Side by Side Comparison of: Tecknet vs AmazonBasics

I've been using this mouse for maybe 4+ years now. I've had zero problems. The single AA battery it uses lasts for multiple years. It connects great, requires only a small USB dongle (included) in your computer. It has a great battery saving feature where it goes to sleep after a certain amount of non-use (maybe 5-10 minutes). Just click to wake it up. The scroll wheel feels great; nice indents/notches in the rotation. I don't know what it's called, but there's an additional great feature with the button just below the scroll wheel. This small button, when clicked, changes how much the cursor on the screen moves based on how much your hand moves. So with a big screen on a desktop computer, you'd probably want the cursor to move a lot with your hand movements. Whereas a small laptop screen would probably dictate the opposite, and this button controls 3 or 4 different options of this setting. Works great! Heck, I like it so much I just got a second one!*I received the product free in exchange for my unfiltered review.

Wish I could give it one star. It's complete junk. It stops working randomly and you have to remove the battery to get it working again. Spend a couple more bucks and get a real mouse and not this mistake. As soon as you pick it up you know you made a mistake and that this thing is garbage. I tried multiple batteries and multiple computers. When it works, it only works for a few minutes and dies. And it's not eligible for return, so they know it's junk and that they'd get them all back if they would accept them back.Update: The manufacturer contacted me and sent me a replacement mouse. I've only been using it for a couple hours now but it has worked flawlessly. I will update at a later date when I'm confident that I have gotten enough use to give an experienced opinion.

I have had this mouse for over 6 months now, still running on the single AA battery it came with. I am a big fan of the fact that this isn't a real gaming mouse, but has most of the features you would want from one. The mouse I use with my desktop (also for gaming and similar work) is a Marathon M705, which is 4 times the price and has the same button layout but with an additional one in the grip. The main difference is as with all Logitech mice you get sideways scrolling, and the Marathon has the ability to switch between free spinning scroll wheel and clicking. This mouse, on the other hand, has a DPI switch, which is not especially useful for gaming IMO since you need to press it five times to cycle through modes, but when I need extra precision in photoshop or the like it comes in handy.I haven't had connection issues at all. The mouse, while it is cheap, doesn't feel incredibly cheap. The marathon feels better but it's in a whole other price bracket. Having the ability to map just one or two actions to the mouse I couldn't otherwise is a plus, and I'm not playing WoW or something else requiring 50 hotkeys. There's no noticeable lag in mouse movement so it's fine for FPS games. It's fine for whatever else you need a 3-button-mouse for.

This wireless mouse worked straight out of the box with no issues. I'm not a gamer but I wanted a precision mouse for my everyday office use. This one has proven to be everything I needed. It feels good in my palm and gives me precise control when doing my editing and copying. I suggest this product and will buy another one for my other office. The quality feels and appears great. If there are any changes I will leave additional feedback in the future.Update: 04/14/17I have been using this mouse for 2 months and it is everything I was looking for. Precise, fast and easy to use. I have increased it to 5 stars. It has a very long battery life and the power saving sleep feature is a plus.Very economical and the quality is top of the line. I highly recommend this mouse.

I purchased this mouse after constantly cursing my "stock" HP mouse that came with the desktop I purchased. I work from home so I am using a mouse all day. I decided to give a wireless mouse a try, despite having mixed experiences with them in the past.I chose the TeckNet wireless mouse due to the long battery life claim and the curved left side for the thumb. I took a chance with ordering it online, but it turned out to be a good buy. The mouse is very comfortable and works well.Initially, I plugged the receiver into the back of my desktop, and I believe there was a little interference. Moved it to a front USB port and haven't had any issues since. I also switched to a newer mousepad and that seems to have helped as well. No lag issues at all at this point.This mouse also offers 3 DPI settings, which basically changes how quickly the cursor moves across your screen. I found one that I liked and am very happy with the options. Back/Forward buttons on the side are a nice touch as well, although I forget to use them most of the time.After one week of use, I am very happy with this product. Hard to beat at this price as well.

I have gone through at least 5 that I either had to return or throw away after a couple months. This one is awesome. It goes off on its on to preserve batteries and is very ergonomic! Great wireless mouse. Will be buying more for my other computers.

