Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about ASUS Marshmallow Mouse MD100

  • Near-silent operation with clicks below 20dB, ideal for quiet environments like libraries
  • Highly portable, slim, and lightweight design (only 56g without battery)
  • Dual-mode connectivity supporting both Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4GHz RF wireless
  • Aesthetic customization with interchangeable magnetic top covers (two colors usually included)
  • Excellent build quality with a fingerprint-resistant matte finish and antibacterial coating
  • Long-lasting battery life, with many users reporting up to a full year of use on a single AA battery
  • Ambidextrous symmetrical shape suitable for both left and right-handed users
  • Features 100% PTFE feet for a very smooth glide on most surfaces

What customers don't like about ASUS Marshmallow Mouse MD100

  • Extremely flat profile can be uncomfortable for users with large hands or during long work sessions
  • DPI switching button is located on the bottom, making on-the-fly adjustments inconvenient
  • Limited to only three basic buttons with no side buttons or programmable macro support
  • Scroll wheel lacks texture/threading, which some users find slippery if their hands sweat
  • Not suitable for gaming due to lack of customization and basic 1600 DPI sensor
  • Relatively high price point compared to other basic portable office mice
  • Mixed reliability reports, specifically regarding the scroll wheel failing after several months of use

Verdict

The ASUS Marshmallow Mouse MD100 is a compact, ambidextrous wireless mouse weighing just 56g and measuring less than 3cm thin, making it exceptionally portable for travel. It features dual-mode connectivity via Bluetooth 5.0 and 2.4GHz RF, an optical sensor with adjustable DPI levels (800, 1000, 1600), and silent switches rated for 10 million clicks with a noise level under 20dB. Main pros include its long 12-month battery life from a single AA battery, interchangeable magnetic top covers for style customization, 100% PTFE feet for smooth gliding, and an ASUS Antimicrobial Guard coating for better hygiene. However, some cons include its flat profile which may be uncomfortable for users with larger hands or those who prefer a palm grip, and the placement of the DPI adjustment button on the bottom of the device, which prevents on-the-fly sensitivity changes.
