"honestly the worst mouse i've ever used"

"at first i thought this is just me rough housing with the mouse then i read other reviews and shockingly see others have had the same issue"

"i was initially a bit dubious that this mouse would be big enough as reviews have mentioned it being on the smaller side but having used it for a while those worries turned out to be unfounded as this mouse performs well and is very comfortable resulting in it being a great bargain when compared with some of the much more expensive mice on the market"

"logitech even a cheap mouse is fantastic"

"the mouse also feels cheap however that's probably more a weight thing as it is really light and i don't mind buying this multiple times when it wears down because unlike many other high performance mouse this doesn't cost £50+"

"it's very expensive and i don't think it is worth the hugely inflated price for a wired mouse however it does fit my hand perfectly and feels comfortable to use"

"there's nothing positive to be said about it except the sensor which doesn't compensate all the other flaws tl dr this house is built cheap and feels cheap the shape is very uncomfortable the buttons have no responsiveness you're much better off trying to get a deathadder on promotion any zowie mouse on second hand or the steelseries rival dont waste your money on this mouse"

"good mouse but cheap plastic"

"however i have not had this issue on a laptop so i guess this was an issue with the desktop"

"horrible experience"

"its way too light and jumps skips a lot witch is extremely annoying when playing competitive games i don't want to be too harsh and bash it too mush as the price is really cheap but i cant reccommend it for gaming what it's marketed for "

"it feels horrible to use and the performance feels closer to a noname chinese laser mouse than anything that could be labled "gaming" if you want this to play fps games look elsewhere"

"really disappointing"

"it's not trying to look like the product of a onetime illicit drunken liaison involving 3cpo and optimus prime's jockstrap unlike a lot of products these days that seem to target a certain demographic that tries too hard to come across as "cool" and "edgy""

"i don't know what the difference between the g203 and g pro is but i assume it's very insignificant as they said for the g pro they slightly improved the sensors"

"i have nothing now for 11 days because of this awful product!"

"this mouse is absolutely horrible the sensor is good sure but it's built like a 10 euro hp mouse there's no comfort to be found and consequently your accuracy will drop because the grip is horrible so that sensor really doesn't make up for it maybe if your hands are the size of a 10 year old kid you will like this mouse but if your hand is average or above average don't buy it you will instantly regret it i used it for a month and the discomfort even sligthly injuried one of my fingers"

"there's nothing positive to be said about it except the sensor which doesn't compensate all the other flaws tl dr this house is built cheap and feels cheap the shape is very uncomfortable the buttons have no responsiveness you're much better off trying to get a deathadder on promotion any zowie mouse on second hand or the steelseries rival dont waste your money on this mouse"

"if you do buy this mouse i suggest you also buy a £3 crap mouse so you don't get caught short"

"standing face to face with a hostile and being unable to frag them or at least return fire because my 'trigger' is jammed is super unhelpful and completely unacceptable for fps gaming"

"the buttons are also quite noisy"

"one huge gripe i have despite the weight is the clicks are incredibly light which is fantastic for rapid and tap firing but annoying as you will sometimes misclick just by readjusting your grip and resting your fingers on the buttons"

"right click button doesnt work quite precisely and it is so annoying as that is the most frequently used button"

"noisy clicks didn't expect for a gaming mouse"

"annoyingly loud"

"what wrong with flat buttons and sensible comfort curves at the back for the pinky?"

"only very minor issue is that the cable could be braided for extra durability"

"i'm an it support professional and over the past year i've seen a lot of issues with systems slowing down juddering crashing with wireless mice keyboards"

"the mouse also feels cheap however that's probably more a weight thing as it is really light and i don't mind buying this multiple times when it wears down because unlike many other high performance mouse this doesn't cost £50+"

"nice mouse that does what i want which is having 2 extra buttons on the side while not looking like a ridiculous transformer"

"i have never used a mouse so responsive and the only issue i have with it is the shape which is low profile and even for my small medium hands it is a small mouse and does not fit well with palm or fingertip grips however if you claw you will be pulling flick shots you've never done before just because this sensor can handle it"

"nice mouse that does what i want which is having 2 extra buttons on the side while not looking like a ridiculous transformer"

"its just a hardware issue with this model"

"i've used many different mice and this one's by far the most functional"

"the only small flaw with it is the right mouse button seems to be a bit too sensative and it's fairly easy to click it while not meaning to"

"i did have a strange issue on my desktop pc where every now and again it would stop working and i would need to reinsert it into the usb port"

"my only real complaint is that the left and right clicks are quite shallow compared to my previous mouse and so i keep accidentally clicking the right mouse button"

"to rate this product 1 star would be unfair because when it was working it was okay and the clicking issue may be a manufacturing defect which occasionally happens with hardware"

"however when i received the product the packaging was broken the mouse had no cover on the inside and the security seals were broken and torn"

"wish i'd gone down this route the first time i would have saved a great deal of frustration time and effort"

