The directions are very brief, very easy to follow, and are printed on the inside of the package. To set it up, it takes a couple of minutes to "pair" it to the computer. You just press a button on the mouse and acknowledge it on the computer, and you're done.
I got it for a Win 10 laptop/tablet, and the USB-C ports are too close together to hold both the power supply and a wi-fi mouse receiver. I bought a wi-fi mouse, USB-C adapter, and a small hub to make it all work. Turns out, USB-3 interferes with wi-fi, and the mouse action was jerky. With this mouse you don't have to fuss with any of that stuff.
==========================
UPDATE: It turns out that Bluetooth uses the same frequency band with USB-3 AND 2.4 GHz wi-fi (B and G bands). In my case it worked for several months and then, suddenly it quit working. Bluetooth would instantly disconnect the mouse when I started a wi-fi connection. The computer manufacturer replaced the Bluetooth receiver, with no effect. The problem occurred with that computer running Windows 10 on any 2.4 GHz wireless network, but not with Linux or with any other computer. The only common denominator is the Windows Bluetooth driver for that computer, and I think that's probably the problem.
From reviews of other Bluetooth mice, every review I found showed that a minority of people report connection problems--regardless of the price of the mouse. The problem appears to be Bluetooth itself, since it shares frequencies with other wireless standards. The software is supposed to handle the shared frequencies without problem, but it may not be iron-clad.
I am now using the mouse with another computer, and it still works flawlessly. I leave it on all the time, but the batteries still last for months and months.
durability has been great so far - almost 1 year. my only complaint is that it's powered by 2 AA batteries, which make it a bit heavy. i'd rather have a little less battery and have to change them more often. still, i'm very pleased.
Size is about 3 1/2 by 2 1/4 by 1 1/4 inches; good for larger hands. good battery life (2 AA). weighty. works on most surfaces (I use it on fuzzy arm of my chair.)
No noticeable wake-up lag when using with Windows. Works with W8,W10 and Android tablets. No extraneous buttons on the sides; they are clean. Thumbwheel has a light, satisfactory detent feel.
Reliable bluetooth connection & easy to connect.
After 3 years, I have had to trim the ends of the back, bottom plastic glide, as they were curling a bit.
Wish they offered more colors. I've dropped it on the carpet many times, and the top cover always pops off. I might ask for a little stronger "hold" in that respect.
Overall the best I've found, out of many, in a moderate price range for bluetooth mice. The top priority for me has been the lack of sleep - wake delay.
It may also be important to note that I had no idea my M305 was such a pricy (ie. higher quality) mouse since it was given to me when I was in high school. So maybe that also has something to do with my perspective of the loudness of this M557.
Overall, great mouse but a little loud.
However, other peripherals can interfere with its functioning.
Top reviews from other countries
There is an audible click when you press the left or right buttons. It does not bother me but it could be intrusive in heavy use.
funciona con bluetooth y esto me permite tener libres los puertos USB.
Despite all that it worked great. I was using it with a surface pro and the bluetooth connection was solid every time. It's very responsive and the sensitivity takes some getting used to, but overall a great mouse.
The batteries are supposed to last for an entire year due to the low power consumption of the device, but I probably changed the batteries at least two times in that year and half. So with constant daily use you're not quite getting a year out of the batteries. However, not having to change any batteries for months is really great. I would love a model with a built in rechargeable battery that you would only need to charge once every few months.
Recently for whatever reason it suddenly stopped working altogether. Now with that said, I loved it so much I just bought another one and I'm still giving it 5 stars.
