Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about A4Tech FB35 FB35S

  • Dual-mode connectivity supporting both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless
  • Multi-device pairing with easy switching between up to 3 devices
  • Ergonomic, right-handed design that is comfortable for long hours of use
  • Silent click operation (specifically on the FB35S model) for quiet environments
  • Long battery life with efficient power-saving modes
  • Lightweight and portable build quality, making it ideal for travel
  • Affordable price point offering high value for money
  • Adjustable DPI levels (1200-1600-2000) for customizable sensitivity

What customers don't like about A4Tech FB35 FB35S

  • Maximum DPI of 2000 is relatively low for high-speed or competitive gaming
  • Side thumb buttons can be overly sensitive, leading to accidental clicks
  • Build quality is considered average or 'plastic-y' by some users
  • Low polling rate (125Hz) may result in higher latency compared to dedicated gaming mice
  • Non-rechargeable (base FB35 model relies on AA batteries, unlike the FB35C/FB35CS variants)
  • Limited suitability for left-handed users due to its ergonomic right-handed shape
  • Color/finish may fade or wear off from the palm rest area over extended use

Verdict

The A4tech FB35 and its silent-click variant, the FB35s, are ergonomic right-handed wireless mice featuring dual-mode connectivity via Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless, allowing simultaneous connection to up to three devices with easy switching. They offer a 3-level adjustable optical sensor (1200-1600-2000 DPI), six buttons—including two customizable thumb side buttons—and proprietary '16-in-one' gesture support for hotkey commands. Main pros include high versatility for multi-device productivity, an impressive battery life of up to 12 months on a single AA battery, and a lightweight 96g portable design. However, notable cons include a relatively low 125Hz polling rate unsuitable for high-end gaming, a lack of rechargeable internal batteries in the base models, and no support for horizontal scrolling or RGB customization.
