I originally bought this mouse to replace my 3 year-old IntelliMouse Explorer. I owned the Microsoft Explorer Mouse for a week before I replaced it with my old IntelliMouse.
Tracking with the Microsoft Explorer Mouse is very precise, but seems to be a bit fast, even when you adjust the settings in the Control Panel. The "Blue" glow when it resumes from standby, (usually after you take it off the charging station) is very nice and bright. The laser is blue as well, and performes on most surfaces including a short pile carpet. Highly reflective surfaces like glass or black onyx it will have a very hard time tracking.
As for the shape, very cumbersome to use. The left side of the mouse is normal like most of us are used to, the the right side is very hard to get used to. My pinky finger kept feeling like it was going to slip off/down and had a hard time gripping it. the mouse is designed to be used without a mousepad with a built-in wrist rest.
Battery life will last about a week or so, depending on how much you use it. if you are a haevy user, (5-9 hours a day) you will have to charge the battery about every 4 days. The mouse requires 1 battery which comes with it.
The scroll wheel has kind of a metalic feel to it, and it is very smooth. Most of the newer mice have a smooth scrooling feature. I did like it though and hope to see if more in newer products.
My wife loves her Microsoft Explorer Mouse, but I will stay with the good ole reliable 3 year-old IntelliMouse.Get more detail about Microsoft Explorer Mouse.
