The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

While I am satisfied with the purchase, I was expecting more problems with this mouse, judging by the reviews about the amount of marriage. Time will tell how she behaves. Has pros: In general, a very pleasant mouse on the first impression (if anything changes over time, I will add a review). The buttons are not loud at all (quite at the level of other normal modern mice), the scroll does not slip, under Linux (Kubuntu 22.04 beta) it does not lag on BT. The button for switching wheel modes under Linux is visible programmatically and gestures can be hung on it (unlike the M720). A clear stepped line-by-line scroll (on the M720 I really lacked this clarity). The ribbed thumb surface feels very nice (better than the smooth one on the M720, although it does look like a 8-bit gradient). Type-C charging (no need to buy batteries or look for a MicroUSB wire in the bins). The horizontal wheel can be programmed for 3 different no-scroll events (no-touch zoom, touch, touch and hold). True, I have not yet figured out what gestures or actions to hang on them, but this is a matter of fantasy. The vertical wheel is wide, very metallic and pleasant to the touch, not like rubberized wheels on other mice. SmartShift switching works very nicely (especially after tuning the threshold - I set it up so that with a fast but manual scroll, the wheel remains in line-by-line mode, and with a sharp push it instantly switches to inertial mode). Well, a cool light blow allows you to hear and feel tactile when exactly the mouse stopped scrolling. Has cons: Too heavy for me (maybe I'm just not used to it completely), after it the M720 seems like a small fluff. Under Linux, the logiops (logid) driver does not catch the scroll wheel when performing gestures (on the M720 it catches with the same rules). Perhaps of course this is a software bug and it will be possible to cure it. I tried to ate the mouse firmware, but all the software says that 019.001.00015 is current as of December 27, 2022 and there are no ates. The wheel (or rather the shaft) of horizontal scrolling really spins with absolutely no clicks, which limits its use (for example, in gestures or games, it can no longer be attached to any discrete actions, only smooth ones like camera zoom or brush size). From the little things - the button for switching receivers is located on the bottom of the mouse, which limits the speed of switching (but as for me, this is not a big problem).
