My charge lasts for at least 2-3weeks at a time with 8-12 hours of use a day. You can also customise the scroll button functionality as needed.

You will not care about its handy recharge ability when you've been using it for... 5 minutes?? It is utterly appalling for use in design due to its weight and size being akin to moving a brick around the mouse mat. Added to this is the scroll wheel which is totally inaccurate and useless as a two functional control. Users of 3D applications such as Maya or 3Ds Max, will know how vital the middle scroll wheel is in its use as a button. Try using that wheel as a button and not being frustrated that you've zoomed in or out at the same time! Unbelievably stupid! Make no mistake - this is a total waste of money and probably only useful to a gamer... Thanks to this website and its totally ridiculous review, I bought this mouse and have regretted it ever since.

For this reason I'm a bit weary of purchasing another from the company but this mouse does look nice. It is a bit difficult finding a mouse that has a lot of buttons, is comfortable and compatible with macs. I notice this post is a couple of years old, was wondering if you are still using the mouse and if it's still working well? Thanks Jacob.

INCREDIBLE!! Both in features and toughness. I've dropped this thing multiple times coming out of coffee shops, in the snow even. Also the battery life is unreal. 2 AAA's have lasted 9 months of 6-9 hour days of use, and I never shut it off at home. The new version of the nano just came out with Dark Field technology, which allows for its use on clear glass surfaces. I own the Nano version of this mouse. INCREDIBLE!!

Wow! This thig has a 5600DPI Razer Precisionâ„¢ 3.5G Laser sensor!!! 1000Hz Ultrapollingâ„¢ / 1ms response rate which is like a wired mouse. Did I mention this was a wireless/wired mouse? I think mostly gamers would benefit from this mouse, but the precision is what matters to me. I'm not a gamer but this mouse really sounds and looks great. I just wanted to post this out there. I was also looking at the new SideWinder from Microsoft which also seems like a nice mouse. This might be a late post, but have you guys seen the Razer Mamba? Wow!

It has a 800 dpi which is worthless. If you want something that looks cool and has lots of buttons it might be for you. However if you are not just dicking around i would say go with something with at least 2000 - 3000 dpi... this mouse sucks, if you are designer don’t get it. It has a 800 dpi which is worthless.

The one that put the central wheel further as it is posible: the central finger, -hearts finger- is the larger, so for the ones who works with the three large fingers it is prioritary. The one that is plane and big enough as a hand resting on the table. ¿estás bromeando?, the best mouse is the one that don’t obligate us to force the hand, the one that you can change to your left hand when the right is tired (designers and architects, we work to many hours at the computer), so the one that is simetric.

It was a fantastic mouse for a very long time, but just recently it has started to become the biggest pain in my a$$ ever! The mouse skips constantly and has a terrible connection. I've heard this happens to a lot of people after about a year. This isn't something I'd expect from a $100 mouse. I have the MX Revolution and use it for design.

I use the Logitech LX3 - it's very light and comfortable with 1000 dpi tracking. The 1000 dpi gives you a smoother movement at higher speeds. The skinny design also lets you move over a finger giving your index finger a break from clicking.
