Microsoft Comfort 3000
It should be noted that Microsoft sent this mouse so they would have a competitor in the optical category. Currently, they do not make an optical gaming mouse and will not be marketing the Comfort 3000 as such.






Aesthetics: 2.5 / 5
There is nothing spectacular about this mouse nor is their anything ugly about it. It could be accurately described as average looking.







Ergonomics / Grip: 3 / 5
The mouse isn’t bad but it could be more comfortable. It has a symmetrical design so no matter which hand you use it doesn’t fill out enough for the weaker pinky side of your hand. This is compensated for on the Razer by providing a rubber grip and being able to guide it with your fingertips. The Comfort 3000 is much too slippery for this.

Buttons: 2 / 5
This mouse comes with 4 buttons. Left click, right click, middle click, and one small red button on the left side of the mouse. If you are left handed this button becomes almost useless, at the very least, awkward. For gaming 5 buttons is almost a must now and this mouse did not cut it.

Weight: 4 / 5
This mouse was very light and easy to push around.

Glide Factor: 2.5 / 5
This mouse scores a bit higher than the MX518 because it utilizes only 4 feet all of which are larger than the feet on the MX518. With less points of contact it makes for pretty easy gliding, but still nothing more than average.

Features: 2.5 / 5
Average mouse with average features. This mouse best features are the horizontal scrolling and the very smooth wheel scrolling. However, if you like your wheel to click while turning in the least this mouse is not for you. It does not click at all or even acknowledge its turning at all.

Price: $18.50
