    Design and Looks

    The mouse’s exterior design is agronomic and very comfortable to operate. The mouse is composed of two separate parts. The upper cover and the main body of the mouse. The Upper surface is attached to the mouse’s main body with three magnets embedded inside the mouse.

    The mouse is powered with a small on/off switch on the device’s button next to the laser diode. To gain access to the battery and Nano receiver, stored in a small compartment, you will need to remove the upper cover by hand, which is straightforward. Another good idea by Xiaomi has added a back function button on the right-side mouse that is very comfortable and accessible using the thumb finger.
