Nice price, good quality.

In general, everything was always very good with Logitech mice, except for one thing - for some reason, from time to time they all slowed down on my Lenovo laptop. First, I tried switching it to a different model, which was this one, but it did not help. The table cover or DPI came under scrutiny after the mouse pad was found to be ineffective in resolving the issue. In the end, I found the answer on a discussion board located in another country. It turns out that the USB output can provide a hint to the renowned Unifying receiver, which is a result of the miniaturization process. Everything started functioning like a well-oiled machine as soon as it was connected through a USB extension connection, despite the fact that the setup is not quite as aesthetically beautiful. However, it's possible that this approach will be helpful to someone.

Pros

+ The mouse is positioned PERFECTLY in the palm of the hand. This particular model turned out to be the best for gripping for me - not small, not large, but exactly what I needed. + Decent materials, looks very harmonious next to the MX Keys keyboard. + The functionality of additional buttons and wheel tilt can be used very conveniently in Windows. + Quiet buttons are cool. +The wheel initially seems too fast, which is rare (and there is also no obvious fixation of scrolling), but you quickly grow used to it, and then the wheels of other mouse seem to be too slow. Additional keys, as many people write here, are extremely louder, but this does not bother me very much. +The wheel initially seems too fast, which is unusual (and there is also no clear fixation of scrolling).

Cons

The proprietary software that comes with Logitech Options is quite unstable. When Windows starts, extra keys frequently stop working, and you have to manually start Options in order to get them to work again. And for Linux, there are no drivers at all, so you can forget about the functionality of additional keys out of the box on Ubuntu; the only way to get them to work is by dancing with a tambourine, but even then I couldn't really get it to work properly. Despite this, the primary buttons perform as expected.