"the only problem i have is that the buttons are quite sensitive so if i relax too much or not attentive i will accidentally click the right mouse button even if i don't want to"

"before i could get around to looking into it i found games weren’t playing properly"

"another niggle would be the lights on by default not my thing at all but after turning everything off in the software the lights went away completely"

"it's not trying to look like the product of a onetime illicit drunken liaison involving 3cpo and optimus prime's jockstrap unlike a lot of products these days that seem to target a certain demographic that tries too hard to come across as "cool" and "edgy""

"also has one of the softest middle mouse clicks on any mouse might annoy some "

"it is basically the same as the g pro with a slightly worse sensor but it is still a great sensor the best i've used"

"the only solution is to either buy new switches and install them yourself or buy a new mouse that doesn't use such cheap parts"

"my hand aches after a few minutes of using it and it's just not ergonomically designed"

"i use this on linux and really appreciate the middle button for switching between dpis did not even realize this until i bought it since the configuration utility is windows only"

"came to the point where holding the button was just like constantly clicking the button at inhuman speeds"

"i'd like to think that this issue was just for my case as the mouse itself seemed pretty good comfortable design and seemed sturdy enough but the right mouse button issue just made it unusable"

"like many others the mouse buttons developed a double click problem after about 6 months and it's getting worse"

"i feel the side buttons of the mouse are placed slightly wrong as well due to the fact they are quite easy to press as well"

"material is nice rough plastic that's good to grip and feels like it will last a long time unlike the rubber sides in my rival that wore down fully after a year"

"ergonomically the only thing i dislike is the side buttons which i rarely misstrigger this is only a problem in programs that have hardcoded bindings like webbrowsers"

"uninstalled the software"

"unfortunately not long after the same started happening to the right button at first just a random double click but within a week that became the same problem as with extra side buttons"

"really haven't had any problems with this mouse except for some people that may not like it because they are either used to large mouses or it simply doesn't fit their hands"

"i mean apart from a fancy look and a led half ring thing is not much of a gaming mouse"

"countless times when playing pubg i just go ahead and give away my position with useless unintended firing"

"it keeps randomly losing contact with the computer"

"only issue i have is that the dpi button has now stopped functioning after only 6+ months & i barely used it "

"it doesn’t have the jittery cursor like the last few mouses"

"what wrong with flat buttons and sensible comfort curves at the back for the pinky?"

"the technology for the mouse that you use to change its colour lighting areas and its dpi is average but only average it lets you reprogram the buttons and change the dpi levels and have up to 5 different dpi levels to switch between however i was quite troubled by this application as it's window seems to go past the bottom of the screen cutting some buttons off from me and there's no way to resize this window as far as i know"

"the middle button roller has a very rough texture and hurts the finger when you use it"

"they can be turned down using the logitech app thing but for me the settings keep resetting to default probably because i haven't had a chance to restart my pc since installing the app"

"i realise that ram and disk space are cheap these days but this just smacks of lazy programming"

"there are plenty of gaming mice out there but they either go over the top with crazy designs or too many buttons or they’re uncomfortable"

"sad because without this very basic error in design it would get a high score"

"but i did find the right button to be overly sensitive"

"good mouse pretty cheap too for a logitech would definitely recommend for gaming or for everyday general use"

"i've owned a mouse that's more expensive and was nowhere near as good"

"worked great at first but i noticed it started having driver issues and my computer now recognizes the mouse as a keyboard for some reason"

"did not live up to the standard i had trouble with it double clicking by itself now and then it clicks extra by itself i thought it was new or there was fluff"

"i like the ability to customise the colours but if you’re looking for a good value gaming mouse maybe look at something else because this mouse just is too small and doesn’t do the job as efficiently as other gaming mouses do"

"don't even waste your money on expensive mice"

"personally i will never buy another logitech mouse after this until they change the use of these cheap switches and i recommend others avoid them until this issue is resolved"

"it has rubber pads on the bottom which glide nicely along my steelseries qck heavy without any resistance"

"the two issues i have with the mouse is the cable isn't braided and the mouse buttons are very sensitive which isn't really bad"

"eventhough i dislike gaming mice this feels somewhere between a normal and a gaming mouse which is perfect for the type of usage i had in mind"

"waste of money and i can't receive a new one for 11 days i am at risk for covid so i can't leave my house unless essential and my work requires a mouse"

"its a cool looking mouse that is lightweight and cheap but it doesnt feel nice in your hand for longer sessions of use"

"i had no idea what was causing this at the time to i had to resort to reformatting windows"

"i tired both side by side and i cannot tell the difference"

"the mouse is alright has some obvious drawbacks however such as the mouse right and left click buttons they are very sensitive which i don't think is very appropriate for gaming as most people who are playing a game would not want to end up misclicking and doing something bad in a game just because they put too much weight into their fingers while moving their mouse on accident which has happened to myself "

"most companies that develop mice seem to see these buttons as just throwaway buttons shoved on in a slapdash way but logitech smashed it here"

