Nakon lansiranja sustava Windows 8 , Microsoft je odlučio redizajnirati svoju liniju tipkovnica i miša kako bi bili korisniji pri radu s modernim uređajima, uključujući tablete i hibride poput Microsoft Surfacea^{(Microsoft Surface)} . Jedan od najzanimljivijih miševa koji su lansirani je Sculpt Comfort koji ima veliki plavi gumb sa Windows logom na sebi. Što radi ovaj gumb i je li ovaj miš dobar uređaj? Naučimo^(Let) ovo i više, iz ove recenzije, na temelju korištenja ovog miša tijekom tri tjedna.

Otpakiranje Microsoft Sculpt Comfort miša^{(Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse)}

Otpakivanje miša Sculpt Comfort vrlo je standardno iskustvo. Ambalaža je napravljena tako da se odmah vidi miš i da se lako skida.

U kutiji ćete pronaći miš, priručnik i brošure s informacijama, jamstvo i dvije Duracell baterije. Kao što možete vidjeti na donjoj slici, miš Sculpt Comfort je prilično sjajan.

Više bih volio mat završnicu, ali ovo je stvar osobnog ukusa, a ne pravi problem.

Specifikacije hardvera

Sculpt Comfort je Bluetooth miš koji se može koristiti samo s prijenosnim računalima koja imaju Bluetooth radio čip te s tabletima ili hibridnim uređajima kao što je Microsoft Surface . Koristi Microsoftovu ^(Microsoft)BlueTrack tehnologiju , što znači da ga možete koristiti na gotovo svim površinama osim na staklu i ne treba vam podloga za miš.

Dizajniran je za desnoruke korisnike i pruža obilje mogućnosti pomicanja koje su vrlo korisne. Više o njima saznat ćete kasnije u ovom članku.

Miš Sculpt Comfort ima službenu podršku za upravljačke programe za Windows 7 , Windows 8, Windows 8.1 i Mac OS verzije od 10.4 do 10.7. Očekujem da će ovaj miš raditi na drugim operativnim sustavima kao što su Linux ili Windows Vista , ali nećete moći koristiti njegove posebne značajke kao što je veliki gumb Windows logotipa ili njegove napredne mogućnosti pomicanja. Na ovim operativnim sustavima to će biti standardni miš bez posebnih značajki.

Potpuni popis specifikacija možete pronaći ovdje: Sculpt Comfort Mouse Details .

Korištenje Microsoft Sculpt Comfort miša^{(Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse)}

Koristio sam ovaj miš zajedno sa svojim novim Surface Pro 2 uređajem koji ima instaliran Windows 8.1. Uparivanje sa Surface Pro 2 bilo je vrlo jednostavno: nakon što sam umetnuo baterije, uključio sam miš, a zatim i Bluetooth čip na Surface Pro 2 . Windows 8.1 je odmah otkrio Sculpt Comfort i instalirao ga. Nakon nekoliko sekundi mogao sam ga koristiti.

Preciznost miša je uvijek bila dobra. Nisam imao problema pri radu s Excel proračunskim tablicama, Powerpoint prezentacijama ili prilikom navigacije webom. Čak sam odradio nekoliko gaming sessiona i igrao sam League of Legends . Miš je imao pristojan učinak iako se po preciznosti ne može usporediti s pravim gaming miševima.

Nošenje može biti pomalo neugodno ako ga koristite s tabletom. Miš je deblji od većine tableta i ne uklapa se dobro u standardnu ​​vrećicu za tablete. Međutim, kada ga koristite s prijenosnim računalom, vrlo ga je lako nositi u torbi za prijenosno računalo.

Softver instaliran s upravljačkim programima ovog miša je sada standardni Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center , dostupan za sve Microsoftove^(Microsoft) tipkovnice i miševe. Ovaj je softver vrlo prilagodljiv i možete postaviti mnoge stvari o načinu rada miša, uključujući stvaranje postavki specifičnih za aplikaciju.

Sve u svemu, bio sam zadovoljan načinom rada miša Sculpt Comfort i njegovom preciznošću.^{(Sculpt Comfort)}

Sculpt Comfort miš^{(Sculpt Comfort Mouse)} je sve o jednostavnom prebacivanju^{(Easy Switching)} i pomicanju^(Scrolling)

Dvije su stvari po kojima se ovaj miš razlikuje od većine miševa. Prije^(First) svega, tu je veliki plavi gumb Windows logotipa na lijevoj strani. Ako ga pritisnete, odvest će vas na početni^(Start) zaslon. Prevučete li prstom prema gore po njegovoj površini, otvara se prethodno otvorena aplikacija ili prozor, baš kao kada se povlačite s lijeve strane, na ekranu dodirom.

Ako prijeđete prstom prema dolje po površini ovog gumba, otvara se prekidač aplikacija na lijevoj strani zaslona. Pomicanje prsta u istom smjeru zatim pomicanje kroz aplikacije koje prikazuje prekidač.

U sustavu Windows 7^{(Windows 7)} pritiskom na ovaj gumb otvara se izbornik Start^{(Start Menu)} . Pokreti prijelaza rade samo kada koristite preglednik, za pomicanje unatrag ili naprijed. Nažalost, nisam imao prijenosno računalo s Bluetoothom^(Bluetooth) i Windows 7 kako bih testirao koliko dobro radi. Također, nisam ga uspio testirati na Macu^(Mac) .

Jedina mana koju sam pronašao kod plavog gumba je da ga morate pritisnuti prilično snažno da vas odvede na početni^(Start) zaslon ili izbornik Start^{(Start Menu)} . To je u suprotnosti s time koliko je ovaj gumb osjetljiv kada prevučete prstom po njemu. Vrlo brzo reagira na sve vaše geste osim pritiskanja.

