Finding a decent quality mouse is not so easy at it seems. I have been looking for some time for a well made, reliable, rechargeable cordless mouse. This newly updated wireless gaming mouse from uhuru seemed a good bet to answer my needs.
The mouse arrived nicely presented in a well made mid-market box containing the mouse with the dongle, charging cable, and User guide. I include a scan of the well written and useful User Guide at the end of my unboxing video.
Build quality seems fine, all appears well made and robust with nothing looking likely to fail anytime soon. That said, the mouse does feel physically rather lightweight. I would have rather had a heavier and more substantial feeling model. Also, unlike many gaming mice, this one does not include any weights which can be used to balance the mouse and allow it to move more freely and easily on the desk. that said, I never found this a problem when using the mouse, which moves easily and smoothly on my desk.
As regards features, most if not all you will need is here. The mouse has five buttons: top left, top right, two on the left side and top roller wheel. It has a 5 level DPI selection between 800 and 10000 using the rear top button. On the underside can be found the On/Off switch and storage compartment for the USB dongle. I found the two left-side buttons to be
The mouse has an internal non-removable rechargeable Lithium Polymer battery which is good for up to 500 recharges. I found the USB connection to be a bit sensitive and had to take care to get it right. The mouse can be used with the supplied 59″ USB cable but is designed for cordless operation using the USB dongle. Just plug the dongle into a USB port on your computer and the two will pair instantly and be recognised by the computer. No problems here and it has worked flawlessly from the start with no drop-outs or delays. Other mice I have used in the past have annoyed with poor scrolling or missing keypresses, but no problems here. I was also pleased to see that the mouse bears the Uhuru brand and so can be easily identified when in the PC, another long-standing issue I have had in the past.
The mouse will work on Windows 10 straight from the box but for best results download and install the control app which allows you to configure the mouse buttons and defaults. Sadly, you cannot control the LED lighting of the mouse which is always on and cannot be turned off or set to a single colour. Another issue, fixable using the control app, is that I found myself continually pressing the rear left side button when moving the mouse and I was forced to disable it to retain my sanity.
In all this is an excellent general-purpose mouse which suits me well but serious gamers may be able to find better for the current £22.94 Amazon price.
