Ultra-thin, light, and compact, About half an inch thick when powered off, Easy to pair and use, Customizable buttons and scroll strip, Three-year warranty
Not quite as comfortable as most standard mice, Tapping scroll strip behavior finicky, No horizontal scrolling
Only if you're a traveler. If you don't like using a touch pad or poking a tablet screen with your finger, and you need something light and easy to carry around, the Arc Touch Bluetooth Mouse should serve you well. It's easy to pair, to use, and you don't...

A quality mouse, with a price tag to match. It's a shameless luxury, though - and there's no way of getting away from that. ...

Lays flat for easy storage and carrying; responsive touch scroll strip; tracks accurately on most surfaces
Micro receiver can easily be lost; buttons a bit stiff; no side buttons; poor ergonomics; pricey
Microsoft's Arc Touch is certainly an innovative mouse that mobile users will be attracted to, but, with this version at least, form has triumphed over function. Nonetheless, we hope the scroll strip finds its way into Microsoft's more traditional mouse d...
Bluetrack works on almost any surface, Compact design
Uncomfortable after a while, Expensive compared to alternatives, Folding ability isn't all that useful
The Arc Touch isn't a terrible effort from Microsoft, but we're not convinced that it's a necessary one. It's more expensive and less comfortable to use than its alternatives and though the folding mechanism is clever, it doesn't really offer a tangible b...

Like the Magic Mouse, this is slightly more attractive than practical...

Sliders a bit to sticky, Virtual scroll wheel is good quality but just not accurate enough, Clicking feels too short and too hard, No side buttons, Nowhere to rest the thumb
The Arc Touch Mouse isn't without its faults, but its slim, folding design is really quite impressive and it'll be handy for users who are often on the move....
