This is an excellent mouse that gives you capabilities that others don't. One, is that it works on every surface I have tried it on. One of the worst surfaces is glass (which most don't work on) and it worked on it. No other mouse I have tried could do that.Second, the ability to use the same mouse with cut and paste option across computers. If you have both Macs and PCs, this is a big deal. It is great to be able to move data from a Mac to a PC using the same mouse. Be sure to install the software included to be able to have this function.The mouse feels good in my hand and works on all surfaces. Highly recommended!

I have used a lot of mouse pads over the years and for the past 5+ years, I have been using the Razer Exactmat Double Sided Gaming Mouse Pad, which has held up very well, plus it also came with a nice soft wrist pad. However, it was starting to show its age, so when I looked for a replacement, I looked for a similar mouse pad, but instead of a double sided version, I wanted one with a non slip bottom, that would NOT be slipping all over my desk area. After searching and reading reviews I opted for the MM800. I opted for the hard version instead of the soft cloth version, as that is what I'm use to and prefer. Once the item arrived, I recalibrated my Roccat Kone XTD laser mouse to the new mouse pad. Well, it is all I had hoped it would be and then some. The mouse pad is firm with no wiggle or bending at all. The material on the mouse pad appears to be the same type that was used on the Razer Exactmat Double Sided Gaming Mouse Pad. However, the LED light bar that wraps the pad is superb! Since I have the Corsair K95 Platinum in gunmetal, which uses the CUE software, this item uses the same software and can match the keyboards light pattern. So, if you have one Corsair product that uses the CUE software, this is a beautiful fit and match, that will compliment your desktop. If you want to even go one step further, get the Creative Sound BlasterX Kratos S5 speaker system, which also has an LED light bar on the bottom of each of its satellite speakers. Place the K95, Kratos S5 and the MM800 on the same desktop and you have one gorgeous light show, one that will surely impressive anyone who sees it. I am expecting the MM800 to last a very long time and for what you get, the price point is good. I used my Prime membership to receive this item on the same day as I ordered it at NO cost, ZERO! Gotta love it when a great deal gets delivered the same day as you order it. Thanks Amazon for providing this item and great shipping!
The main reason that I wanted to try out the MX Anywhere 2S mouse was for its Darkfield high-precision tracking, which means that the mouse is supposed to work at 4,000 DPI on any surface, even glass. I found that the mouse does indeed track beautifully on any surface—my couch arm, my knee, and even glass. And not just glass with a solid surface directly underneath, but even a pane of glass suspended in the air several feet off the floor. This is the best-tracking mouse I have ever used.One small drawback, which I was aware of before I got the mouse, was that you cannot store the USB receiver inside of it, like you can with a number of Logitech mice, including the M525 that I have been using. Without such storage, you have to either leaver the receiver in your laptop, where it might be damaged when moving the laptop (this happened to me before), or finding some other place to store the receiver and hope that it does not get lost.I had a pleasant surprise on reading the features of the MX Anywhere 25 that reduced some of my concern about losing or damaging the receiver. It turns out that you have a choice of connecting either with the USB receiver or through Bluetooth. It is nice to have that choice. I found that the mouse worked well either way, and that it was easy to pair the mouse with the Logitech Options software (which must be downloaded from Logitech).I had not used the Logitech Options software before, and found that it was a great way to choose the options for the left/right click, two buttons on the left side of the mouse, the scroll wheel (which also clicks left and right), and a square button on top called the gesture button. The options are basically the same as Logitech software from 20 years ago, but the graphic user interface is much easier to use than navigating through text-based menus. I had not used a gesture button before. The way it works is that you hold it down while moving the mouse forward, backward, left, or right. The default gestures are things like bringing up the Windows menu or task manager or going to the desktop, and the gesture button did work for issuing the commands. I don’t know if I would ever use it, though, as pointing and clicking on the Windows menu, for example, seems just as easy to me. I wish I could assign the key to the gesture button—that could really be useful for things like opening a link in a new tab or window. Alas, that assignment is not possible.A feature I found somewhat odd is that the mouse uses a rechargeable battery. The documentation says that plugging in the mouse to your computer with the provided USB cable for 4 minutes will charge the mouse for one day, and a full charge will last for 70 days. I don’t see the advantage—the two AA batteries in my M525 are supposed to be sufficient for three years’ use. Seems a little gimmicky to me.The feature I was most curious to try was the ability to use the mouse simultaneously with two computers, enabling one to copy text or files from one computer and pasting them to the other. This would be the coolest mouse feature ever, if I could get it to work. But here is what happened. First, it seemed that I would have to use Bluetooth connections for both computers, since you can use either the USB receiver or Bluetooth, and there is only one receiver. From the Logitech Options software (which must be run on bother computers for the dual-control to work) documentation, it looked like the mouse should function just like it does on a dual monitor set-up. That is, moving off the edge of one screen will make the cursor appear on the next screen. The trouble was, as soon as I moved off one screen, the mouse would not work on the other computer until I changed Bluetooth channels by pushing a button on the bottom of the mouse. This made moving back and forth extremely awkward and time-consuming. I got this feature to work, but it seems too cludgy to be useful. Maybe there’s a better way to do this, but if there is the documentation does not explain it well.So, aside from the disappointment of not getting the coolest feature to wor

It's pretty cool to have a mouse that does both bluetooth and usb dongle. This is now my travel mouse. I don't pull it out for quick computer use or for playing around with the laptop. When if I really need to get work done at a hotel or on the go, I like a mouse compared to a trackpad for work. This ones's really cool in that it connects with the usb dongle to my computer and it can connect to my wife's computer with bluetooth. We can both have the advantages of a mouse with her still using her very thin travel case.It's also a good sucessor to the original MX anywhere mouse. The old MX mouse had a little more weight. I think some confuse weight with quality. This still has a little bit of weight (it doesn't feel hollow), but it's lighter. The plastic still seems like quality plastic and I think it will last like all of my logitech mice have!It's got all these special features like copy and paste between two computers and such, but I don't like to install the extra software needed for these functions. I just want an awesome mouse that works on any surface!This is about the perfect mouse for me. It works on any hotel desk/table without a mouse pad and it just works. I'm happy with it and I do suggest it.

