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

What customers like about Xiaomi Mi Portable Mouse

  • Dual connectivity (Bluetooth and 2.4GHz RF) allows switching between two devices easily
  • Ultra-lightweight and slim profile makes it highly portable for travel
  • Premium aesthetic with an aluminum alloy shell and minimalist design
  • Smooth performance on various surfaces including wood and metal
  • Quiet or silent clicking on specific editions (Silent Edition)
  • Ambidextrous design suitable for both left and right-handed users

What customers don't like about Xiaomi Mi Portable Mouse

  • Flat, non-ergonomic design can cause hand fatigue or strain during long-term use
  • Scroll wheel placement feels too far back for some users
  • Connectivity issues reported with macOS or certain Bluetooth setups
  • Metal surface is prone to scratches and can feel cold in winter
  • Lower precision/DPI compared to dedicated gaming mice
  • Bluetooth mode may experience latency or disconnections compared to the 2.4G receiver

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mi Portable Mouse is a compact, ambidextrous wireless peripheral featuring a premium anodized aluminum alloy shell and an overall weight of just 77.5g with batteries. It utilizes a high-precision photoelectric laser sensor with a fixed 1200 DPI resolution, providing accurate tracking on 95% of surface types, including glass. A standout characteristic is its dual-mode connectivity, supporting both Bluetooth 4.0 and 2.4GHz wireless via a stored USB dongle, which allows users to connect to two devices simultaneously and switch between them with a single bottom-mounted button. Powered by two AAA batteries, it offers a long battery life of up to 12 months and a wireless range of 10 metres. Main pros include its highly portable, ultra-slim design (23.6mm thick), durable build quality, and versatile multi-device switching. However, its low-profile, flat ergonomic shape may feel uncomfortable during extended use, particularly for users with larger hands, and the lack of adjustable DPI or side buttons limits its functionality for gaming or complex productivity tasks.