"i set in game mouse sensitivity high to take advantage of highest dpi setting which will make the raw input mouse speed slow but accurate however x11 for the desktop sucks at scaling mouse speed _up_ integer multiply only so changing to one of the lower dpis with the physical button is useful for switching back to a desirable desktop speed"

"its way too light and jumps skips a lot witch is extremely annoying when playing competitive games i don't want to be too harsh and bash it too mush as the price is really cheap but i cant reccommend it for gaming what it's marketed for "

"the cheaper brands did the job well but failed around 6 months in"

"another niggle would be the lights on by default not my thing at all but after turning everything off in the software the lights went away completely"

"i had no idea what was causing this at the time to i had to resort to reformatting windows"

"the height is also very slow and this is not suitable for people with tall fingers"

"been through 20+ mouses but this has beaten all of them"

"it has a bit of a tacky plastic feeling but at a cheap price i can’t really complain all that much"

"also this is a mouse with 2 additional buttons 3 if you count dpi switch this is not a fancy mouse and i use it within fps games only for pointing+clicking"

"everything broke again"

"there's nothing positive to be said about it except the sensor which doesn't compensate all the other flaws tl dr this house is built cheap and feels cheap the shape is very uncomfortable the buttons have no responsiveness you're much better off trying to get a deathadder on promotion any zowie mouse on second hand or the steelseries rival dont waste your money on this mouse"

"the only solution is to either buy new switches and install them yourself or buy a new mouse that doesn't use such cheap parts"

"this is half the price of most razer mice and yet is way better in every way"

"this is it i used razer deathadder for years but find this more comfortable"

"it has a bit of a tacky plastic feeling but at a cheap price i can’t really complain all that much"

"standing face to face with a hostile and being unable to frag them or at least return fire because my 'trigger' is jammed is super unhelpful and completely unacceptable for fps gaming"

"only con is that the cable is not braided but hey for this price its a great mouse"

"i moved away from logitech to try out the cheaper more functional mice and thought they were okay"

"it's completely un useable"

"the only differences are that the g pro includes a larger sensor not necessarily a better one more on that later and its cable is braided while the g203 has a rubber cable"

"the only downside is the resistance on the right click button which i find i depress by mistake often"

"most companies that develop mice seem to see these buttons as just throwaway buttons shoved on in a slapdash way but logitech smashed it here"

"the first one had a faulty button but amazon quickly replaced it and the replacement has been functioning perfectly"

"material is nice rough plastic that's good to grip and feels like it will last a long time unlike the rubber sides in my rival that wore down fully after a year"

"i can only wonder how long this mouse would last for heavy gaming use!"

"because of this thought oh well those switches for these buttons must have been cheap and just stopped using them"

"it has the basic functionality of all other mouse in the market and also a forward and backward button when browsing the web"

"the only thing i dislike about it is the right hand side of the mouse is shaped in a way that makes it less comfortable than if it were to be gently curved"

"personally i will never buy another logitech mouse after this until they change the use of these cheap switches and i recommend others avoid them until this issue is resolved"

"each button clicks well and doesn't stick"

"i use the mouse for playing csgo and during every 10 minute dm the mouse would fail 2 3 times"

"the mouse also feels cheap however that's probably more a weight thing as it is really light and i don't mind buying this multiple times when it wears down because unlike many other high performance mouse this doesn't cost £50+"

"however after about 15 months the left mouse button has stopped working properly often double clicking when only pressed once failing to 'hold' an object while dragging dropping failing to select text by not holding the selection or not clicking at the point you want to make the selection"

"there's nothing positive to be said about it except the sensor which doesn't compensate all the other flaws tl dr this house is built cheap and feels cheap the shape is very uncomfortable the buttons have no responsiveness you're much better off trying to get a deathadder on promotion any zowie mouse on second hand or the steelseries rival dont waste your money on this mouse"

"for some reason the right and left mouse buttons are also extremely loud something i've not noticed before in addition to being extremely easy to click by accident"

"mouse lag in everything and maxed out cpu usage"

"many times i've died in for honor because something so basic as left and right clicking doesn't work properly"

"i realise that ram and disk space are cheap these days but this just smacks of lazy programming"

"i certainly would not buy it again nor could i reasonably recommend it to a friend"

"this is such a nice mouse i'd call it mid size not quite as large as my razer death adder that it replaces but definitely large and ergonomic enough so as to not cause any issues after using it for extended periods"

"but then suddenly by january 2020 close to its one year period it started again and then after a few dyas it would be perfect fine until three months ago it was impossible to use it so i had tobuy a new one because i had passed the one year of warranty"

"it keeps causing problems with my keyboard by disconnecting it from time to time which is not ideal"

"it is most suited to fingertip and loose claw grip"

"to me it's something that becomes invisible that's what it feels like to me the only relevant games i play is oldskool fps and derivatives for linux in particular openarena insta with rail jump is where this mouse leveled me up think twitch reflex on steroids "

"this is such a nice mouse i'd call it mid size not quite as large as my razer death adder that it replaces but definitely large and ergonomic enough so as to not cause any issues after using it for extended periods"

"if other people are in the room the clicking can get annoying for them"

"6 mojave it doesn’t"

"pros: cheap accurate sensor soft middle button cons: software has some bugs lightweight not really a con but if you come from heavy mouse there is some adjusting time "

"however if you are interested in this mouse for general computing then i wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!"

