In the Box - desertcartBasics Wireless mouse with nano receiver - 2 AAA batteries - Quick start guide - Instruction manual Review: Mouse for laptop - Very good mouse for my laptop, lightweight, easy to set up, good grip, functional, really fast really worth money Review: Thinking about a Logitech mouse? This one is better and one sixth of the cost! - This is simply the best mouse I have used - priced at under £10 it's the best value item I've purchased in the last few years. Good points - instantly responsive - wheel to scroll up and down - wheel click (down or left) allows scrolling navigation in all directions: left, right, up, down and diagonally up and down - off button to save the battery - comfortable rounded fit to the hand - price Bad points - User manual doesn't mention the wheel click scrolling navigation at all (I found it by accident) I've used 20 or 30 different mice over the last 20 years. I moved to wireless mice (to avoid the frustration of the cable snagging) and then to laser mice (to avoid the frustration of a dusty, sticking ball). I've tried a variety of mice at various employers (as a contract programmer) and I ended up repeatedly buying Logitech for personal use because Logitech mice were consistently good ... that is, until this last year. In 2009, I bought a Logitech MX 1100 Cordless Laser Mouse (with a big USB receiver the size of a Sandisk Cruzer USB Memory Stick) and it was fine, scroll wheel and responsive. No problems. Until August last year when I lost the USB receiver. So I looked at the options and in September I bought a Logitech Cube Mouse (£60) from desertcart. It came with a Nano receiver and it's a great idea - but it isn't responsive enough - move the mouse and there is often (but not always) a delay before the cursor moves on the screen. It's just like going back to 1990 and trying to use a co-worker's mouse with a sticking, dirty, dusty ball underneath ... very frustrating. The right click is also very difficult to use. After a few days with a lot of frustration, I bought another mouse from desertcart, this time a Logitech MX Performance Mouse which seemed to be the latest version of my MX 1100. Unfortunately this had the same sticking-ball behaviour, not responsive enough and with a delay between moving the mouse and the cursor changing position on the screen. I was intending to return the Cube Mouse (because I assumed the MX Performance Mouse would work properly). But since both mice weren't responsive I didn't know whether it was my computer or the nano receiver that was the problem. So for the next 5 months I put up with an unresponsive 'sticking' mouse. Very, very, frustrating - particularly with graphics and CAD programs. Then in March I was browsing desertcart.co.uk looking at Chromebooks and I saw a "Frequently Bought Together" item referring to an "desertcartBasics Wireless Mouse with Nano Receiver Black" for £8.95. I thought it was worth a try, and as I wrote at the top it's the best mouse I've used, much better than any of the Logitech mice I've bought over the years (all in the price range £40-£60). So I am now going to return the two Logitech mice that I bought in September. There's nothing wrong with my computer and the desertcartBasics Nano Receiver works perfectly. I don't know where Logitech have gone wrong, but the wheel-click scroll-in-any-direction functionality of this desertcartBasics mouse is much better than the Logitech attempts to solve the problem of scrolling right and left. Now I just need to save up for the Chromebook :-) ## Features - Smooth, precise and affordable wireless optical 3-button mouse with USB-A nano receiver for laptop, desktop and netbook PCs - 2.4 GHz wireless (not Bluetooth) provides a powerful, reliable connection - Nano-receiver stays in your PC USB port or stows conveniently inside the wireless mouse when not in use (note: Receiver is stored within the mouse from production and needs to be removed once opened) - Works with Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, and 8 - 10.08 x 5.79 x 3.99 cm; 62.65 Grams ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005EJH6Z4 | | Antenna Location | Laptop | | Are Batteries Included? | Yes | | Are Batteries Required | Yes | | Best Sellers Rank | 758 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 36 in Mice | | Box Contents | Batteries | | Brand | Amazon Basics | | Brand Name | Amazon Basics | | Button Quantity | 3 | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Laptop, Personal Computer | | Connectivity technology | USB | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 71,132 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00841710104417 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Item Dimensions L x W | 10.2L x 5.8W centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.1 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Amazon Basics | | Manufacturer Part Number | M8126AB01 | | Minimum Required Operating System Version | Windows 8 | | Model Number | MGR0975 | | Mouse Maximum Sensitivity | 1000 Dots per Inch | | Movement Detection | Optical | | Movement detection technology | Optical | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Number of Batteries | 2 AAA batteries required.

It's tiny though, only sticks out by a cm at the most - maybe half. **Q: Would this work with a chromebook?** A: My chromebook developed an intermittent touchpad fault, so I decided to purchase this product. I can confirm the mouse works well with a chromebook. **Q: Is this mouse compatible with a MacBook Pro?** A: Specs say needs Win 10 or Mac OS 10. The USB receiver with the mouse requires a USB port. Some MacBook series do not have, including some Air and Pro. It is not Bluetooth. **Q: i bought this wireless mouse a few months ago and now i cant find the insruction manual to connect. Cant find any info anywhere to help me, any ideas** A: You will need 2 AAA batteries. Remove battery cover. Take out the Nano receiver and put it in to USB port on your computer. Insert the batteries over the plastic tab and replace cover. Then just look for the On/Connect switch on the bottom of the Mouse. When not in use turn the mouse OFF and store the Nano receiver back inside the battery compartment. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mouse for laptop *by R***A on 19 November 2025* Very good mouse for my laptop, lightweight, easy to set up, good grip, functional, really fast really worth money ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thinking about a Logitech mouse?
