Without doubt, this is the best mouse I’ve ever used. I previously used a Logitech M560, which was beginning to show signs of wear, and, having read the Amazon reviews of this mouse, I decided to replace the M560.

I’ve been delighted by the immediate response to the programmed buttons, which take me to three specific information sites, but I can’t pass an opinion about the mouse’s functionality for gaming because that’s not of interest to me.

I thought that the M560 was good but this is even better and I’d have no hesitation in recommending the Logitech MX Anywhere to any prospective buyer.

I have bought cheaper mice over the past few years bu they have always failed in some respect as in the scroller being erratic or buttons failing. I picker this up for 29.99 and wish i had bought another. Battery lasts me around a week of heavy usage and has a DPI of around 4000 for which you need the software to download or it defaults to 1000 which is not quick enough for me. Flies across the screen now with minimal wrist movement. You need to download Logitech options to change the DPI. Battery charges pretty quick too so no worries about being left without a mouse. Perfect size for me as I like a slightly smaller mouse.

Great mouse, very easy to configure and use. It has a very low profile making it ideal for travelling as it won’t take up much space. Despite its slim profile, I actually didn’t find it difficult or uncomfortable to use. I mainly got it for the rechargeable battery, and the battery life so far appears adequate.

I prefer the wheel system on the MX master, and I thought it had it according to the description. It still has a “freeable” wheel but without the inertia effect of the MX master.

No particular issue otherwise – it’s just a good mouse.

Works better on Linux due to the absence of the Logitech bloatware and a better default layout with the middle button. Also, surprisingly, the low battery notification works automatically on Linux by default (Ubuntu-derived, I didn’t try on Kali or CentOS etc.).

Tech support at logitech is appalling. Most of us have experienced being sent around the houses by support services, asked to repeat what you have already said. As a software professional I am not easily fobbed off, but Logitech support really are the worst I have ever experienced in my career and personal life. I ended up with transcripts of chat messages, and lots of emails which were copied into a letter to their CEO and head of customer service. The emails painted a damning picture of just how insulting and time wasting their tech support are – it seems like they are playing games at the expense of the customer. There is no escalation, no oversight and the agents are having a laugh at customers expense.

Dreadful, really really utterly utterly appalling professionalism and a disgrace to the good profession of customer service.

However, some of their products are good.

I was initially going to return this mouse because it felt too small but a few more frustrating hours with my broken MS mouse and little luck finding something else that appealed, I decided to take it for a dry run. Plugging the dongle into W10 (latest updated) and the mouse was recognised for wireless instantly. I didn’t install the software because I’m already running X-Mouse Button Control and these seems to work. I simply configured the additional buttons of the MX to perform the functions I wanted and was away.

I will stress again that the mouse is too small. The tips of my fingers rest just on the end of the buttons and my wrist touches the desk and I have small / medium hands for men’s gloves. Both old old MS mouse (came with the keyboard) and the MS Bluetooth Sculpt before that filled the hand much better.

The bad done, the good is why the mouse is staying. It has lots of buttons and they are not that difficult to use despite the size. And the buttons are smooth to use – almost touch sensitive. As the computer is a key part of my job, the full range of buttons makes completing common tasks quicker and painless. The mouse oozes quality, from the feel in your hand, to the decent weight to the smooth & very accurate tracking across my multiple monitors.

This mouse does lots more – which would explain the normally high price tag. It was on the Black Friday Sale and at just shy of 30, is worth the money. I can live with the size for its otherwise and excellent mouse.

I’ve got large hands and although a small mouse it is my favorite. I work in IT an have tried several different mice. This model being rechargeable is good. It is a major improvement on the previous model that has a problem with the mouse button micro switchs that go wrong after a lot of use. Working on any surface is very useful. I have noticed mouse tracking becomes a little erratic when in my case used on a wooden table top for weeks, I suppose it is a build up of oils from my skin on the wood, a good scrub of the table with detergent fixes the problem. Although a right handed mouse, the forward and back buttons are on the left, I use it in my left hand with no problems.
I had three of the old model each of which had the mouse button problem. I bought the new model for my wife as well as myself and we both use our mouse every day. We have had no button problems after several months of use. They use a different micro switch in the new model, I’ve taken both models apart just to know.
I lot more expensive than some other mice, but worth it.
I am happy to recommend this mouse.

I use the mouse in office, which is easily 8+ hours a day and about 50/50 mouse keyboard usage. I exclusively use the dongle, no BT. Initially I charge it every week. But then I forgot and just used the mouse without charging. From memory, it must have lasted about 3 months before it stopped. It has been so long that I forgot the mouse has internal battery and I was looking for an opening to put a new pair of AAs in! Battery life is definitely exceeding expectation.

The scroll wheel in free scroll mode is excellent as I often have long files to browse through. However, I feel the mid button should be placed ahead of the wheel instead of below. This mouse is not big and clicking the low offset mid button is not too natural.

I don’t use gesture or need to remap the buttons so i only briefly used the software. It was ok, not amazing. But I use it in the office without any Logitech special software and it has been flawless. Default settings of the buttons are as expected so this is good.

A solid 4.5 * if I can rate it. But will round it down as I feel the mid mouse button is really not that comfortable, please move it to the front of the mouse!

