Review on 🖱️ Logitech M510 Wireless Mouse – Comfortable Shape, USB Unifying Receiver, Back/Forward Buttons, Side-to-Side Scrolling, Dark Gray by Mike Bonilla

I have bought several of these mice over the last 5 years and will continue to buy this. It's a good mouse with a long battery life and an on/off button, but it loses points because it breaks after 9 months of daily use. Size: 4 stars The mouse is slightly longer than most, but smaller than many "ergonomic" mice. It fits comfortably in my large hands, which many little mice don't have. My wife has small hands and is comfortable with them. I have several small children and they don't have a problem with it either. The mouse is nicely symmetrical, and while it's nice to look at and fits in small pockets, my hand isn't symmetrical. I have my thumb on one side and my pinky on the other. I would say like most people, but I haven't met most people. This will dangle your ring finger and rest your pinky on the surface you are using the mouse on. If you pulled your little finger into the thumb cavity, it would collapse. You'd think this symmetry makes it comfortable for lefties, and while my right-handed sister says it's the most comfortable right-handed mouse she's ever used, the extra thumb forward and back buttons are on the other side, which makes them awkward to use. a left-handed woman who has to use her ring finger. She assures me she can get used to it, but to do that she needs to get her own damn mouse and stop stealing mine. Connection and laser: 5 stars The mouse connects to a nano receiver that plugs into any USB port. It's NOT Bluetooth (that's good, there are no pairing issues like Bluetooth). The connection is good, the movement is smooth. Other wireless mice suffer from an issue where they go into sleep mode after a few seconds and don't pick up the initial movement when you use the mouse again. Not this one. This mouse tracks every surface I've used it on and moves smoothly. I've used up to 5 of these in the same room at once with no side effects or "crosstalk". I've read that there is a way to connect a mouse to another nano receiver, but I haven't tried that or played around with it, and also heard that posting a legal notice on your Facebook wall violates your copyright and privacy rights protects, so who knows, just don't lose the tiny receiver, there's room for it in the battery compartment. Also, don't keep it in the battery compartment and forget you put it there, and don't tear the house apart to look for it. Finally, the optics are invisible, so neither the red light nor the blinding, deadly laser are fired from below. Durability: 3 stars. I don't get along with mice that easily. Just like my children. I have a work laptop and a personal laptop. Both have their own mouse (different colors, thanks to Logitech). My work is used about 50 hours a week but only on the desk and rarely falls down. My work mouse typically lasts 9 months before the buttons start double-clicking. My personal mouse is used less but still a few hours a week and is used on every surface in the house, sofa, bed, dog, desk, wooden table, pant legs, baby diaper, carpet, wall, glass top. (when the stove is off), a tiled wall, a leg with no pants, the woman's back, a boot sole (ineffective, yes), and on rare occasions, a mouse pad. My personal mouse is dropped, thrown, used as a shield against woman's slaps, drooled on and occasionally kicked. When not in use, it lies in a bag that is regularly thrown away. It usually takes 7-8 months for the buttons to stop clicking (or double clicking) or for the laser to stop reading so many surfaces. I have a mouse in my media center that is used very sparingly, for a few minutes each day to start and stop a show. When my previous mouse was 7 months old and the laser started picking surfaces, we switched it to a light Media Center usage mouse. This mouse remained in this position for more than a year without deteriorating. So I strongly believe it is an overuse/abuse issue. It's worth noting that I've owned and used other mice from Microsoft, HP, and Dell, and none of them lasted as long. Battery life: 5 stars. for some time. The cavity is large enough to accommodate slightly larger battery packs if you use them. My 2 mice turn off when not in use but get heavy use and the included Duracell batteries usually last longer than the mice. My wife's mouse is sitting all the time with moderate to heavy use and its batteries last over 6 months. It has a nice little plastic tab that's built in, when you pull it the batteries slide out, it's a nice added feature for changing batteries so you don't have to stick a butter knife in to get them out and then slip and scrape your jagged Finger tell your wife how you managed to cut yourself with a butter knife and watch as she hides the scissors Strange Light From Above: 3 stars Strange Light From Above. It turns on when you turn on the mouse, confirming that the mouse is actually on. This saves you the nagging worry that the batteries will run out every time you turn it on, only the batteries last forever. The light turns off after a few seconds to avoid wasting battery power. It's nice but not required. Also, I seem to remember him glaring at me angrily after being thrown across the room one day, so that might be the mouse's primary method of communication, and who am I to shut him up. Noise: 5 stars. The mouse whispers softly. I can't usually tell if it's on or not just by the sound. When you press any key or turn the switch on and off, you will hear a slight and pleasant clicking sound. Usually what I use as a mouse surface makes a lot more noise than the mouse itself. Turn off: 5 stars. It works out. There's a small ridge in the middle that provides enough friction to easily toggle the switch on and off, and there's a colored pad under the switch so you can see some red when it's off and green when it's off it is on. This is useful as the words "on" and "off" are engraved and can only be seen if you catch the light correctly.
