Guide Review - Kensington PocketMouse Mini

The Kensington PocketMouse Mini was very comfortable to use and it doesn't matter which hand you mouse with. The retractable cord was useful and nice to have when you don't have a lot of room and don't need extra cords dangling. The cord didn't snag or lose it's ability to retract even after long periods of use.

I liked this compact mouse and the functionality of it was no different than a full size mouse which isn't always found in compact mice. I was able to use it on just about any surface I ran into including my leg and it worked great.

The only downside to this mouse is that for those with large hands they may feel they might crush it, but it is very sturdy and durable.

It's a very handy mobile periphal and can save mobile workers a lot of frustration while working.
