This design feature was implemented to bring together the essence of elegance and professionalism in a slim and efficient unit.

You’ll get up to ten meters of wireless range, which equates to 33 feet in an open area, and 16.5 feet in an office environment. Instead of having a receiver, this mouse connects through the device’s Bluetooth which is a huge plus for people who are always on the run with their Surface Pro 4’s.
