    I could make that work.

    No you couldn’t.

    I’ve spent years flying with my laptop, I’ve bought all kinds of mini mice to try to reduce the weight and bulk of the stuff I flew with, and I’ve learned one thing: there’s a reason nobody uses small mice, and that’s because they suck. The smaller they are, the more convenient they are to carry around, the less usable they get.

    The only travel mouse that ever worked for me is the Microsoft Surface Arc mouse, because it doesn’t try to be tiny, just flat when it’s stowed.

      I’m using the Lenovo Yoga Mouse and it’s also quite neat, you can simply twist it to stow it flat.

        I didn’t know that one. But yeah, it’s a Surface Arc copycat kind of thing. But critically, it’s usable because it’s not a mini mouse.

          Yeah, the major advantage is a rechargeable battery and a middle mouse button (you can also use it as a presentation remote with laser pointer)
