I'd definitely prefer this long term considering for laptop users this can be pretty much usable in odd places. You don't even need to say much about it being a good model because even with just the looks of it, it's very obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 And if you notice you can fold it and turn it back flat too. which is kind of a good feature I suppose for packing purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the flexibility is out of this world. I don't really think that I have seen anything like that. I might be looking at getting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I think I saw it but never thought about something like that from microsoft. a lot of chinese experiments have similar designs but coming from microsoft looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can trust China 🇨🇳 very well when it comes to making exact designs and copies of other hardwares that trend in other countries. They are very good at that...

skyfire Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Haha yeah copy cat designs. and the thing is that often those are cheap. Take example of irfora which had chinese makers who copied this design. https://www.walmart.com/browse/office-supplies/computer-mouse-mouse-pads/irfora/1229749_1070964_132959_1008621_4842284/YnJhbmQ6SXJmb3Jh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been doing that for a very long time and it seems they are good at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I don't game on my laptop so I just use a normal HP wireless mouse. I'm pretty happy with it and have never really had any issues. It's this one if anyone is interested - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01FNRWFO8. Funny story, I actually got it for free from Amazon because my laptop had a touchpad issue. They sent it to me until I had a chance to get my touchpad repaired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think to get the price down their copying strategy and creating clones help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why they keep upgrading always!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Yes I think there are few of the new things coming up which would make it easier for you to upgrade but some of the copies make your experience not so worth it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 It's been that way for a while, with new upgrades, gets some old features that gave it the original identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Yeah I wonder how the near future the mouse would work. A lot of hardware dependency is reduced with flat arc mouse. Imagine in near future they could use some scan like rays to check the movement only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, as far as I can tell, anything is very much possible with the level of development and technology the world is going through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
