UtechSmart Venus Gaming Mouse RGB Wired, 16400 DPI High Precision Laser Programmable MMO Computer Gaming Mice [IGNs Recommendation]

Edit: 8 months later, I still love this mouse! The UtechSmart VENUS Pro wins my award for the Best Ergonomic Wireless Productivity Mouse of 2020. I am a mouse enthusiast, and this is my 9th and favorite mouse. PROs: 1. With 16 buttons, I have been able to program keyboard shortcuts to operate from my mouse, and I love it. My coworkers are jealous of my ability to mute and unmute our conference calls with a dedicated mouse button. 2. The ability to switch between wireless and corded is really cool. 3. The lights are cool. 4. Ergonomics are great. The ergonomics of this mouse are so good I almost forgot to mention it, because it feels so good I quit thinking about it. I have rejected other ergonomic mice because they werent big enough, but this mouse fills up my hand allowing me to hold a nice round shape and reach the buttons comfortably. Most ergonomic mice are too small or flat such that I have to distort or shrink my hand to grip them. Of the 12 side buttons, there are two buttons that I cant reach easily. I suppose I can reach them, but I have to adjust my grip enough that I usually dont bother. If you dont use those 2 buttons, you will still have a 14 button wireless ergonomic mouse, which is better than Ive been able to find anywhere else on the Internet. CONs: 1. The software to program this mouse is only available for Windows. No Mac Software. If you are rich enough to own a Mac, then you probably have an old windows laptop under your bed or in your closet. You can program your mouse on the windows computer and then use your newly programmed mouse, including shortcuts, on your mac. NOTE: The free mac software called Karabiner can act as a substitute for the missing mac software. After youve set it up with Karabiner, you can also use the mouse with the productivity software Better Touch Tool and Alfred. Karabiner and Better Touch Tool can make any mouse programmable. 2. This mouse does not work well on my dark, grey desk. Often it will not track motion smoothly on dark surfaces, as though the laser or light underneath is not strong enough to reflect off of a dark surface. The problem doesnt happen every day, but it happens often enough that I cant use it normally on my black desk. Since its not all the time, Ive tried to figure out what the trigger is for this problem kicking in. Ive decided its either when the battery is low, or else there is some kind of calibration where the mouse thinks its in a dark room and loses focus on my desk. If I use a colored mouse pad, or even a piece of paper under the mouse, it tracks motion great. I contacted the seller, and they were very quick to reply. They offered to send me a free mouse pad. I dont think that mousepad ever arrived, but it wasnt a big deal because I made my own mousepad. 3. The rechargeable battery life feels a little short to me. My other wireless mouse uses AA batteries, and they last at least a month. This mouse lasts about a week if I leave the lights off, or two days if I leave the lights on. Recharging this mouse is easy using the included USB cable, and I can keep using the mouse while its plugged in. Since this mouse can be used as a wired USB mouse, having the fancy lights on makes more sense when its plugged in. Less Important: I dont actually use this mouse for gaming, I use it to program productivity shortcuts (forward and backward in the browser, move between browser tabs, close windows, copy, paste, Ctrl, Command, Shift, Fn, zoom in and out). The scroll wheel on this mouse is the same as most gaming mice I have used: it scrolls with a bump or jump between lines. I actually would prefer a smooth scroll so that my page doesnt jump as I read. The only gaming mouse Ive used that does this is the wired Logitech G502, which could switch between bumpy and smooth scrolling. CONCLUSION: The battery life and lack of windows software have not been a major problem, but I am disappointed that it doesnt track well on a dark grey surface. I have fixed this by using a mousepad, but its the only thing keeping this from being my perfect productivity mouse. Ive spent years testing programmable mice for increased productivity. This is the only one Ive found that meets my 3 most important criteria: 1. Truly ergonomic 2. Wireless 3. More than 11 buttons. If you are ok with fewer buttons, or you arent as picky about ergonomics, then there a lot of other wireless mouse out there that will track on a black desk. You might enjoy the Logitech G602. But for me, the UtechSmart VENUS Pro wins my award for the Best Ergonomic Wireless Productivity Mouse of 2020.

