Not too shabby, but not the best 09/24/2007
This review is from: Logitech LX5 Gray/Silver 3 Buttons Tilt Wheel RF Wireless Optical Mouse
Pros:
great price for an accurate wireless mouse.
great battery life. Average batteries last at least 6 months.
nice feel in the hand, not too small, not too large.
good weight=accurate tracking
very comfy while still looking nice.
Invisible optical sensor means no more bright red mouse glow at night.
It's classy and understated.
Cons:
After owning it several months, I've noticed a problem. Clicks on the left button are sketchy at best after moderate use for nearly a year. Now, you have to press rather hard to get it to recognize your finger, and if you don't press hard enough, it acts as if you stopped holding down the mouse button after a random amount of time. i.e. click and drag becomes click and drag halfway then select somewhere else because the mouse thinks you let go and picked up elsewhere.
Overall Review:
I picked mine up at my R.Shack store when it was on sale, but I'm sure it's the same hardware anywhere you get it. The battery life isn't an exaggeration, my first set of batteries lasted about 7 months, and I haven't replaced them since.
Also, if you like repainting your gear, it's super easy to disassemble. I painted the grey parts with a brushed metal finish to match my case, and it looks very classy.
I only wish its function matched its looks.
