M101 USB Wired Mouse Black (SPK7101_BK) Review

After spending several weeks putting the M101 USB Wired Mouse Black (SPK7101_BK) through its paces, I’m ready to share my comprehensive review. This budget-friendly wired mouse promises simplicity and functionality. Let’s see if it delivers.

The M101 boasts a straightforward design. Its ambidextrous form factor makes it suitable for both left and right-handed users. The plug-and-play functionality is a significant plus – simply plug it in, and it works. The optical tracking is responsive on most surfaces I tested, and the mechanical keys provide a satisfying click. While not brimming with advanced features, it offers solid basics.

In terms of performance, the M101 surprised me. The optical sensor provides accurate tracking, even on slightly textured surfaces. The responsiveness is excellent for everyday tasks such as browsing, document editing, and light gaming. While it might not be ideal for competitive gaming requiring high DPI settings, it’s perfectly adequate for casual use. I did notice a minor delay occasionally during periods of intense use, but this was infrequent and not particularly disruptive.

The buttons feel sturdy and provide good tactile feedback. There’s no noticeable button wobble or stickiness. The overall build quality feels solid for its price point; it shows no signs of wear even after extensive use. The lightweight design (95g) is comfortable for extended use, though some users might prefer a slightly heavier mouse.

Pros:

  • Affordable price
  • Ambidextrous design
  • Plug and play functionality
  • Responsive optical sensor
  • Comfortable for extended use
  • Durable build quality

Cons:

  • Occasional minor lag during intense use
  • Lacks advanced features (e.g., adjustable DPI)
  • Limited to wired connection

Overall, the M101 USB Wired Mouse Black (SPK7101_BK) is a reliable and affordable option for everyday computing. While it lacks some of the bells and whistles found in more expensive mice, its solid performance, comfortable design, and plug-and-play convenience make it a strong contender in its price range. I would wholeheartedly recommend this mouse to users who prioritize simplicity, functionality, and value for money. If you need a no-frills, dependable wired mouse, this is a great choice.
