Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX Review

Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX Review

Logitech, which has long been one of the better known and most respected names in computer accessories, has launched a brand new technology with their Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX.  It’s called Darkfield Laser Technology and it’s available with the all-new Performance Mouse MX as well as the Anywhere Mouse MX.  The Performance MX is a full-sized wireless unit while the Anywhere MX is a smaller, ‘portable’ wireless model.  Both are unique in the industry.

While there are actually thousands of computer mice available on the market, these are the only two made to work on any surface without employing the use of a mouse pad.  This includes glass tables, polished stone countertops, highly polished wood surfaces and even carpeting.  Surfaces that leave other mouse cursors jumping or just plain immovable are no problem with the Darkfield system.

Overall rating:

But that’s just the beginning for this top end cordless mouse.  Other features of the Performance Mouse MX include:

• Sculpted, ergonomic design which makes it extremely comfortable to use even over long periods of time
• Convenient placement of buttons including several that are programmable and a ‘stealth’ thumb button covered by the rubber grip
• Easy to use recharging system that plugs into the USB port or a wall outlet and can be utilized even while the mouse is being used
• Extremely small ‘unifying’ receiver that plugs into a port and then stays there for good.  This will control multiple wireless Logitech devices without the need to add additional receivers
• Hyper-fast scrolling wheel that lets you literally fly through long documents or shift to a slow line-by-line navigation function.  The nearly frictionless wheel also clicks left and right for side scrolling
• Smooth, precise tracking quality cursor movement

The Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX is a full-sized desktop mouse that operates on a 2.4 GHz signal, which is especially beneficial when operating your mouse in large wireless environments such as airports.  The variety of both programmed and customizable buttons is very useful for your own specific preferences.  These buttons are also well placed and spaced on the unit, making them easy to locate but not too easy to press accidentally.

While this mouse may seem a little hefty in price with its suggested manufacturer’s retail price at $99, deals can certainly be found if you’re looking.  As of this minute Amazon is offering a 29% discount and, at under $72 it looks even better!

The Good:

• Tracks on nearly any surface, including glass
• Feels great and is very comfortable
• Tiny receiver is plug-and-forget
• No down time since it can be used while recharging

The Bad:

• Somewhat expensive compared to other mice
• Some people with smaller hands have complained that certain button placement causes a bit too much stretch for them

All things taken into account, with the hyper-scrolling, comfortable grip, superb combination of buttons and excellent tracking, the Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX already has a lot going for it.  Add to that the ability to use it anywhere, including the glass desktop in your hotel room or the granite countertop in your kitchen and it’s a sure winner. Try one out to see how it feels to you!