I own two of the previous wired model of this mouse (work & home). I love it. My wife bough the wireless version recently and loved it as well. I then bought the wireless version for work so I wouldnt have to have my go to meetings mouse in addition to my main wired mouse. The pricing (on both versions) is also very reasonable. There are good & bad between the models. There are aspects to the new software that I like and some that I dislike. The wired version was hampered by having to use older software to get all the functionality. This one can use the new software. Lighting: There are additional lighting effects that were not available on the wired version. These features are still lacking in variety and options, but that is a minor complaint. Specifically, while plugged in it pulses a color (based on battery charge) rather than the light setting chosen. Id love to just use it wired when at my desk and wireless when off to meetings and such. I love the light color cycling and miss that when it is plugged in. Weight Compartment: The wired version had the bottom compartment with additional weights. This version is lacking that and thus a bit lighter than I am used to. While I liked the heavier weight it isnt a deal breaker for me. Software: The software, while newer, has fewer options for programming the keys compared to the older version. The older version had a ton of pre-made keys that were easy and available. You can get to the same functionality, but you have to add them as key combinations. An example was the old software had a pre-done entry for copy, paste, and other basic functions. On this one I had to manually create a ctrl + c hotkey. Again, not a huge issue for me, but I could see it being less useful for others who may not have an idea of what to put on all the keys. It certainly felt like a step backwards on that aspect. I suspect this has to do with them storing the profile on the mouse directly rather than in a file. Profiles: The software not having the profiles or way to toggle between them was odd. There is no indicator for which profile you are on. The button on the bottom to toggle profiles just felt odd as well. This might be worth the trade-off for having the two profiles on the mouse though. I absolutely hated that I couldnt convert my current profile onto the new mouse (.pdf profile in older version vs .jmk in this one). This forced me to re-create all my macros and re-assign them. Again, not a deal breaker as it is a one time setup and only impacts people with prior versions. Note, the software is PC only. You can set the mouse up on a Windows machine, it stores the profiles on the mouse, then you can use the mouse without issue on a Mac. Misc: The slot for the dongle on the bottom of the mouse is a bit odd. It sticks out just far enough that you cant use the mouse with the wired charger while the dongle is put in the mouse for storage. I dont understand why they didnt do the recessed tabs on top/bottom of it so you could grip it to pull the dongle out (like most other dongle storage layouts are). I suspect it is mostly a non-issue since you dont remove the dongle while you have it plugged in, it just seemed like an odd design choice (maybe something they can fix in the next hardware revision/version). The Good: Good size that fits hand very comfortably with the nice textured finish Good quantity of buttons to program High precision with adjustable DPI to get mouse movements just right Multiple profiles for different tasks Better lighting options compared to prior versions profiles stored on mouse (limit 2) The Less Good: no additional weight compartment in wireless version (wired version has it) lighting options, while better, are still underwhelming lighting option when plugged in is not existent less pre-created macro/key options in software compared to earlier versions (can manually create for functionality, just lose the ease of it) The Bad nothing that would sway my purchase decision Summary: This is a great mouse for the price. It is very comfortable to use and ticks off all the quality items needed for a functional mouse for gaming or customization of buttons. The software is its greatest weakness, but not detrimental to the point where it has a functional impact (just the area they should focus more effort on). I back this up with this wireless mouse version being my third of this style/brand of mouse for my own use (2 wired, 1 wireless) plus my wifes use of both the wired and wireless version too. Mac users need to be aware of the software limitation so they can get it setup on a Windows machine first, then theyll be ready to go.

