Travelers or students using Windows 8 on a non-touch laptop will appreciate the compact Sculpt Mobile Mouse. Its center button helps make up for Win 8's lack of a Start menu button.

Dedicated Windows Start menu button; Installs quickly; Mini-transceiver packs into mouse for travel; Tilting scroll wheel quickly pans across Windows 8 Start tiles

Can't tweak pointer speed or snap-to in mouse-setup screen; Scroll-wheel stepping is harsh; Can't reconfigure Start menu button

Like many people, I love my iPad. In the beginning I was hesitant to make the jump, considerin

Good size for keyboard and individual keys; bluetooth; price

The best portable mouse should be as small as it is functional, and Microsoft's Sculpt Mobile Mouse is both. It doesn't have any particularly exciting features like our Editors' Choice, the Microsoft Touch Mouse , though it's cheaper by comparison.

The best portable mouse should be as small as it is functional, and Microsoft's Sculpt Mobile Mouse($17.25 at Amazon) is both. It doesn't have any particularly exciting features like our Editors' Choice, the Microsoft Touch Mouse, though it's cheaper by comparison. Its singular programmable button adds much-needed functionality, and its solid tracking and ambidextrous design make it perfect for use on the go. Design The Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Mouse is pretty small, smaller than the Logitech M515 Couch Mouse. It measures 3.8 by 2.2 by 1.6 inches (HWD), and is a lightweight 3 ounces. Its ambidextrous design is strikingly similar to the Logitech M305 Wireless Mouse, and its rounded back and palmrest are extremely comfortable. The top portion of the Sculpt Mobile is a glossy black plastic from front to back (There are also blue, pink, and red variants available.) The glossy surface makes the mouse prone to fingerprints. The two sides are gray with a hard rubbery texture. The ends c...

The Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Mouse is great for basic use, and feels great, but the dearth of Web browsing customization options is disappointing.

Not worth trouble to return. Will give away to someone else. I'll keep searching somewhere else.

When it comes to purchasing a wireless mouse, I always go with Microsoft. They have never let me down and have an average lifespan for me of about 2 years.

Within a week the USB got stuck in the base. I had to pry it out with tweezers, and now it gets stuck everytime I try to put it in the base and sometimes when I use it with my docking station.

Had a bit of a shipping glitch but was remedied quickly. Mouse works great, no complaints from step daughter

Works as advertised, 4 way tilt handy; Step daughter loves it

I bought this mouse to go with my small 11.6" Windows 8.1 laptop that I use for travel. The small size and the fact that it works on almost any surface makes it a great travel mouse. And now that I have the windows button, I don't know how I got by without it.

I purchased this mouse to replace an existing Microsoft USB that I slid over to my desktop which had a non "Microsoft" USB mouse and would no longer recognize it after upgrading it to Windows 10. THE NERVE! LOL! This mouse works just as well as the other Microsoft mouse I replaced.
