Comfy and easy setup
At first I wasn’t really sure about the shape of this mouse because it was a lot different than my old one that I used for many years. But after using it for a few weeks, I really do like it a lot more than my old one! It feels a lot more sleek and I guess “expensive” than others that I’ve used. It’s a nice material and actually a really good size and very comfortable. I have kind of small hands so it may be different for other people, but for me it is a nice shape. I also really like that it goes to sleep after not being used for a bit. In my experience it isn’t too quick – I’ve only noticed it going to sleep after around 10 minutes of inactivity? It may be shorter, but I don’t notice. I haven’t used it enough to see how the battery lasts, but so far it’s been just fine. It works perfectly on the screen, I don’t think its too slow or unresponsive. It’s fast and connects with ONLY bluetooth, not with a little usb you plug in, which I like because I have limited ports. For a cheaper mouse it’s definitely a very comfy mouse and a good buy!

5 Stars – Smooth, Responsive, and Super Convenient!
I recently purchased this wireless mouse, and Iâm absolutely loving it! The setup was incredibly easy â just plug in the USB receiver, and I was good to go. No software installation needed! The connection is flawless, with no lag or drops in signal, and it works seamlessly on both my laptop and desktop.The design is sleek and comfortable to hold, even for long hours of use. The buttons are responsive, and the scrolling wheel is smooth and precise, making it perfect for both work and casual browsing. The fact that itâs wireless means no more tangled cords, and the battery life is impressive too â Iâve been using it for weeks without needing to change the battery.Overall, this wireless mouse is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable and user-friendly device. Highly recommend!

Works well
Hahaha don’t tell my boss but I use it to go on my phone during work. It’s fairly quiet, Not too heavy or light, and very easy to use. You just turn it on, connect it to your phone (or other Bluetooth compatible device) then it’s a smooth, responsive, mouse. The size is perfect for a nice fit.

Home and Travel, it works
This is a great alternative to Microsoft mice which I prefer for some reason. I’ve had many many Logitech products over 40+ years in IT fields both in the office and 27 years of working remotely. These Logitech mice are decent cost effective mice in most cases and this one is no exception – it works as designed, connects with no problem, etc.. Issues crop up related to longevity/planned obsolescence. I prefer MS mice when on sale, otherwise 1 or 2 Logitechs within every 18 months of so and all is well. So in the end a nice choice for the price and time limitations you may have.

Inexpensive, very nicely designed, and works so well!
I first bought a black one and liked it so much that I replaced my other mouse that needed a small USB receiver with a pink one to match my Logi small pink keyboard and they matched perfectly! These Logi bluetooth mouse are very simple and easy to use and they glide perfectly without having to readjust their position on the surface once in a while. They work on pretty much any surface! I finally found a mouse that is well made and inexpensive! So happy with my purchase!

I am pleasantly surprised by this low-priced Bluetooth mouse. It fits well in the hand, clicks are silent, wheel motion smooth. Cursor movement is very accurate and lag-free. And, the USB dongle is no longer required, saving a port on my computer.

Just be aware that this mouse is not compatible with Windows 7. It does work on a newer laptop in the house, so I am keeping it. Otherwise, great mouse, comfortable, light. Worked right away.

Really like it! –
The connection with my MacBook was easy. As it says in the description doesnât need a dongle or any usb device. The only things that I didnât like is the mouse is not silent. But for the price is pretty good.
