  • ekes Optical Mouse Sucks

    Personal Computing | October 14th, 2007 by Melo 435 views

    I recently purchased an ekes optical mouse to replace my logitech optical mouse which was having some left clicking problems. The brand, ekes, might be unfamiliar to you and I must admit I’m not familiar with it myself but it was the cheapest optical mouse I could find. Thinking that they’re all just the same, I went for the cheapest brand which was ekes. I later found out that it was a stupid decision.

    I went home with my brand new ekes optical mouse, unplugged my old defective logitech mouse and plugged in the new mouse. Everything was working smoothly. The new mouse was doing what it’s suppose to do but not for long. I spend a lot of time with my computer and after a few hours with the new mouse, it suddenly became hot, the light went dead and the mouse pointer stopped responding. I immediately unplugged it to reduce the risk of damaging my computer. The mouse also gave out a burnt odor. It smelled like the wires inside were burnt.

    Well, as they say, you get what you paid for. I bought a cheap optical mouse and I exactly what I paid for, a cheap product both in quality and price.

    My suggestion, if you find this brand anywhere, ekes, then just stay away from it. Popular brands may cost more but you’ll be getting some form of quality from it. Cheap brands are just that, CHEAP!

      YEAH. i just bought one today, and guess what? it smelled like a burnt wires. i used my money for nothing, i’m so stupid! i was tempted by it’s cheap price, i compared it to the skype optical mouse which cost P1,200, while the ekes cost only P800, it was the cheapest so i bought it, my mistake. my money was wasted. =(

      Yeah right. That’s the dumbest mouse that i’ve ever purchased and used. I bopught two of them for my shop but after 2 hours they went dead. The pointer stopped moving and clicking an icon is a mess also. It doesn’t respond anymore.

      DUMB EKES MOUSE.
