Reviewed on October 21, 2009Apple's new wireless Magic Mouse gets a sleek makeover and even has multitouch controls, but it's better as a portable laptop companion rather than a full-size desktop accessory. The swiping gestures add interactivity to Web browsing and media, but the awkwardly narrow single button design leaves us reaching for better mice from Logitech and others.TAGS:mouse, Apple Computer, Logitech, Apple iMac, Apple Mac OS X, button, battery, Apple Macintosh
Reviewed on August 19, 2008Logitech's MX 1100 wireless laser mouse is the best in its class thanks to a wide array of features that make navigation easier. You have to pay for all of that capability, but anyone who puts serious time in front of a PC will appreciate what this mouse can do.TAGS:Logitech, wheel, mouse, laser, button, battery
Reviewed on August 24, 2006Every year we think Logitech has pushed the cordless laser mouse to the limit of functionality, and we're always proved wrong. The MX Revolution has a few minor issues, but for the most part, this high-end mouse continues Logitech's streak of market leadership and innovative design.TAGS:Logitech, sensitivity, laser, wheel, mouse, button
Reviewed on September 21, 2009The Anywhere Mouse MX bears Logitech's multiconnective Unifying receiver and glass-tracking Darkfield laser, but $80 is too much for a portable mouse--especially when the Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 costs half the price for almost the same features.TAGS:Logitech, mouse, transceiver, laser, receiver, battery, keyboard, button, USB, Microsoft Corp., Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on April 11, 2005The Logitech MX518's adjustable sensitivity, customizable buttons, and comfortable grip are sure to please right-handed gamers.TAGS:optical mouse, Logitech, sensitivity, mouse, gamer, button, games
Reviewed on June 4, 2009Microsoft's SideWinder X8 isn't the only mouse that can swap seamlessly between wired and wireless modes; however, between its BlueTrack sensor and its on-the-fly macro recording capability--not to mention a competitive price--we imagine few PC gamers won't want to get their hands on it.TAGS:mouse, gamer, layout, design, button, Microsoft Corp., games
Reviewed on October 11, 2007Usually we're fans of Logitech's gaming mice, but its highest-end G9 Laser Mouse is expensive, overly complex, and lacks the ergonomic thought we've come to expect. If you like to brag about dot-per-inch limits, perhaps the G9's 3,200dpi laser will be enough to sell you, but for the price, we expect the design to match.TAGS:Logitech, mouse, grip, attachment, games, design, button
Reviewed on October 4, 2007Microsoft took almost every popular feature of various high-end gaming mice and wrapped it into one highly customizable product. The design could use a little refinement, but otherwise the new Sidewinder Gaming Mouse would be a worthy addition to your PC gaming arsenal.TAGS:Logitech, mouse, weight, gamer, laser, Microsoft Corp., games, button, LCD
Reviewed on August 20, 2009The Microsoft Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000 is a solid keyboard and mouse combination with a bevy of customizable buttons that make it a no-brainer to use with a home theater PC, but the asymmetrical button layout on the keyboard requires time to learn. If you're looking for a more ergonomic desktop set and willing to put in a little work, the Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000 will serve you well.TAGS:Logitech, keyboard, mouse, laser, button, Microsoft Corp., battery
Reviewed on February 27, 2007Razer's DeathAdder gaming mouse is a powerful accessory for fans of 3D shooters and others who might demand a high degree of customizability in their mice. We wish that Razer had delivered on its promise of Vista support out of the box, but aside from that and a few other issues, the DeathAdder performs exceptionally well.TAGS:Razer, mouse, Logitech, button, Microsoft Windows Vista, gamer, games, Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on March 20, 2007Logitech finally earns a CNET Editors' Choice award with this update to its flagship gaming mouse. An extra thumb button, an updated laser sensor, and more convenient and flexible customization options than the competition make this mouse easy to recommend to any PC gamer.TAGS:Razer, Logitech, sensitivity, mouse, button, weight, laser, gamer, games, PC
Reviewed on June 10, 2009Even semicompetitive PC gamers can get away with a less expensive mouse, but for the most dedicated, the Razer Mamba provides unmatched precision whether it's connected directly to your PC or set free in wireless mode. If Razer fixed a few design and features issues, we'd feel better about the price.TAGS:Razer, mouse, profile, gamer, laser, Logitech, button, battery, Microsoft Corp.
Reviewed on December 12, 2005It's wireless and stylish, and it offers several useful features, but the Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 has a cheap, lightweight feel that hurts this otherwise well-designed keyboard-and-mouse set.TAGS:laser, mouse, keyboard, Logitech, key, button, Microsoft Corp.
Reviewed on March 16, 2007Aimed at relieving or preventing the onset of repetitive stress injuries, Microsoft's new mouse seems to have the right idea in its redesign of the standard mouse grip. If Microsoft's hardware design team had paid as much attention to some of its other elements, this mouse would be a winner.TAGS:3M Co., thumb, wrist, mouse, wheel, design, Microsoft Corp., button
Reviewed on October 12, 2009Although it's not our favorite keyboard and mouse combination, the Logitech Wireless Desktop MK700 set earns our recommendation for its comfortable "Incurve" key design, quick scrolling mouse, and impressive battery life. If you're looking to upgrade your input devices and are on a budget, this $100 combination deserves your attention.TAGS:Logitech, dial, keyboard, key, mouse, battery life, laser, battery, light-emitting diode, button, LCD
Reviewed on June 1, 2006The Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 5000 is a good precision mouse for left-handers, but righties would be better off with a mouse designed for that hand.TAGS:laser, mouse, Logitech, Microsoft Corp., button
