Logitech M720 Triathalon Multi-Device Wireless Mouse – Easily Move Text, Images and Files Between 3 Windows and Apple Mac Computers Paired with Bluetooth or USB, Hyper-Fast Scrolling, Black

التعليق

I use this mouse across 3 devices one Mac, one Windows and one Linux. It works flawlessly and not having to keep track of a dongle is absolutely wonderful. It is comfortable and the programmable buttons make it perfect for all of my devices. This is one of the best mice I have used and it stays comfortable for all day use. The reason that I gave it 4 out of 5 is that some times it does not want to come back on my Mac if it has gone to sleep. I have a Logitech bluetooth keyboard that will wake the mac from sleep but this mouse seems to not want to work some times. Once the mac is awake I get a prompt that there is no mouse connected. When this occurs I have to open spotlight using KB shortcuts and then open the BT menu, once this is open I wiggle the mouse and it repairs. So far this is the only method short of connecting another mouse that I have been able to use to get it working again.

Lured by the notion of combining the Logitech K811 keyboard with the M720 and creating a useable KVM solution, I dived in head-first without thinking about the alternative: K811 + two mice. Having two keyboards on the desk obviously wouldnt fly but two mice on a large mouse pad is quite workable (not need to switch both keyboard and mouse). While not completely dissatisfied with the M720, I found that the quality is not up to scratch compared to the M557 and the G602 that I already own. Dont get me wrong, there are many pros to this mouse: * Good design, well-sculpted and suits a RIGHT-HANDED user very nicely (not a deal breaker for lefties but its a compromise) * Perfect size for medium sized hands. Halfway between a full-sized and travel mouse * Its the only multi-device mouse from Logitech with the switch button on the top! * It has a storage cubby for the receiver (in case you encounter a non-BT device) * Very nicely weighted and glides smoothly on my mouse pad (unlike the M557) * Highly customisable buttons Loses a star for the following reasons: * Rubbery texture prone to scratches and build-up of grime * It looks and feels sort of cheap and plasticky (especially the white base) * Pricey I have the K811 and M720 paired with a Surface Pro 3 running Windows 10 and a Mac Mini with Sierra. It works flawlessly. While there is a slight delay flicking between the devices, I find that its a better user experience than a KVM switch or software-based solution (I have tried them all). Probably could have gotten by with just the K811 and a mouse for each computer on the desk.

I am a big Logitech fan, so Im not disappointed in any way with this mouse. However, I *am* disappointed that the Logitech Options software doesnt see my Bluetooth devices on my Mac (High Sierra O/S), and the support person didnt have any immediate answers. They are referring the issue to engineering, but Im puzzled why they dont know whether it should run on High Sierra. If this gets resolve soon Ill update the review and bump it to 5 stars, but for now dinging them for failing on getting Logitech Options to work.

Had this for about two months. Doesnt work via bluetooth with PS4 (ps4 doesnt support whatever new version of bluetooth these have. It tries to connect and fails.) This is important because my PS4 slim only has two usb ports, one is used by a HDD and one by this keyboard/mouse. If I want to use my headset I need to remove my keyboard/mouse, which is a problem for FFXIV or any game where you want text and voice communication. Works fine via the unifying receiver to PS4/PC. Finally being able to use a single peripheral for multiple devices without having to rebind it is a really nice thing. Switching between devices is essentially instant too. My bluetooth experience even on a PC has been poor though. Could be a driver issue (I have an intel AC 7260 with bluetooth) or it could be whatever version of bluetooth these things have. Ive surrendered to using the Unifying Receiver and I do IT for a living. Pro -Multiple device binding -Swapping devices is very fast -Can use unifying AND/OR bluetooth -Works on any surface ive thrown it on Con -Bluetooth has been difficult for me -Slightly small for my man hands

