Tips for getting the best from your mouse
First, use it on a clean, flat surface or a mouse mat, because this keeps tracking accurate. Next, avoid glass and highly reflective surfaces, since optical sensors struggle on them. Also, wipe the sensor on the underside with a dry cloth now and then. Finally, avoid bending the cable sharply, so it lasts longer.
