Logitech M557 Bluetooth Mouse – Wireless Mouse with 1 Year Battery Life, Side-to-Side Scrolling, and Right or Left Hand Use with Apple Mac or Microsoft Windows Computers and Laptops, Gray

This mouse frequently freezes up on Windows 10. It happens mostly at random, but I can replicate the freezing by using the scroll wheel, left clicking, then right clicking within a few seconds. The problem doesnt seem to be the mouse itself, but the drivers for Windows 10. Ive read that it works fine on Windows 7, but I havent tested it. The reason why I believe it is a driver issue is because when it freezes up, sometimes the mouse wont register left and/or right clicks, and even the touchpad on my Lenovo Miix 700 wont work properly until I restart the application Im in or explorer.exe. Ive also tried it on two different computers,both running Windows 10, one with internal bluetooth and one with a dongle, and the issue persists. I purchased a Logitech MX Anywhere 2 mouse and it works really well, so the issue is with either the mouse itself or the drivers.

Got this mouse for my new iMac. Getting the drivers for it was a little tough, the Logitech site kept telling me there was no drivers or software for this mouse. I kept being told I NEED THE DRIVERS lol. Talk about being between a rock and a hard place hehe. I have no idea how I did it, but I found drivers for it at Logitech even though they kept telling me there was none lol. If I am confused, I hate to say what they are. But I know the STARS are not to represent more than the product itself, not the extra experiences that is sometime tough to ignore. My dislike on this mouse is it is not smooth at all. Scrolling with the center wheel on a web site (like this one) is very jittery or stuttery. The other mouse (Apple) does the scrolls very smoothly. It is odd enough to make it annoying and not easy or comfortable on the eyes. I know there are lots of 5 Stars for this, but my experience is a 1 Star experience. I may even return it. I am using it (the mouse) on a new 2017 iMac i7 27 inch computer. The software and drivers are loaded up. It just isnt smooth. Even cheaper mouse(s) on my PC computer are smoother with the scroll wheel. On the plus side, the mouse WILL scroll left and right when you tilt the center wheel left and right. And it will zoom in the browsers, and inside programs like Final Cut Pro. It just feels like it needs some buffer or something to scroll smoothly. I would like to give it more, but 1 Star is all I can give it in respect for others who may buy this for their new 20127 iMac.

This mouse worked fine for a few months. Now it drops the bluetooth connection every few days. Then I have to remove it from the device list; restart my computer; add it to the device list; move it around several times; and wait for it to drop the connection in a few days so I can go through the process all over again. This is my second purchase of this mouse. The same thing happened with the first mouse I bought a few years ago. I was hoping the first mouse was an unfortunate bit of bad luck. I was wrong; they are all VERY BAD MICE.

I bought this mouse just four months ago. I work in the high tech industry and take care of my gadgets, and took normal care of the mouse - no drops, no harsh use, etc. It worked well for four months and now the left button doesnt work, and the mouse cant move the pointer. Only the right button works. I changed batteries, reset the mouse, restarted the computer, etc. but that didnt help. Logitechs website doesnt help, and they make it difficult to do an RMA, or even chat with someone in support (Ive been on "chat hold" for a long time). Beware! With all the time I have wasted on this today, Im just going to buy another mouse, and it will not be a Logitech!
