The same page's description says 3.75 x 2.25 x 1.5 in, a rounder figure that disagrees by up to 5 mm. The bullet matches the US item dimensions and is stored. The page does not name the axes, so they are read as length, width and height. The nano receiver is not included in the size.

Mouse weight (claimed)iWireless mice include the battery. When the maker does not say whether a removable battery is in the weight, the published weight is stored and the source note says so. Wired mice exclude the cable. Source notes identify installed skates, colour, approximation, tolerance or a published bound.

62.65g(2.2 oz)3Maker product pageamazon.co.uk/dp/B005EJH6Z4Read 14 October 2026Product details bullet: 62.65 Grams. The US listing gives 0.1 kg, which is consistent when rounded. The page does not say whether the two AAA batteries are included. Reseller copies show 2.39 oz (about 68 g) and 3.52 oz (about 100 g), which look like older or rounded data. The wired Amazon Basics mouse with its cable is about 80 g, so about 63 g with two cells is plausible.
