There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It uses a single AA battery which is easily accessible by an easily removable tab on the under-surface. Nearby, there is a small on/off button which activates a blue light, which will blink when put into bluetooth discover mode by simply holding down the "on" button for a short period. Once paired, the light glows continuously. Unfortunately, there is no illumination on the upper surface of the mouse to show that it is "on", so, trust me, it is easy to forget to turn it off; however, in the rest mode, fortunately little current is consumed so that failure to turn it off will impact relatively minimally on battery life.
I have used this mouse frequently for over a year, and it both works and looks just as new. It is easily one of the nicest of the standard mouses on the market. Although it is designed primarily for use with laptops, and is of easily portable size, it is absolutely rugged enough for use even with a workstation with bluetooth connectability.
I turned basic BT settings on and off, several times. I tried updating drivers, but they are up to date. I tried reboothing the PC. I tried switching over to our portable Surface tablet. I tried turning the mouse on/off as I removed/reinstalled the battery. I tried pairing with a different device, a Surface tablet, and the light on the mouse remained solid; it never showed up in the "ready to pair" list.
The mouse is obviously defective. I would return it, but can't; and this leads to my second gripe. The packaging is so hard to open that I nearly destroyed it while removing the mouse. So I threw out the packaging, and now I can't return the mouse.
I had this happen to another Microsoft mouse, a mini-mouse I bought specifically for the Surface, and the same thing happened, but at least that mouse lasted a few months, not 20 minutes.
For the techies who might read this, I checked the Event Viewer, and there were Event IDs 1010, 1011, and 1012, ""Driver User Mode crash". I checked out what to do with those IDs, and did not have any luck finding a usable solution.
I'm out of USB ports, so can't use a mouse that is hard wired or needs a dongle.
Piece of junk. Into the trash with it, and I eat the expense.
UPDATE 1/5/2023: I went back to this a couple of weeks after the original review, and it started working again. I'm not sure if the original problem was caused by the mouse or by something going haywire with my computer's bluetooth drivers. Since it now works fine on several other devices, and it actually has some great features, I'm upgrading it to five stars.
After using the mouse for a week, it seems to be more tiring to use than the Notebook Optical Mouse and causes some hand fatigue after extended use. This is due to the excessive height of the mouse shape where the "bulge" touches my hand. It causes my hand to be inclined slightly at the wrist in relation to my forearm, causing fatigue. I am using it on the arm of my La-Z-Boy, which may exacerbate the problem. I did not have this problem with the small wired Microsoft Notebook Optical Mouse. The Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 is unnecessarily taller than the Notebook Optical and slight taller than a full-sized wired Wheel Mouse Optical.
The Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 also has 2 extra buttons activated when pushing the wheel left or right. In Chrome, if a web page is wider than the window and requires a horizontal scrollbar, the buttons will scroll left or right. The behavior is nice and smooth. In Excel 2016, the buttons also scroll left and right, but the behavior is too sensitive, and it's too easy to scroll by multiple pages when you only want a one-page scroll. Also, the scroll sometimes skips over some columns or doesn't scroll enough, perhaps due to varying column widths. This is likely an Excel issue and not a fault of the mouse. It is unfortunate that you cannot reassign the left/right scroll-wheel buttons in the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center. After all, how often does someone really need to scroll left or right. I would rather have the buttons reassigned to switch between tabs in a browser.
The middle wheel-button of the Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 requires too much force to push it. It requires more force than the left or right mouse buttons, more than the left/right wheel buttons, and more than scrolling the wheel. I use the middle button often since I have it assigned to double-click, and the excessive force required for the middle wheel-button is annoying. It can cause an unintended wheel movement or unintended activation of the left/right wheel buttons, unless pressed carefully.
UPDATE - After 3 months I find the Bluetooth Mobile Mouse 3600 convenient and easy to use. Even though it is somewhat tall, it is more convenient than the corded Microsoft Notebook Optical Mouse. The extra height has not caused any problems (although less comfortable). The battery is still going strong after daily use, even though I often forget to turn off the mouse.
I do have a strong complaint about the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center. It does not detect the older wired Microsoft Notebook Optical Mouse or the Wheel Mouse Optical, even though they are both made by Microsoft. It reports "No supported device detected" and "Cannot detect a Microsoft device connected to your computer" (really?). This causes the cursor motion of those mice to be substantially less sensitive than the Bluetooth 3600, and I cannot assign the middle/wheel button of those mice. Microsoft IntelliPoint 8.2 was required to configure those corded mice and gets automatically uninstalled when installing Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center. It is unfortunate that Microsoft cannot support its older products, and maintain separate settings for different mice.

I would recommend it because it's Bluetooth (no need for USB receiver) and has a very good battery life (over a year).