I especially like the roominess of this laptop bag. It fits a 15.6" laptop, mouse, and power adapter, leaving room for lots more. And yet, it doesn't seem over-large. I have another laptop bag that is more of a sleeve which I would not buy again. A laptop bag is useless if it doesn't allow room to carry at least the power cord.The quality of this bag seems good for the occasional user. I don't travel with my laptop a lot but need a decent bag for it when I do. I wish it came in other colors, though.

This bag is rather inexpensive but is really well made. It has several pockets with the middle one opening up to put the laptop down into with a fabric lining on ether side which separates the laptop from items you can put in on either side of it. The handle and straps and very strong and you can rest assured that it wont rip and no one will just be able to pull it away from you in hopes the handles, strap or material will give way. This will definitely work for a long time - or can do until you have enough money to get a really expensive one. All black allows anyone to use it and it would go from casual to professional.

I have a Microsoft Surface 3, and I was using an old ipad case that had only handles. I wanted to add a shoulder strap, so I found this case. It was inexpensive and had handles AND a strap. When I received it, I was pleasantly surprised. The inside has a 3 compartments....the middle for my computer and two others to separate papers or other items from the computer. It also has a front zippered pocket for small thing and a larger zippered area for larger things. This is my favorite computer bag, and I especially like that I can carry it hands-free too. I highly recommend it!

I purchased this laptop bag for my Dell XPS 13 for transport purchase and not for the purpose of protecting the laptop from a high-altitude drop. As such, I cannot attest for that purpose. There are three zippered pockets for this bag. The main opening on the top of the bag is secured by double zippers, the other two openings on the front of the bag are secured by single zippers. Inside the main opening a laptop fits neatly into the middle and it has side pockets on either side which could be used for flat objects. I am not using these pockets for anything. The next opening on the front is where I keep my main accessories. Inside this opening there are three open pockets on the side closest to the laptop. This is where I keep my bluetooth mouse, the AC power cord, and the power brick. In front of the three pockets is a larger pocket, this is where I keep my cables, currently, and miniHD to HDMI cable, a USB to mini-USB cable and some earbuds. At the very front of the bag is the smaller zippered opening which is currently used to carry the over-the-shoulder strap that comes with the bag. The bag is of very good quality with adequate stitching. At top are two handstraps situated on either side of the main opening which appear to be strongly attached to provide secure carrying when loaded with laptop and accessories. The bag works really well for the Dell XPS 13 and I strongly recommend it for that other similar sized ( 8"x12"x11/16") laptops or notebooks.

This bag is wonderful and seems to be well made. The little pocket in the front is perfect for chargers or various electronic products (it is nice and roomy). The second pocket in the front has pockets on the interior wall (that seem to be the same size) that allow you to place a phone, headphones, plugs, a small external hard drive, batteries, etc, inside and keep them nice and organized (this pocket is also roomy so you definitely could place a decent sized novel inside it. Then the main pocket has a pocket on the exterior wall (that would be nice for an ebook reader or small tablet), the main compartment (that can fit 3-7 legal sized notepads... this depends on the depth of your computer of course), and there is a nice pocket on the interior wall of the main compartment that fits my 13.3 macbook pro with retina display [early 2015] perfectly.... if your computer is thicker, you might want to put the notebooks in the interior pocket and the computer in the main compartment. Basically, this bag is perfect to carry all your stuff (besides just your computer and technology). This bag also comes with a nice shoulder strap which helps immensely when carrying this around, I've literally filled this thing to capacity (over 40 pounds) and this bag held up all day [12 hours] and the shoulder strap made it a lot less painful to carry around. This bag is a wonderful carry on for airplanes. The fabric on the front of the bag is stain-proof (to coffee, tea, ink)... but that may be due to the fact that it is black. I love this bag because everything inside it feels protected... it is awesome.

