After a week I had the mouse so much used to it that I think it's terrible to use other mice. In particular, the service is super easy, as I said some getting used to but after that essential. The batteries (battery 2700 mAh) keep for about a month (150 hours.) In my experience, then recharge or replace batteries in and on we go. The transmitter should not be so far away to me about 40 cm otherwise there are problems with reception. The work is precisely the trackball than a normal mouse, especially in graphics programs, of course, you have to change the setting so that you can work well. I work a lot in Photoshop or Corel. Even in games where you can very accurately targets should not be a problem. I have to speak again my previous speakers.