Pros:
– Battery life is amazing – lasts me easily more than 3 months on a single charge (could be 4 or 5, I kind of forget when I last charged it, so am going conservative) with Heavy use (average of 9-10 hours developer work + gaming a day).
– Design – some might say it’s on the small side, but for a frequent traveler with a lot of gadgets in my backpack, this is the perfect size. Buttons are nice – not too noisy, and just the right amount of travel. The now standard extra function of the wheel where you can click to make it spin freely, is a good addition. I don;t really use the resolution setting button, but it’s nice to know I have the option.
– Performance – works very accurately and truly on any surface. The black laser was one of the main reasons I bought this thing, and it’s doing it’s job.
– Flexibility – I do use this with more than one device, and while the placement of the button is not ideal, being ale to just use the same mouse on up to three devices is really nice.
Cons:
– Pairing using Bluetooth is so hard as to almost not be usable. NOt sure if this is Windows’ fault or Logitech not having good drivers, but this needs to be fixed.

Overall: I’d say this is a pretty good mouse for pretty much anyone, but especially travellers looking for a durable, reliable and flexible mouse on the road.

The “Logitech MX Anywhere 2 AMZ Wireless Bluetooth Mouse for Windows and Mac – Black” is a smaller and lighter alternative to the MX Master and older, discontinued MX Performance products both of which had seen in their turn considerable personal use over many years. Each was used for several hours daily and saw rather more use, and perhaps a degree of abuse, than most users’ mice will probably ever see. The series is known to be reliable and excellent performers.

The MX Anywhere is of a more normal design, lacking the left-hand-side extension that provides considerable comfort in use, while losing some of its shaping bias towards right-handed use and a little bulk and weight in the process. It also lacks the left thumb wheel and utilises larger forward and back buttons. In addition to supporting Bluetooth, it includes and can use Logitech’s Unifying Receiver. It is rechargeable via the provided micro-USB lead. A full charge of about 2.5 hours from flat can provide for several weeks’ of light-to-moderate use but up to three weeks’ of personal heavier usage. A quick 4-minute charge will give a full day of average use. There is a single LED bar below the Mode Change button and scroll wheel to indicate the charge level during charging; it flashes during charging but gives no indication of remaining charge until close to depletion and is solid green when complete.

In shape it is almost ambidextrous although the controls are clearly for right-handed use. It is of reasonable size, neither large enough to be awkward or inconvenient nor too small or too slim to be unusable; it is significantly lower in height than the MX range and flatter in profile front-to-rear. It could be a ‘universal’ mouse for family use as it more child-friendly or be reserved for use with a laptop as it is more easily transported.

Purchased from a ‘Deal’ at a significant saving, part of which is attributable to its ‘For Amazon’ branding.

Excellent (so far, anyway): light, responsive, rechargeable. “nano” receiver is about as small as it can go. It’s a bonus that you can pair this with multiple computers (as long as they have a “unifying” receiver).

On which subject – the mouse failed to connect, until I ran the software and forced a connection. It’s supposed to connect once you press the button and install the receiver, but it just kept on flashing. If you have this problem, download and install the Logictech Unifying Software before trying to install.

The software that comes with it is poor – it gets the job done, but the interface is not intuitive and there is no obvious indication that what you’ve specified has been accepted. And if you don’t run it as administrator, half of the options are missing – but nowhere does it tell you this.

I stick with Logitech because of the performance – the mouse tracks on just about anything. But historically, the build quality has been fairly dismal. I have a Logitech wireless compact keyboard as well, which sort of ties me to the brand. If anyone else comes along with a similar combination that doesn’t suffer from the quality issues, I’m happy to jump ship.

This is my third or fourth MX mouse- you really have to regard them as a consumable, as they die relatively quickly – think of it more like rental than purchase. The switches go, or the scroll wheel becomes intermittent. Let’s see if this has any better build quality. I’m docking it a star for the poor software and the historic fragility.

I love my logitech peripherals so when I saw this on an Amazon pre Prime day deal, I couldn’t resist. I have a lot of Logotech devices and they’ve never let me down, so it was well worth a try. I have been after a wireless mouse for my notebook that had more than the normal two buttons and a scroll wheel.

This mouse has two extra buttons I was hoping for plus a fourth which once the MX Anywhere 2 software has been installed can be configured to be anything from a gesture button (new to me) to play/pause, calculator, cortana etc. and multimedia features as well as a whole host fo other features. The gesture button is amazing, press and drag up, down, left, right for start menu, show hide desktop, switch between virtual desktops. You can also customise them and map them to whatever you want.

The mouse itself is very comfortable to use as with all logitechs. It is quite small and discreet as with any portable device but not too small to be uncomfortable. It has just enough weight to stay on the desk comfortably but isn’t too heavy. There is a strong magnet, presumably to keep the nano receiver safe.

Other features are rechargeable battery which charges really fast, two hours, and lasts months. If you don’t have a free slot for the receiver you can also connect it by bluetooth, so for example at work where I’m not allowed to connect my own nano but can connect bluetooth devices, this is a handy getaround.

It comes with a usb cable for charging which has it’s own cable strap to keep it tidy, and when plugged in it can carry on charging and still be used. Overall in terms of versatility it is the most useful mouse I’ve had from logitech yet. I have been trying out wireless mice for the last year trying to find a good one and this looks like my perfect solution. So glad it was on sale.