I bought this bag for my Acer C720P Chromebook (11.6-Inch Touchscreen, 2GB) Moonstone White, which replaced a sluggish ASUS TF700 and an even slower Dell Inspiron N4010. The Chromebook fits perfectly.PROS-Very lightLittle pocket holds power bank and walletMedium pocket holds 2 piece charging cord, flash drives and necessary cords for my phoneFits Chromebook VERY well.The backside can hold a phone case belt clip, which is great for when I try to hold everything together.Large pocket has two dividers, and I use one pocket for my Chromebook and the others for my notebooks.The amazing price (when compared to similar bags).Looks greatZippers are really high qualityCON-Not a big fan of the shoulder strap, so I just used the handles instead.Other thoughts-I'm planning to buy another soon for my mom's HP Stream 11.Nothing else compares to this bagAmazonBasics is a really good brand

First and foremost, this is an attractively designed mouse. The plastic piece that is colored has a satin finish look. It also feels great in the hand. I tried it on a Mac first. It just worked with no driver. But, I should note that, without a driver, you can't program the buttons on the side. That's not a huge deal but if you're buying it for a Mac, you should know that. A little research shows that you should be able to use the Accessibility control panel to program the buttons.It works with no driver install on a PC too. Again, the side buttons aren't customizable without a driver, which I couldn't find on the Tecknet site. My understanding is that there are decent 3rd party drivers which work.For the price, it's a great value. Even with the side button challenges, I would still recommend it.

Edit 9/18/17. The mouse still works very well; and I am happy with the purchase. Kathy at customer services sent me a mouse pad as a way to thank me for my purchase. The mouse pad works great with the mouse! Thanks again.It's a very solid mouse with a couple of minor issues.Pros:1. Less than $10.2. Nice shape and feel.3. Installation was super easy, truly plug and play.Cons:1. The clicking of the bottom is a bit noisy.2. Takes a little while to wake up from sleep (not too bad though). I guess that's how to make the battery lasts.All in all, a good wireless mouse and I would buy it again.

I replaced my old mouse because it needed batteries too often. This one is much better in that regard. The optics seem a little less sensitive sometimes -- it's not consistent, so I haven't found a perfect solution. I don't really use the side buttons, except by mistake, so I would prefer that they not exist.EDIT: I upgraded my review from 3 to 4 stars because of the excellent customer service I received after I posted this comment. Regarding the optics, a good way of describing my problem was that it seemed like it wasn't getting good traction, if that makes sense. It works well on something dark - a black mousepad, or a paper with a lot of dark writing. The shape of the mouse is very comfortable!

I bought this mouse to replace a cabled mouse because one of the buttons was no longer working. This mouse works well and has been for over 2 yrs. I don't take it everywhere I go because I'm afraid it'll eventually ware out one of the buttons. The usb nib is very low profile so I can' stick the laptop in a sleeve and not have to remove the usb. It is easy enough to plug in and unplug. Battery life on the mouse is pretty good for a usb mouse, I've only had to switch out the AA battery about once of twice so far. I'm 5'6" and my hand fits comfortably over the mouse without the claw hold or extending my fingers to press a button.

Update 3/2/17 - The seller saw the below review and contacted me. He offered a full refund without returning the mouse and it came through. While I would never buy the product again I do recommend the seller for making things right even way after the return/refund window.Low quality. The USB Nano Receiver fell apart while plugged into the USB port. I gently tried to remove it, as I've done many times, and the black outer case separated into 2 pieces, the chip inside came out, and silver USB sleeve was stuck in the port. It took mini pliers and gentle pulls/wiggles to free the sleeve. I DO NOT recommend this product, very disappointing and could've broken the USB port.

Really comfortable for RIGHT hand users only, I tried using it with my left and it is terrible, so if you're a lefty you're out of luck. It seems pretty sturdy, nothing is loose, which is good. Two things wrong with this is the DPI switch doesn't work and neither does the orange buttons on the side, maybe that's only a feature for someone with a laptop? I tried almost everything and none of those two work at all, they're pretty must a cosmetic appeal at this point, but it's no big deal because I wouldn't have used them either way, just though I should point that out. Another thing I noticed is that there are no lights coming off this. Usually there is a red light on the bottom of the mouse by the sensor but there's nothing and there's no light on top that goes off, usually there's supposed to be an indication light for your battery level. I guess it does it to save battery life? Anyway, bottom line is that it's pretty comfortable, and all of the main buttons work, so I'm happy. I'd recommend this if you're looking for a comfortable full size mouse and you're right handed.

This is a great bag for a smaller laptop. It holds the laptop, charger, bluetooth mouse and a myfi without feeling bulky and getting excessively large. My only issue is that the rear suitcase strap is just slightly too small to fit over the handle of a rolling suitcase, same for the hand straps on top. You can work it on to the suitcase but it is not a quick procedure and I worry I'm going to tear the bag in the process. Beyond this minor annoyance, I have been very pleased with the purchase.

