Laser mouse

Advantages: nice color
Disadvantages: doesn't work on Vista

...DISAPPOINTED! Buttons and wheel DON'T work on Vista!!! Very disappointed with functional view of this mouse. Drivers are provided only for Windows 2000/XP. No special driver for Vista, although it holds Microsoft WHCL designed for Vista Logo! I would expect at least scroll to work in MS Explorer when using the mouse wheel. Mouse has 5 special buttons and none of them is supported in Vista (read as none of them works). What to say about the mouse. For me it is not a mouse, it is a piece of sheet attached to the cord. I bought it with an average, brand new PC and I am very satisfied with the PC, but not with the mouse. I will take it back to the shop, but I don't think, they will take want to take it back. My honest advice: DON'T BUY THIS MOUSE, if you are using Windows Vista, since it's a scam. Support from Trust sucs - they won...

Hp Laser Mouse - Glide with HP

Advantages: It Works
Disadvantages: It's just the basic mouse, no thrills

... HP USB Laser Mouse Introduction Continuing on my theme of objects that I use at work, the HP USB laser mouse, and a fine mouse indeed it is. Laser mice were initially pioneered by Sun Micro Systems in 1998 but did not gain prominence in the market till 2004 with Logitech. Since then it has dominated the mice market. Improvements from Medieval Mice Its major advantage was not having a ball which aided in two ways: a) the ball would no longer attract filth like a feather duster on a cat, thus improving on performance and b) school children could not steal the little ball inside. The other major benefit was its ability to work without a mouse pad meaning that the ?novelty mouse pad? market deceased as quickly as it started. It also has the ability to work on nearly any surface, including chair arms, jeans...

Logitech G5 Laser Mouse - Perfect for gamers!

Advantages: Very comfortable grip, extremely smooth across the mouse mat
Disadvantages: May be considered expensive to some - but not if you want a great mouse!

...I first got into online gaming about 3 years ago and didn't have a clue about specific gaming keyboards and mice. I was happily playing with the 'standard' mouse that came with my PC until I upgraded my whole set up and decided that as I was gaming more frequently I needed a specific gaming mouse. Logitech are renowed for their gaming equipment and after hours of research on the internet decided the Logitech G5 Laser Mouse was exactly what I needed. I loved the look of this mouse from the moment I saw it but as my hands are not that big (i'm a girl after all!) I was slightly concerned that the mouse wouldn't feel as comfortable as the smaller mouse did that I'd had before. It also looked a little heavier than my previous mouse but looks can be deceiving! I first used the mouse to surf the Net to get used to it and I was extremely...

Logitech G5 Laser Mouse

Advantages: Customisable DPI, Interchangeable weights, Smooth to use
Disadvantages: Right hand specific

...I bought this mouse about 2 years ago to replace my age-old wireless MicroSoft mouse, which was finally biting the dust after a lengthy life in service. I chose this mouse over the (at the time) over the Logitech MX 518 because of the added benefits of having a high DPI laser mouse for gaming. The weight of the mouse is customisable by means of inserting small (4.5g and 1.7g) weights into a neat little cartridge that lives underneath the mouse. This was one of the best things with this mouse as it allowed me to keep the same weight and feel of my old wireless one - very handy not having to get used to another mouse again! The software that comes on CD is easy to install and use. It allows you to set 5 different DPI settings (changeable from the mouse) as opposed to the 3 default ones if you don't install the software...

Great Value Laser Mouse

Advantages: Smooth, Great Looks, Batteries Last Ages, Magnifier
Disadvantages: Side Buttons Can Be Pressed Accidentally

...I was looking for a laser mouse to play games with mostly as they are smoother than optical mouses and came across this one and couldn't believe the price for a Microsoft product. There are many gaming laser mouses that are more expensive but I found this one perfect for a gamer on a budget. When I received the product I couldn't believe all the different features it had. The first thing I recognized though from using it was the smoothness. It was so much easier to use than an optical mouse. The software supplied is also very easy to install and helps you to set up all the different functions. The scroller also works really well and can go in four different directions. You may think this is pointless but when you have its amazing all the different things you use it for. One thing I found it was good with was Excel documents when you...

