   This mouse will be shorted lived, I would not buy another Logitech makes the best keyboards/mice period.

   This mouse has odd movements, it is uncomfortable to use and its scroll wheel is a major pain it takes
   
   forever to move down in text.

   I am going to buy the Logitech because I know they work.

   For the large part, this mouse is easy to use, comfortable, and tracks nicely, although not as well as advertised. I’ve had issues using it on the carpet of a wood-grained table where it simply wouldn’t move properly. For most surfaces, it works fine and has good range, too.

   Pros: Accurate, works on most surfaces, comfortable, tiny receiver
   
   Cons: Horrible backward/forward button design, can’t redefine mouse wheel left and right click

   The design of this mouse has highs and lows. The main left and right buttons are very well designed, and go all the way to the front of the mouse (if you’ve had a mouse that doesn’t, you’ll know this makes it difficult to click when your fingers hang over the edge of the mouse a bit).

   The only critical design flaw, one which Microsoft has built into other mice as well, are the forward and back buttons. If you don’t use these, the mouse should suit you fine. If you do, they’re a pain. They put one button on identical locations on both sides of the mouse. Makes it cheap for them to build, as both left and right handed people can use it. However, both types of people will find that when just moving the mouse around, you are always hitting the button on the off side where your ring and pinky fingers hang over the edge. I had to disable this button, as I kept bringing up features accidentally. I effectively lose this button. Even if your hands are sized so that you don’t keep hitting it, it’s very difficult to find and click with your ring finger. Dumb place for the button.

   In addition, the forward and back buttons are positioned way too far forward on the mouse. You’d have to be an Orangutan to use the buttons without moving your hand forward on the mouse to press it with your thumb, then back again to continue. So now I lose the second of the two buttons.

   Logitech mouse software will let you redfine the left and right leaning click of the mouse wheel so they act as forward and backward, but Microsoft won’t. So if you want to navigate forward and backward with your mouse, you’re out of luck with this one.

   This mouse is just another mediocre prodoct. My 4 yr old logitech wireless mouse is a far superior product. And , as I said , my Logitech Mediaplay is old and far more accurate. I don’t want to say anymore about it as it would be negative anyway.

   I bought this mouse because I don’t like using the touch pad on notebooks. I’ve shied away from Logitech mainly because of bloatware. I haven’t tested the mouse on too many surfaces, but it did work on a window. The usb adapter makes it work on nearly any laptop. I’m still figuring out if I’ll actually use the side buttons, because I don’t like the placement.

   I bought this mouse only to use with my macbook pro during hearings, trials, and educational seminars. It does what it is supposed to, and the little wireless dongle is quite small and unobtrusive. At times I have left it plugged in for days or weeks at a time. The feel is okay, but not ergonomic by any stretch, but you wouldn’t expect that in a tiny little travel mouse. The bluetrack sensor is OK, but far from perfect, and the competing logitech technology is a bit better, as bluetrack has a hard time with reflective surfaces, like metal or polished wood desks.

   I like having this mouse with me when I’m traveling with my laptop, but I end up using the macbook pro’s trackpad FAR more, even when I have the mouse out. Not really this product’s fault, but the trackpad is so nice, it’s hard not to use. If you have a Macbook with the glass multi-touch trackpad you might want to steer clear of this mouse, as its unlikely to sway your away from the trackpad. If you have a different trackpad or one that is not multi-touch or that you otherwise find uncomfortable, then this mouse would make a good friend to your laptop.
