User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Good for work, not for game
It is good enough for regular user, but if you want to use it to play FPS games,it will not be a good choice.

1 Star Too small and jittery…
This mouse was too small for my average sized hand and it was too jittery to use well. I suppose it was fine for short use and as long as you don’t move it too quickly. However when I used it for an hour or more my hand ached and I hated having to slow down my hand movements to allow the pointer to keep up.

I paid good money for this thing expecting it to work well but I was very unhappy and it’s now sitting in the box in some cabinet. It wasn’t smooth at all and I’ve been much happier using my old usb mouse instead, even with the annoyance of having to plug it in every time.

5 Stars works great, no complaints
Bought this to go with a Bluetooth enabled Dell Mini 9 netbook. Had it working in less than 5 minutes of opening the box (most of that was the Logitech software installation). The netbook recognizes the mouse right away and auto connects to it when I boot up.

The mouse will go into sleep mode if it’s not moved for about 10 seconds, but it wakes up and reconnects in less than a second, so no big deal.

Only downside I see is remembering to turn the mouse off when you’re finished using it (the on/off button on the bottom is way too small).

BTW, it does work on games (the few I have installed on my netbook at least), however the middle wheel is not recognized as a mappable button (I think there is a freeware app that fixes that, not sure).

Overall, nice product and I’m glad I bought it.

5 Stars Great mouse
Ok, I have used five different wireless mice, and I have to say this one is great. This is my first bluetooth or laser mouse. The bluetooth is nice because of the range. I sometimes use my laptop as a video player since it has hdmi out, and the mouse becomes the remote.

After using a laser you will never go back to optical. Laser is way better and will work on ANY surface. That includes glass, the couch, or even the carpet.

I don’t know about the battery life yet, but I have been using it a few hours a day for the last three weeks and I am still on the first pair of AAs, which seems decent to me. It says it even has a warning light for when you should replace them.

4 Stars Great Device
Its Sleek . Its Slim and it fits perfectly. Ergonomic as well as asthetic. Great match for my Aqua Blue Speck Cover for Macbook.