I got this mouse to help me with some 3D and CAD work I do. I usually use a Wacom tablet because of my tendonitis, but for some software, a mouse is better. I really like the ergonomics of this mouse, my hands are not big but this fits fine. I also use it for casual gaming, but in that case, it feels kind of heavy. I wish you could control the weigh on these mice because other than that is almost perfect for my needs. Pairing with Bluetooth is very quick no errors. I have connected to three computers and pushing the sync button works fine every time. (one DEll work station a custom PC and Surface book. Now when you try to assign the buttons to a different function than default here is where the software fails. I use different 3D and CAD software and I would like to have a different button combination for each of them. With the actual software is a hit a miss, I mostly have problems with the middle button, it just recognizes one time then it doesnt work anymore. in 3D Max, it doesnt work, with MOD it works half of the time. I give up on custom configuration and just use default now, everything works fine, but I really bought this mice because of the promised custom configuration, hopefully, with a software update this could be fixed. I would recommend these mice if you would like to use the same mice for different machines, is not big or small, but on the heavy side.

I want to like this mouse so badly. I have been using an M705 marathon mouse for 4 or 5 years now. I love the M705, but the left-click button is totally unreliable, and there are copious negative reviews about this type of reliability issue, so I decided to try something new. In almost every single way except for style, this mouse feels inferior to the 705.. 1) The right edge of the mouse is too narrow for both your ring finger and pinky to grasp the side, so your ring finger naturally rests on the very edge of the seam between the top and right sides. Theres enough space on top to move your ring finger side-by-side with your middle finger on the right-click button, but it just feels wrong to have three fingers on top of the mouse, and forces your middle finger to cram next to the scroll wheel. 2) The contour of the thumb rest doesnt align well with the rest of the mouse. Its like they developed the thumb rest for an entirely different hand position. You can grip it so it feels nice, but the rest of your fingers will move to an incorrect position. 3) The middle mouse wheel is lighter and lower quality than M705. In fly mode, its a lot more floaty and loose feeling. 4) The overall weight distribution is heavily back-weighted.

Ive been using the M705 since 2011 when it came with my "Logitech MK710 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo". Keyboard is long gone but I loved the mouse and have purchased a couple more of them since but after all these years I figured it was about time to get an updated mouse and connect it using bluetooth to save a USB port and be able to use it on other devices. Decided to give it a test run for 15 minutes just to get a feel of it before even considering installing the new software and testing out its features. My observations comparing it to the M705 are: - Wheel when put in fast scroll mode felt lighter and looser, which to me was a neutral thing - The mouse itself didnt feel as solid. Whether or not its true it made me think it was a little cheaper in build quality but this wasnt a big deal either - It is completely coated in a matte rubber material... this just bugged the whole time I used it so I didnt bother trying out the new features This couldve been a decent replacement for me and I really tried to like it but unfortunately, even given time, I know I wouldnt be able to get over the rubber coating because it felt sticky and I can imagine it becoming dirty looking fairly quickly due to this. Sooooo close... guess theres a reason why Ive been using the M705 for so long... 7yrs! For those that like the grippy feel, give this guy a try; the mouse seems OK. For me though the M720 will most likely be going back.

