Forgot Passwords: Dellβs Latest Mouse Unlocks Your PC
Dell has introduced a new business-focused wired mouse, the MS526C (Dell Pro 5 Wired Fingerprint ESS Mouse), aimed at improving workplace security and productivity. Priced at $44.99 (around βΉ3,700), the mouse is now available for purchase and is designed specifically for office users rather than gamers.
Fingerprint Login Takes Center Stage
The standout feature of the MS526C is its integrated fingerprint reader, compatible with Windows Hello. This enables password-free login, allowing users to unlock systems instantly while improving security. It is especially useful in shared workspaces and high-traffic office environments where quick and secure access is essential.

Practical Design and Reliable Performance
The mouse features a full-size ambidextrous design built for comfort during long work hours. It measures 1.6 Γ 2.4 Γ 4.6 inches and weighs about 72.9 grams. It comes with an optical sensor supporting up to 6000 DPI, offering adjustable sensitivity for both precision and speed. A 1.8-meter USB-A cable ensures stable and consistent connectivity.
Shift from Gaming to Productivity
Instead of a traditional DPI switch, Dell has integrated the fingerprint sensor into the mouse. This change highlights a clear shift away from gaming features toward security and workplace productivity.

New Keyboard and Mouse Combos
Alongside the MS526C, Dell has also launched new keyboard and mouse combo sets. The Pro 7 Slim Keyboard & Mouse set features a low-profile keyboard with scissor-switch keys and long-lasting battery life. Meanwhile, the Pro 7 Rechargeable Compact Keyboard & Mouse offers a smaller design with built-in rechargeable batteries, delivering up to three months of keyboard usage and around 1.5 months for the mouse.