Microsoft Laser Mouse

Advantages: Easy to Use,Good technology
Disadvantages: Price and Colour

...I bought this mouse as one of my friends recommended this to me because it is a laser mouse which means that it is has more accuracy and control with the use of advanced laser technology. It is also wireless too which was handy too as i dislike having too many wires and since this is made from microsoft, it seemed like a good choice. The feautures and unique selling points of this include the following: - Wireless Freedom - Ergonomic Design - Rubber-Sided Grip - Customizable Buttons - Smart Receiver - Cutting-Edge Design - Designed for Notebook PCs - Scroll Wheel - Four Customizable Buttons - 4-Button Mouse In terms of usage it is very good and easy to use as it is very precise and is comfortable to use with either hand for long durations. I paid £26 for mine at my local...

Logitech G5 Laser Mouse

Advantages: Very responsive, fits nicely into my hand...
Disadvantages: The adjustable weight system seems superfluous for my needs...

...Basically, I bought the G5 as an update to my MX518 (another excellent mouse in my opinion) because of the higher responsiveness. I've had the mouse for about 3 months now but am still a bit unsure of what to do with the weights. I've put a few in, taken 'em out, put 'em back again and I just can't tell the difference... I'm probably a klutz. I love the textured finish and as a right-hander everything falls into place perfectly but feel sorry for the left-handers out there who'd like to use one. No problems using it, it does exactly what I expect of it and more, the software works perfectly and is easy to use. In my case I was very fortunate in that I bought my G5 when it was available under a local promotion of Logitech products, so from a value for money perspective it represents excellent value (about half price). In most respects...

Review of Logitech G5 Laser Mouse mouse

Cheap Laser mouse

Advantages: Cheap, laser, good battery life when working correctly.
Disadvantages: Unrealible, bad scrolling system

...I brought this mouse as I thought it was a good, cheap laser mouse, with 2.4GHz wireless! But, it hasn't been the mouse reliable... Brought brand new from eBay, when I first got it, it didn't seem to like me, it kept cutting off, eating batterys, not good movement... So I sent it back... When I got it back, it worked fine for a while, but now the scrolling is messed up! I can not scroll down pages very well, as when I scroll the wheel down, the page goes down a bit, then fires back up! I also managed to break the battery cover, so now it is blue tacked on (the answer to everything!). It is fairly heavy, so it isn't too bad for playing games, and as it is laser, it is pretty acurate. So, this is a cheap mouse, but is unrealible. To be honest, you would be better off spending a bit more on a bigger brand name, which is more realible......

Logitech G5 Laser Mouse - The Gamers Mouse

Advantages: Customisable weight, 2,000dpi provides the highest sensitivity available
Disadvantages: Designed for right-handers, Can be unresponsive on some mouse mats

...When I got my new computer a few months ago, I received a very tacky wireless mouse with it. Immediately, I started searching for a new mouse and as I enjoy playing games, I went for this, the Logitech G5. Basically, this mouse is designed for gamers as you can tune the sensitivity for different uses. You can also customise the weight of the mouse to your liking. The mouse comes with a small tin that contains eight 1.7g and eight 4.5 g weights. The weight cartridge is on the underside of the mouse so all you have to do is pick the weight you want and then slide the tray in the cartridge opening. Changing the weight isn't the only customisable feature this mouse comes with though for there are two buttons placed under the scroll wheel. These two buttons enable you to alter the sensitivity of your mouse. The standard is set to 800...

Review of Logitech G5 Laser Mouse mouse

Top-notch laser mouse is basically perfect

Advantages: Cordless, laser, buttons, stylish
Disadvantages: Buttons not 100% customisable, 3rd mouse-button tricky to press

...- in just the right way. The scroll-wheel is a good one. It is not clunky, which many other mice fail on, but rolls smoothly whilst still having clear 'notches' between each movement. The wheel is completely smooth but slightly rubbery so your finger can roll it easily. It can also be tilted left and right to scroll left and right as well as the normal up and down. Lastly it can be pushed in directly to act as a "third" mouse-button. On this point I have found that it is very easy to accidentally scroll left or right when you mean to click the third button, and it takes a bit of practice to get used to the right way to push it. The mouse uses a laser to track movements, which is a feature frequently underestimated. This is two stages up from a roller-ball mouse. Such mice will only work on good mouse-mats. Next up is the optical mouse...
