    Hey guys! I am looking for a good quality silent mouse (wireless/non wireless).
    Upon some research I managed to dig up this through the pile of supposedly quiet/silent "good quality" (chinese/taiwanese) 15$ mice.

    Link here: Nexus Silent Mouse - a mouse without the clicking-sound

    This one ticked my fancy because:
    -it looks decent
    -it has a rubberized top surface
    -it has a nice designed website (somewhat trustworthy)

    I would also like you guys to come up with some suggestions/reviews and experiences that you had with such mice (those of you who tried any) as well as other brands worth considering.

    Thanks for the recommendation! Seems that the VX Nano has good reviews for both models (old and new) and it is also a Logitech, so no quality doubts there. Although, I have my reservations concerning this model because it is not really advertised as a silent mouse. I don't consider that silent mice have to be advertised differently, but this alone nowadays is something I'm looking for. It is a personal preference.

    What do you think? Is there a big difference between mice that are specially advertised as silent and the standard ones that users consider generally more silent than others (in this case the Logitech VX Nano)?

    I am really looking for one mouse that is completely silent (or at least really close). Again, it is a personal preference. I am really a person that usually works late at night for college and such and this would help me a lot, especially my flatmates hehe :D
