Description

Thought of everything

A brilliant little gadget, the Minicute EZmouse5. The clever folks have even given you the option to weigh down the mouse by placing coins in the base. That’s going to come in handy. Can you picture it? “Damn! Forgot my lunch money. Oh, wait...”

Why the Minicute EZmouse5?

The Minicute is a very comprehensive ergonomic mouse. The shape of the mouse helps prevent discomfort by forcing your hand, wrist and arm into a natural position. This reduces strain on the muscles and allows you to work in a more relaxed manner. Furthermore, the detachable wrist rest prevents your hand from rubbing against the desk.

The mouse has four buttons arranged vertically on the right-hand side: the left and right mouse buttons, the scroll wheel, and the forward button. The scroll wheel features ribbed rubber, giving you plenty of grip whilst scrolling. On the left-hand side of the mouse is the backward button. This is positioned just above the thumb rest so it’s easy to reach.

There are two compartments on the underside of the mouse. One of these compartments is designed to hold the small nano USB receiver, so you won’t lose it when you take the mouse with you. The other compartment holds the two AAA batteries supplied.

The DPI button is also located on the underside. The DPI determines how quickly the cursor responds to your mouse movements. At a higher setting, the cursor responds more quickly. The mouse has 4 settings. Next to the button is an indicator that flashes once at 800, twice at 1200, three times at 1600 and four times at 2000 DPI.

This is what makes an ergonomic mouse so good

With a traditional mouse, your forearm is twisted. This puts strain on the muscles and, in the long term, leads to discomfort in the hand, wrist, arm and shoulder. The design of an ergonomic mouse is often angled. This forces your wrist and arm into a natural position, allowing you to work in a more relaxed manner.

Get the most out of it

You can also place coins in the same compartment as the batteries to weigh down the mouse. By making the mouse heavier, you gain better control and therefore greater precision. However, it is better to make the mouse as light as possible if, for example, you suffer from shoulder pain. The mouse is then lighter and therefore easier to use.

Don’t miss this either

Minicute has developed software that allows you to programme the buttons to your own preferences. You can find the download for this software under the ‘Downloads’ heading.
