Logitech - M500s Advanced Wired Laser Mouse with Hyper-fast Scrolling - Black This mouse has very simple but very useful features. It fits well in my hand. Is super fast, scrolls smooth and has plenty of features. Overall i am pleased with this mouse.

You'll see from the pictures that this is very similar in size to my Logitech wireless mouse of the same series number. What I like about this mouse, is the slightly larger size feels just a bit more comfortable in my hand. It moves freely around, it is wired but I like a wired mouse in some applications for accuracy and response. I found this worked for the fine motor skills of a mouse for AutoCAD. That is important as I spend a lot of time in that program and the speed I move around the drawings, or also for the accuracy, that is important. I used this for some gaming and found it works great for that too. This has shortcuts keys for things and an excellent scrolling wheel with selections for both clicky scroll or smooth scroll, one of my favorite Logitech features. A nice mouse, great price, and with Logitech quality, you cannot go wrong!

I've been using the mouse for a little over a week now as my main mouse for work every day. I had a cheap unbranded mouse before, so this has overall been a slight upgrade. The mouse fits nicely around my hand and is comfortable to hold and use. I'm on windows 10, so I just plugged in the mouse and started using it. It is accurate out of the box and works well. The one negative for me is the way the back and forward buttons on the side work. They are too soft, so you're not sure if you did or didn't touch them. Most mice now have these there, so while it's nice to have if you don't have a mouse with it, I am expecting more of a click. The scroll wheel also lets you click left and right, which is a neat feature but not one I'm using at all probably as its new, and I just don't feel its that useful. Overall a decent office mouse to use, and an upgrade from a cheap unbranded mouse.

CONS —— None.

When you first try the Logitech M500s Wired Optical Mouse you notice a few things right away. This M500s feels great, is very well built and operates smoothly. Next, allow the software Logitech OPTIONS to customize everything about the M500s. Lastly, enjoy operating your computer again! • Plug n Play is a great feature! Plug it in straight out of the box to a USB port, get going with the corded mouse and never have to worry about changing out batteries again. The cord is plenty long so you won’t be tugging on the mouse for extra (6ft). I had no trouble at all, plugging in the mouse and using it right away. • After you sign in/create account, you will have access to all this mouse has to offer. Logitech OPTIONS software allows you to customize 7 buttons with short cut selections. (Just wanted to mention the software is around 200MBs) There are an amazing amount of shortcuts per button on the M500s in the software. In the Logitech OPTIONS software I sped up the cursor to about half way. It is definitely responsive as I tried both ends of speed, until I found what I liked the best. The 7 figure configurable shortcut options have a large amount of customization. Do you want an activity for one of the 7 buttons? All choices are laid out in front of you in the Logitech OPTIONS software. • One great advantage the Logitech M500s is the “Hyper-fast scrolling!” It moves through the web and anything that needs scrolling up or down. The Scroll wheel literally spins with a simple flick of the finger. I especially liked this feature with Fantasy Football information on the web. There is a ton of information out there, and this wheel makes it simple to see it all quickly. You can also use click to click that most conventional mice use. To switch between the two styles, press the scroll mode wheel button on the top of the mouse. • I got better all round tracking on the computer with the M500s DPI (Dots Per Inch). This Logitech mouse uses an optical reader that performs at a high level between 400dpi-4000dpi. It is fast, quick, concise and accurate while using it on the computer. The optical and DPI really make a positive difference while using your M500s mouse on screen. • The full size Logitech M500s fits your hand so comfortably. With built in contours and added rubber siding, I used the mouse all day and never felt fatigued. It was comfortable and very natural to every part of the hand. The buttons are also easy reach and click or scroll. I really enjoyed using this Logitech M500s corded mouse model. The M500s conforms to your hand, uses an optical reader (4000 DPI) and has software to customize it. The M500s is a very useful mouse when operating your computer and makes movements that much better.

One of the most common devices for the computer is the mouse and really hasn’t drastically changed over the years. With minor improvements here and there, besides a few extremes, but for the most part have similar design and feel. The Logitech M500S is an improvement from their M500 in adding more programmable options and the ability to adjust the DPI. They advertise 7 customizable buttons, but the Left/Right mouse buttons are just customizable to Right/Left while you have options with the Logitech Options software to assign the other 5. This includes the two buttons by the thumb, which default for Forward/Backward and the Left/Right/Down click of the scroll wheel. You pick from a list of functions, like open application/file/video/folder, copy/paste or assign your own key combination. You can also assign one of the functions to switch DPI, or pointer speed, to your desired setting. You can enable/disable smooth scrolling in the application, but also you can release the scroll wheel with the click of a button to spin smoothly as well. For the most part this feels like a standard mouse with a little customization provided you have the software installed. The custom options don’t stay with the mouse if you choose to hook it to another device. However, the customization adds some conveniences to every day computer use.