"at first i thought this is just me rough housing with the mouse then i read other reviews and shockingly see others have had the same issue"

"anyway i've used ths mouse for a few months now playing loads of fps mainly overwatch and league of legends heck even a rhythm game named osu!"

"items except the gaming mouse are christmas presents therefore i am unable to comment"

"when using the left mouse button for example it gives a double click intermittently which is very annoying"

"when you find a mouse you like it is often sensible to buy spares for when companies inevitably ruin a design in subsequent releases and i can definitely see myself considering doing that with this one"

"if you prefer a weightier mouse dont get this one"

"this mouse has changed how i game on my pc i am now ditiching the controller on games i previously would use one on such as battlefield 1 adn i have noticed a new level of accuracy than my previous mouse on rainbow six siege"

"most companies that develop mice seem to see these buttons as just throwaway buttons shoved on in a slapdash way but logitech smashed it here"

"i looked this up and it appears other people with logitech mouses even wireless ones have this problem"

"waste of money and i can't receive a new one for 11 days i am at risk for covid so i can't leave my house unless essential and my work requires a mouse"

"the mouse is alright has some obvious drawbacks however such as the mouse right and left click buttons they are very sensitive which i don't think is very appropriate for gaming as most people who are playing a game would not want to end up misclicking and doing something bad in a game just because they put too much weight into their fingers while moving their mouse on accident which has happened to myself "

"i'm essentially being batted between logitech on amazon and the logitech website with absolutely no success i want a replacement or a refund asap!"

"my 13 year old uses it for fortnite and rainbow 6 siege as well as other pc stuff and he says best mouse he's had"

"this mouse has changed how i game on my pc i am now ditiching the controller on games i previously would use one on such as battlefield 1 adn i have noticed a new level of accuracy than my previous mouse on rainbow six siege"

"to rate this product 1 star would be unfair because when it was working it was okay and the clicking issue may be a manufacturing defect which occasionally happens with hardware"

"i do play with a very low sensitivity in fps though"

"did some research and it seems to be a common complaint"

"really haven't had any problems with this mouse except for some people that may not like it because they are either used to large mouses or it simply doesn't fit their hands"

"i'd like to think that this issue was just for my case as the mouse itself seemed pretty good comfortable design and seemed sturdy enough but the right mouse button issue just made it unusable"

"ive had a lot of mice all of which ive found issues with even had the logitech g pro wireless had to send a copy back due too button rubbing and the replacement double clicked every time so gave up with it went back to the g203 and for a 6th of the price it is amazing"

"feels a little bit cheap but then again it is"

"it's very expensive and i don't think it is worth the hugely inflated price for a wired mouse however it does fit my hand perfectly and feels comfortable to use"

"i have large hands and this mouse didn't feel wide enough"

"smaller hands or someone who hasn't used mice that typically weighed more than 85g would probably rate a 5 star instead"

"this mouse is absolutely horrible the sensor is good sure but it's built like a 10 euro hp mouse there's no comfort to be found and consequently your accuracy will drop because the grip is horrible so that sensor really doesn't make up for it maybe if your hands are the size of a 10 year old kid you will like this mouse but if your hand is average or above average don't buy it you will instantly regret it i used it for a month and the discomfort even sligthly injuried one of my fingers"

"did not live up to the standard i had trouble with it double clicking by itself now and then it clicks extra by itself i thought it was new or there was fluff"

"i haven't been let down either"

"i had a microsoft mouse and had bluetooth trouble within windows 10 with lag so i decided to go with this lg g203 mouse so glad i did!"

"what i would change maybe is i'd remove the side buttons as for regular use they can be annoying"

"i sometimes find it uncomfortable to use when gaming as i think it’s a bit too small"

"one more absolute stroke of genius has to be the way they packaged the mouse cable with it being wrapped around a circle piece of plastic meaning no kinks in the cable at all"

"my previous mouse you could add weights which is probably why im struggling with this one"

"very disappointing!"