Quick Note: the seller includes a sketchy usb stick to link you to a drop box to download the UI software and get some kind of reward for leaving a review. Its unnerving and you dont need to use it. You can go to the manufacturer website to download the same software file. I would recommend this just for best practice purposes. Battery Life: Wow I game and work remotely so Im using this mouse anywhere from 4-16 hours a day. Ive had it for a few months now and Ive charged it like 4 times. The battery life *if you dont have the lights on* is incredible. If you do have the lights on youll see it goes idle after about 30s of inactivity (might be programmable in the UI, cant remember). Lights and Customization: Colorful and bright, but I dont use them I never use the lights, but theyre cool. Theres plenty of customization options but I remember being a little underwhelmed with the options, like you cant have it cycle through custom gradients, but the UI is extremely user friendly. Buttons and Macros: All I need and more, but a little tedious to reach. I remember before I got the mouse, reading a couple comments mentioning the thumb keys felt weird to press? I have had no such experience. Easy to press but not easy enough to accidentally press. Although, the back two rows arent as easy to reach as the front two. Easy to setup keybindings or macros. You can get really creative with the macro settings. For work I created a Left Click, Home, Shift+End, CTRL+C to highlight and copy whatever line of text Im hovering over in a single click. Theyve also got both a timed and untimed macro maker so you can Only limitation is like 20 or 30 actions per macro (compared to Logitech which lets you bind entire sentences). In addition the trigger key (3 left clicks) is extremely useful and I use it soooo much more than I ever imagined I would. DPI and Accuracy: Hard to gauge? Im not gonna say anything is off, but I feel like Im having more trouble getting used to the mouses acceleration and movement patterns more than with previous mice. Havent had any issues playing ARPGs but in an FPS Id definitely need to be quickly toggling between DPI settings. That said the DPI button is easily accessible for the index finger. Size, Shape, Weight: Comfy and sturdy Nice wide mouse, shape is great, the tread on the wheel is nice, and its easy to click from far forward to far back. My hands are fairly large, so I think my perfect mouse would be a slightly scaled up version of this mouse, but the shape and size should be great for all but the largest hands. The mouse has a good weight to it, makes steady movements easy, definitely feels like a sturdy device.

Works as advertised, not my favorite mouse but still good.

I LOVE the button click which is why I gave this mouse 3 stars. I pretty much hate everything else about it. Issue 1: Ergonomically its fine as long as I never have to lift it off my mouse pad. It is NOT designed to be easy to lift (I have NO weights installed). The shape forces me to grip it hard just to lift it. I have to catch the tiny little vertical surface on the thumb side or hold onto the multi-button surface neither of which is a good thing. The small finger side has a rounded surface which gives no good purchase for lifting. This is a ONE STAR feature. Issue 2: The surface is pebbly and . . . SLICK . . . which adds to the lift grip difficulty. Teflon is a slick surface. It is NOT grippy despite the pebbly finish. My last mouse had rigged rubber grippy surfaces for lifting that were awesome. With the gentlest of grips I could live and move that mouse. This one . . . not happening. With the same gentle grip that would allow my previous mouse to be lifted and moved this one shifts and slides in my hand. Issue 3: The thumb buttons. No. Just no. Theyre small, too close together and not tactilely distinct. For my short little thumb (wide hands, short digits) its just not a good thing. My thumb joint hurt just playing through one round of Bitterfrost. And finally . . . the software comes on a weird little flash drive that comes as part of a credit card sized piece of plastic. After much searching online I finally figured out that bit that says press here IS the flash drive. It snaps OUT of the surrounding plastic. Weirdest thing Ive ever seen. Completely insufficient instruction. So, except for the very nice button click, this is a one-star mouse. Shape and surface texture/material, button placement, number of buttons and their location . . . completely one star. UPDATE: UTechSmart contacted me offering me $ for a new mouse. Ive already purchased a mouse that works adequately but the gesture is appreciated. Heres my response. When giving meaningful feedback theres always a desire to placate and pacify. I want to avoid both of those tendencies. I dont think anything but the absolute truth will help UTechSmart improve this product. I think mouse designers have a difficult problem, designing a mouse to suit everyone. Its simply not possible for one mouse to do every job because not everyone uses their mouse in the same way and the range of people shapes are wildly varied. I have wide hand and short fingers. My primary mouse use is to play Guild Wars 2. My game-play style is closer to pvp than to anything open world. I also program (php/mysql). Whatever I get that works for gaming will work for programming. A plain two/three button mouse is perfectly adequate for programming but will not work for gaming. In the search for the perfect mouse, Ive tried quite a few. Ive read hundreds of reviews. I have only found one mouse that gets close to satisfying my needs for a gaming mouse, the Anker Gaming Mouse (discontinued). I need a mouse that has convenient and easy to use buttons in numbers sufficient to assign a button to every available movement. This