What I Took Out of My Pocket, Thought It Was Paper but Folded into a 'Mouse'

myAir.0 'Foldable Mouse'... On Sale Next Month at Wadiz

The input device we never let go of when using a computer, the mouse, was originally named because it resembles the shape of a mouse. Its shape fits best for holding in the hand and operating with fingers. However, this shape can sometimes be cumbersome. When going out for work with a laptop, we hesitate for a long time whether to bring the mouse. When moving to a nearby place, it is easy to drop it while carrying it on the laptop. If you put it in a pouch or pocket, it bulges out in the shape of a mouse and does not look good.

The foldable mouse is a product that solves these concerns. As the name suggests, it is a mouse that can be folded. It is as thin as paper, light, and can be easily folded to use as a mouse. When working outside, you can quickly take it out from your inner pocket to use it as a mouse, and after finishing work, fold it and put it away. It weighs only 38g.


Can such a light mouse really work properly? Is it inconvenient to work with? After trying it myself, once you get used to it, it was no different from any other mouse. When opening the product, origami that creates the shape of a mouse first comes to mind. In fact, folding it to use as a mouse is easier than origami. Folding the two wings together creates the mouse.

Connection to the PC is via Bluetooth. Although it is only 5mm thick, it operates with left and right clicks like other mice. The click sound is very quiet. I quickly confirmed that clicks register without applying much force. It also has a wheel. It operates by touch. There are two methods: pressing the wheel and moving the mouse or using touch scroll.


What is most satisfying is that it is easy to carry anywhere. It can even fit in a dress shirt pocket. Small and light, but it can handle most tasks without difficulty. This is because it implements a structure that does not bend the wrist like a work mouse. Portable mice are often inconvenient due to their small size, but the foldable mouse solves that problem.


Also, it can be used for up to 3 months on a single charge. In an emergency, charging for just 1 minute allows 3 hours of use. When charging is needed, just connect it to a C-type adapter. It is also highly durable. It is said that the product does not get damaged even if dropped from a height of 1.5m.
