Maybe this mouse with a mac-like scroll wheel that doesn't break or get dirty as easily as the mighty mouse and that is Bluetooth compatible would deserve 5 stars. I find it more comfortable and compact than the mighty mice (I have bluetooth and corded versions). I use the nano reciever in my keyboard USB slot, not a main USB slot and it works great without eating up a powered USB.Why 4 stars. Also the engineering put into the mouse is pretty nice.
Okay, so i don't demand a lot from my mouse, but after getting used to apple's mighty mouse (which I really like with the exception of a few things) I haven't had much luck finding something that does what it does as easily or almost as easily in terms of the buttons and the scroll wheel. Who will do it first. Still not perfect. The VX nano has even more buttons and the interface works just right.
P.S. Mac or Logitech. Most importantly the wheel is smooth and the sideways scroll works better than on most mice I have tried. A good and cheaper replacement for the mighty mouse.
This mouse takes 2 AAA batteries and after a month they still have an estimated 160 days left (a nice function of the software that comes with it, it will estimate the battery life remaining). Now that I'm on the subject of batteries.they seem to last a long time. I know some of the older wireless mice were quite heavy due to the batteries.
I absolutely love it. The size and shape is remarkably comfortable in my hand. At the time I am writing this review I have used this mouse for about a month now.
For being a wireless mouse, it is quite light as well. For those concerned, I am running it on Vista with no issues. The extra programmable buttons come in quite handy.
Once you get in the habit of using them you will wonder what you did without them.
Fantastic control, amazing receiver, SUPER LONG LASTING battery usage.Durable, 8 months of field work (just put in my 3rd battery), operates like new.Great job Logitech. I love the programmability. The "5 button" mouse is misleading as the scroll wheel has programmable left and right clicks so it's really a 7 button mouse.
The side-scrolling feature of the wheel is really nice, too. The mouse is a little smaller than average, so it's perfect for my small hands. The range is also very good--it works from over ten feet away. This mouse is great. Highly recommended. The usb receiver is so small, I can leave it in my computer all the time and not have to worry about it getting in the way. I love the fact that I don't have to deal with any cords--no more winding them up every time you put the mouse away. I hardly know it's there.
scrolling is responsive. battery life seems good. the logitech utility is nice to customize the buttons. i really like this mouse. my girlfriend has this one also and we both love them. i like how it comes with a case so you can just toss it in your bag. its the perfect size for traveling. the nano receiver is pretty unobtrusive, so just leave it plugged in to your laptop.
