4.0 out of 5 stars Nice cordless mouse, January 5, 2006

By 

Gillian Buchanan "Classical Music Editor at B... (London, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Logitech LX5 Cordless Optical Mouse (Personal Computers)

My computer mouse decided to die on me so I went straight out and found this one in one of the local shops. It looked rather more comfortable than most of the other optical mice on the shop's shelves and the blurb on the box gave a longer battery life than others on sale. It was also a relatively inexpensive model compared to some of the others.

Installation was painless, you plug in a connector to your mouse PS2 point and then put the batteries into the mouse before switching the computer on. It does indeed feel comfortable to use and the pointer is swift moving and accurate. The dialogue screens of the software supplied on the disk are beautifully designed and easy to navigate.

The software took a very long time to install - the best part of 10-15 minutes where most disks will take just a few minutes - and I was somewhat concerned at the number of alerts that my firewall produced when installing the musicbox software which accompanies the mouse software, to the point that I uninstalled it again and just left the mouse software on the computer. However the mouse itself works very well and you really don't need the extra music playing software at all since most computers whose owners play music at all regularly will already have several utilities installed.

The mouse's guarantee is for five years so I expect it to last a good while before I need to buy another one!

An excellent, low-cost mouse with good battery life (even better if you turn off the battery, using a switch, when not using the computer). Good, precise feel, user-definable functions and horizontal scrolling available. I don't know why anyone would pay more for a mouse.

This review is from: Logitech LX5 Cordless Optical Mouse (Personal Computers)

I use camera rechargeable batteries and it last at least a couple weeks and I use it several hours every day. Yes the ad claims it last six months but so does all the others. Compare to the new generation Revolution mouse it loses power just about the same amount of time. To save power you can just turn it off when not in use. It doesn't get fancy like extra buttons or smooth scroll but that means less parts to break. The buttons are customizeable but the required software doesn't work all the time.
