Logitech M185 Wireless Mouse 910 003888 Reviews Summary

Size and Design

Pros:

• "It fits her hand, always connected to the laptop."
• "It is also small enough to be a travel mouse."
• "The M185 fits nicely into my hand."
• "It's quite small, so if you have larger hands or long fingers, it's not as ergonomic. I have small hands and it's perfect for me."
• "This is probably the most comfortable mouse I've ever purchased."
• "The mouse is good quality, works well and I like the ability to easily store the transmitter usb in the back of the mouse."
• "These mice are great. Battery life is good as I hard ever have to change the battery and I forget to turn it off from time to time."

Cons:

• "The mouse works O K but is mighty small. Probably best suited for cases when portability is your prime consideration or when children will be the prinicipal users."
• "The housing is slick and the mouse is smaller than what I would like."
• "M185 is looking almost like M240... It's noisy clanky. Looks cheap, feels cheap, very lightweight (inconveniently lightweight)."
• "I can see how it could be a bit too small for someone with large hands though."
• "But if you have a large hand you’ll be at a slight disadvantage."
• "I have small woman's hands and this mouse just feels too small and makes my palm cramp when I use it."
• "But unless you have doll hands, it probably won't be comfortable."

Battery and Connectivity

Pros:

• "I use it at least 8 hours a day, 5 days a week and have never had to change batteries since buying it a few months ago."
• "I have several Logitech mice and they all get great battery life."
• "With this version, all I had to do was plug the dongle into a free USB port and, voila....it worked."
• "This mouse has invisble optics, which means the bottom doesnt light up and there's no indication whether the mouse is running (apart for the on/off switch). This also means extended battery life."
• "I am still using the battery it came with from I got it."
• "Any rechargeable AA battery works fine and provides many hours of use on a single charge."
• "The battery will last for years even while leaving it on."

Cons:

• "This mouse had no issues until ten months in. Despite changing the battery - multiple times - it simply quit functioning."
• "The Logi Mouse was easy to install and worked really well until after a bit of use, it would stop working and I'd have to replace the battery more & more frequently."
• "One week after I purchased this item it stopped working."
• "Five months down the track and it was depleted, In the past week I have been going through batteries on a daily basis."
• "The stupid thing goes through two AAA batteries every week."
• "Battery stopped working after a short time."
• "every time I turn on the laptop the mouse is not synced and I have to unplug and plugin again, or plugin somewhere else, or remove battery."

Performance and Durability

Pros:

• "This is responsive (maybe a bit too responsive, but I'll get used to it), and so far connects immediately."
• "They can take quite a bit of damage from drops and falls without any issues."
• "I use this mouse for my laptop, and a second one for my tv, connected to the computer. I often drop my cordless mouse onto the hardwood floor when moving it around, so I have been in search of a mouse designed for impact. I haven't found such a mouse, but this one I have dropped a few times and it continues to work perfectly."
• "Mouse is robust, has a good solid feel, and works well for gaming too!"
• "I've accidentally smashed the receiver on things more times than I can remember and it's just now after about 5-6 years of use starting to have a little trouble connecting to my laptop."
• "This is a very accurate mouse. It gives you fine accuracy when you move slowly, but a quick flick can send me right where I want to be on my other monitor without ever picking up the mouse."
• "Connects quickly, is lightweight, tracks precisely, scrolls smoothly, and has no unnecessary buttons."

Cons:

• "The other two that didn't work would require multiple clicks to get an action."
• "No warranty. No help from Logitech."
• "The scrolling wheel is a little flimsy, but not in a way that will detract from the 'user experience'."
• "The high end mouse wouldn't keep its position on an active screen and kept jumping the screen back and forth."
• "This is the worst mouse I ever bought. it always lost control/signal."
• "After 4 months the scroll wheel stopped working and now it is jumping all over my screen."
• "Over-sensitive right button makes it impossible to use... Logitech's customer service tried, but couldn't help me."