Perfect for my needs. My 15" laptop fits perfectly, plus I even had room for the Officemate Slim Clipboard Storage Box, Charcoal (83303). There is also a handy internal pocket for files, and two other compartments for office supplies.The material seems to be hardy and the workmanship is fine.The only thing that would have made it better would have been an additional pocket on the backside.

This is a nice laptop bag that is just the right size for my 11 inch laptop. It has a couple of extra pockets to store things and a nice handle. The only small issue I have is that it bulges a bit when I try to put the power adapter in the front pocket, but that's not too big an issue. If you are looking for a small bag to protect or carry your laptop, this one seems to be a good deal. Some people have reported issues with the shoulder strap. I don't use it so I can't comment much on that.

I'd say this one fits the "Basics" moniker very well, for better and for worse (though the worse isn't so bad at all).I've been using this for a few months now, and it has been holding up perfectly well. Construction seems very solid all around, padding is minimal but firm and sufficient, straps seem durable. Lots of different pockets on the inside (including three interior pockets in the larger front compartment, as per the photo) and three separate compartments overall, so there are many ways to separate your stuff and room for all the essentials. The overall look is trim and attractive, the zippers and smooth and seem sturdy, and it's a nice light weight.Downsides? No dealbreakers, just lack of refinements or niceties. There are no feet on the bottom of the case, so it's just resting on the same material as the rest of the exterior. So far it's holding up fine, but it is more slippery than rubber feet would be, so it tends to slide down and lay flat on its back if you rest it at an angle. The relatively narrow thickness of the case magnifies this effect. The shoulder strap seems fine, but the plastic hooks at either end don't rotate quite as smoothly as metal would, so the strap tends to get twisted pretty easily. The interior fabric has held up well for me, but it is fairly thin and makes a bit of a pronounced crinkly sound when you access the interior pockets. The aforementioned relative thinness of the case back to front does limit what you can stuff into the bag - I've had a laptop, file folder, phone/wallet/etc, and not overly thick book all layered inside, and that fills up its thickness pretty well. Definitely on the narrow side of cases, but then again that's part of why I bought it. Wanted something trim and efficient, not heavy and bulky.Overall, very satisfied with it and glad I got it. If I could change one thing, it would be to have rubber feet or some other kind of protective traction on the bottom. Apart from that, the "basics" in this bag are acceptable and make it a great deal.

I just got my bag this morning and it seems to be pretty great so far. the bag has one large pocket with 3 dividers that got long ways, which are perfect for my 2 kindle fires, and my other larger tablet. the middle zipper pocket is perfect for smaller things. i use the middle pocket for my wifi hot spot and power bank. it has 2 sleeves which fit them both perfectly. you can also fit an additional smaller tablet or android in there too if you wanted. the last and smallest pocket is good for wires and pens, not much else. All in all if your looking for a smaller travel bag for your tablet or kindle, then this bag will probaly work for you. just make sure you know what size screen you have before you but this. the title says laptop, but i think its more of a tablet bag . a small thin laptop will fit but the battery charger might not.

This is a nice quality bag at a cheap price. The only thing I didn't really like were the rubber grip zippers with the Amazon Basics logos on them. It would have looked a little more professional without that and I'm curious to see the durability of the rubber grips versus a conventional full-metal zipper grip. I read other reviews complaining of a "chemical" smell but I think they have probably never smelled neoprene before. Some people were also complaining about it being a little over-sized for the iPad but I disagree. This is not an iPad case, it's universal netbook case. I think it's a nice size, especially if you have a case on your iPad as well. You can also fit a few accessories in the separate front pocket without worry about it scratching up your device.

Scrolls, points but left buttons and scroll click do nothing. Not programmable. Immediately made it to my garage sale pile.Might do exactly what you need and expect. Did not for me.UPDATED: Seller reached out and refunded as the product just did not suit purpose as expected. Much appreciated and the updated stars are for the vendor. Do be sure this product meets your needs but good to know the vendor stands behind their product if issues arise.

I do like the ergonomics of this mouse, its great and very comfortable. Pretty much everything you need in a mouse, it even has forward and back buttons. However, the mouse that I received has a defective on/off switch. Whether off or on, it doesn't matter. The unit stays one the entire time. So what I do is I reverse the battery when I pack up my things so that the mouse will not stay on. This could be VERY inconvenient for some and may even regard it as 1 star for that. I don't mind that much really, hence the 3 star.

