This mouse performs exactly as it should. Easily connects to laptop and works right out the box. The package arrived on time and as soon as it arrived my teenage son put this mouse through the wringer. He is using the mouse for school and for gaming. It has accomplished both tasks.

It’s a mouse; pretty straightforward – it works fine. It has a nice soft click that is very satisfying.

I’m not a gamer, and I prefer the reliability and lack of a batter of a wired mouse to wireless ones. These mice are very reasonably priced and they work perfectly. I have nothing bad to say about them.

I like that it plugs in, (no batteries to deal with.) It really works great so far. It rolls well, glides well, fits in my hand well. The roller works nice and quietly, and doesn’t have that “clicking-like” feel.

This mouse is your basic mouse that has a wire and plugs in via a USB. It is durable and easy to connect. This is not a wireless mouse. The scroll wheel works fine. I have had no issues.

I needed a wired mouse to make design editing easier on my Embroidery/Sewing machine. The cord is nice and long which helps keep me less restricted in my work space. The price was right and it works exactly as I expected. Nothing fancy about this mouse which is exactly what I wanted.

I recently purchased three of the Amazon Basics 3-Button Wired USB Mouse in black. While I wasn’t expecting any bells and whistles with this budget-friendly option, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by its functionality and performance. I use it for my lap top computer because I like the ease of using a mouse compared to finger application.Straightforward Setup and UseThis mouse is as advertised: a basic, 3-button wired mouse. It features the standard left and right clicks, a scroll wheel, and a wired USB connection. Setting it up is a breeze – simply plug it into your USB port, and you’re ready to go. No drivers or software installation required.Perfect for Everyday Tasks and Budget-Conscious GamersThe 1000 DPI optical tracking provides smooth cursor control, making it sufficient for everyday computer tasks like browsing, emailing, and navigating documents. It’s a great option for someone who needs a simple, reliable mouse for basic use.One surprising perk? My grandson, a passionate but budget-conscious gamer, has actually been using one of these mice for his gaming sessions. While it obviously lacks the fancy features of a high-end gaming mouse, he reports that it performs surprisingly well for casual gaming, especially considering the price point.Solid Value for Everyday UseOverall, the AmazonBasics 3-Button Wired USB Mouse is a solid value for everyday computer use. It’s particularly attractive for those looking for a simple, affordable option or even a backup mouse. Gamers on a tight budget might also find it surprisingly functional for casual gaming.Just keep in mind that this is a basic mouse with a wired connection. If you’re looking for a wireless mouse with extra buttons and programmable features, this might not be the best choice for you. But if you need a simple, reliable mouse at a great price, the Amazon Basics 3-Button Wired USB Mouse definitely fits the bill.

I love this mouse! The texture feels great in the hand. It is lightweight and easy to maneuver, the cord is long enough to reach whenever I need it to go. It works very well, always easy to find the curser. Very happy with this purchase!

I am picky about mouses, yet I need just a simple mouse. It needs to fit the hand comfortably and just do the work. I had what I thought a very good mouse before, but after it died I found this one. And man, this one is GREAT. I mean, it’s strange to be excited about a piece of tech that should just be invisible, but I am honestly so happy about it… after all I work with it every day. I didn’t know it could be so silent, but now I also love it. I got it like a month and a half ago and I can’t imagine other mouse than Amazon Basics. Great job Amazon!

I ordered it and it was here the next day! Changed my life to have a mouse that works! The one I had you had to press ten times before it would work! It was so frustrating and this one works like a charm!

I specifically wanted a basic, “classic-style” mouse instead of a bulky one with extra buttons. It does feel slightly small to me, but that could be because I haven’t had a classic mouse in years. If you’re looking for a basic mouse, I think that this is a good option and very fairly priced. I think I’ll be buying another one to keep in my laptop case so that I never forget it at home.

This is doing the trick as I wait to purchase a new laptop, since mine is dying a slow death–no trackpad; dying keyboard. She’s old and has had a good life. For $6, worth the investment while I make a choice.

5 feet cord, has been plugged to a computer dedicated to college work and clicking daily quests on emulated android games.It is unfair to give a gaming rating for a non gaming mouse so I’ll say 3/5 for the sheer durability granted I never rage smashed it.

Just your basic budget mouse for old fashioned mouse lovers like me. Works fine.This size and style has always fit my small hand well. I was glad to see these are still made, since I haven’t gone completely wireless. (I also don’t like the way some wireless tech reacts to interference and isn’t always reliable).The wire was very stiff at first but it seems to be fine now. All components work smoothly and consistently.

I have small hands so this mouse is just what I need for browsing online. Doesn’t have to be fancy or anything like that, since I’m not using it for gaming. Easy to take with me on the go too, though may want to make sure it doesn’t get crushed under heavy books/laptops (can’t say how sturdy it is).

