and the shape feels more natural to me
How is the grip?
The AmazonBasics 3-Button mouse connects to and works flawlessly with a Mac out of the box. The texture is very nice, a silky feel you don't expect from plastics. Tracking across the screen is super fast, so much so that I had to turn down tracking speed in my settings. For years I've been using the standardApple Optical Mouse, which works fine for my purposes and feels great. We have had an issue with a few over the years that have developed a fault, however: when you lift the mouse off the mouse pad (or whatever surface you're using) the cursor starts jumping around on the screen. There's no telling, of course, whether the AmazonBasics mouse will develop a similar defect after extensive use. I do prefer the Apple mouse for two reasons: it's a bit heavier, and the shape feels more natural to me. I'm sure that it wouldn't take long to get used to the feel of the Amazon mouse, however. As with theAmazonBasics Wired KeyboardI recently reviewed, Amazon's mouse offers a decent to Apple's more expensive product.
