Cherry WheelMouse Wired Optical Mouse, Light Gray

I got this mouse to use at work. My new department allows people to customize their setups a little, and I wanted to go a more vintage PC beige route. This mouse came up, was fully wired (I hate wireless), and was very affordable. It arrived in a very plain box, but also included a USB to PS/2 adapter. This is great if you have an older PC/motherboard. I will be using the USB end myself. I found this mouse to have a good size (a lot of generic mice seem extra small now) and the buttons clicky and responsive. Mouse wheel works exactly as you would expect. It's a mouse and it works well. It is not very heavy, but seems well made enough to be your daily driver. I highly recommend getting this and pairing it with a vintage style keyboard so you can have some 90s PC aesthetics.

Buying my second one now after having the first for 4 years. I really needed a retro looking mouse for my retro sleeper pc build and this is perfect. The only issue with the old one is that the optical lense on the bottom is pretty scuffed up after 4 years of use that I notice the movement is a little off. Probably wouldn't bother a normal person.

This is nice, good click feel and scroll feel, works great. I didn't love how bright the light was shining up through the scroll wheel area though, it would sometimes glare off my computer screen. So I took it apart (4 screws under the black glide feet stickers allow the top to be removed) and just covered the LED area with some black electric tape so it no longer shines up through the top. Works just the same but no more bright red light shining through.

Had it for 6 years and still love it. Could be a bit heavier, as the weight of the cable can cause it to slide around, but it’s still a great mouse.

The size of this mouse is perfect for me. I like that it is longer than most computer mouse's because I have long fingers. I measured it at about four and a half inches in diameter, two and half inches width, and an arch of about one and half inches. The red light brightens when the mouse is moved and electric "white noise" sound can be heard if the space you're in is quiet enough and your ear is close to the device. The clicking with the mouse feels solid and tactile with a profound vintage sound that requires slightly more pressure than modern mice and it functions well without any stickiness. It is compatible with my laptop and comes with a plug for older tower PC's and I am very satisfied with the value for the money I spent. This mouse is my daily driver for work and casual use. There are skates on all four corners on the bottom of the device for smooth gliding, even on an antique wooden desk without a mouse pad. The laser is accurate and precise at the slightest touch. There *is* red light bleed (the red light inside the device shines through the shell) but I do not find this inconvenient, nor does it change the way I feel about the product in any way. In fact, I think it gives it personality and sets it apart from other mice on the market. While your computer is turned on, the mouse stays lit, making it easy to find in the dark. I have been using it for a few months at the time of this review with no issues.

This mouse is not only responsive and usable, it just feels good in the hand. Best of all, it has that retro look I was worried I wouldn't be able to find. The mouse comes with a PS/2 connector for anyone wanting to use it with an older computer. The scroll wheel actually lights up red which I personally find to be delightful. If you're looking for a retro-style mouse or even just a mouse that's all practicality, no frills this is it. The switches on the right click, left click, and scroll wheel all sound different and amazing (though I suppose what else could you expect from a Cherry brand mouse. (Yes, I'm going to be using it for gaming and it seems to be up for the task.)

Perfect retro mouse. Great build quality and simple, really great value at this price point (~$20). I use it for general computer work and gaming, it's been great for every task. All I could have asked for and more!

While the LOD is somewhat high, this mouse has surprised me overall. It's been a fairly reliable little mouse, even for gaming. I've put in hours and hours on Doom, Quake, Battlefield, and many more with this mouse and has yet to disappoint. Each button's click is strong, and has yet to give me trouble (i.e. phantom clicks, not registering at all, etc). The wheel still scrolls as it should. It's very lightweight, and comfortable to use for long periods of time. I paired this mouse with a Perixx Periboard 106, and they compliment one another nicely. All that said, I must say that if you're looking for a more competitive gaming mouse with significantly better DPI and LOD, I recommend the wired Razer Deathadder. I really feel the Cherry M5400 should be priced lower at $9.99 considering there are some really great mice out there in the $20-$30 range. At $9.99, I'd be tempted to buy two more. Not a bad mouse at all.

Una mouse perfectamente funcional con una estética retro. Muy cómodo, click satisfactorio y viene con su adaptador PS/2 a USB. Excelente compra.

I love it it's perfect

j'ai acheté 2 souris (l'histoire d'en avoir toujours une de coté, car j'ai 2 oordis).. j'ai pris cette marque, car j'en ai achété une il y a presque 15 ans et elle a très bien focntionné. J'espère que celle ci fera aussi long feux.. en tout cas, elle en prend le chemin, car je n'ai aucun problème avec elle.. Je la recommande ainsi que le vendeur.. J'ai été livré sour 4/5 jours

Ho acquistato questo mouse dopo avere usato per un anno un mouse della Logitech, per la verità non molto affidabile, troppo piccolo e a volte si incantava. Avevo bisogno di un mouse PS/2 per lasciare una porta USB libera in più che non bastano mai e questo faceva al caso mio, USB ma con adattatore PS/2 incluso nella confezione. Bisogna stare attenti perché non tutti i mouse USB funzionano con l'adattatore, per esempio il mouse che usavo prima non va... Questo mouse CHERRY M5400 è con il filo, è grande, è pesante (e va bene così!), scorre bene, i tasti sono comodi e precisi con un bel clic, adatto sia a destri che mancini. La rotellina di gomma è piacevole al tatto, si illumina di rosso quando il computer è acceso e aumenta la luminosità mentre il mouse scorre sul tappetino, caratteristiche probabilmente inutili, ma simpatiche. Il motivo principale per cui ho scelto questo mouse è però l'ottima figura che fa di fianco alla mitica tastiera IBM PS/2, La Tastiera per eccellenza, "cliccosa" come le migliori tastiere per gaming, ma di più, una tastiera per sempre, anno di produzione 1988.

Quería un ratón con aire retro junto con el teclado Perixx que ya tengo. Pero tampoco quería cualquier cosa, es muy ligero y un tamaño perfecto. Recomendado 100%.