"well bought this as my old mouse died"

"**this would probably make a good present for children or as their an entry into to pc gaming"

"i tired both side by side and i cannot tell the difference"

"went through plenty of mice in the 5 years i've been pc gaming and i can safely say this mouse is the best mouse i own"

"don't even waste your money on expensive mice"

"the mouse is alright has some obvious drawbacks however such as the mouse right and left click buttons they are very sensitive which i don't think is very appropriate for gaming as most people who are playing a game would not want to end up misclicking and doing something bad in a game just because they put too much weight into their fingers while moving their mouse on accident which has happened to myself "

"everything about it seems to be as advertised"

"fit me like nothing ever has"

"there's nothing positive to be said about it except the sensor which doesn't compensate all the other flaws tl dr this house is built cheap and feels cheap the shape is very uncomfortable the buttons have no responsiveness you're much better off trying to get a deathadder on promotion any zowie mouse on second hand or the steelseries rival dont waste your money on this mouse"

"mouse worked fine for a few weeks but all of a sudden started lagging no matter what settings i change it doesn't get any better"

"my old g502 failed on me and i need a replacement but couldn't at the time justify spending too much"

"really haven't had any problems with this mouse except for some people that may not like it because they are either used to large mouses or it simply doesn't fit their hands"

"if you do buy this mouse i suggest you also buy a £3 crap mouse so you don't get caught short"

"its a cool looking mouse that is lightweight and cheap but it doesnt feel nice in your hand for longer sessions of use"

"performance is awful cheapo chinese one i have that it was replacing is way more responsive it feels laggy its also way too small and uncofortable for regular size hands"

"this is such a nice mouse i'd call it mid size not quite as large as my razer death adder that it replaces but definitely large and ergonomic enough so as to not cause any issues after using it for extended periods"

"this replaced my roccat kova and that replaced my razor abyssus"

"buttons are nice and have a solid click but the ergonomics of it don't quite suit me"

"i set in game mouse sensitivity high to take advantage of highest dpi setting which will make the raw input mouse speed slow but accurate however x11 for the desktop sucks at scaling mouse speed _up_ integer multiply only so changing to one of the lower dpis with the physical button is useful for switching back to a desirable desktop speed"

"standing face to face with a hostile and being unable to frag them or at least return fire because my 'trigger' is jammed is super unhelpful and completely unacceptable for fps gaming"

"good rubber cable but a bit weak at connector so don't bend it hard there"

"the only downside being advertised as a gaming mouse is the lack of buttons"

"as i’m typing this i just realised i can return it but it’s a shame as it’s a good mouse aside from what seems to be a very obscure and unique issue for me"

"in order to change the default dpi for this simple mouse i had to download and install a 300mb software lghub that automatically set itself to start when the computer turned on and had a background updater service that ran continually even when 'check for updates' was disabled within the software "

"materials just feel cheap"

"the mouse itself is very light but there's no weight adjustment"

"good rubber cable but a bit weak at connector so don't bend it hard there"

"you wont go wrong purchasing this mouse at this price"

"i dont think i'd have wanted to pay more than the £24 i paid for it that being said it feels nice quality but it's certainly nothing special"

"as i’m typing this i just realised i can return it but it’s a shame as it’s a good mouse aside from what seems to be a very obscure and unique issue for me"

"if you have large hands a like a full palm contact mouse this might not be for you got for something 1cm longer but i really like it and i have large hands "

"did not live up to the standard i had trouble with it double clicking by itself now and then it clicks extra by itself i thought it was new or there was fluff"

"i used to a more heavy mouse but i find this very comfortable and allows me to play for longer"

"sidenotes: if you wish to change the dpi or rgb lights just google the logitech software and you'll be able to change all that stuff"

"the downloadable software allows some fun customisations but was a little tricky to find on their website"

"it has a bit of a tacky plastic feeling but at a cheap price i can’t really complain all that much"

"i've got larger than average hands and this is just too small for me"

"the mousewheel is a nice thick sturdy rubber plastic notched and the press is quite light with very little noise"

"it is not a gaming mouse as is just has 5 buttons +1 if you count dpi that can be charged if you download the software but if you need a desk mouse that has a backward and forward button for internet browsing and or twitter and i just use it do homework and some chill gaming"

"for this sort of budget there is no better mouse"

"it is not a gaming mouse as is just has 5 buttons +1 if you count dpi that can be charged if you download the software but if you need a desk mouse that has a backward and forward button for internet browsing and or twitter and i just use it do homework and some chill gaming"

"one gripe would be the software trying to contact logitech with who knows what information it may have sucked off my pc but my firewall stopped that"

"but i am aggrieved by the compulsory installation of bloatware to change dpi and going forward will be choosing a non logitech mouse for my fps gaming"

"logitech support equally as useless and responses from a bot on their email chat"

"this mouse improves greatly on the other designs yet keeps things simple and no nonsense: + clean plastic surface throughout + rubber cable + 6 rebind able buttons + dpi switch can be rebinded to another function for those of us that don't switch dpi in game + choice of colour with various modes can be turned off + incremental scroll wheel i have however noticed that the mouse does get warmer on the non breathing mode not sure if this is detrimental or not i suppose it would help in the winter"

"plus it’s not to fussy"

"this was annoying as the colours didn’t match"

"a bit small though and the side buttons are a bit stiff when compared to other mice"

"unfortunately although the shape is fine i find the mouse too light ive got a smooth mouse mat and find controlling the mouse abit tricky"

