In regards to the mouse wheel... when scrolling, is the wheel a free-spin wheel (smooth)? Or, is it the spin where you feel the ribbed bumps?

You feel the ribbed bumps very slightly. I have to say this is the best mouse I've had and I have purchased many, cheap to expensive. The Anker has been the most reliable.

ribbed bumps. Not intense bumps by any means, it's not a very stiff wheel. But bumps nonetheless

Yes, the wheel clicks softly during scrolling. Most mice I have used have a harder click than this.

There is no real wheel. However, if you move your finger on the mouse, it will mimic the wheel function. Similar to touch pad. I like the mouse.

Scrolling feels pretty smooth to me. There is some friction but its scrolling is smoother than the Kensington expert that I got a few years ago where you can feel bumps as you scroll.

No, it doesn't. It has some workarounds, but it won't be as fast as or feel like it does with a mouse with a scroll wheel.

yes,scrolling is silent, and it makes a soft click,when I click to point.It is much smoother scrolling then my wireless mouse also.

Not sure what you mean by "smooth". It is a basic mouse that has a scrolling wheel. It works just fine for my use.

The scrolll wheel has detent as it is rotated, and also is a button when pushed. I have had this mouse for quite some time, and am very happy with it.

I've never had a problem with the scroll wheel. The button that makes it a free wheeled scroll is awesome. This is the best mouse I've ever owned. I don't do any gaming so not sure how well it would work for games.

Yes, scroll wheel is silent too. Has some texture on the wheel for traction, but you can't feel lines with your finger.

I have two of these lovely units and have never had a problem with the scroll wheel. Occasionally the ball needs cleaning, as does the socket in which it sits, but that doesn't happen very often. I like these mice so much more than the kind you have to slide around that I'll put up with almost any minor annoyance! Overall, I would rate these as 4.5 out of 5 stars. Really nice units.

You glide your middle finger over it the ball to scroll. It has a consistent, smooth glide. I love my mouse. It has helped my carpal tunnel bc Im not using my pointer finger to click anymore. hope this helps. :)

The scroll spin freely with ease. This really is an amazing mouse for the price!

It's incremental. You can feel slight clicks/bumps when you scroll the wheel.

I was faced with the same decision when I purchased my Redragon. Yes the scroll wheel is locked, but the position of the red button is my use all for all my main spells. Cures, rapid fire, whatever your toon uses the most. It was slightly bulky at first but now feels comfortable in my small hands, I love that you can add weights to it. Honestly the price is great, we bought 3 and have had them over a year now and we have no complaints. Works great with my Asus gaming laptop.

The trackpad works similarly, but there's no side scroll wheel function I can find. It does have the neat feature of press-down 'button' area at the lower (closest to you) edge of the pad. It clicks and gives feedback. Otherwise it seems to function as any other trackpad.

Yes, the scroll wheel does have detents or click stops as you scroll. They are very quiet and subtle feeling to the touch. Works very well. I also have a Logitech M500 on another computer. That one has a separate little button to turn the click stops off or on. The off position allows for super fast scrolling to fly up and down on a page, but will often flutter about on a page with the slightest movement of the mouse itself (meaning that you might lose your place while trying to read something). I prefer the detents or click stops. The Kensington mouse never flutters like that.
