Glossary

Port on the device

Connector on the mouse body for detachable cable connection; it is found in both wired models and wireless ones with a battery, where through this port the mouse charges and, if necessary, operates "wired" without delays.

— microUSB. One of the miniature versions of the USB connector, still popular in gadgets despite the emergence of the more advanced USB-C. It has comparatively modest capabilities (specifically, it falls short of USB-C in terms of maximum possible charging power), however, this is rarely critical. Meanwhile, there are a plethora of cables and chargers for microUSB.

USB-C. The latest (as of the end of 2025) type of USB connector. It is symmetrical, allowing the cable to be inserted either way, eliminating the possibility of incorrect connection. USB-C is more reliable, has an extended lifespan, and supports higher data transfer and charging speed. Additionally, it is compatible with modern devices and is gradually becoming a universal standard, making mice with such a connector more convenient and relevant for users.
