Packaging and Contents

The box details the capabilities of the Canyon OnClick 24 with clear illustrations, offering a good overview before you even unbox the product. We recommend taking a moment to study the information provided on the packaging.
Inside the box, you’ll find the essentials: the wireless mouse itself, a 60 cm USB Type-C charging cable, and a user manual.
Design, Materials, and Build Quality
The Canyon OnClick 24 stands out with its availability in four distinct colors: white, pink, blue, and a classic black. This variety ensures it appeals to a wider range of users and preferences. The reviewer personally favors the white option, while their daughter requested the pink for her birthday.
A key design feature is its symmetrical construction, making it equally comfortable for both right-handed and left-handed users. The ergonomic shape is also noteworthy, with the reviewer finding it more comfortable than their previous symmetrical mouse.
The translucent body adds a unique aesthetic appeal, making the mouse stand out from the crowd. Constructed from durable ABS plastic, the OnClick 24 is built to withstand daily use. After approximately a month of testing, the surface showed no signs of wear or scratches from less-than-gentle handling.
The lightweight design, weighing just 90 grams, is another advantage for a wireless mouse, making it ideal for extended work sessions.
On the underside, users will find Teflon feet for smooth gliding across various surfaces. The USB receiver has its own storage compartment, conveniently located under a small plastic cover. The buttons on the bottom are also plastic, while the bezel around the front-facing USB-C port is metallic.
The build quality is excellent, with precise fitting of materials and no creaks or loose parts. Canyon has delivered a product that instills confidence in its durability.
Ergonomics: Key Takeaways
As mentioned earlier, the Canyon OnClick 24 is exceptionally comfortable to use, not just within its price bracket but overall. The main left and right click buttons, positioned on either side of the scroll wheel, are not only comfortable but also remarkably quiet. This feature will be highly appreciated by those working in quiet environments.
The USB Type-C port for charging, along with its 60 cm cable, hints at pass-through charging capability, which we’ll explore further.
The bottom features two large Teflon pads for smooth gliding, the sensor, and two buttons: one for power and another for mode switching. The manufacturer’s information and markings are also located on the underside.
Connectivity and Switching
The Canyon OnClick 24 offers two connection methods: Bluetooth 5.1 for reliable, lag-free wireless performance, and a 2.4 GHz USB receiver, which is conveniently stored in the mouse’s base. Pairing via Bluetooth is straightforward: switch on the mouse, hold the top button, and search for it on your device. The 2.4 GHz connection is even simpler – just plug in the receiver and use the mode switch button on the mouse.
The ability to switch between these connections is impressively fast, allowing for seamless transitions between devices without any noticeable delay. The advertised 10-meter wireless range was also confirmed in testing.
User Experience
The precision of the 1200 DPI sensor is ideal for everyday tasks, from navigating documents to working with spreadsheets. Combined with a 125 Hz polling rate and 50g acceleration, it ensures smooth and stable cursor tracking. The quiet clicks on the main buttons further enhance the user experience, especially in shared or quiet environments.
Battery Life
The 500 mAh battery provides an impressive 3.5 weeks of mixed usage on a single charge. Furthermore, the Canyon OnClick 24 supports pass-through charging, allowing you to continue using the mouse while it’s being recharged, a highly convenient feature.
Expert Verdict
The Canyon OnClick 24 is a well-built wireless mouse that excels in comfort, connectivity, and design. Its symmetrical, ergonomic body, dual-device support with rapid switching, and distinctive translucent aesthetic make it a standout choice. Add to this a precise sensor, excellent battery life, and the convenience of pass-through charging, and you have a compelling package that offers significant value.
