What customers like about Zebronics Zeb Dolphin

  • Silent left and right-click operation suitable for quiet workspaces
  • Dual-mode connectivity supporting both 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth v5.0
  • Ergonomic, curvy design that provides a comfortable palm rest for many users
  • Lightweight build (75g) making it highly portable for travel

What customers don't like about Zebronics Zeb Dolphin

  • The scroll wheel is reported to be noisy (plastic clicking sound), unlike the silent main buttons
  • Frequent reports of Bluetooth connectivity issues after 2-3 months of use
  • Build quality feels like low-quality plastic to some users
  • Mixed feedback on size, with some finding it too bulky or causing hand pain
  • Scroll wheel durability issues, with reports of it lagging or failing after a few months
  • Requires a separate AA battery, which is not included in the package
  • Mixed feedback on value, with some customers describing it as a short-lived product

Verdict

The Zebronics Zeb-Dolphin is a lightweight (75g) dual-mode wireless mouse featuring both Bluetooth v5.0 and 2.4GHz connectivity with a 10m range. It is equipped with an advanced optical sensor delivering a fixed 1200 DPI resolution and includes a unique thumb scroll wheel for horizontal navigation alongside its primary three buttons, which are rated for 1 million cycles. Main pros include its ergonomic, glossy-finished design tailored for comfort, silent-click operation for quiet workspaces, and a power-saving physical ON/OFF switch. Potential cons include its reliance on a single AA battery that is not included and may require periodic replacement, as well as a lack of adjustable DPI settings compared to other models in its class.
