Logitech MX 610 Wireless Laser Mouse Review by Arogan


Logitech has come out with a new line of mice. This is a GREAT laser mouse for the price.

- It uses 2xAA batteries (no proprietary batteries yeah!)
- The usb receiver is TINY! (smaller than my logitech notebook wireless mouse.)
- All the usual buttons work fine in Firefox (forward/back). Scroll wheel has the notches. It also has tilt but that requries their drivers but everything else works fine with no drivers installed.
- Battery indicator
- Auto turns on/off with your computer. This works great even without drivers
- There is a manual power switch underneath. Tap to display battery level, hold to turn on/off
- Has volume +/-/mute which work with NO drivers
- Has indicator lights for email/IM (only works with Microsoft crap). Worthless feature IMO.
- Tracks great even on my couch. there's a BIG difference between this mouse and my mx510.
- Very comfortable shape. If you like the shape of the other mx line (500,510,518,700) you will like this mouse.

This is a great laser mouse for $40. [Discuss]