I like this mouse, but found that the scroll when got jumpy after I'd used it about a week. I think perhaps it was caused by someone, maybe me, fiddling around with the settings in the software. The software, Logitech Options software, which has to be downloaded and installed, has an option on it to control the sensitivity of the mouse and after I turned that down, it was fine again for a while, but then it got too fast on me again. There's an option in the software for the Speed adaptive scroll and I realized that mine was in 'freespin' mode which is super fast for long documents. I put it in Rachet mode and that gave me the precision that I wanted. It also has a handy restore to defaults setting which I found very handy in letting me experiment with the settings. That software is available and free with different versions of Windows and Mac. I am using Windows 10 on all of my PCs.I like the comfort of this mouse, and it is is more the size that I am used to, compared to their larger model. I do like the side scroll on the larger model though, but it's also more expensive. This one has 7 programmable buttons. You can assign the buttons different operations for different applications. The software makes this very easy to use and is very intuitive.The Flow Control is great. In my setup, I have my main computer using the USB device that came with the mouse for mouse control. Then I have 2 laptops that use Bluetooth to connect to the mouse. All 3 computers run Windows 10 and are on the same network. I am able to easily switch between the different machines as well as transfer file between them. That capability is setup in the software as well.I find it to be a very smooth mouse that tracks on anything. I often pick my mouse up and use it on my leg, and it goes over my desk's two colors, black and light maple without skipping a beat.If you have any problems with this mouse, check the software settings or ask Logitech. They are very good to help, usually replying to me within a day, and also have a lot of troubleshooting information online.About the charge- this mouse goes and goes. One charge and I've been going well over a week and a lot of that time has admitted been in a game that requires a TON of clicking. I was worried that the mouse might run down on me in the middle of a game, but there's an option in the controls to send a notice as it gets low so you can recharge it. It is SO MUCH better than my old wireless which would have had to have fresh batteries by now. I don't turn my mouse off, but there is a button on the bottom for that. I am just very bad to forget about it. I love not having to change out batteries though.

I am a VERY LONG TERM Anywhere MX mouse lover. I probably have 10 of them. I give them away as gifts. My most preferred one is the original MX Anywhere because it weighs 20 grams more than the MX2 and this model. That extra weight makes it feel Apple Quality in the hand, and I prefer it for movement/precision.That aside, this mouse is as good of quality as the past MX Anywhere mice. It looks a little nicer with the new logo, and setup is essentially the same as the MX 2.What's new here as far as I could tell is the introduction of the FLOW software. Being a long term Logitech and Anywhere MX user, I already had the basic software on all of my computers, and I've always gone light with the UNIFYING software. This is the basic to just manage the pairing between the USB part and the mouse.Here is where my life got a little choppy: I didn't know where to go next.As you might expect the device doesn't come with a USB drive or DVD or CD anymore, which would normally lead you through what you need to do next. I googled Logitech FLOW, and downloaded the application to two three of my PC's-- one of which I was using an older MX Anywhere and hadn't paired the newest 2S with.As you might expect, the third PC not yet paired with this mouse told me I couldn't set up FLOW because I didn't have a compatible mouse.The second PC installed fine, and setup failed because it was searching for another computer to find & pair with.After I installed the software to a third computer, it also couldn't find another computer.I had to disable Symantec Endpoint Protection on both PC's so they could find each other.That all aside, I went to the Logitech website looking for some kind of flowchart, Wizard or Video to give me the base level knowledge I needed to understand, to set things up in the right order. I couldn't find that.If they could build some kind of animation video into the installer, it would help.And about the install: When you go to the Logitech downloads page there are so many downloads available, without a really clear understanding of which is for what. For example, if you go to this mouse, the only download you see is Logitech Options. Is this also Unifying? Or do I also need Unifying?Setpoint, Flow Scroll for my original MX Anywhere....So I'll just finish with this: I do think this is the best mouse you can buy, overall, short of the more weighty original Anywhere MX. That being said, the software and setup process for someone who had some past concept of what the Logitech install situation was wasn't guided enough to let me know what I needed to do to easily, properly take advantage of the new FLOW capability. One mouse showed up as blue, the other white, I don't even know what it means, etc.
I've used a mobile mouse off and on for years. It's a very simple Bluetooth mouse that connects using a USB dongle. I love it for its poratbility and ease of use, but I've never liked the fact that I have to change batteries. The Anywhere mouse solves that problem for me as this mouse is 100% rechargeable! I have to admit even though there is a lot to love about this little peripheral, the rechargeable battery is my favorite feature. The Anywhere mouse is easily programmable either through straight Bluetooth or by using the provided USB dongle. The dongle is quite impressive, too, as it sits completely flush with the side of your computer. It has programmable side buttons, but honestly the regular daily use is how I primarily use this mouse. I love that the wheel can be either click style or smooth for scrolling and the left and right buttons have a great feel to them. I've had nothing but good experience with the Anywhere mouse. It's responsive and convinent.