"ive had a lot of mice all of which ive found issues with even had the logitech g pro wireless had to send a copy back due too button rubbing and the replacement double clicked every time so gave up with it went back to the g203 and for a 6th of the price it is amazing"

"this has to be the worst mouse i have ever used"

"so just to help anyone with this same issue out you need to connect your mouse and go to system preferences mouse and the battery level is in the bottom left hand corner"

"on the other hand if you buy logitech mx master which is more expensive the grip and design is fantastic but it doesn't have all the features of the apple wireless mouse + suffers from buggy software"

"my cheap mouse also has never lost a connection"

"not cheap however if you want gestures and wireless this is the way to go in honesty if gestures are not a big thing and you just need a functional mouse there are plenty cheaper options to choose from"

"very expensive mediocre mouse"

"look great but very uncomfortable to use i have big hand returned to amazon within the day excellent service"

"the batteries although charged up by usb has this problem every day you switch on when it's working it's fine as i said till the next day weird!"

"they are brittle cheap plastic"

"it is the single worst thing i have ever bought i don't care that the charger is on the bottom or that it is insensitive and has to be on a completely flat surface or that you have to lift it and move it to get around the screen yes i downloaded mousezoom and magicprefs to sort this or that it doesn't recognise your gestures properly"

"very disappointed"

"combined with the fact that your hand feels empty this mouse is truly terrible"

"charging is reasonably quick but the one slight disappointment is that you cannot use the mouse while it is charging"

"apple magicmouse1 started going through batteries so had to utilise a non apple product which was just frustrating bit the bullet & annoyingly high cost for the magicmouse2 delighted that "feel" is back and so far after 3 days it has dropped 3% off it's charge"

"magic mouse is probably apple's worst product"

"apparently there are 3rd party software workarounds to address the preposterous acceleration and speed issues but i don't have the will"

"i consider this a wasted purchase"

"fake product do not buy"

"connectivity issues so returned"

"let me start with the only gripe it's small and i have big hands no it's not tiny but for my hands it does get lost a bit"

"only drawback too expensive"

"on the other hand if you buy logitech mx master which is more expensive the grip and design is fantastic but it doesn't have all the features of the apple wireless mouse + suffers from buggy software"

"it's okay but is rather expensive for what it is"

"touch gesture operation is very intuitive and makes using a macbook really easy"

"does the job adequately but typically apple it's expensive for a rechargeable version of the standard product"

"doesn’t work"

"there is a lot of social media nonsense about a design 'fail' because this mouse can't charge while using it"

"hardly the biggest issue and can be done whilst you nip off to make a cup of coffee or have lunch"

"using a brand new macbook so not a software issue"

"love the bluetooth sync and simplicity works on loads of surfaces feels 'quite' nice in the hand love the gestures that map a lot of the mouse pad gestures con's expensive not the most ergonomic for large hands"

"the only annoying thing is that you cannot use it whilst it is charging but even with really heavy use it holds charge for ages"

"love this mouse and the socket on the bottom is not a big issue battery is sed to last for 30 days so charging it over night once a month is hardly an issue"

"it's small awkward and just plain odd"

"another issue worth mentioning for people who use cad software is that these users will normally require a centre button "

"very good but the charger is in a stupid place"

"you can change which gestures it will respond to and i think i'm going to have to turn off the left right swipe gesture as i'm finding it too sensitive when i thought i was scrolling up and down it does a left right swipe instead which is a pain"

"this is the new version that can be recharged rather than using disposable batteries however if it gets flat you have to charge it and wait so not always as convenient works well though"

"have seen some of the negative reviews about the charging point being on the base but easy it's so easy to check what charge is left and lasts for so long that really shouldn't be a problem and is so much better than relying on having batteries to hand"

"for apple to make a wretched mouse only function on their latest bug fest incarnation of osx beggars disbelief"

"it's small awkward and just plain odd"

"i would be returning this but unfortunately got rid of the packaging"

"it's uncomfortable insubstantial fragile feeling and worse imprecise"

"works great but slightly inconvenient that you cannot charge and use at the same time due to the plug being on the flat bottom part of the mouse"

"very expensive mediocre mouse"

"sealed unit so no battery door dropping off or battery connection momentarily failing which was a known problem with the old model"

"it is not a design flaw it is made for a purpose and design"

"i also don't understand the intermittent connection issues"

"this is my first review of an amazon product to save as many people as possible from making this mistake"

"bluetooth connectivity with both my imac and macbook is very patchy"

"as other reviewers have pointed out you cannot recharge the mouse while it is in use but a very occasional overnight charge will sort you out"

"short charge and a little online help was up and running really quickly"

"nice idea but does not work !"

