    Great Budget Mouse for Daily Use

    I bought the Logitech M196 a few weeks ago, and I’m really happy with it. It’s super lightweight and easy to use, perfect for carrying around with my laptop. The Bluetooth connection pairs quickly and stays stable, and the tracking feels smooth on most surfaces. I like that it only needs one AA battery and still lasts a long time. The size is small but still comfortable to hold, even for longer use. It’s great for everyday work, studying, and casual use. For the price, the quality is impressive. Definitely a great budget wireless mouse I’d recommend to anyone.

    BEST MOUSE EVER

    I absolutely love this mouse, and I love the fact that it’s Bluetooth and wireless. I didn’t even know that that was even possible and I thought having a wireless mouse was really really cool but having a Bluetooth mouse is so much better and it just opened my eyes too how much I needed this. It’s so easy to move and click and it feels great on the hands the color option is so cute like I love anything pink and it’s so easy to hook up. It’s so easy to turn on and it’s my favorite mouse that I absolutely have moving forward. I will always go with this brand this color and honestly sticking to Bluetooth mouses are the best. It literally connects so fast too that’s what I love about it like my other mouses don’t connect that fast but this one immediately does and it’s even better because it’s pink.

    Item as described and works perfectly for day to day use. Easy to carry and a quick bluetooth connection without any additional mouse adapter is a plus. Worth every dollar, if you are looking for a simple bluetooth mouse don’t think any further, just go for it.

    I've always had wireless mice that connect with a USB dongle and wanted to not use the single port on my Chromebook, and so I finally decided to get a Bluetooth mouse...I chose this since it was low priced and with a trusted Logitech brand. The mouse includes an AA battery and was so easy to connect to Bluetooth without any issues...It is very responsive and feels good in the hand. A great simple mouse!

    A quality low cost BT mouse that will likely last

    This is a nice low cost Bluetooth mouse - Logitech mice are always so much nicer than generic brands and built with a level of quality I've come to trust. Of note for this mouse is that it comes with a battery which is supposed to be good for a year. Also it has a power button where one press turns it on with a red LED to confirm, and another press turns it off without any indication - this is potentially better than previous generations which used a switch that gets worn down over time and becomes difficult to engage. Physically it is a compact mouse, but it is larger than the M317 or M325 and at least for me it is slightly less comfortable in the hand because of it. The tracking seems good. The scroll wheel has subtle physical detents as you scroll to provide feedback, like the M317. The buttons have a lighter click than the ones on the M317/M325, but still provides positive feedback. When paired with MS Windows, the battery level is also displayed. The mouse also pairs fine with an Android tablet, however it will only pair with one device at a time. Overall I this is a fine functional mouse and one I can recommend.

    I really like this mouse! The fact that it is Bluetooth and doesn't take up one of my USB ports is great. I had zero trouble linking to my new Chromebook and it works like a charm. It does have the "click" sound, which I prefer. I know they have the silent ones now, but I prefer to hear the clicks to know it registered. Haha. It is comfortable to hold and had a power button to conserve battery.

    I would say overall this is a really great product! It's a pretty good quality unit overall to control your devices cursor via Bluetooth. Fully satisfied. I really simple button on the bottom allows you to not only connect swiftly to devices but also turn the unit off. Of course it turns itself off after about 10 or 15 minutes of inactivity. Logitech always makes a good product in my book. Thanks for reading.