Potential buyers who are committed to (trapped in?) the Apple ecosystem need to be aware of the Bluetooth problems of incompatibility and non-operability for this Logitech device. (And presumably for similar Logitech devices that rely on BT LE / 4.0 / Smart). 1. Regarding compatibility, users / buyers need to be aware that this device, the M720, relies on BT LE / 4.0 / Smart (all three labels seem to refer to the same BT protocol) in order to work over BT. So, the multi-device M720 mouse will not work with laptops or desktops that are, generally speaking, more than a couple of years old. If you are contemplating this device for compatibility with an older Mac that uses BT 3.0, you will likely find that your older Mac and this mouse will not communicate via BT. (Though, yes, they will probably work thru the M720s included USB dongle / receiver. To check your machines BT specs, go to About this Mac > System Report > Hardware > Bluetooth. IF your Macs BT is not "yes" for low energy (LE) capabilities, then its not BT 4.0 / Smart.) 2. Worse, regarding operability, the modern Logitech BT devices... maybe modern BT devices from all vendors / brands.... do not seem to work properly or reliably even with the newest Macs and OS X from Apple (as of Dec. 2018). Certainly in my own case, my new M720 does not work properly with my new Mac Mini 2018 running the latest version of OS X Mojave: Upon startup or restart, the Mac fails to recognize the M720 over BT, necessitating that I initiate login with a *separate* mouse that uses the legacy BT 3.0 protocol (alternatively, I resort to the USB dongle / receiver for the M720). For an all-new setup, this behavior is very far indeed from the "it just works" proposition and expectation in the Apple ecosystem. On Amazon and on other sites across the Web, users besides me do seem to be experiencing the same problem: The BT 4.0 connectivity is flaky and unreliable for accessories. I myself have resorted to using the USB receiver for the M720 mouse, given that Ive already paid for the blasted thing, but the whole point of buying the M720 instead of other, cheaper devices was to use BT and 1) enjoy the multi-device control and 2) avoid the dongle / receiver setup. Interestingly, the Logitech K380 keyboard, which seemingly employs the legacy BT 3.0 protocol, does not exhibit the same BT issues as the M720 mouse (though upon startup or wakeup, the keyboard is more laggy than expected or convenient). Ditto a legacy BT 3.0 Logitech mouse of mine. This suggests that the BT issues with reliability and operability are specific to BT LE / 4.0 / Smart. (Neither re-creating the relevant plist file nor disabling Handoff helps. The former is the "solution" from Logitech. The latter is a much-cited hack on the Web.) So, if you are committed to the Apple ecosystem, and BT connectivity with multi-device control is a key reason for considering this mouse, do be aware of your potential (certain?) disappointment. My reading across the Web suggests that I am not alone in encountering these issues and finding no elegant / proper solutions for proper BT behavior. If this community has found a solution... if Apple or Logitech release a fix... please do share. Otherwise: Apple buyers beware!

It sure was fun spending the first 17 minutes of every day this week trying to cajole this piece of glued-together garbage into working anything like the way it was intended to work. But it was far more satisfying pulverizing it into tiny bits that were barely even recognizable as plastic and PCB. Thankfully, this will be the last Logitech abortion to grace my desk. screw these guys. Every other time I turn my computer off, Logitech Options decides to delete my mouse, leading to an additional 15 minutes of trying to get the software working properly. When it does remember that Ive already installed it 47 times, it just ignores the multiple message that say "[Computer] Connected to Logitech Flow." Logitechs R&D and software development is hot garbage. Maybe someday theyll do something right. Im not holding my breath. This "Logitech Flow" BS works for a few minutes at a time. But if you ever decide to reboot any of your devices, or, heaven forbid, remove one from the room and return with it later, youll more than likely spend more time trying to fix this utter waste of code than you will using it. Also the scroll wheel left tilt is far too easy to activate when clicking the scroll wheel button. Id give it two stars if this joke of a company hadnt dangled a few minutes of interesting connectivity in my face.

I bought this mouse in order to hop between multiple devices, which works very well. Awesome feature that would easily make 5 stars. Not sure if the following issues are specific to the unit I received. This mouse is hardly usable. The mouse movement is extremely stuttered. This causes mis-clicks constantly. Often when I try to make a small, accurate adjustment to the pointers position, it wont even move at all. If it finally does move after trying repeatedly, it jumps an entire inch across the screen. Ive tried installing the software, changing batteries, connecting to different devices, connecting using the adapter instead of direct Bluetooth, and using the mouse on different surfaces. Nothing changes. My cheapo Tecknet mouse from a few years ago does not have any of these problems. As a result, Ive barely used this mouse in the few months Ive had it. I give it 1 star as I would only use it as a last resort. Id even use a touchpad over this.