I'm disappointed with this mouse. It freezes up on me all the time! I do a lot of gaming on my laptop so a working mouse is essential as fellow gamers know. This mouse will be fine for a bit then randomly stop working and get stuck. I move it all over the place to try and unfreeze it. Sometimes it works again other times I really have to mess with it to get it work. This is definitely a no go for a gamer. So displeased because I really use it on a daily basis but it's not getting the job done. I will be looking to purchase something different. And yes, I did try changing the batteries.UPDATE: the seller read my review, offered an apology and gave me a full refund. Changed my rating to 3 stars. My specific item didn't work as intended but the company provides excellent customer service. Thanks

So the mouse worked perfectly for about two months. And then suddenly, one fine morning it just stopped working!I thought may be it is the battery so I changed it but no use. The pointer did move a little with the mouse movement but just erratically jumping around. I tried it on different surfaces to see if it is a surface problem - but nothing helped. With such a sleek design and really nice features such as automatic turn off etc. - it is a pity that it had to break down in two months. Unfortunate!Update: Giving the product 2 stars and posting the above mentioned review, I was contacted by the sale reps and offered a full refund. I took it. Hence updating the review. Getting a refund was good but it does not makeup for the hassle caused by the failure.

First the feel of this mouse is great, feels very comfortable and looks very high tech and cool..... .However, it seems way too sensitive, Playing and using the under controls are too touchy, also if there is anything at all under the mat or on the table you are using it on, it will not function properly, the laser got clogged with one cat hair and I couldnt figure it out, when I sprayed it down with the air can it came out, but seems to have a jump, not sure why, but it gets a little frustrating.. But like I said, it is very sensitive for sure.. so it may be good for some and better for others.. but for what I use my computer for its too touchy.

1) It is not really a nano mouse. My Logitech nano is probably 30% smaller. This is important for those of us who have small desks on which to use our mice.2) There is an annoying "sleep mode" where, after a period of inactivity, the mouse only becomes responsive after one of the mouse buttons is clicked. I'm guessing this extends the life of the battery, but I don't think most will be used to it. I thought my wife unplugged the USB transmitter that came with the mouse until I figured out what it took to get it to respond again.3) I'm using this mouse on a Mac and the mouse and the left and right click work perfectly, as does the scroll wheel, don't expect the other "extra" buttons to work without buying 3rd party software.If none of these are of concern to you, the mouse is a great deal and will likely serve you well.

I like the design of this bag and the size is what I expected. It "appears" that it is sturdy however the one I received had a problem with the stitching. The inside flap appears to have been cut a bit short so it did not catch the stitching an came open. Fortunately it was easy to return and I will try again to see if I can get a good one and update the review appropriately.

It fits my Lenovo chromebook fine, but it's a tight fit to include much more than a bullet journal and a few pens with the chromebook n the bag. Keeping the charger and a mouse is too much in the bag.Other reviewers also complain about the strap hooks coming undone when used. I confirm the strap hooks do come undone, but I don't know how it happens. Happened three times to me since I started using it, and now pieces of black tape over the hooks have kept it together.

Very basic bag, gets the job done. No complaints, but I would recommend something sturdier for heavier devices, as it's not very well padded and if care isn't taken you could damage a device. Not recommended if you're prone to drops, bumping or accidents. But does the job fine if you simple need something to carry a laptop or large tablet around in.

As a bag, it's kind of cheap but it gets the job done. Has space for your cords and such, and if your laptop doesn't have a massive vent off of the back, I'm pretty sure you'll have plenty of space.For my laptop, the ASUS ROG G752, it doesn't fit. If the bag was a half inch taller, it would fit perfectly, albeit with a bit of convincing from the zipper. As it is, it's barely too small.If you're looking for something that'll get your laptop from the dorm to the classroom, this bag will do you fine. If you have a big and proud gaming laptop that you want to protect for cheap, just get a sleeve instead. Arvok's 17.3 inch sleeve fits my PC perfectly and has the padding to protect it to and from robotics meetings and LAN parties, for any fellow G752 owners out there.