This is my go to gaming mouse. The two side buttons function perfectly for using voice services like discord, mumble, teamspeak, you name it! The lock/unlock function on the scroll wheel makes life easier when scrolling through long documents as I write my dissertation. The size is nice too as I find too many mice are either too small or too large. Its very much a goldilocks mouse in my opinion because, it fits me juuuust right. Also the mouse lasts. Like seriously, my last one of these lasted a solid 4 years. The smooth rubber on the left side wore through to plastic on my last mouse.

This unit solved all my “skipping Bluetooth mouse” problems, firstly, of course, because it is a direct-wired USB device! However, all kidding aside, it’s overall build quality, ergonomics, and laser utilization are excellent. I can’t find a surface upon which it doesn’t deliver smooth operation. The scroll wheel’s width and resistance to turning deliver a very smooth response. Truthfully, this mouse has a lot of features I don’t use in my work, But if the other buttons perform like the ones I’m familiar with, this mouse is an elegant tool!

Very happy with this Logitech mouse. Have enjoyed Logitech mice ever since their 1980s 3-button mouse. Needed a wired mouse because I'm sick of wastefully replacing the non-rechargeable batteries in wireless products. Needed a mouse with more than three buttons to make navigating web pages and code easier, but this mouse effectively has two more than that as part of the mouse wheel (tilt the wheel left or right for horizontal scrolling). Good: This mouse has the extra buttons I wanted. The extra buttons in the mouse wheel for horizontal scrolling are very useful, too. The hardware switch next to the wheel that allows the mouse wheel to spin freely is an unexpectedly pleasant feature for scrolling (vertically) quickly and/or for scrolling long documents. The grip is comfortable and allows my fingers to reach every button accurately without accidentally clicking the wrong one. The weight of the device is heavy enough to feel firm in my hand, but not so heavy that it causes fatigue. Unknown: I don't use a mouse for PC gaming, so I don't have any advice for gamers. Bad: Because this mouse is plug-and-play (it just works after you plug it in and Windows recognizes it), the optional software that Logitech provides for customizing the behavior of the mouse is unreasonably large (on disk and in memory it is larger than personal computer disks and memory were from the era of Logitech's beginning in the 1980s) and thankfully completely unnecessary for my needs (scrolling and navigating, but not gaming). To redefine what the mouse buttons do, AutoHotkey is a lighter-weight and more powerful tool, and works with any mouse on Windows.

Logitech-M500s Advanced Wired Laser Mouse has performed as advertised. Controls are well placed, scrolling is fast, ergonomics are comfortable and well designed. I have been using this Laser Mouse extensively over the past two months and have no regrets in purchasing the Logitech-M500s Advanced Wired Laser Mouse.

Fit my hand nicely. Quick, smooth, side to side scrolling wheel. two thumb buttons. A tad heavy.

Great mouse - better than any I have ever had - will do very fine detail! Very accurate which I needed Service Great - scroll wheel broke in 27 days - Walk in to store - They replaced it & also gave me $10 for my trouble The scroll wheel on 1st one must have been defective because the replacemen is smooth as glass - much better that the first one -

Excellent value. Easy to use; fits my hand easily. Easy to scroll.

Simple, easy to use, performs well, and has the free wheel setting for free scrolling.

I bought this mouse for my new laptop. I chose it based on the reviews. And they were correct. This mouse is easy to use and only one plug needed. It's better than my desktop mouse! Highly recommended.

Very fast scrolling mouse. Works great. Easy to navagate whatever work you are doing.

Comfortable in my hand, and the wheel works well. I am still not used to the side buttons. I tend to forget about them, never had them before. but overall the mouse works great

Love the ergonomic shape of this mouse and the dial that allows Neto scroll quickly from left to right. This model is an upgrade for me. Very comfortable to use.

Great mouse! Super fast scrolling and easy to use!

I forgot how great a wired mouse can be. This particular mouse feels awesome in your hand. It is perfect for long hours on the computer. A lot of mice are too small and not comfortable for long amounts of time. This mouse has a couple of programmable buttons, and options for the scroll wheel as well. I had been using a wireless Logitech mouse for the last couple years, but I honestly like this mouse better. Considering buying a second one in case they decide not to carry it any more at some point in the future.
