Review: Reliable, no-frills workhorse - Let me first say that I am a pretty picky mouse user, and have tried over a dozen models of mice this past year, both wired and wireless, from companies like Logitech, Dell, HP, Kensington, and others. My favorite wireless models seemed to always "improve" every couple years or so, which (in my opinion) actually left them less usable; hence, my search for the perfect wired mouse. I was surprised by the Adesso's exceptional build quality, tracking and accuracy, given its nigh-unbeatable price. The HC-3003US also seems to have been around in its current form for awhile, being cited as Win XP/2000 compatible on its website. As an aesthetic bonus, the body is monochrome black without any distracting branding logos. I could already see this mouse becoming my go-to workhorse. PROS * Basic, no-frills mouse under $10 * The 1000 dpi optical sensor tracks very smoothly on wood, paper, etc. * Mouse wheel appears durable and sturdy -- there's virtually no "give", unless clicked. Also, it's functional -- with notched scrolling and easy to grip rubber. CONS * Fairly audible clicks and scrolling. It's not a silent mouse by any means. Review: Cheap, simple, works well, but LOUD - As my title states, we need a cheap and easy mouse for use with a laptop, and this does the trick at a great price. The mouse click is crazy loud, but I tend to only notice it if I'm in a bad mood or something. Otherwise it blends into the background noise without a problem. If you just need a no-frills but quality mouse, pick this one up! ## Features - Compatible with Windows 10/8/7, Vista, XP, 2000, and macOS X and above - for both left- and right-handed use - 3-button (left, right, and scroll wheel buttons) optical mouse - ergonomic design provides comfortable grip and eliminates hand strain while giving great cursor control - Convenient metal scroll wheel to navigate quickly and easily ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0038KND7G | | Additional Features | Ergonomic Design | | Antenna Location | Office | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,271 in Our Brands ( See Top 100 in Our Brands ) #753 in Computer Mice | | Brand | Adesso | | Built-In Media | 3 Button Desktop Optical Scroll Mouse (USB), Quick Start Guide | | Button Quantity | 3 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (87) | | Embellishment Feature | Ergonomic | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00783750003995, 07837500039956 | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Item Dimensions L x W | 4.5"L x 2.4"W | | Item Type Name | Adesso 3-Button Desktop Optical Scroll USB Mouse with 1000 DPI Resolution (HC-3003US) | | Item Weight | 3.2 ounces | | Manufacturer | Adesso | | Model Name | HC-3003US | | Model Number | HC-3003US | | Mouse Maximum Sensitivity | 1000 Dots per Inch | | Movement Detection | Optical | | Operating System | Windows 10 /8/ 7/ Vista/ XP/ 2000 & Mac OS X & above | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Range | 5.0 meters | | Style Name | USB | | UPC | 809385668795 611101755487 168141473685 072091602210 033584469710 807030498308 797864205763 172302697711 132017754284 783750003995 777786429973 163121148386 804066563161 806293530374 809186273907 809185817294 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Limited Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Adesso - **Color:** Black - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Movement Detection Technology:** Optical - **Special Feature:** Ergonomic Design ## Images ![HC-3003 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51OU9MS+2SL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Unit Count, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable, no-frills workhorse *by T***N on March 22, 2016* Let me first say that I am a pretty picky mouse user, and have tried over a dozen models of mice this past year, both wired and wireless, from companies like Logitech, Dell, HP, Kensington, and others.

The mouse click is crazy loud, but I tend to only notice it if I'm in a bad mood or something. Otherwise it blends into the background noise without a problem. If you just need a no-frills but quality mouse, pick this one up! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ this is good and I expect to have to buy another next ... *by W***E on April 13, 2015* 2014 works okay; BUT IT'S A CHEAP MOUSE; reading many, many reviews CHEAP MICE simple last only 1-2 years not the deserved 5-10 years; cheap switch contacts just wear out.... this is expected and I expect to have to buy another next year. December 2015, original double-clicking in error, just replaced.... unlike others I bought 2 this time [just in case of a DOA] works great and I expect to use the 2nd one in 2016, BUT cheap enough that I don't care!! UPDATE: checked 2nd mouse: right-click really tough to push and moves pointer on screen... will ask for replacement, if free. WHY BUY TWO???? (1) This is a cheap mouse: chances of a DOA high (2) This is a cheap mouse: chances it'll wear-out ASAP high. (3) This is a cheap mouse: it's cheap so why pinch pennies here?? UPDATE: cheap mouse does have a "Wheel Button" i.e. you push down on the wheel and it clicks BUT unable to access this feature and program it. Standard MS Win-7 drivers have no provision for it.... had to order a Logitech M-500, LOL --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/12362714-hc-3003](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/12362714-hc-3003) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
