Really dislike the new surface arc mouse
I have huge hands. The old arc mouse with 2 buttons and a middle slider was amazing. But now that it's one button it cannot figure out what to do with my giant fingers. It likes to treat my index finger as 2 fingers. I have had to use my phone stylus with it to verify that it was the mouse and not me.
I have already replaced it twice. Once as an exchange with another one that had the same problem, and the second time with a Surface Mobile Mouse. Though I don't like the bulkiness of the Mobile mouse in my tablet bag.

Hello
For users with larger hands, the new Surface Arc Mouse may pose challenges due to its single-button design, making it difficult to navigate comfortably. The issue of misinterpreting finger gestures, like registering one finger as two, can be a frustrating experience. Although replacing it with a Surface Mobile Mouse might help, it may feel bulky, especially when carrying a tablet. Exploring ergonomic mice designed for larger hands may provide better comfort and usability for your needs.

The new Surface Arc Mouse isn't ideal for people with large hands due to its one-button design, causing issues like misinterpreting finger gestures. After replacing it twice, you switched to the Surface Mobile Mouse, but find it too bulky for your tablet bag.