Great value for the price. You won’t beat it.I use this mouse with my extra laptop. It’s not my everyday mouse. My everyday mouse on my desktop is a Logitech and has side-buttons to go forward or backward in an internet browser. This Amazon mouse lacks this feature and I find myself missing it when I’m using the laptop.Otherwise, a great mouse. Works perfectly.

Bought this mouse on a whim. However, was drawn to purchase it because it carried the Amazon Basics brand. I figured it should have a minimum level of quality control, at least. Lo and behold, I was more than pleasantly surprised. Surprised enough to write a review. The price was less than $10.00 and it has a nice soft “silicone” like texture to it that’s comfortable to hold. The optical movement is smooth and speedy with no perceptible lag.I do a lot of work at my computer, which is why my current touch pad is on the fritz. I’m literally on the precipice of buying a new laptop because I put it through its paces. This mouse is great. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to use it with my future laptop, because so many do not have the old usb and come standard with USB-C. Still, great purchase, and happy Amazon didn’t cheap out on this little accessory! It honestly will make me consider seeking out Amazon Basics / branded items before going with, likely, low quality FBA alternatives.Like I said, I do a lot of business online. I know what “FBA” is. Often, it’s sellers looking to make a quick buck with high turnaround with little concern about the customer experience. I’m sure someone reading this would think I sound like a shill. Truthfully, I’m just a consumer who wants STANDARDs and not whether your Amazon on or a small business. Tired of feeling “scammed” just so someone could make easy money.

ee buttons counting the mouse wheel. Delivered in a cardboard box with minimal plastic. No clamshell packaging with maybe 98% of the package being put in recycle bin.

ouple years. Really well functioning and low-cost mouse! I got two of them at different times. The only drawback is that after a couple of years (around 2, I noticed it a lot) they get all gooey, like the exterior is deteriorating. You can kinda scrape the sticky stuff off but it comes back. So you generally will need to replace at that point. Still completely functional, just sticky and looks gross 🙂

onable price. The mouse works great, and the price was good. I don’t mind that it is corded as it keeps the mouse handy.

and plug it back in all the time. It’s functional and basic, but it stops working several times per day. I have to unplug and plug it back in several times per day to keep it working.

ought this because the pad on my laptop blows – though I bought it only a year ago.Since I did not want to buy a brand new laptop, I figured a handheld mouse would do the job..and it does!Though the USB port is on the left, I just taped the cord along the top of laptop and, though it looks low-class, it works…I am hoping the next laptop I get doesn’t fall apart for a few years, this hack will work in the meantime…

ease and feel of using this mouse. Don’t mind the cord because the cordless mouse in the past had frequency interference from something so this works wonderfully! Great price, too!

heap Price. I needed a mouse fast since mine broke. The price was great and it arrived super quickly! I wish it had a button for going back on websites but other than that, it’s perfect for a cheap laptop mouse.

nsive mouse. Was everything I needed. A good, basic, inexpensive mouse. Fits the description and was good for everything I needed it for. Plug it in and use straight out of the box. Liked the size and feel and basic black color.

I got this as a replacement for a previous Amazon Basics mouse that sustained water damage in an office flood. The old one still worked, but the buttons didn’t cooperate all the time. I liked the form factor of this one so I bought another. I’m not disappointed in any way. It just works like its supposed to.

small hand well. It’s a basic cord mouse, folks. It does basically what it’s supposed to do. Maybe not for people with larger hands though. I am a woman with smaller hands and I find it’s size perfect, so there’s that.

I don’t understand the appeal of the wireless mouse for which you need to have back up batteries on hand. This particular mouse is replacing the wireless one I had. It is absolutely fine.

ho ever built this mouse made it to perfection. It’s easy, Simple to hook up and it doesn’t give out like all the others. The thin cable that comes with it is not all bulky and unattractive. I Love This Mouse!!!

don’t need to add batteries. Not the best looking mouse but the most dependable. I use this mouse for my church computer which nobody cares how it looks like aesthetically. They just want a mouse that works all the time and this one does the job. I am very happy with the purchase. Not sure when it will break but when it does, I’m going to buy it again. Probably cheaper than batteries and less hassle to remember to charge the mouse all the time.

Lou Youngstrom –
use for the price. With a soft, almost rubbery plastic finish and a nice soft quiet click action of the buttons, this mouse exceeded my expectations for the price. Would recommend to anyone as a cheap, basic wired mouse.

e use this mouse a simple replacement or a “hey I need a mouse quick” type thing when we are moving the laptop around. It is not anything special but works for what it is intended.

ve the courser. I ordered a mouse for my computer. It arrived very late. I do not blame Amazon for they warned me it would be late because of environmental problems causing delays. Sense I have l have always got prompt service from them I do not hold it against them. But because of this I withheld one star from the rating because I am petty.But now we come to the meat of the problem. WhenI plug in the mouse it lights up but the courser douse nor move. I know it is the mouse because I used another mouse and the worked fine. I really do not blame the company or Amazon for this. I just got a bad mouse. It happens.