does not evenly remotely apply to the UTechSmart. The number of buttons is sufficient but the placement is not suited to fast and accurate use. The thumb button locations would require months of training to get all the button locations coded into muscle memory. They are small and closely packed and I will freely admit I dont have the necessary level of patience assuming I could reach all the buttons with my short little thumb. It appears to be best suited to use with technical software, drawing, architecture and the like. The Anker wasnt a perfect mouse. It had its problems. It had one button I could not reach without repositioning my hand and awkwardly reaching for it (little finger side of the mouse). I put this button on ignore. In addition to the standard roll forward/backward, it had a click (down) function and a left and right press I assigned to strafe. This combo button could not take any rough handling. I trashed this button on my first Anker and knew it had to be treated gently on my replacement Anker. The three thumb buttons, separated into a triangle, allowed for jump (outside side of thumb), forward and backward. This configuration was PERFECT allowing me to run forward and backward while jumping. Whether a person had long or short fingers, the buttons were universally accessible. I now have a RedDragon M801. It isnt as good as the Anker mouse but its not too horribly far behind. It has three fewer buttons so in addition to losing the unused button Ive lost right and left strafe. The three thumb buttons are not as usefully placed though they have adequately textured making it easy to tell them apart by feel. Because they are in a line I have to stretch awkwardly to reach them all comfortably. I am not yet at the point where pressing each one is embedded in muscle memory but after four weeks Im very close. This button placement will always be more awkward to use. Ano

So my first impression looking at the box made me worried. It looked like a typical walmart offbrand design with bold arial font and red lettering like it was supposed to be some cool hi-tech product you could compare to Razer or Logitech. It didnt fool me in the least, and my heart sank because I depend on amount of reviews + star rating, and I know Amazon has some funny tricks when it comes to products being rated highly despite poor quality products. I opened the box, and immediately set the thing on my lap and - despite odd looks from my friend who was there - started clicking the buttons and getting a feel for them. From the get go, I was satisfied with the click feel and its responsiveness, the location of the buttons, and (most importantly) the size of the mouse. I have large hands, so Im not sure where some reviews are coming from by saying large hands arent recommended, but the mouse fit perfectly without me resorting to an uncomfortable grip. I wasnt quite convinced yet, so I plugged the puppy in and popped the CD in to install the driver (and eventually update it online). If youre a gamer, or anyone who has worked on a computer for at least a year, the software was easy to set up and understand. You should know how to unzip files, install basic programs, set your DPI, navigate basic menus, and understand basic terminology. Its not rocket science, and therefore the setup was a breeze. Its a basic program with little to question, and Ive already got it pulsating red like a black gaming setup should (in my opinion, heheh). I was worried the number pressing might be a problem for my big thumb. Its... not perfect, mainly because of my thumb, but with enough practice I have no doubt it should be as easy as any other mouse Ive had, and this is coming from a Logitech fanboy. Yes, yes, Razer is fine too, but for the price and the quality I cant deny that this is a quality mouse. The texture on the left and right click is satisfying as it allows for a good grip despite sweaty hands, and the fire button just to the left of the left click makes it an easy reach in case you want to program it as an ultimate ability in gaming (or an undo button in graphic design, for instance). Programming buttons, by the way, is very easily customizable, and with enough options to choose from Im satisfied that any need I have to satisfy can be done with this mouse. Even the DPI arrow buttons under the scroll wheel can be remapped, which is great when youre like me and like to have as many buttons mapped to your mouse as possible for ease of use. As far as the entire shape goes, its comfortable for my large hands and the thumb rest is a nice touch so youre not rubbing your mouse pad all the time. On the opposite side, theres a protrusion that allows you to rest your ring finger there so it allows you to have a stronger grip on the mouse itself, which should be an important feature in any gaming mouse. Overall, this mouse is one of the better mouses Ive had the pleasure of using. The weights came already installed and, again, as a big handed fellow, I like the heavier weight so it has some give to it. The material its made out of has a nice tactile feel so that it wont slip out of your grip, and while having color pulsating from the buttons isnt a necessary aspect to a gaming mouse, its still pretty cool. I write this review having had my heart drop with worry that this mouse wasnt going to cut it and Id have to return it like some cheap knockoff, but Im pleasantly surprised. The drivers were easy to find, and I have no doubt if I needed customer service to help out they would. I feel like I invested well into a cheap but quality product. Dont take my word for it though, if youre a gamer with a hunger to customize macros and assign functions to your mouse (or even a graphic designer who hates memorizing hotkeys) you should try it out yourself! You wont be disappointed.

