Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of ASUS BX700 Bluetooth Laser Mouse - Grey
Customer Review: Great mouse - for a toddler
Summary: 1 Stars
I've been looking for a bluetooth mouse for a while. I love wireless mice to go with laptops. I have a Microsoft Elite mouse, and while it's not perfect, the size, shape, and button locations are great.
This mouse appeared to have a very similar form factor to the MS Elite mouse, but I couldn't find any dimensions to describe its size (update - there are dimensions now). Usually when (stupid) companies make teeny, tiny, ridiculously small mice, they brag about it so people that are looking for real products can avoid them. So given the absence of dimensions and the absence of "super small" and the absence of the other lame euphemism for grossly undersized products - "laptop mouse", I assumed (hoped) it was normal size.
It is not normal size. It is ridiculously small. It is laughably small. It is infuriatingly small. Am I the only person left on earth with normal sized hands? (Actually I have large hands, but normal sized stuff is tolerable.) Is the rest of the world like T-Rex with itsy bitsy digits relative to the size of their bodies? I haven't noticed that look in my fellow humans, yet every mouse maker on the planet (including microsoft now) seems to be making these microscopic products. Sure it will fit in your hand bag or pocket, but is that really the point? IT'S A HUMAN INTERFACE DEVICE. It's the thing that HUMANS use to interface with a computer. The whole point of the product category is to enable HUMANS, PEOPLE, normal average sized people, to use a computer. WTF is the point of making something so small that a normal person can literally barely grasp the damn thing, let alone comfortably use it throughout their workday?
I hate you ASUS BX700, and I hate all of your tiny little friends with their hand-cramping, non-ergonomic designs, and I hate the hordes of assclowns that created you hoping to exploit the perceived market niche that says everything labeled "laptop" and made smaller is better. Or in this case NOT labeled "laptop" but still unusably small.
Somebody wake me up when the current community of peripheral designers / product managers / product makers have all failed and died, and the new ones come in to take their place; new ones that understand that HUMANS use computers.
HUMAN. INTERFACE. DEVICE.
I hateyooguyssooomuch.
On the plus side, if you are a t-rex-human, the look, fit, and finish were great. The buttons and scroll wheel had excellent actuation feel and great mechanical feedback. It connected to the BT transceiver in a snap. I also liked the on/off switch, which is handy for laptop applications so you can toss it in your bag without killing the battery. All of which were moot given that it is to small to use. It would have made a nice keychain... not so good as a mouse. And by the way, I'm using past tense in this paragraph because I am returning it as fast as I can.
