Review on Logitech M590 Multi-Device Silent Mouse by Haruto Asahi ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

A very good mouse. I recommend to buy, taking into account that the problem described above is most likely a feature of my copy, and others will not appear. I specially looked at the pictures of the buttons of this mouse - everywhere the buttons are perfectly aligned. And here I am, with a slight difference in height. If anything, the mouse is new, it was taken out of the sealed package. Logitech support seems to be responding here - explain, is this a warranty case or not? Also, I saw a comment here that the mouse has a "terrible wheel". Either a person got married, or he did not understand how to use it correctly. The wheel is excellent. Compared to other mice, at first there is a feeling that the wheel fixes scrolling steps worse and walks much more freely. But that's because you habitually put in a lot of effort to scroll through it. This wheel has very short steps, due to which there are many more steps with one movement of the finger. To achieve the same effect as on a mouse with a regular wheel, you need to move it slower and weaker, that's all. Thanks to this, you can scroll documents faster (and more accurately) with stronger and more sweeping movements. After a few days of getting used to, the wheel of a regular mouse now feels too slow and inaccurate.

Pros
  • The mouse is great overall. - Quiet main buttons - Pleasant tactile sensations from clicks of all buttons, pleasant to the touch materials - VERY comfortable wheel with increased stepping (compared to other, cheaper mice that I have had). Allows you to scroll quickly, without losing accuracy. - 1000 DPI is kind of small by today's standards, but you don't need more unless you're a pro gamer or graphic designer. At the same time, a relatively small DPI helps to save battery power and makes the mouse "long-lived" (I can't check how long it holds a charge in practice, because I use the mouse for several days). - Work with two devices, of course, because. this is its main feature. The ability to switch between connected devices by clicking on special. button. - Rapid awakening. The mouse has an on / off switch, but even if it is not turned off, it falls asleep after a while, and is brought out of sleep by a simple movement. The mouse of another brand, which I used before, required a click to wake up, and this click counted, which is not very convenient (it could turn on a paused video, for example, etc.). There is no such thing here. - General premium. The feeling that the thing fully justifies the price. Despite all this boasting, there is a significant flaw in my copy, which is discussed below.
Cons
  • 1. Not all buttons are quiet. At what, according to the noise level, they can be divided into three types: - Quiet: LMB, RMB. Clicks are audible, but they are quite muffled, low. You can use it in the same room with a sleeping person, you definitely won’t interfere. - Medium: click on the wheel, scroll the wheel, side buttons. These clicks are also muffled, but two times louder than the main buttons. Still no annoying clicking sound. Do not wake up a sleeping person, but a waking person will definitely hear them. - Loud: press the wheel right and left. This is some kind of joke) The sounds are as loud and "clicky" as possible. At what in one direction (to the left) is even louder than in the other. I have some old non-silent mouse from Logitech, and so the same clicks are almost silent on it) And on this silent one, they are heard throughout the apartment. As if the engineers specifically tried to make them as loud as possible. Despite this uneven noise cancellation, I do not consider this a significant disadvantage. The main buttons are really quiet, and I rarely use those that are loud and do not see this as a problem. 2. There is a much more serious drawback in this mouse, which constantly annoys and distracts me during use: a VERY short stroke of the left mouse button. Most likely, this is some kind of marriage of my copy. The bottom line is that this mouse already has a much shorter travel of the main buttons than the usual ones - apparently, a feature of the quiet mechanism. After switching from a regular mouse, I got used to pressing the buttons with less effort for a while. It's not a problem. The problem is that the two main buttons have a different stroke. LMB is initially pressed in a little more than RMB, even without pressing. This can be seen in the photo. When you press the RMB, the tactile sensation is very pleasant, and when you press the LMB, there is almost no feeling of pressing, the button just immediately clicks without pushing inward. It seems to be a trifle, but it creates a constant unpleasant sensation during the entire time of use. Maybe I'm being sensitive, of course.

With its pros. All but the following is a good wireless quiet mouse for a laptop. Has cons: The wheel scrolls very inaccurately, I had to reduce the scrolling speed, since it is easy to quickly rotate it. Very strange a la "soft-touch" coating.