The Bad:As a few other reviewers mentioned, the shoulder strap WILL unclip when just the right orientation of the clip hook to the bail it attaches to occurs. What happens is that the clip hook doesn't always swivel freely, especially if the strap has twisted itself across the side of the bag. When you lift it up, the clip doesn't swivel and all the weight of the bag deflects the flexible part of the clip sideways, out of the hook body and the hook pops off of the bail. I think the only way to fix this would be with a metal clip body. You can avoid this if you wiggle the strap a bit before you pick up the bag to make sure the strap extends straight up and the clips aren't jacked sideways.A smaller issue is that the length of the strap material is such that the adjustment slider is in the exact spot you would want the should pad to be when set to the average person's size.The Good:This is a really nice bag for $14. I got the 11" version and it feels durable and well padded. The padding seems fine for the weight of a typical 11" Chromebook but I suspect there is too little in the corners for larger, heavier laptops. The zippers seem tough and the straps are well sewn and durable. The pockets are nice though it's too bad the pocket that has the sleeves for a wallet, pens, etc. is also the only pocket big enough for a power supply. So you can't easily get at your pens, etc. if the power supply is in there. All in all, a really nice bag. I would say it can't be touched for under $20

I bought this bag for a Lenovo 14" flex, but it is an exact tight fit, the zippers would scratch the corners or the wide side up if you are not careful, the Lenovo 14" flex's four corners are way up to the edge of each corner of the bag. But it is good for the 14" size Asus laptop, since it's 1/2 inch smaller than the 14" Lenovo. the bag is not really padded compared to other ones I have. So you would rather pay more and get another bag where you can transport your laptop with extra dropping protection.I'm giving the 3 star rating based on the poor padding issue

I bought the black color of the mouse a few years ago. I kept it for a long time and it served me well with no problems. It had a long battery life and was nice and light weight. I was very happy with it.I lost the USB plug for it, and it appears you can't just replace the plug, so I purchased a new purple mouse. Unfortunately this new one cuts out frequently (yes, I have replaced the battery), which makes it annoying to use in most cases, and impossible to use for video games, drafting, or any task that is mouse input reliant. I probably just got a bad one, but the return period has passed now, so I'm stuck without recourse.

I dropped my Logitech mouse a few times too many times and thought I'd give this a try. I have found that the battery lasts about 4-5 months, nowhere near the 18 months the company claims (and I'm talking super long life batteries, not even the regular AA batteries). I also find that something about the shape makes my mousing hand crampy and uncomfortable. My computer habits have not changed, just the mouse. I may go back to the little Logitech (also a battery hog). I really wanted to love this mouse, but it's not happening.

Update: A rep contacted me from Tecknet and offered to refund my money or ship me a new mouse. I chose the latter, since the credit card I ordered it under expired. So that was very decent of them.The scrolling is jumpy; I am scrolling down and it jumps back up. I replaced batteries and nothing. I blew air into it both sides. Nothing. You cannot even take it apart to fix the scrollwheel. What do you expect for $10? Worked fine until now. Disappointed.

I have smaller hands so the size is a plus BUT as much as I want to like this mouse, less than 3 months and the scroll wheel has started to be erratic. Confirming what a few other reviewers have stated, the mouse is very good at this price point aside from the erratic wheel behavior. I use this for my job and has become beyond frustrating to the point where I cannot use it.EDIT:The company contacted me and sent me a replacement free of charge and it is working nicely so far. Hopefully it does not develop the scroll wheel issue over time. Adding stars for great customer service!UPDATE:Unfortunately the jumpy scroll wheel issue is apparently a design flaw and has returned to plague the replacement. Too bad because I liked this mouse otherwise. I will be seeking another brand.

I am very disappointed with the short lived functionality of this wireless mouse, it worked great for 2.5 months but now has gone from moving erratically across the screen to becoming extremely sluggish. I have checked the batteries and installed fresh ones to insure proper signal strength along with making sure there is no dirt or debris blocking or preventing the signal from reaching the nano transmitter attached to my laptop. I even tried using 2 other machines i.e. a second laptop and desktop to no avail getting similar results, I was looking forward to getting at least a year of usage out of this unit . By the way I also checked the different Dpi settings and the product support at their website for a driver update or solution to fix the problem, was only offered a user manual.

