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.
When you have 3 desk tops and a couple of laptops, having one wireless mouse that works for any or all of them, is a great advantage. This is easy to setup and great to use. Highly recommended for those who have several computers.

Great for video processing. You can free some of the workload on this processor by installing one of these GPU video cards: - EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB FTW GAMING ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card 06G-P4-4996-KR
This is a nice quality mouse that works very well. Even the children find this one easy to use, since it works on most surfaces. Wireless is also ideal for use by children.

It looks great under my corsair mouse. A little larger than I thought it would be but that okay. More lighting. The pass through usb is a great idea since my corsair keyboard uses two usb ports but has its on pass through for the pad which has it's own pass through for the mouse. Great idea Corsair. Keep it up. I recommend for looks and function.
I love this mouse pad. At first I was torn between getting another extended cloth mouse pad or going with the RGB hard surface one. I am glad I made the choice to go RGB because man is this pad beautiful! You can use the helpful and user-friendly Corsair software to sync your lighting scheme if you have a Corsair RGB keyboard and/or mouse. Your friends will be impressed as heck (until they see you play - then you're on your own).
The pad is a pretty good size and the surface texture is nice and slippery. It's a noticeable difference from cloth though and may take some getting used to. As well, the RGB LEDs are super bright and functional. It's going to make your computer room look like some kind of disco.
That said, there are a couple little things that I am not a fan of. Number one is the very protruding USB port/input at the top of the mousepad. If you use a wired mouse, your mouse cable might get held up by this part of the pad, and it just looks clunky. Also, this mouse pad even on sale is very expensive. You're paying twice as much essentially for the LEDs so you have to REALLY want those bright lights and flashy colors. Finally, there are reports that the surface texture of the pad wears down mice feet faster than cloth pads. So be warned. Overall though I am very glad for the purchase.
I use this mousepad paired with a Corsair M65 RGB mouse and Corsair K70 RGB keyboard with the CUE software.
(+): Very nicely sized mouse pad; use for gaming and everyday use, high quality, smooth and accurate tracking, LEDs are bright and consistent (no hotspots), stays in place and doesn't slide, even with heavy and harsh movements!
(-): Using Corsair's CUE software for the MM800 RGB is the biggest downfall. It consistently will have errors with connectivity, especially with USB 3.x ports, as you can find on numerous computer forums and Corsair's support page. If you are able to plug in to a USB 2.0 port, you'll be fine.
Overall, the errors will only effect your lighting profiles, but the reason you bought this mouse pad was for the RGB lighting...so I'll deduct a star for that. Hoping for a firmware update fix, as they did with their previous RGB products.
Best bluetooth mouse available for the new MacBooks that only support USB-C. Also, installing the Logitech Manager software fixes the issue of decoupling the natural scrolling direction of the trackpad from the wheel scroll direction of the mouse.