"replaced an earlier version that had become intermittent"

"i bought this to accompany our new macbook pro but the finger pad on the thing is so amazingly good the poor mouse has been out the box once"

"works great but slightly inconvenient that you cannot charge and use at the same time due to the plug being on the flat bottom part of the mouse"

"i once classified myself as a die hard macnut"

"the battery cover stopped working"

"have had a lot of issues with this new mouse apart from the irritating charging port at the bottom which means the mouse has to be laid upside down to recharge it continually drops its bluetooth connection happening two to three times a day"

"item has failed after 5 weeks"

"apple magicmouse1 started going through batteries so had to utilise a non apple product which was just frustrating bit the bullet & annoyingly high cost for the magicmouse2 delighted that "feel" is back and so far after 3 days it has dropped 3% off it's charge"

"apple mla02z a magic mouse 2"

"i did however send this product back as i much prefer to use the magic apple trackpad2 this seems to be much faster"

"nice sleekly designed mouse with a couple of design flaws: first the charging port is on the bottom of the mouse so you can't use it while charging however battery life is good and i've only had to charge once in 2 months of use"

"you miss the third click that you can configure to do other actions quickly"

"like trying to work with a very heavy bar of soap"

"i ended up sending it back as i couldn't t use it for more than an hour"

"end of replacing batteries just at the wrong time"

"keeps its charge well and isn't too much of a pain to charge when required if you are desperate to continue to use your computer you can put it on to charge and go and have a coffee"

"apple store tested it and was also stumped as to why most likely a failed optical sensor"

"the two main issues are that the sensor is positioned too far forward and the mouse is completely the wrong shape and size for a hand"

"a complete and utter waste of hard earned money"

"a product "fault" in my opinion!"

"quite pricey for mouse but i guess you get what you pay for"

"there's nothing wrong with the mouse just the software"

"unfortunately design for connection to charge it is underneath it which is poorly thought out"

"a retrograde step by apple it hasn't the right feel and forced me to upgrade to el crapitano which i really regret"

"this product is surprisingly slow even at the most sensitive setting"

"so whole process was a bit clumsy and frankly wearing out my port with all the plugging and unplugging"

"apparently there are 3rd party software workarounds to address the preposterous acceleration and speed issues but i don't have the will"

"the charging port is on the bottom which would mean you are unable to use the mouse when charging but this shouldn't take long as it is a small battery"

"it is very unreliable and keeps losing connection and refusing to re connect"

"having said this it does last for extremely long periods between charges so in the end its only a minor complaint "

"go to a cheap shop buy a cheap mouse and"

"supplied with old style cable plus usb end why is it not the new c ports cable so you cant charge from mac air"

"best mouse ever mac is incomplete without this"

"i once classified myself as a die hard macnut"

"only bad apple product i have ever purchased"

"charging this doesn't"

"and finding that i was having occasional short disconnections and reconnections with no action from me"

"aside look and battery life this mouse is only a pain to be used"

"the charge cable was missing"

"but they are wrong"

"doing anything more complicated is impossible as you would have to release your grip and the mouse is too light to stay in position meaning that most gestures just result it the mouse moving under your hand"

"if i hit the side of the keyboard or the printer by accident the mouse sat in between it would lose connection"

"i have a macbook 2015 and macbook air 2013 model at home and this mouse was slow in them as well"

"this is a greatly overpriced mouse"

"recharge lightning socket on underside is really no big deal"

"be lost without it"

"this shouldn't be happening between two expensive apple devices but there are loads of people with similar issues on google"

"nice looking but the scrolling function does not work so i have to return it"

"this mouse works as advertised but the ergonomics grip is really badly design by apple"

"some bad design on the part of apple but that together with poorer quality software is something we are having to live with now"

"don't know how i managed before without this"

"and don't buy a new mac book pro 15 expecting to get anywhere near the advertised battery life in fact if you are using anything intensive it can drop to three hours"

"having said this it does last for extremely long periods between charges so in the end its only a minor complaint "

"this one doesn't have that problem"

"a retrograde step by apple it hasn't the right feel and forced me to upgrade to el crapitano which i really regret"

"it also has a few useful features being able to scroll the page and reposition things by dragging along the mouse can be really useful although sometimes it doesn’t always quite figure out first time what you are trying to do"

"i put it together again but right clicking no longer worked"

"let me start with the only gripe it's small and i have big hands no it's not tiny but for my hands it does get lost a bit"

"love this mouse and the socket on the bottom is not a big issue battery is sed to last for 30 days so charging it over night once a month is hardly an issue"

"this is the new version that can be recharged rather than using disposable batteries however if it gets flat you have to charge it and wait so not always as convenient works well though"

"i don't see why the lightning connector being on the bottom should bother people"

"took it to apple and they replaced it"

"the item would not charge"

"i can't tell you how many times i've dropped that and it still works"

"there's nothing wrong with the mouse just the software"

"this device is a calamity"

"avoid unless your idea of slick computer productivity is frustration and arm ache"

"would not buy again"

"not value for money"

"there is only 1 con to this item though which doesn't bother yet me but it may do to other people"

"admitadly i dont use my computer often but the mouse has not been switched off for this whole time yet has hardly used any battery"

"i have given it away and will never buy another!"