Scroll wheel broke after a few months of use, rendering the mouse useless. Below, I'll list the pros and cons.Pros:Mouse turns itself off automatically after a few minutes of inactivity which is great for battery life.Battery life is really good, I've haven't had to change the battery yet and I've had it for several months.Build quality is good for the price you're paying.Cons:You have to get used to the movement speed of the cursor. It has 3 different DPI settings but they're either too fast or too slow in my opinion, none are just right.If you press the scroll wheel a bit too hard, the DPI changes which is frustrating.Scroll wheel broke after a few months of normal use. Now when I scroll, it sporadically moves up when I scroll down and vice versa.Overall, I'd say get this if you only plan on using it temporarily for a few months. If you want a mouse that'll last you a while, spend a few extra bucks and go with a logitech or microsoft one.UPDATE: The manufacturer contacted me and fully refunded my purchase even after the refund period. Their customer service was excellent.

I was looking for a bag that could hold my tablet, some papers and some office supply so I didn't have to lug my larger bag that I use for my laptop. I bought the small and it was way too small - not that everything didn't fit, it just looked like a "murse" (man purse). I'm going to try the larger size and see if it's a bit more masculine.

It'[s just a darned good thing that the laptop isn't 15.7 - instead of 15.6". It BARELY fits and does not have near the padding that a bit more expensive case has. I'll keep it for 14" and do as I normally do ... put craft-store flat foam (e.g. seat cushion) inside as well. I'm keeping them; but reluctantly.... Just don't have the desire to 'fight yet something else in life'.

Editing my comment 6 months in. The bag works well, but I have had one glaring problem with it. The clip for the bag's strap cut a hole in the bag's fabric. This hole exposes the laptop compartment to air, moisture, all the things I want the bag to protect it from. This is an inexpensive bag, I wasn't expecting it to last forever. I was hoping to get more than 6 months out of it, and I am particularly annoyed that the bag's own hardware caused the hole the in bag. This is why I'm bringing my rating down to 2 stars.My original 4-star review, written when I'd been using the bag for less than a week, follows:This is a good quality bag, with padding to protect a laptop. This has enough pockets and room to carry your everyday items without being bulky. (I can carry a large file folder, a pencil case, a pad, and some cables/plugs etc, along with a 15" laptop.) I've only had it a few days now, so I can't speak to its long-term durability. But it feels solid and well-constructed. The padded shoulder strap and handles are a nice touch.There are two things I wish were a little different. One, I wish the laptop section were separate from the main section. The whole compartment is padded, but anything in that compartment can bang against the laptop. (The very delicate retina displays on current Mac laptops make me worried about this.) Two, I wish the bag had one or two outside pockets for storing an umbrella and water bottle. Those are two everyday items I often want to carry with me. Aside from that, I'm happy with this bag.

I own about a dozen laptop and tablet bags, including some name brands. This is the first AmazonBasics I have ever bought. I hesitated because some reviewers complained about insufficient padding. Since it is so inexpensive, I decided to give it a try.Surprisingly, the padding is not thin at all. It is actually among the best in its category. I own virtually every kind of laptop bags. Only suitcase style laptop cases have thicker padding than this, if you don't mind carrying that weight.I am very satisfied. I am sure I will buy more AmaxonBasics products in the future.Update on 1/2/2016Downgraded from 5 stars. The shoulder pad is broken.The shoulder pad is designed to have problem. The cloth on one side is too thin. The strap keeps cutting the edges of the curved pad In only a little more than two months, the pad is broken.

I got this for my Lenovo Yoga 3 14". It fit the laptop and a few accessories very well. The shoulder pad is clunky and poorly designed so I got rid of it. The clips are also a little awkward, and were partially responsible for the accident that broke my laptop screen.I was reaching to adjust the clip while the bag was on my shoulder. The clip had twisted upside down. It came undone after very little pressure and the bag fell from my shoulder. It landed on fairly soft dirt, but the bag has almost no padding--particularly on the corners. It fell not very far, and I assumed it was fine. However when I got to work and pulled it out the corner of my touchscreen had cracked pretty badly.The bag is pretty good for carrying if you are careful of the clips, and it is a good slim size. However it is not helpful for protecting your laptop.