I have the wired version and love it. Im not a gamer though. The black speckled finish wore off with my old wired version so I hope this one is different. I had to scrub it off with a toothbrush. The wired one let you apply custom shortcuts to the DPI buttons which worked great for volume control, but the new software with this one doesnt let you change them. I couldnt get the old software to recognize the wireless version. You can connect to a 2nd machine by plugging in the USB-C charging cable. You just have to unplug the USB cable to reconnect to the machine with the wireless dongle

Update: I have purchased 3 of these gaming mice since 2004 and given away 2 of them as gifts. I still use my original gaming mouse 6-1/2 years later. I am now about to purchase 2 more. This time, however, I am buying the wireless version for portability. UtechSmart hit it out of the park with this thing! I bought my Venus MMO Gaming Mouse in December of 2014 and it has lasted me more than 5 years. This thing is built like a tank. None of the buttons have ever shown signs of wearing out, and the mouses RGB lighting has never failed. The sensor on the bottom of the mouse is still working just fine too. UtechSmart offers an 18 mo. Warranty from the date of purchase. If the company is dedicated to making a product this well, you wont need to worry about using it. Since 2014, I have purchased two more, one was given away as a gift, the other one has been waiting patiently in my closet to be unboxed and plugged in. This gaming mouse is anything but small and it fits perfectly in the palm of my hand. It has twelve buttons on the left side, perfectly positioned for your using your thumb. On top, next to the left mouse button is a small, bar-style button that protrudes just a bit from the top. It is extremely handy for cycling through in-game maps. The mapping software from UtechSmart makes the entire mouse completely unique as almost every button can be remapped and the list of options for each one is extensive. While this is a Gaming Mouse, the functionality of this thing in other programs is fantastic. On YouTube, the side buttons can be used to jump forward or backward in a video. Remapping the buttons for use in MS Office or Open Office programs allows for much faster productivity. The same goes for CAD programs and the like. Beyond the twelve side buttons and the top one next to the left-click are 2 buttons in the center of the mouse just behind the scrolling wheel... BTW, the wheel itself can be clicked like a regular button as well. The two buttons behind the wheel on the top of the mouse control the DPI Setting. I have never had to mess with this sensitivity setting but I can think of a few instances where it might come in handy. On the bottom of the mouse is a tiny, recessed button that changes the RGB color of the mouse depending on your taste or desire for everything in your setup to match. Even better yet, the included mapping software has a custom color palette included in it. Download and/or install (from the included flash drive) the UtechSmart Venus MMO Gaming Mouse Management Software. Go into the Color option and make the mouse glow in whatever color you desire. There are so many things to point out about this mouse that I know I am going to miss a few of them... This is a weighted mouse, designed for smoother control. The weight of the mouse can be adjusted by removing the weight pod underneath and either adding or removing the small weights that are included. Beyond the buttons, I have to mention the finger placement on this mouse was thought out in detail. This is a very comfortable tool to use for long periods of time. There is a platform on the left side for your thumb to rest on. Featured on the right side of the mouse is a small indent for your third (ring) finger to rest comfortably. While your pinky rests next to the mouse body on the surface of the mousepad. Unfortunately, I cannot compare this to any other gaming mouse. it is the only one I have used for the last 6+ years.

Good Mouse. Sturdy quality, built well. Ive had for awhile and no problems.

I received this mouse about a week ago and have been using it every day since then. Here are my thoughts on this very budget-friendly device: Honestly, I see people making up excuses that this mouse is good for the price. Even if this mouse was worth 50 dollars, itd still be a fair price. -Packaging: The mouse came in simple, straight-forward packaging. A picture of the product on the front, accompanied by flames surrounding the mouse. I honestly thought it was cute, how they still tried to make a good impression while still spending most of the money on the mouse and not the packaging(you throw that away, anyway). The package has a door-like opening, so you remove the little circle tape and open it. There, you see the mouse behind a sheet of plastic. I forgot how, but I think you then slide out the bottom cardboard and remove the mouse and everything else. The braided cable comes tied up with a velcro strap, a nice touch in case you needed to keep it tied up on-the-go. Just a little something I wanted to add: it was cute how they taped the magnets into the box to keep the little door closed. Nothing wrong about saving money, and it was a little funny tbh. -Mouse: Okay, let me just say that the mouse is amazing. The 16400 DPI is obviously overkill unless you like to get freaky at low sensitivity in games. The mouse is, I think, designed for people with a palm grip, which was no problem for me since thats my regular grip. Either way, the shape of the mouse could get anyone used to the palm grip quite easily. If you do stick with the claw grip, though, Im