"now that the pain of paying for it is a distant memory and i have a sleek elegant mouse that matches the imac i'm happy"

"if you're running os x yosemite then it won't work to my disappointment unless you upgrade to os x el capitan google it i believe it also applies to apple's latest keyboard"

"i tried to fix them with hot melt glue but then the thing wouldn't work at all"

"i don’t feel very comfortable with low height mouse as this one"

"its very peculiar as to why they thought this would be a good idea but it doesn't really affect me as it doesn't take long to charge and maintains the charge for a very long time so it also wouldn't matter if i forgot to charge it for a few months"

"don't kid yourself like i did you don't need this"

"and finding that i was having occasional short disconnections and reconnections with no action from me"

"pairing issues and now packed up"

"apparently there are 3rd party software workarounds to address the preposterous acceleration and speed issues but i don't have the will"

"it is the single worst thing i have ever bought i don't care that the charger is on the bottom or that it is insensitive and has to be on a completely flat surface or that you have to lift it and move it to get around the screen yes i downloaded mousezoom and magicprefs to sort this or that it doesn't recognise your gestures properly"

"love the bluetooth sync and simplicity works on loads of surfaces feels 'quite' nice in the hand love the gestures that map a lot of the mouse pad gestures con's expensive not the most ergonomic for large hands"

"i want my money back!"

"a retrograde step by apple it hasn't the right feel and forced me to upgrade to el crapitano which i really regret"

"this is the new version that can be recharged rather than using disposable batteries however if it gets flat you have to charge it and wait so not always as convenient works well though"

"e lags behind jumps erratically etc restarting my macbook helps but only for a short while"

"bang on old one was buggered its expensive but works good"

"very frustrating and definitely not value for money sorry apple"

"it's quite heavy and having paid £60 for a mouse i would recommend getting a case for it if you don't have something to protect it from everyday knocks"

"it is a nice mouse in what it can do but cranky in operation"

"you can change which gestures it will respond to and i think i'm going to have to turn off the left right swipe gesture as i'm finding it too sensitive when i thought i was scrolling up and down it does a left right swipe instead which is a pain"

"doesn't need charged very often"

"i purchased this around 5 weeks ago and this mouse still has 80% battery"

"alternatively you can go a make a cup of coffee maybe water the garden and come back to your work station and find hay ho its working"

"keeps dropping out even when fully charged"

"had after market mice before and they are irritating and this does not have the issues they have"

"for apple to make a wretched mouse only function on their latest bug fest incarnation of osx beggars disbelief"

"this has not been picked up for return doesn’t wait at all no charge"

"it was expensive but so are batteries and they don't last"

"i like to be able to move the pointer quickly around the full screen with little movement of the mouse of my limited size computer desk and this disappoints in that area"

"it's very difficult to right click with the palm of your hand over the left hand side of the mouse you have to lift your palm"

"i don't have particularly large hands but i find this mouse very awkward to use"

"it's handy having this mouse but the recharging design is bad"

"will have to buy a usb mouse as this apple product is rubbish"

"i'm sticking to my magic mouse 1 for now or until it breaks"

"design is a bit weird in that you can't charge it and use it the cable plugs into the bottom of the mouse but tbh it charges so quickly and so infrequently that isn't an issue"

"i ended up buying the trackpad 2 and haven't looked back"

"also had one unit die on me which was replaced by amazon"

"i care about the fact that using it makes my right arm want to fall off and my wrist disintegrate"

"i have to move it about lift it up show the computer to it then its away working till the next time or day you go to use the computer my old battery mouse never done this it either worked or it had flat batteries i always left this old mouse on over night but this new one where you cannot change"

"the new rechargeable version has not exhibited this issue"

"i think i was unlucky this mouse was not perfect"

"did everything i expected it to but then again at the price i paid it should do"

"it also lacks the little light that was on the old non rechargable mouse to tell you its charge condition"

"it's a shame the charging point is underneath meaning that the mouse sits upside down whilst charging and also a shame that it can't be used whilst charging because of this"

"so i have no idea how long to leave it on charge for one hour five hours i have no idea however your mac will tell you how much charge it has when you're using it"

"the supplier was fine but the mouse was awful and completely different to the first version of the magic mouse"

"however the ergonomics from my point of view simply don't work"

"it no longer works"

"easily the worst mouse ever made"

"for the amount of money this item costs in my opinion its a piece of rubbish"

"the only annoying thing is that you cannot use it whilst it is charging but even with really heavy use it holds charge for ages"

"it doesn't move smoothly due to the design of the 2 plastic runners it moves on"

"seems not to hold a good bluetooth fix and tends to lose its laser clarity"

"very frustrating and definitely not value for money sorry apple"

"apple are seriously losing it"

"the catch no longer clicked shut"

"i've never before used a mouse that is so vague and inconsistent"

"i think especially because of the price it could be better made"

"it's pretty but i'd go for a more traditional mouse shape if you don't want hand cramp"
