Advantages: Smooth, fast, sensitive, looks cool, isn't cordless so no battery to worry about
Disadvantages: Isn't cordless so can limit movement, not for left handed people

...When it comes to mice, no company makes them better than Logitech. In fact, they also do the best web cams and keyboards in the entire world. If Microsoft came out with a 3 button mouse, Logitech would come out with a 4 button mouse. If Microsoft gave their mice curves and called it "Alice", Logitech would give their mice curves, call their mice "Rachel", and put make up on it. You get the picture. So what makes this mouse I am reviewing unique? It looks like a mouse, it works like a mouse, hell it's not even cordless! But that's the beauty of this mouse you see... because it's not cordless it can use its special functions without fear of battery drainage. I shall divulge its magical powers later in this op. Being corded means that there is no battery life to worry about, but that does mean movement is restricted slightly. Still, what... Read review

Advantages: Great reliable and perfect laptop /desktop buddy.
Disadvantages: Conflicts with one piece of 3rd party software. - explained later.

...INTRODUCTION : Having purchased a laptop last summer, I liked the touch pad, but have you ever tried playing games like UNREAL TOURNAMENT 2003 ? ( btw...www.ciao.co.uk/UnrealTournament2003PCReview5425564 ) So this being impossible I needed something better. And having used the Microsoft optical mice at college, and liking the whole not having a ball to move about ( although some people still used mouse mats under them which always amused me ) but hating the lame and rather retro design I was pointed onto LOGITECH, oh which a relation had one of their mice, used it everyday for 5years with NO problems. So I thought I’d try it out. As always here is the products home site : http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/DE/EN,CRID=3,CONTENTID=6952 As Logitech do a Varity of products ranging from... Read review

Advantages: good all round mouse
Disadvantages: none

...Logitech Optical Mouse RX250 Logitech are quite well known for making mainly gaming devices to go into various platforms as well as making keyboards, speakers and mouse's for pc's and laptops. They do specialize a little in gaming mouse's for laptops however this mouse could really just be used for anything. Because this mouse is a cool white colour, it doesn't only look modern but it could also go very well with a mac computer if you have one as it would be a lot cheaper and id say better then a mac mouse is. If you don't however this still goes into your laptop and your computer with no trouble and looks pretty cool too. The mouse feels smooth to the touch and it also quite small and fits perfectly into the palm of your hand. Its east to move around and it very precise too. Its an optical mouse which I thinks important... Read review

Advantages: Battery indicator
Disadvantages: shape, flaky sample

...The Logitech LX5 Cordless Optical Mouse consists of two parts. The transmitter which connects to the PC's mouse port and the mouse itself. OK, three parts - a driver CD too. Installation is straight forward and you can use it without the driver CD but it does add a few extra features so is worth installing. The transmitter has a USB connector but Logitech have included a USB to PS/2 adaptor to ensure it works with all PCs. One nice feature is the battery warning lamp. Wireless keyboards and mice can be a pain when the batteries die so having a warning indicator to give you time to get more is a boon. In use, I found it rather small in my palm and I don't have very big hands. I had to adopt a slightly different way of resting my hand on it but it soon became natural so not a huge deal. People with bigger hands may struggle though... Read review

Advantages: Tonnes of functions via the 8 buttons. High quality laser
Disadvantages: Software on CD is a bit over the top

...The Logitech MX 500 is the first optical mouse I have owned personally. Having used a couple of different brands at work, I was aware that the quality of these devices differed greatly between manufacturers. I paid £30 for this mouse when I bought it a couple of years ago so you should be able to pick them up for a lot cheaper now. --Whats in the box-- On opening the box, you will find the mouse itself with its extension cable and usb connector, a ps/2 style adapter which connects to the usb end of the mouse to allow it to be connected to the old ps/2 style interface, a quick installation guide and a cd which includes various software such as logitech updates, the logitech desktop and some various other mouse software which is not required. --Setup and Installation-- If you are using the mouse with the usb interface...

Advantages: Perfect grip, precize move, great on-click response
Disadvantages: I haven't found any

...of Genius (I've always liked their products, too, not only mice) I thought a tiny red optical Genius would do the job. Well it did, for a while. The first annoying thing I noticed was it got sweat+dirt-stained VERY quickly. Don't get this wrong, I'm a clean kind of person, but still, my fingers seemed to leave amazing amount of mess on the shiny surface. The mouse seemed to ignore the button-click every now and then and when it started to have navigation issue, I dumped it and went to get myself a serious mouse. The disadvantage when buying a mouse is that mostly you can't try it yourself before you buy, but I wasn't let down this time. I've decided for this Logitech mouse coz it fits my hand and the design is smart slash elegant, doesn't have loads of extra side buttons which would only be in my way (and likely to be pushed by mistake) and I...

Advantages: Extra precision, good ergonomics
Disadvantages: Mouse cursor may fly off to the sides, tech support iffy

...I was looking for a nice replacement for my old Logitech mouse (never been swayed for any type!) and found a nice deal on a Dual-Optical Logitech mouse. It has 3 buttons plus the standard mouse-wheel/middle button affair. The third button is placed under the thumb assuming you are left-handed. While not left-handed, it feels comfortable in the left hand and the third button falls under my little finger. It is quite precise, an important thing in Digital Art and of course computer games! The mouse wheel has a nice rotation feel - not too clicky/bumpy, but just clicky enough for you to know that you are indeed turning that wheel. My one problem with this mouse is that at random times the mouse cursor will fly off to one of the edges of the screen, quite frequently to the top left hand side. So if I'm attempting to close...
