Review on πŸ–±οΈ Logitech MX Anywhere 2 Wireless Mobile Mouse: Long Range, Hyper Scroll, Easy-Switch - Stone by Etai Gopala

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The scroll wheel is terrible (probably broken, not sure)

I bought this mouse because it was highly rated on many comparison sites but I found the scroll wheel functionality such a shame, that I had to send it back. The scroll wheel has 2 settings - Hyper-Fast with no resistance and a "Gear" mode where you feel slight clicks as you scroll, like you would with most mice. I may have received a defective item, but in Gear mode I felt almost no clicks. It felt very "loose" and tended to scroll back one click after you let go of your finger from normal scrolling. It was very similar to Hyper-Fast mode, where you could spin it quickly with your finger and it would keep spinning after contact. With "Gear" mode enabled, I expected it to stop spinning as soon as I let go of my finger, even if I click on it to try to get it spinning, but it actually kept spinning. This action also makes the scroll wheel extremely responsive. As I said, it's possible that I have a defective mouse and the "Gear" mode has more resistance for others, but I don't know as this is the only one I've tried. I'd probably trade it in for another just to see if mine is broken, but there's another issue I wasn't aware of before buying - pressing the scroll wheel doesn't give you a "left click" like most Mice, this action toggles the scroll mode from Hyper-Fast to Gear Mode instead, which as I mentioned is pretty much the same feel, and there's no way to program it for a left-click. I give 2 stars for all of this. because I liked its size, comfort, pointer response and reloading ability, but the scroll wheel didn't trigger. Instead I bought the Tecknet M002 (2.4GHz Wireless) which I am using at the time of writing this and I really like it, especially for the price. I also bought the Bluetooth version (Tecknet M308) to compare as they are so cheap. I will also write reviews about them on their respective product pages.
