The BlueBuilt Tradendum Wireless Bluetooth Mouse is a great mouse for anyone who wants a little more than the standard mouse. It's light, has two thumb buttons and is nice and quiet. I quickly connect it to up to 3 devices via Bluetooth and switch devices with the push of a button. It's a bit too compact for my hand, but still comfortable to hold.
First impression
In the package I find exactly what I need: the mouse, a charging cable and a manual. When unpacking the mouse you immediately notice how light it is: only 75 grams. I therefore like to take this mouse with me to work or study, for example. Despite the light weight, the mouse feels sturdy. There is also a USB-A to USB-C charging cable in the box. This one has a good length. I think it's a big advantage that I don't need separate batteries for this mouse.
Connect quickly via bluetooth
The biggest plus of this mouse is the connection via bluetooth. I myself work on a MacBook that only has 2 USB-C ports. Most mice come with a USB-A receiver, so I'm quickly dependent on a docking station. The Tradendum with bluetooth connection is therefore ideal for me. I turn on the mouse and hold the round button above it until one of the 3 lights starts blinking. Then I select the mouse in my laptop's settings and the mouse is connected. So setting it up only takes a few seconds. I can connect the mouse to up to 3 devices, so I use it on my work laptop as well as on my desktop at home. You can quickly switch devices at the touch of a button. This is a feature that I see more often in high-end mice and that I am a big fan of. Glad this mouse has that too.
Easy navigation with the thumb buttons
Another feature that I personally find indispensable in a mouse are thumb buttons. This allows me to navigate the internet even faster and I can quickly go back a page if I accidentally click on the wrong one. The buttons click nicely and respond quickly. I also noticed that all buttons on this mouse are very quiet. It's nice when I use it in the office or in the lecture hall, because then no one will be bothered by my clicking. The scroll wheel also scrolls smoothly. With the button under the scroll wheel I set the dpi myself, so that my cursor always flies over the screen at my desired speed. The only small drawback to this mouse is the size. I usually use a somewhat larger mouse, which makes it feel relatively small. Still, this mouse is larger than the average compact mouse, so it's a good size for most people. All in all, I think the BlueBuilt Tradendum is a nice mouse with useful functions. As far as I'm concerned, it's suitable for anyone looking for a wireless Bluetooth mouse with that little bit extra. Whether you use it at work, at home or in the lecture hall: it's all possible. In addition, you get a 5-year guarantee, which is longer than the average study. That's a nice bonus.