This bag has two significant problems that really should be addressed.Firstly, the padding is insufficient in the bottom corners. There is enough padding at the bottom and sides, but almost no padding at the corners, which are the most vulnerable points on your laptop.Secondly, the shoulder strap attaches to the bag with two plastic clips, and they can let go when least expected, especially when the strap was a little twisted before picking it up. This has happened to me on multiple occasions.The combination of these two problems has led to my laptop suffering corner damage from falling onto pavement when I picked up my bag by the strap, and it decided to let go.If you have a nice laptop, this is an accident waiting to happen.

Right out of the box. Every few moments the mouse mouse must be turned off then back on to maintain image on my Desktop screen. I have changed batteries 3 times. I have changed to usb position of the mouse control twice. The item is defective. I find that Amazon will not accept the return. I can understand why. Sad very Sad.

Did not work when arrived. Tried three different batteries thinking I might have had some dead ones. Power light never came on. Plugged the micro transmitter in the USB port and was given a message that there was not enough power to activate it. Thought I might of had an issue with the computer I was on, so I tried it on another computer, had the same issues. Seller does not allow returns, so I contacted Amazona about my issues. They were great, took my informations and gave me a total refund. Do not know if this is a common issue with this mouse, but I will not deal with a seller who will not exchange or refund on a faulty item.

I ordered this mouse based on the high volume of very high ratings. It freezes up on me multiple times a day. I'll be actively moving my cursor across the screen and it will just stop. Then start, then stop again. I have to sit and wait for it to decide to start working again. It also lacks precision. Sometimes I'm trying to highlight something and it will only move in 3-4 letter groups at a time, rather than one letter at a time. I have tried several different mouse pads with no change so it's not the surface it's on; it's the mouse. I'm so frustrated that I'm throwing it away and buying something else.

This mouse has been a complete disappointment! It hardly ever works! When it is working it's always going to a sleep or timeout mode! I can't believe the batteries could be out when it is hardly every functioning! Changing the batteries makes no difference, Maybe I got a defective one because this mouse is almost completely useless! I have never, in all my decades of computer, use had so much trouble with a wired or wireless mouse! I am going back to Logitech or Microsoft.

Does not slide well over any of my mouse pads. THE WORST are the side buttons. So close to the thumb that if you accidentally touch one you are bounced out of what you are working on and have to start over. I just received this so not sure about how long battery will last but it is sluggish in response and a dinosaur to move.Update: The company good with communication and sent replacement; unfortunately, the replacement did not work. However, the company refunded my account in full.

We bought two of these, just in case one broke. But given the good reviews, we thought it was a good deal. Unfortunately, the scroll-wheel stopped working after 45 days, and the return window had closed 15 days earlier. We'll see how the second mouse goes, but I am skeptical based on its predecessor's performance.

Bought it for my employee because of it's price. But I would not use it ever. Feels very cheap and not well designed. Come on amazon you can do better!

Actually, it is a very nice item for the price. However, I purchased it as it was recommended with Lenovo Yoga 11e, and it does not come close to fitting. Well, it comes close, but you CAN NOT slide laptop itself into bag. No way, no how.

Product is small and light as advertised. However I would not recommend this if you're traveling with a suitcase. Normally on the back of laptop cases you can slip the laptop on the handle of the suit case. They made the hook to small, so it makes it difficult to handle the bag and suit case

I hate to do it. Honestly, I do. The case was great and fit my Toshiba Satellite snug and securely. Plenty of pockets for the mouse, USB cords, the charger, etc. Plenty of room. Life was good.Then it happened. The strap unclipped itself while I was leaving my office this afternoon. You see, they are intended to be free spinning, typical straps. Except when it doesn't twist, it will come off. Another review I read mentioned this. "Nah, that's just a once in a blue moon scenario" I told myself after reading it. I shuddered the same phrase as I watched the case fall corner first. Not even enough time to realize what had happened, as it was only hanging from my shoulder....Opened the bag to find my 850 dollar laptop with a dented frame and shattered screen. That was hours ago, and now here I am. Return processed and a backpack ordered. Just get a backpack, It's not worth the risk to your electronics. There isn't enough padding. Learn from my mistakes! Look at the carnage and don't let it happen to yours!!

The laptop bag is very small and does not have good padding to protect the laptop. The bag is very thin. Cheap material used to manufacture the bag. I returned it.

The shoulder strap on the bag simply popped loose one day, causing my laptop to make fast friends with the concrete and breaking the laptop.
