MICROSOFT Surface Accessories MICROSOFT Surface ARC Mouse - Mouse - Optical - 2 Buttons - Wireless - Bluetooth 4.1 - ICE Blue - Commercial

UPDATED REVIEW: While this worked fine for a long while, the recent Software Update yesterday seemed to break compatibility. I'm on a MacBook Air from Mid-2012 and I've tried everything to get it to work, but I just can't pair it. It still pairs with my husband's Mid-2013 MacBook Air, although it only works on the computer during the time of that initial pairing... and doesn't recognize the device after anything is turned off or goes to sleep.Big bummer, as this is my favorite mouse of all time and I prefer Bluetooth compatibility over occupying one of my USB ports all the time.PREVIOUS REVIEW

I highly recommend getting this mouse if you have a Surface Pro 3. It's as simple as putting the batteries in, clicking "Pair" and you're good to go. What a beautiful concept of not having to deal with clicking a bunch of button combinations and then having to input a key code etc. etc. The quality of this mouse is just about unsurpassed for a lower price than anywhere else I've seen. Plus this is the only mouse that I've bought so far that actually works with the Surface Pro 3. Some had a better design or more bells and whistles but didn't work at all. The ability to use it without a USB dong

There's a lot to love about this mouse! The portability is unbeatable; I pack it in the outside pocket of a sleeve for my Surface Pro 3, and it slides right in without the unsightly bulges. Can't do that with my Logitech Anywhere MX! In use, I find the shape comfortable to use even for 8 hour workdays. Bluetooth pairing has been flawless with my Surface, though I couldn't get an old Lenovo T520 to see it. The battery life of the AAA's is great so far; I use it on the road a couple days a week and the original batteries are still going strong 3 months in. And aesthetically it sure looks cool; c

This mouse works beautifully with the Surface Pro 3. It does have an electronic “wheel” that may be used to scroll horizontal on the Start page of Windows 8, and vertical on most other pages. I recommend downloading the “ArcTouch Bluetooth Mouse” app from the Window’s store. [search Arctouch (one word, no space). The app will allow you to turn off the sound of the clicking sound of this wheel, that could be irritating to others in a library, etc.The mouse is perfect for Starbucks, where a table is handy.The mouse is very portable. Fits nicely into any bag, smaller than a cell phone and FLAT wh

For years I have been dedicated to using one of two mouse devices: Whatever touchpad my portable Mac came with, and a Logitech Wireless Trackball M570 for secondary/non-Mac use. The truth is, however, the M570 stayed where it was because I didn't like carrying it around. It was either at home, or at the office. (Still love it, though.)The Arc Touch Surface is my new favorite (secondary) mouse device. It folds flat, is comfortable to use and, now, can go with me where ever I go. I'm not a fan of using shared office keyboards or mice for sanitary reasons. It's a no-brainer to keep the Surface in

A lot of people are going to see this mouse as a gimmicky accessory as part of a "balanced breakfast" of Surface accessories. I gotta admit, the Surface Pro series of Windows tablets has been fantastic. Their keyboard covers are also fantastic; at least the Surface Pro 2's typing portion of the keyboard was fantastic, but they improved on the touchpad on future models.- Anyway the arc mouse is useful because it bends straight to turn off, bends curved to turn on, and it locks into place when you do so and the laser turns on. It connects almost immediately for the first time, and seems to pair

The mouse is very very thin. I have a Surface Pro 2 and use the Snugg Leather Case. It will fit in the small lid the snugg case has to store paper or small things at the back without any problems. At first it felt weird because I am used to a big bulky Desktop Mouse but in minutes I got used to the arc Mouse. The touch wheel responds well and if you click the very top and bottom part of it, it will go to the end of top of a page (hardly anybody talks about this feature) which I find pretty handy. It is perfect for notebooks, laptops and is perfect for all the Surface models, because in additio

There are few things I hate worse than buying something JUST because it has high reviews, just to find out it isn't worth the box it came in. I bought this mouse for an iMac. I noticed some reviews that said it worked fine on Macs. Those postings must have been made by microsoft employees, not Mac users, lol. I spent almost an hour just trying to get it to pair with my late 2012 iMac. After it finally did, I was disappointed in it's performance within literally the first minute of using it.An Apple Magic Mouse (and many other mice) can be scrolled sideways and has MANY other things that it can
