LogitechM705 Marathon Wireless Mouse – Long 3 Year Battery Life Ergonomic Sculpted Right-Hand Shape Hyper-Fast Scrolling and USB Unifying Receiver for Computers and laptops Dark Gray (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

The Wireless mouse works great, but it will not operate with a wireless keyboard. The keyboard will not connect to the same wireless connection at the same time. I guess if you had a wired keyboard and the wireless mouse you would be in great shape.I have the same wireless mouse M 705 with my original keyboard. It appears you must purchase the keyboard and mouse in combination together so the both work together. Not a great purchase. Gave new mouse to my wife to use with her laptop computer. The laptop has an internal keyboard and not wireless.

In April 2020 I purchased this mouse as a replacement for another of the same kind. Here I am, almost exactly 3 years later, ready to buy another mouse for the same issue I had the first go-'round.First, the batteries (good ones, like Duracell) will last you as long as they promise. There's no question about their claims there. Heck, I don't even switch the mouse off when it's not in use.10/10Second, it's a surprisingly good gaming mouse. Glides nicely over just about any surface with barely a stutter to the tracking. 10/10However, if you play any PC games that have you using the middle mouse button a lot (like Sims or Cities Skylines) or use the middle click for other things frequently then you're going to find that the middle click (wheel click, or mouse 3) will not last as long as your batteries.The first marathon mouse I had was easy enough to disassemble as to bend the little metal piece that created the middle click back into shape. I was able to get a whole extra year out of it before I decided it was time to replace it for cosmetic reasons. But, this second one is manufactured differently. There is no longer a little metal piece that can be easily bent back into place. Now there is a soldered-on button and a couple of springs. I was able to get an extra couple of months by decompressing the springs, but now here I am, just shy of it's 3-year-long lifespan, in need of a new mouse because I just can't manage to play my favorite games anymore. 6.5/10Total: 8.8/10It's still a great mouse. Just wanted other to know.

I always buy this mouse for my computer and it works great! When I start to wear it out from using it too much I just buy another. Works great for gaming and office tasks. Highly recommend

Prior to purchasing this wireless mouse, I always purposely bought wired mice. However, mice have a tendency to have a short lifespan for working correctly. After reading several articles and forums and reviews of different mice, it seemed that there were far more options available when you include wireless. So, I searched high and low for a new mouse for personal (non gaming) and work usage. I wanted something that was fairly basic and that had the scroll wheel. This mouse has a button near the scroll wheel that allows you to change the speed of the scroll from incremental to free spin. I almost always use the incremental scroll, but when I need to get through a long page quickly, then I’ll switch to free spin.Since owning this mouse, I cannot yet vouch for longevity, but I can say that I am highly impressed with the mouse overall. I even bought a second one so that I can have individual mice for each of my laptops, one for work and one for personal. When sharing one mouse between two computers, sometimes the computer doesn’t recognize the wireless fob when moved to the other computer and a computer restart is needed.For personal, I pretty much use my computer for managing finances with Excel, keeping up on emails, and buying from Amazon when I need something. For work, I use the mouse with Excel, Word, Outlook, and SQL/related development.I’m now in the market for replacing my wired keyboard for a wireless one, though it is low priority. It is so much nicer not having cords in the way while working.

