Clarifications

Connection Type:

▪ Wireless USB receiver requires a full-size USB port. Computers with only USB C ports require an adapter (not included). Bluetooth does not require a USB port.

Programmability:

▪ A downloadable driver may be installed to change button functions, including assigning any Windows or Mac shortcut, such as copy, paste, close, etc. Wheel acceleration is also available.

Hand Size:

▪ A hand 7.0″ / 178 mm or smaller from the tip of the middle finger to the nearest crease on the wrist may be more comfortable with the small models.

Pointer Speed Switch:

▪ An easily accessible switch on the side of the mouse for changing pointer speed or sensitivity.

Pointer Speed Lights:

▪ Lights on top of the mouse that indicate the selected pointer speed from among four levels. They stay illuminated on the wired models, and are momentary on the wireless models.

Optical Wheel:

▪ Scroll wheels with optical technology that do not wear out, unlike the mechanical encoders common on other mice which tend to wear out.

▪ Evoluent wired mice have much longer cables than the industry standard 1.6 m / 5.25 ft for reaching under desks.

Quality Cable:

▪ Highly flexible but durable cable.

Battery Life:

▪ Based on alkaline battery with typical office use. The battery may last longer with less use or shorter with more intensive use.
