Let’s see what’s in a Microsoft Razor Habu mouse designed in 2006 …
↓↓↓ Complete description, time index and links below ↓↓↓

I got that mouse as a present from a friend back in 2007. It served me well for about 15 years, but then a wire broke within the USB cable. Since some of its plastic (silicon?) parts show extended UV damage I didn’t bother to repair it.

So instead we will take it apart in this video and have a looksee what’s under its hood. Spoiler alert: There’s not a single Microsoft specific part in that mouse. Maybe that’s why that mouse was so good 😉
