Behind the rear battery cover is the required USB nano dongle and AA battery. With the typical SROCKER power saving technology, you can expect months of use between battery changes. While testing took place on two different Windows 10 systems, since no special software is required, the USB dongle and mouse should also work on almost any other mouse-compatible platforms. The V5C is a good performer at a great price.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pluses<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Low price<\/li>\n<li>Smooth motion<\/li>\n<li>Silent operation<\/li>\n<li>In-mouse USB nano dongle storage<\/li>\n<li>Comes with a battery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Minuses<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Left and right mouse buttons have subtle action, which may not be to everyone&#8217;s liking<\/li>\n<li>Mouse is very light even with the battery, which may also not be to everyone&#8217;s liking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to SROCKER for the review unit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I previously reviewed the SROCKER C10S (&lt;$16) and V2C (&lt;$10), each of which I found offered nice features and good performance for a very low price.
