3. Auto-Sleep Function
To conserve battery life, the mouse features an auto-sleep function:
- If not used for more than one minute, the mouse enters a low-power sleep mode. Moving the mouse will wake it up.
- If not used for more than ten minutes, the mouse enters a deeper sleep mode. Clicking any button or using the scroll wheel will wake it up.
4. Ergonomic Design
The angled slope of the mouse is designed to keep your wrist in a neutral handshake position, which helps alleviate soft tissue compression and improves wrist and forearm posture. An extended lip provides support for your little finger, enabling smoother movements.
