Does the scroll wheel click into place as you scroll, or does it roll too smoothly?

It does not click, but the wheel has enough resistance that it doesn't move around too wildly.

Is does have slight clicks but it is slight enough that I would still consider it to be smooth.

I usually right click (which doesn't register), but moving it works too, takes a moment longer. I know the root of your question, and it's not an annoying mouse in that way.

The only way I know how to slow the scroll is go into your Control Panel and change the Mouse Properties. Should be a wheel option.

I don't have any trouble with the scrolling... just the occasional missed click and i've had that with every wireless mouse.

No issue with the scroll wheel. Try taking battery out and then re-inserting.

old post but it does have clicks between each scroll both thumb and normal scrolls do and the normal scroll middle click is a little harder then a standard mouse but i like it its not to hard to press but enough to prevent accidental hitting of the button when scrolling.

I have not had a problem with the scroll wheel, and I have found that the mouse as a whole is very comfortable.

Hi, I didn't know the answer until you asked the question. LOL. So I tried it on a Word doc. The answer: it scrolled both left and right, as well. That's not really a motion in my repertoire, since I tend to use the zoom (cntrl + mouse wheel) for navigation. But now that I know, thanks to your question, I'll add that capability to my arsenal. Hope this helps.

It does have a rachet feel which is very light, it is not an issue for me. Does not affect my scrolling.

The scroll wheel has a number of functions: 1. Rotate wheel to scroll up-down - works fine 2. Moving the wheel left/right (clicks left/right) to scroll left/right - works fine 3. Pressing down (click down) - this is the tricky operation because if you don't press directly downwards there is a good chance you will inadvertently activate the left/right scroll feature. The required down force is also somewhat more than the needed for the other buttons. I think that this is the nature of this mouse.

I have two of these lovely units and have never had a problem with the scroll wheel. Occasionally the ball needs cleaning, as does the socket in which it sits, but that doesn't happen very often. I like these mice so much more than the kind you have to slide around that I'll put up with almost any minor annoyance! Overall, I would rate these as 4.5 out of 5 stars. Really nice units.

I have this mouse and the wheel does not turn smoothly but has slight stopping clicks. This scroll wheel in my experience is garbage. Trying to scroll to read and it constantly jumps up and down only to return to the same position no matter how may spins and clicks. Only way to scroll is very slowly and deliberately. Make me want to throw into a wall.

The wheel is grooved and the mouse itself is heavy, so it's easy to press the wheel without scrolling or moving the pointer. It gives very little resistance when rolling, just enough that you can feel the grooves; and the wheel won't spin on its own if you flick it.

No and I'm on my second. If you push on the scroll wheel, that might make it behave strangely. Or maybe it is your OS?

I have absolutely no problem scrolling with this mouse best I ever had just use the wheel at the top of the mouse to move up or down. Make sure you have a mouse pad that is recommended for the mouse and you are good to go

You can remap the button below the scroll wheel to do about anything. I find it nice to have the separate "middle button" that isn't dependent on my trying to balance the scroll wheel to click.

My scroll wheel works just fine. I love this mouse. My only issue was the forward and back clicks on the side of the mouse. I accidently clicked them while playing my games on FB, which threw me out. But I've learned to keep my thumb under the buttons which is actually very comfortable for my hand. Hope this helps.
