The wireless age has brought forth many new products that relieve us of the ever present problems with wired devices. The BT510 Bluetooth® mini mouse by BlueTake is a new wireless mouse which offers a small sleek portable design that can be paired with any PC or laptop that boasts the reliable Bluetooth® wireless technology. It is portable and simple. Want to know more? Read on!

Introduction

The mini mouse comes in a plastic bubble, that is easy to open, and displays the mouse well. Everything is fit inside the box snuggly and securely. The USB adapter is also packaged well.

Looking over the mouse it is a very smooth and small device, there being no apparent 'button', for the right and left click pads are part of the shell. The scroll wheel is more towards the front of the mouse, rather than in the middle, for easy scrolling.

Opening the mouse is easy, by flipping it over and sliding up the lock tab, the top shell comes off to reveal the battery slots. The mouse uses regular batteries and comes with an optional USB connector, just in case your batteries run out. Just plug it in and use it just like any other mouse. This is an extremely handy feature, especially for laptop users. Its no good having your batteries go dead when your on the run. The only thing I would have liked to see here was a rechargeable battery set so that you could recharge through the USB plug in. But even so, it is still a nice setup.
