I can't fault this mouse - I use it on Mac OS and Windows and its by far the best mouse I have ever owned. The movement of the mouse itself is very smooth and being able to customise the different buttons for different applications really speeds up workflow and makes it a joy to use. The near frictionless scrolling totally amazed me as I didn't discover it straight away (slide the microgear scroller on the bottom to turn on)...
Get one.... |
What a lovely, lovely, mouse.

I have been a fan of Logitech mice for over 10 years and have become accoustomed to their build quality, reliability and comfort. I use an MX 1000 on my desktop and so last week, when I acquired my first laptop, I immediately began looking for a suitable mouse. The Logitech VX Revolution stood out head and shoulders above the competition.
It arrived yesterday; I installed the drivers, plugged in the dongle and everything worked perfectly first time. Despite its 3/4 size it is a pleasure to use, the supporting software allows customisation of practically all the buttons and other things besides - and the new 'free-spinning' wheel is great innovation. (I'm told that some people are still using mice whose wheels don't even rock sideways!) All in all it's a beautiful mouse, cleverly designed and well made.
If you need a laptop mouse, can afford the investment and are prepared to pay for quality then you'd be very hard pressed to find a better way of spending your money.
Unless of course you're left-handed! |
Great!

Having not used a mouse for as long as I can remember I love how easy and intuitive this mouse is. The best 2 reasons to buy it are:
1) The Search button - Highlight a word in a document or web page, press find and it opens your search engine (you choose which) and brings up the results for the word
2) The Zoom button - Move from a 6 page view to 500% in no time at all, makes using Word/Excel/PowerPoint so easy!
3) Take out the USB dongle it turns the mouse on, put it back in, it turns it off! Great for saving battery power!
All in all, amazing value, great build am sure some other mice do this but all in all, great value! BUY ONE! |
An Excellent Mouse

After a good few months thinking and weekends scouring of the internet it came down to a choice between this mouse and Logitech's MX Revolution mouse to replace my standard one button Apple Wireless Mouse. I decided on this for both the zoom slider and the fact that it used a single AA battery rather than a built in battery.
The mouse itself is wonderful, it feels lovely in your hand and glides smoothly over any surface I've tried it on without losing anything off the extremely accurate tracking. On my iMac the buttons are completely configurable and can not only be given global settings but can application specific as well which is brilliant for games (as the mouse is overall). In addition the scroll wheel is brilliant, generally I use it in freewheel mode which is not only great for quick scrolling of pages but is sensitive enough to stop close to the line you were looking for. I didn't originally think much of this feature but it's quickly proved to be one of my favourite things about this mouse.
The size is also very good even though it is not as big as a full size desktop mouse, it's possibly a bit small for my hands but for a laptop mouse it's a good size for carrying around. The fact the the receiver also stores in the mouse itself is a massive bonus as it means you're not likely to lose it so easily.
Overall if you're looking for a first rate laptop mouse (or even desktop mouse) you would not be sorry with this one, it's not only well designed but also easy to use and very comfortable. It's not cheap but you rally do get what you pay for as you do with any Logitech product I've ever used. |
The Mary Poppins of Notebook Mice - Practically Perfect in Every Way

What a fabulous mouse - the contours fit to the hand comfortably, with a slightly textured surface at the thumb indentation for extra extra firm grip.
Slightly larger than some notebook mice, but I think this is all to the good, as it takes a certain size to provide sufficient support for the hand. However, it is still small and convenient.
Unlike the nano, which attempts to work for both left handed and right handed people (and is, in consequence, comfortable for neither), navigation keys are on the left side of the mouse, allowing navigation using the thumb.
There is also a zoom function, easily accessible on top using index finger. (On the nano, this is the position of the navigation key, there being no thumb keys, and is excruciatingly useless position for such a frequently used function). I'm not quite convinced about the zoom button though - it feels to me that it might be a little fragile. Only longer term use will show if this continues to work.
Of course, you can always switch the functions around using software, but I don't see any reason for anyone in their right mind to do so (not sure about gamers - they might have other needs. I don't know anything about that).
The scrolling options also are extremely useful, with a small switch on the bottom turning on the freewheeling function, allowing scrolling of many pages with only a flick of the finger, reducing stress.
However, one caveat: This mouse is not for left-handers. I don't know if they produce a left-handed version of this mouse, but otherwise, lefties - this product is not for you. It seems to be the price of truly ergonomic tailoring; a single mouse cannot cater to either hand.
For a right handed person like me, though, it is a joy to use. Thoroughly recommended. Enjoy! |
