14 DAY TRIAL // Mice of all sorts have long been characterized by the clicking sounds, but it looks like Nexus really wants to be known as the one who broke away form that convention, having now released the SM-8000.
Originally, the means for inputting information in a PC was the keyboard, and there wasn't really anything else that could complement or supplement it.
Then, operating systems actually started to evolve and become more interactive, spurned and encouraging, at the same time, the evolution and diversification of hardware at large.
Eventually, the mouse was invented, taking ease of use and convenience to a whole new level.
Ever since then, mice have evolved and even broken up unto varieties, driven by pricing and consumer requirements.
As such, nowadays, most mice use optics instead of those small, plastic oo rubber-coated metal spheres, and one can find not just the common, two-button or three-button (usually scroll-equipped) peripherals, but models with many more of them.
Verily, there are actual models with over a dozen (or more) buttons, programmable, these being intended for MMO (massively multiplayer online) games.
What they all have in common, however, is that each button press produces the well known clicking sound, some louder than others
Nexus decided, back in November, to break apart from the fold by making the SM-7000, a mouse whose click was completely inaudible.
Now, the same outfit has created the SM-8000, a sort of sibling with 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity (has a Nano receiver) and which boasts five buttons.
Along with the optical sensor, the pair of AA batteries and the Auto Power saving mode functionality, the above are packed inside a black-coated frame measuring 11.7 x 7.6 x 4.2 cm.
Unfortunately, nothing was said concerning the price and availability of the SM-8000. Either way, those that want to be sure of what they would be buying need only throw their eyes upon the video below (it shows the SM-7000, but the noise level should be the same).