This is a fantastic mouse. I first used the wired model at my last firm. Some associate left it when he left the firm and I inherited it. I was immediately drawn to the infinity scroll feature as I use large spreadsheet with lots of relevant information and using that scroll feature is far more convenient than Page Up/Down or jumping around with the scroll bar in the window.When I left that firm, I was in the market to purchase my own and I went with the wireless version, the M705. Again, the infinity scroll is super convenient. The programmable buttons on the side of the mouse are great too! One thing I haven't mentioned is how well this fits in my hand. It's a good size mouse but perfect for the palm. It feels natural. It glides on all desktops. I have only run into problems with the mouse not working well on granite, glass, and oddly - paper. Not sure what it is about paper, maybe the rulings on it. Anyways, use on desks and tables since that is where I do most of my work is just fine. No complaints.The mouse boasts a 3-year battery life. I cannot attest to that as of yet, but I purchased my first M705 2 years ago and I still have the same batteries in it. The on/off switch is conveniently located on the bottom so when packing up, its easy to turn it off. The switch is set into the body of the mouse as not to easily turn on when packed away. I don't know how much more life I will get out of it but I bet I can get it to 2 1/2 years on the same batteries. You just have to make sure you turn it off at the end of your work day. I don't think its 3-years of continually staying in the on position.And that gets me to why I purchased a second M705. Well, my wife wanted a better mouse and she had used mine at home for some MBA work and mentioned that she wished she had a nice mouse, especially at her work since her colleagues have nicer devices. So I purchased this one for her. The only gripe I have with the one she got is that the infinity scroll button sticks a little bit. She has used it for a little over a month and have heard no complaints from her so far, so it must be working well for her.I have also recommended this device to all my work colleagues as well if they are in the market and heavy mouse users. We are not engineers or graphical designers or gamers, we need a mouse for spreadsheets and other financial reports, and this mouse is perfect. I 100% recommend it.

I have bought this model 5 times, 3 of those times through Amazon. Over the years, the price of this model has dropped but the look and feel has been pretty consistent.Not all of the mice are for my own use. One is for home use, and the rest for use at the office (my desk, my colleague's desk, and the boardroom). The one at my desk had to be replaced after being in use for over 6 years. As a graphic designer, I have definitely put this device through intense usage. The old one still functions but the base was worn so smooth the traction was a little wonky. I expect each one of these mice to last a very long time.My very first one of this model is still in ise at home. I would guess it is close to 10 years old if not older. I highly recommend this product. It is made for medium sized or small boned hands. It will feel immensely comfortable to grip. More comfortable than the micro/ mini mice sold for travel. More functional and also error free. All the buttons are in the right places so you don't accidentally hit buttons you don't intend to.Unlike the oldest model, these new ones have a slot for the tiny usb receiver hidden in the base of the mouse. And I would guess many people have a hard time understanding how to put in 2 batteries with one facing one direction and the other facing the opposite. This model has the 2 AA batteries inserted so they are in parallel, with the "+" facing the same way for both, and as a result, the "-" always facing the other way. Batteries are included.

Hace rato que confío en este fabricante. Compre este ratón para reemplazar un agonizante M510 de un combo MK550.Esperaba no perder las funciones de las flechas, la rueda de desplazamiento lateral entre otros. Cuando revisé que este M705 las tenía me decidí por el. Una grata sorpresa fue encontrar en los botones del pulgar mas funciones. Este ratón es mas útil y mas ergonómico que mi viejo mouse.Otra sorpresa también fue el receptor que se adaptó a mi viejo teclado. No viene con CD ni instrucciones pero querrás descargar el software setpoint y unifying de la pagina de logitech para sacarle el mayor provecho.La rueda de desplazamiento tiene giro libre o por pasos opcional. Algo muy util que me recordó un viejo MX Master que alguna vez perdí.Y el precio me parece mas que aceptable.Comencé a usar ratones de buen diseño y calidad a raíz de un malestar en los huesos de mi mano, así que compre aquel viejo MX y desde entonces, los ratones Logitech han sido mis compañeros de trabajo. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

This mouse is in a different league altogether!! You use this mouse and will forget any other mouse!! Its a bit heavy from weight perspective but I prefer heavy mice. Excellent product!! Go for it!! BTW, Windows 7 automatically detects generic drivers and installs when you connect the unifying receiver. However, I suggest you download the setpoint software available from logitech website as it will install the exact driver required by the OS. Once setpoint is installed, the mouse glides like a beauty!! Damn worth the price!! Every penny of it!! This mouse shall last you for a long long time!!

今まで、Windows PC用は2000円しないような安物を使っていたけど、今回少し奮発して購入。流石に操作はスムーズだし、とても持ちやすい。色々ボタンがあってカスタマイズもできるみたいだけど、仕事で使う分には通常のマウス機能で充分。

Fits the hand well. Efficient tracking. Easy to install
