Straightforward Setup and Use
This mouse is as advertised: a basic, 3-button wired mouse. It features the standard left and right clicks, a scroll wheel, and a wired USB connection. Setting it up is a breeze - simply plug it into your USB port, and you're ready to go. No drivers or software installation required.
Perfect for Everyday Tasks and Budget-Conscious Gamers
The 1000 DPI optical tracking provides smooth cursor control, making it sufficient for everyday computer tasks like browsing, emailing, and navigating documents. It's a great option for someone who needs a simple, reliable mouse for basic use.
One surprising perk? My grandson, a passionate but budget-conscious gamer, has actually been using one of these mice for his gaming sessions. While it obviously lacks the fancy features of a high-end gaming mouse, he reports that it performs surprisingly well for casual gaming, especially considering the price point.
Solid Value for Everyday Use
Overall, the AmazonBasics 3-Button Wired USB Mouse is a solid value for everyday computer use. It's particularly attractive for those looking for a simple, affordable option or even a backup mouse. Gamers on a tight budget might also find it surprisingly functional for casual gaming.
Just keep in mind that this is a basic mouse with a wired connection. If you're looking for a wireless mouse with extra buttons and programmable features, this might not be the best choice for you.

Let's cut to the chase: it's ultralight, making you wonder if Amazon discovered anti-gravity tech. Yet, it feels as reliable as that old family wagon, boasting a solid one-piece construction that resonates with a reassuring solidity at every tap. The clicks? They're the muted thuds of determination, ensuring you can work through nap times without waking the baby. And the scroll wheel, with its gentle rumbles, feels like cruising down the information highway with the top down.
I've plugged this trooper into every computer in the house, tested it on desks, different pads, and even the kitchen counter – it just works. The cable's as steadfast as your commitment to Sunday family brunch, and the glide pads beneath? They ensure smooth sailing across many different landscapes, minimal yet mighty.
"Made in China," this mouse doesn't shy away from its roots, delivering an affordable, no-compromise tool that checks every box. Medium-sized for universal fit, it's the Goldilocks of mice - not too big, not too small, just right for the bulk of the population.
Why did I buy a case of 30? Because when you find something that works this well at keeping the daily grind moving, and need an affordable mouse this is it! It's the workhorse mouse that metaphorically "brings home the bacon," fueling your day without draining the wallet.
Initial look: for the huge selection of mouse out there this does not fall short for what you pay and what you get with the soft touch paint solid construction, high-quality wiring, good plug pads, decent laser, tracking, muted, click buttons muted, scroll wheel, and good size makes it a good purchase. Hope this is helpful in your decision. More updates to follow.
