UPDATED REVIEW:
For starters, I have to start by saying this is the second Bluetooth Wireless Mouse I have purchased from Rapique. The last mouse I had from them was perfect in every way and would probably still be working today, however I dropped it one too many times and this last drop did it in (LOL). So I was thrilled to find that I could order another Rapique mouse and have it delivered the same day, which was perfect, because I desperately needed it for work the next day.
Let me just say, if you are considering buying a wireless/Bluetooth mouse, this truly is the one you want to buy. After using my first Rapique mouse for a year and a half before it’s untimely demise, I have found that there are zero cons from my own personal experience in using this mouse daily. The packaging is small and light. The mouse comes with a USB-C charging cord, and it also has a USB plug if you choose to use the USB connectivity instead of the Bluetooth. I personally use Bluetooth and it works great!
When I received my new mouse, I promptly charged it for a few hours (as instructed in the instruction guide.) Once charged, I turned it on and pressed the “mode” button on the bottom of the moues until BT1 lit up blue and started flashing. Before I could do anything else, my laptop picked up on the signal and automatically connected it for me! Talk about easy! I had actually forgotten how simple it was the first time I had purchased this mouse back in 2023.
This mouse has a great connection and doesn’t skip around or have any glitches that some other brands can have. Other devices I’ve used in the past I’ve had to turn off and re-start or completely disconnect from my Bluetooth and set it up again. I’ve never had to do that with my Rapique mouse.
I think the best feature of this mouse though, and I believe it’s one that SO many of us individuals who work in an office can appreciate, is that it is SUPER quiet. You literally cannot year any clicks whatsoever. When I say that this mouse is better and even quieter than the “ShhMouse” brand I purchased prior to 2023, I mean it! I work in an open concept office and I find the clicking of a mouse annoying. Especially when the noise is coming from MY mouse. So I was pleasantly surprised by this. It was one of the main reasons I purchased this second one!
If you’re in need of a new, wireless mouse, this really is the best I’ve tried. And believe me, I’ve tried A LOT over the years leading up to 2023 when I first discovered Rapique. I’m hopeful that this 2nd Rapique mouse will last me as long, if not longer than my previous. And if/when this one kicks the bucket, I’ll definitely purchase another one.

(2023 review)
I was looking for a quiet, bluetooth compatible mouse for work. I initially purhased a "Shhh Mouse" brand – and although it was quiet, it broke SUPER fast! So I was on the search again. After much research I decided on this RAPIQUE Bluetooth Wireless Mouse and I have not been disappointed! I've had it for many months now and it's working great! I love that I can either use it as a Bluetooth or I can use the included USB plug (which stores nicely in the bottom of the mouse when not in use.) It comes with a cord to charge it and I have noticed that it charges quickly! I work 5 days a week in the office and I only need to charge this mouse once per week. My favorite part about this mouse though is just that it's quiet! The others I've used in the past were loud whenever I would have to click. If I found it obnoxious, I know others did as well. I have absolutely zero issues with this mouse. If/when this mouse dies – I will 100% be buying another one.
