This is by far the worst mouse I have ever used. First the packaging is very bad. They should have stated on the package that sheet metal cutters are required to open. Also, their so called tilt wheel with zoom does neither. It can only be rotated for vertical scrolling and will not tilt to the right or left nor be pushed in for lateral scrolls and magnification, respectively. The ergonomics are also not very good. I actually prefer my HP notebook touchpad to the V200. In contrast my old Logitech wired mouse works quite well and is a pleasure to use. I would have rated the V200 zero except the wireless system works quite well.

This is a good mouse of Logitech but the surface of

the black one is glossy, which is difficult to realize from

pictures. Perhaps, I’d have been better off with a gray one

(have seen in a store, looks matte), but prefer black for

more stylish look ))

After one week of using this mouse my wrist began to hurt. Upon investigating what might be the cause I realized that there is no setting to set what position you hold the mouse. If you hold the mouse at a 45 degree angle and move left to right then the cursor moves diagonally instead of left to right. Most basic mice drivers have the ability to adjust this. Second… the mouse is spastic! I have adjusted and adjusted and there is just no decent speed on the mouse. So basically you have two speeds… spastic or slow. Which may also be contributing to my newly self-diagnosed carpal tunnel syndrome.

I did search on Logitech for a different driver for the mouse and was unable to find one, which then lead me here to shop for a new mouse.

This is by far the worse Logitech cordless mouse I have ever used.

Tons of different features like scroll right and left apart from up and down.

Unfortunately, the basic MOUSE function is less than satisfactory. One more proof that more often ends up being less... Rating: 1 / 5

The product sits on my desk unopened. I have not used it. When attempting to penetrate what turned out to be impregnable packaging, the %^#@$Y^! scissor broke!!
So I haven't used the mouse. Question for Logitech: How much did you pay the guy who designed the packaging?
Tomorrow I shall venture forth to purchase a blow torch, or some sort of explosive device so that I can hopefully obtain access to my mouse.

Following up: it's 2 weeks later. I have purchased a new scissor. I am using the mouse. My life is returning to a state of equilibrium. The mouse works fine. Actually, much better than the microsoft mouse which I had previously. (The other mouse seemed to lose signal every once in a while, and ultimately stopped working.) So I am willing to acknowledge that this is a good mouse, as long as you are in a position to hire a contractor with a background in demolition who can assist you in opening the box.

Amazon won't let me change the number of stars, but if I could I would. However, I still think Logitech should reimburse me for a new scissor. Rating: 1 / 5
