why have a battery when you can not have a battery instead

because the battery lets you be wireless which is better than having a wire in all scenarios

i have yet to find a wireless mouse that doesn't eventually briefly lose connection or whatever during a game. maybe i'm just unlucky i dunno but that poo poo's more glaring than mucking with cables imo

the ball is like ~2.5 inches diameter, it's pretty cool, plus you can pop it out and use it like one of those stress ball things

I bought the MX Master because of this thread and am returning it because it doesn't work over Bluetooth (whole point of buying it) without insane stuttering and there are loads of people with this problem even tho it probably Apple's problem. Back to Performance MX because it Actually Works.

I have one and it's the least ergonomic peripheral ever conceived and I really should just throw it away.