Druga stvar koja je zanimljiva kod ovog miša je da se kotačić za pomicanje može koristiti za pomicanje gore i dolje kao na bilo kojem drugom kotačiću, ali i za pomicanje lijevo i desno. Na primjer, ako radite u velikoj Excel proračunskoj tablici, gurajući kotačić za pomicanje udesno, pomiče se udesno. Ova je značajka vrlo korisna za poslovne ljude koji rade s velikim dokumentima.

Presuda

Miš Microsoft Sculpt Comfort^{(Microsoft Sculpt Comfort)} ima dobar učinak koji se lako instalira i uparuje s prijenosnim računalom ili tabletom, sve dok imaju Bluetooth radio čip. Dobivate udoban hvat i dobru preciznost, osobito kada radite u Officeu^(Office) ili pregledavate web. Upravljački programi su vrlo podesivi i možete detaljno postaviti kako ovaj miš radi. Jedini nedostatak je što korisnici tableta mogu poželjeti tanji miš koji je lakše nositi sa svojim uređajima. No, ako veličina nije faktor, onda je miš Sculpt Comfort izvrstan suputnik.

Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse Review - A Good Companion for Mobile Users

After the launch of Windows 8, Microsoft decided to redesign itѕ keyboard аnd mouse lineup, so that they are more useful when working with modern devices, including tablets and hybrids like the Mіcrosoft Surface. One of the most interesting mice that were launched is the Sculpt Comfort which has a big blue button with the Windows logo on it. What does this button do and is this mouse a good device? Let's learn this and more, from this review, based on using this mouse for three weeks.

Unboxing the Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse

Unboxing the Sculpt Comfort mouse is a very standard experience. The packaging is made so that you immediately see the mouse and so that it is easy to remove.

In the box you will find the mouse, the manual and brochures with information, the warranty and two Duracell batteries. As you can see in the picture below, the Sculpt Comfort mouse is rather glossy.

I would have preferred a matte finish but this a matter of personal taste rather than a real issue.

Hardware Specifications

The Sculpt Comfort is a Bluetooth mouse that can be used only with laptops that have a Bluetooth radio chip and with tablets or hybrid devices like Microsoft Surface. It uses Microsoft's BlueTrack technology, which means that you can use it on almost any surface except glass and you don't need a mouse pad.

It is designed for right-hand users and it provides plenty of scrolling capabilities that are very useful. You will learn more about them later in this article.

The Sculpt Comfort mouse has official driver support for Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Mac OS versions 10.4 to 10.7. I expect this mouse to work on other operating systems like Linux or Windows Vista but you won't be able to use to its special features like the big Windows logo button or its advanced scrolling capabilities. On these operating systems it will be a standard mouse with no special features.

The complete list of specifications can be found here: Sculpt Comfort Mouse Details.

Using the Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse

I have used this mouse together with my new Surface Pro 2 device, that has Windows 8.1 installed. Pairing it with the Surface Pro 2 was very easy: after inserting the batteries, I turned on the mouse and then the Bluetooth chip on the Surface Pro 2. Windows 8.1 detected the Sculpt Comfort immediately and installed it. After a couple of seconds I was able to use it.

The precision of the mouse was always good. I had no issues when working with Excel spreadsheets, Powerpoint presentations or when navigating the web. I even did a couple of gaming sessions and I played League of Legends. The mouse performed decently even though it doesn't compare in precision with real gaming mice.

Carrying it around may be a bit unpleasant if you use it with a tablet. The mouse is thicker than most tablets and it doesn't fit well into a standard tablet bag. However, when using it with a laptop, it is very easy to carry it in your laptop bag.

The software installed with this mouse's drivers is the now standard Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center, available for all Microsoft keyboards and mice. This software is highly configurable and you can set many things about the way the mouse works, including creating app-specific settings.

All-in-all I was satisfied with how the Sculpt Comfort mouse works and its precision.

The Sculpt Comfort Mouse is All About Easy Switching & Scrolling

There are two things that set this mouse apart from most mice. First of all, there is the big blue Windows logo button on the left side. If you press it, it takes you to the Start screen. If you swipe up your finger on it surface, it opens the previously opened app or window, just like when flicking from the left side, on a screen with touch.

If you swipe down your finger on this button's surface, it opens the app switcher on the left side of the screen. Moving the finger in the same direction then scrolls through the apps displayed by the switcher.

In Windows 7, pressing this button opens the Start Menu. The swipe gestures work only when using a browser, to move backward or forward. Unfortunately I did not have a laptop with Bluetooth and Windows 7 to test how well it works. Also, I wasn't able to test it on a Mac.

The only downside I found about the blue button is that you need to press quite hard on it to take you to the Start screen or the Start Menu. This contrasts with how sensitive this button is when swiping on it. It reacts very fast to all your gestures except pressing it.

The other thing that's interesting about this mouse is that the scroll wheel can be used to scroll up and down like on any other wheel but also to scroll left and right. For example, if you are working in a big Excel spreadsheet, pushing the scroll wheel to the right makes it scroll to the right. This feature is very useful for business folks working with large documents.

Verdict

The Microsoft Sculpt Comfort mouse is good performer that's easy to install and pair with a laptop or tablet, as long as they have a Bluetooth radio chip. You get a comfortable grip and good precision, especially when doing Office work or browsing the web. The drivers are very configurable and you can set in detail how this mouse works. The only downside is that tablet users might want a slimmer mouse that's easier to carry around with their devices. But, if size is not a factor, then the Sculpt Comfort mouse is a great companion.