afraid youre going to be a little more uncomfortable using the rapid-fire button. Speaking of which, this button is more useful than I first thought it would be. You can set it to click as many times as you want, and its got a few speed options. Ive used it a lot more than I thought I would, and its very easy to click. However, if youre not used to mouses like these, youll get confused at first. When I started using the mouse, I would position my finger over the quick-fire on purpose, but for some reason this led me to trying to click the very much appreciated index finger rest, which is very comfortable. Of course, this was just me defeating old habits and in 3 days time, the mouse buttons positions came naturally to me. Still waiting for a good opportunity to use the side buttons but theyre not a nuisance if you dont use them. The rest at the bottom is appreciated and I actually rest my thumb against the buttons thanks to their angling(which fits the thumbs own form). Also, the mouse has a nice texture to it. Almost like rubberized plastic. It feels nice :) In the packaging, they also included replacement TEFLON pads from 3M, which is appreciated. Or maybe theyre the actual TEFLON pads, who knows. The mouse is fine so, yeah. The weight tuning is pretty straight forward. You flip the mouse over, turn the little compartment, and then pop the tray out. I have to say, Im a heavy mouse guy, but I still thought that having all the weights in was a little too much. On the other hand, removing all the weights made the mouse very, very light. You also get a nice storage tray for the weights youre not using, so thats always a plus. Your macros and everything are saved onto the mouse itself, and you can switch through 5 different profiles, each with its own light color, macro setup, and DPI levels, via a button at the bottom of the mouse. This means you wont be needing software to use the mouse on a new computer unless you want to edit these profiles. The DPI buttons are very accessible to the point where you can switch mid-game. Lighting was pretty straight-forward. You can pick out preset colors or choose your own via a hex color thing. Ive seen people have a different color for the scroll wheel than for the rest of the mouse, but Im not interested in knowing how this works. The lighting isnt a nuisance. You can set to breathing or static, and neither gets annoying(you have your hands covering them the whole time, anyway). The mouse was made to impress, though, hence the cool little lights at the front. Theyre definitely made to be shown off in LAN parties or anywhere where other people can see your mouse. Otherwise youd have to stick your face in front of your mouse to see it. They do light up very nicely and theres no crappy lighting. -Software: Installation was fairly easy and fast. They included a little installation disc but I just downloaded the software from their website. It was pretty easy to find. I see people saying the software is clunky, but honestly, its just like the majority of peripheral software out there minus the over-the-top design schemes. I mean, the software is pretty basic so you can edit your settings faster. You click on the profile you want to edit(the profiles are all at the bottom, numbered), and the settings instantly change to that profile. You have three useful tabs at the top. General, DPI, and Lighting. Both are very straight forward and simple to use. General contains button settings. Macros, quick-fire, right and left clicks, scroll wheel. All of that is edited through there. You can change your scroll speed, polling rate, double-click speed, pointer speed, and acceleration if youre into that. In the DPI section youll find, surprisingly, the DPI settings. Its very straight forward. It lists each DPI level, from 1-5. You can adjust both the X and Y axis of each DPI level, in case you want to move faster sideways than vertically or the other way around. However, it brings the option to keep X and Y locked so they move parallel to each other. You can set your DPI to a minimum of 50, in case you want to use an entire desk to scroll through half your screen(I just tested this and now idk what my old DPI setting was ffs). Anyway, I attached a screenshot so you can see what this looks like. Now, the lighting section looks pretty straight forward. You can choose the breathing speed(or dont), brightness, and lighting color. Each profile can have a different color. I forgot to add this up by the mouse section, but I saw people complaining about Avago sensors and Omron switches. The Avago sensor in this thing is perfectly fine, with no acceleration(unless you set it up yourself in the software). It doesnt move on its own and if it does, run your anti-virus because thats not the mouse. I also dont see why people complain about Omron switches. Theyre used in almost every mouse youll ever own, and theres nothing wrong with them. Theyre not loud, but theyre not quiet so you still get some feedback. Someone also said that even if they rest their finger on the mouse, theyll accidentally click? I asked someone with very, very big and thick hands to use the mouse and they laid their hands on the mouse to test this, and they didnt click. I also saw in another review that the scroll wheel apparently was too loose? The scroll wheel has some arrow heads and is made out of rubber(with plastic on the sides for the lighting). Its tactile enough to let you know that you scrolled it, and if you want to scroll little by little, the resistance is more than enough to stop you. Welp, I think thats all. If I dont update this anymore after a while, it means its still working perfectly fine.
