charm, and it travels very well. (it fits perfectly in my Brenthaven bag too...PERFECTLY!)
I think I would have an issue with converting back to those BIG CLUNKY PRIMITIVE standard size mice. What a joke they are.

p.s. it's not as teeny-tiny as you are probably thinking either---but it is smaller than standard. It's juuuust smaller than a new bar of soap. ;)

Best Mouse I've Ever Owned...

Written by RP

Apr 11, 2009

This mouse is PERFECTION. It works better than any mouse, wireless or otherwise, I've EVER OWNED. I purchased mine when they first came out and it was substantially cheaper. It has served me well for almost 10 years now. I couldn't live with out it and wouldn't bother spending any extra money on any other mouse when this one truly is "the mighty mouse"! Don't bother spending big bucks. None other has as much bang for any amount of bucks. Right size, right feel, & perfect for home or travel. I've had to keep an eye on mine. Everybody wants to "borrow" it.

A Mouse that just simply, works!

Written by HK from Montville

I've had this mouse for six months now, attracted by the low price - even keeping in mind "you get what you pay for". This is a refreshing contradiction to that adage! It's still chugging along just as perfectly as it was when i first got it. I don't give a second thought when I plug it into my iBook - I expect it to work, and it does! Although the size is a little small, it definitely does help when packing it into your bag. It's light and doesn't take up much space.

I can't recommend this mouse enough. Now, only if they'd make a wireless version. :)

Flawless and comfortable

Written by GB from San Francisco

I plugged it in without installing the software. Has been working perfectly ever since. And even though it's very small, it's surprisingly comfortable, even for someone like me with large hands. Terrific product at a terrific price.

THE best...

Written by JM from New York

This is the ultimate mouse for me. I bought mine after reading the reviews for all the mice and am very glad I did. It is a perfect size, performs perfectly with full right/left click functions, and is reasonably priced to boot. A real win for me.

Love this mouse!

Written by CW from Waco

Have to say I got the white Apple Mouse because I wanted everything to look consistent. However, I ended up getting the Kensington because the feel was, how shall I say, more intuitive. I've gone from PC to Mac and the Kensington just felt better. Maybe I'll go back to the white mouse but not real soon! Love this silver guy!

It still works :)

Written by JT from Keller

Sep 15, 2006

I have been using this mouse with my ibook for almost a year, and the good news is that it works still. Nothing like a time trial to determine a product's good design. I have big hands, and don't find it irritating. I find the trackpad and single button annoying, and have always used an optical mouse with two buttons. This one is my second, I wore the first one out at the cord junction (2 years' use). The only con in my view is that 1% or less of the time, it will jump my cursor to the edge of the screen. It hasn't caused any damage in work or games, but does tend to bother slightly. It has given worry free service, though. Out of the box, it worked immediately and hasn't stopped?! Nicely fits with my ibook in that respect.

Portable Mouse That Tracks and Scrolls Easily

Written by BW from L;Orignal

Nov 22, 2007

This pocket mouse plugs into the USB port on my new keyboard, which I find much better than before when I had a wireless keyboard and my mouse plugged into the back of my large external display and the mouse wire would get snarled as I moved the mouse. This pocket mouse is a little small and takes some getting used to but it's no problem. I have small hands and this mouse is very narrow so to hold it I have to kind of make my thumb and ring finger go under my hand instead of just down from my hand as with my bigger mouse, but once I got used to it, I enjoy it. The mouse is very light and attractively matched my new aluminum Apple keyboard. I find the mouse tracks very easily on the mouse pad with no hesitation or wandering and the scroll wheel works very well although it has a completely different feel to that of my previous bigger mouse. I like the fact that this mouse has a thinner wire which isn't as clunky and the mouse comes with a cute little pouch to carry it in. I found the price also very reasonable and I ordered this item four weeks before Christmas and I'm in Canada and I still received it in only 5 days.

I've had this mouse for several months now. I've had no problems, and it works great. The small size is also really nice and makes it easy to carry around.

Excellent! Highest rating!

Written by MW from Greensboro

Jan 27, 2009

I have had Macs since 1988, and this is undoubtedly the best mouse I have ever had! And at $14.95! It seems that it has changed the efficiency of my laptop...I am actually amazed. Now, if it will be durable...I am HOME!

I like the right/left clicking ability, and the option to use it with its USB hub, if necessary. It is light, and very responsive. I will be getting an extra for my briefcase this week.

Marvelous Mini

Written by EB from Beverly Hills

Just purchased the PocketMouse for my laptop and I love it! Pleasing ergonomic design, pretty silver color, and very accurate. All you do is plug in the USB and go! Especially nice for those of us with small hands. If you have larger hands, get the fullsize version.

Now THIS is Mighty!

Written by KW from Sea Bright

It's wonderful. I got it as a replacement for my finicky Mighty Mouse and it's a whole lot better. Except for one thing: the downloadable software disables the center button and there doesn't seem to be a way to configure it.
