Microsoft Pro Intellimouse Review
Checking out an old favourite… the Microsoft Pro Intellimouse, the updated Intelliexplorer 3.0. How does it compare by today’s standards? Is this how the Zowie EC1 got its shape?
It’s interesting to go back to it. I actually changed from this one to the Intelliexplorer 4.0, which was smaller, but still too big. It wasn’t until I got the Razer Copperhead and later the Razer Diamondback that I realized I was missing out on mice that suited me.
Funnily enough I later went to the Razer DeathAdder and it was 5 years before I realized I needed a smaller mouse and got the Logitech G302, then started this channel.
Amazing hey? Mouse history.

Dang, I guess Zowie should sue for that them stealing that mouse shape! kek
Had this mouse for almost 8 months, within the first couple months the latexy area around the thumb and scroll wheel wore away.
I have an earlier intellimouse (not pro, only classic) at work and the rubber has degraded quite a bit. Any tips on how to smooth it out or remove it?
office mouse in the streets, gaming champ in the sheets!
is the pro the same as the Microsoft Classic IntelliMouse?
My 1st gaming mouse was the Intelli 1.1 and will always be the best mouse i've ever used. After that came the Mx 500 from Logitech.
Waiting for Microsoft to remake WMO 1.1 for past 6 years now. Rocket Jump Ninja, please do a review on WMO 1.1
are those the same mouse feet
i fucking hated this mouse it was sooooo shit
Is the scroll wheel stiff on your mouse?
I absolutely love this mouse. It's really a bit too big for my hand, but the sensor is excellent and I absolutely love the way the silver/black version looks on my desk. Also zero rattle whatsoever on the one I got.
Is it a fps mouse?
15 years ago this mouse was the gold standard!
It's my favorite. Big mouse, perfect shape, now with an awesome sensor. I never thought Microsoft would make this happen. Full of surprises. I bought 2!
The intellimouse 3.0 back in the day was designed the way it was for comfort and durability. It wasnt necessarily aimed at people with large hands or gaming but for comfortable day to day office work, apparently alot of RnD and money went into the design and ergonomics. It just happened to have a quite capable sensor for gaming, which it became known for despite being rather large and heavy. They later refreshed it with the classic, having a sensor that tracks surprisingly well on odd surfaces like glass making it more versatile. Then again with the pro, having a modern gaming sensor, actually targeting gamers. It's still heavy, but thats the way it was intended(I'd love a lightweight one tho). I'm sure it will last a good long while too. I still use my og intellimouse 3 from 2004(old quake days) and work everyday for he last 5 years, surprisingly no issues.
Easily one of if not the most comfortable mouse I've ever used, at work or gaming. Even if my aim isn't 100% with it, it just feels right in the hand.
Where did you buy this?
The Intellimouse is easily the greatest mouse of all time. It should never have been discontinued. I can't use anything else now!
dunno why but its very easy to aim with this mouse
Best mice reviewer, by far.
I have still old one, it was really epic mouse in Quake III times 🙂 Today is still playable, but Razer Deathadder is my favourite 🙂
PS: do you know Open Arena? U will like it, special modes Rat and Nmode.
Hi do you know about logitech m90 mouse ? or b100
the sensor is pretty good lol and its only 10$
The most confortable and ergonomic mouse , specially in its first symmetric release. This is what REAL DESIGN ought to do! Now idiots run around following stupid style and aesthetics without real
ergonomics. These clowns have totally forgotten what means attention to real needs, not to talk about the problems that a left-handed person has to find something decent to use. After intellimouse first release, the only one I found was left hand razer death adder ( stupid name but good product ). As all decent things now is out of stock.
What game is that at the end? Quake III Arena?
hey there's this mouse that i got here in asia its called the Rakk Kaptan, the shape is like the zowie ec2a but unlike the ec2a it has a 3389 sensor only weighs 78 grams has amazing paracord cable, but the shocker is that its only less than half the price of the ec2a. as far as i know it is available here in asia but if you were to get yourself one of those i would like to request a professional review from you. Thanks very much
Would it be accurate to say that the Deathadder V2, with the less flaring out on the right side of the mouse, is closer to the intellimouse shape than the previous versions?
this is what real men play with.
Man I really miss the 1.6 days using that mouse
Still dreaming for an WMO 1.1 re-release!
ahhh that shape still feels perfect and naturally in my hand all these years later. it may be """"""""heavy""""""" but its still the king to me
I won a tournament on a MS 3.0 classic version, its still lays in my desk
They shoulda used the old MLT04 sensor instead
best mouse ever
improve the overall quality and give it at least zowie cable, less weight and i go for it. Its the best shape for my medium size hands as well,
i think you mean

hey zy i need your help in choosing a mouse it is between the zowie ec2b and the fk2 i have a palm grip with 18.5cm hands and the tilt slam isnt a problem as i dont do that so i need your help to choose
and i know there are better options now but in my country its a different story the glorius model o is very expensive and rare here and other mice such as the G403 are to
Did you delete a mousepad or keyboard review article?
I'm stickin with my g203. Ive been through so many moce teying to find one that fits my claw grip well. Best feel ive found so far is the corsair m65. But the one i have has a laser sensor. Not good enough. I like my deathadder but again, claw is most comfortable for me and its a bit of a bigger mouse. The g203 is a very familiar shape and feel, with a wonderful sensor and rgb if thats your thing. It has started exibiting some skipping lately though, but could just be my mousepad needing to be cleaned. Skipping is why i dont use the m65.
Can you take a look at the lexip ceramic mouse feet and try it on your main mouse
I love this mouse. It's my daily now. This mouse was also sub $50 CDN with free shipping in Canada for pre-order at the time which is a huge plus for Canadians.
I had been considering getting one of these to replace my Basilisk, but seeing it has rubberised sides kinda puts me off. I have a allergy :
Plz review the G wolves Hati next, keep up the good work
Back in the old days, the Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 was the mouse to have. Microsoft did a collaboration with Razer, resulting in the Microsoft Habu. Razer then used that to make the Razer DeathAdder. The Zowie EC1 was always "inspired by IME3.0", and the FK series was inspired by the Intellimouse Optical, another popular Microsoft mouse.
I still have my old IME 3.0 that is in full working order. I stopped using it because the 450 DPI just isn't enough for modern full HD or beyond resolutions, and the side buttons on that thing were infamously bad.
I want this mouse again. The original sad.
Microsoft? Come on.
Can you review the Glorious model D when you get your hands on it?
Actually 1.1 intellimouse is popular in philippines hahaha
I saw this at Best Buy a long time ago and it costed 110 dollars wth.
true gaming mouse…
Gwolves Hati review pls
