iMICE W540 Wireless Mouse | Dual-Mode Bluetooth and 2.4GHz, Rechargeable Cell, Adjustable DPI

Cursor control that stays quiet in shared Nairobi offices, university libraries, and late-night home desks.


Condition: New




Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice



The iMICE W540 Wireless Mouse is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 3,000, brand new and sealed, at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The W540 connects two ways: through the bundled USB nano receiver over 2.4GHz, or directly over Bluetooth to a tablet or newer laptop. Three sensitivity steps run 800, 1200, and 1600 DPI. A built-in lithium cell recharges by cable instead of consuming AA batteries every few weeks. Silent left and right switches keep the iMICE W540 usable in rooms where clicking carries.

Accountants closing month-end books, university students in JKUAT and Strathmore libraries, call-centre agents on shared floors, and remote workers typing beside a sleeping household all run into the same two problems with cheap mice: the clicking noise annoys everyone nearby, and the battery dies at the worst moment. The W540 answers both. Muted switches cut audible click noise substantially, and the rechargeable cell tops up from any laptop USB port or phone charger. Field staff moving between Nairobi CBD offices and county sites also get one mouse that pairs with two devices without carrying a spare receiver.

Most mice sold around KSh 3,000 in Kenya offer a single 2.4GHz link and swallow AA cells. The iMICE W540 adds Bluetooth pairing and a built-in rechargeable battery at the same money, which is why it moves quickly off our shelves. Customers consistently report that the quiet switches make the biggest daily difference, particularly in open-plan offices along Waiyaki Way and Upper Hill. At Mascom International, we are seeing office managers buy the W540 in batches of five and ten for whole departments. Come test the click feel and grip yourself at our Kimathi Street shop, or order the iMICE W540 for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.

Common Questions About the iMICE W540 Wireless Mouse

Is the iMICE W540 worth KSh 3,000 in Kenya's market?
Yes, mainly because of what it removes from your running costs. A KSh 3,000 mouse using AA cells costs another KSh 200 to KSh 400 every month or two in replacements. The W540 charges from a cable, so that spend disappears. You also get Bluetooth pairing, which most mice under KSh 3,500 in Nairobi shops still skip. For students, admin staff, and home-office workers, the mix of quiet switches, three sensitivity steps, and no battery shopping makes the price sensible.

How does the W540 connect to a laptop, tablet, or phone?
Two routes. Slide the bottom switch to 2.4GHz, plug the nano receiver into a USB-A port, and the mouse works within seconds with no driver download. For Bluetooth, slide the switch to the Bluetooth position, hold the pairing button until the indicator flashes, then select the mouse in your device's Bluetooth menu. Laptops without USB-A ports, such as newer MacBooks and thin ultrabooks, use the Bluetooth route directly. Switching between two paired devices takes one press.

How long does the iMICE W540 battery last on one charge?
iMICE rates its rechargeable W-series mice at roughly one to two weeks of typical office use per full charge, with a charge taking about two hours. Real figures depend on hours of daily movement and whether any indicator light stays on. The mouse sleeps after several minutes of inactivity and wakes on the first click or movement. You can keep working while it charges, so a flat battery never stops your day. 

Are the clicks quiet enough for an open office or library?
Yes. The left and right buttons use muted micro switches that replace the sharp snap of a standard mouse with a soft, low tap. In practice you hear the movement of your hand more than the button. Staff on shared floors in Westlands and Upper Hill, students in university reading rooms, and anyone working near a sleeping baby notice the difference within minutes. The scroll wheel click is quieter than a standard mouse but not completely silent.

What do the three DPI settings actually change?
DPI means dots per inch, or how far the cursor travels for a given hand movement. At 800 DPI the cursor moves slowly, which suits detailed work such as selecting cells in Excel or editing images. At 1200 DPI you get balanced everyday speed for email, browsing, and documents. At 1600 DPI the cursor crosses a large or dual-screen setup with a short flick. A button behind the scroll wheel cycles the three steps without any software.

Does the W540 work with Windows, macOS, Android, and iPad?
Yes. The 2.4GHz receiver works as a plug-and-play USB device on Windows 7 through Windows 11, macOS, Linux, and Chrome OS with no driver installation. Bluetooth mode covers macOS, iPadOS, Android tablets and phones supporting mouse input, and Windows laptops with built-in Bluetooth. Side buttons register as browser back and forward on Windows; on macOS and iPadOS their behaviour depends on your settings. Kenyan customers most often pair it with HP, Lenovo, Dell, and Apple laptops.

Can I use the iMICE W540 for gaming?
For casual play, yes. Sandbox titles, strategy games, browser games, and older PC titles run fine at 1600 DPI. Competitive shooters are a different matter: serious FPS players need 3200 DPI or higher, a polling rate above 125Hz, and a wired or low-latency wireless link. The W540 is built for office and study work rather than ranked matches. Mascom International stocks dedicated gaming mice from other brands if that is your main use.

How does it compare to a Logitech M170 or M240?
The Logitech M170 costs less but runs on a single AA cell, uses standard clicky switches, and offers 2.4GHz only at a fixed 1000 DPI. The Logitech M240 adds Bluetooth and quiet clicks but usually sells above KSh 3,500 in Nairobi and still uses a replaceable AA battery. The iMICE W540 sits between them on price while including rechargeable power, dual pairing, quiet switches, and adjustable sensitivity. Logitech holds the edge on long-term brand support and build consistency.
