Logitech MX Anywhere 2S Wireless Mouse – Use on Any Surface, Hyper-Fast Scrolling, Rechargeable, Control up to 3 Apple Mac and Windows Computers and Laptops (Bluetooth or USB), Midnight Teal

Ive been a fan of Logitech mice and keyboards for a long time, and went through a couple of the older MX Anywhere model over the years before buying this MX 2S. I have always liked the MX line because I prefer a small, agile mouse, and find the forward / back side buttons to be so useful that any mouse without them just seems silly. This MX 2S feels like it glides smoother and tracks more precisely than than original MX. The rechargeable batter is also a nice change from the older model using regular batteries, though using it with the cord attached to charge is a little too reminiscent of the old days before wireless mice. Im not interested in any of the document transfer software, so I cant speak to that. Overall, I think this is a great mouse EXCEPT for one annoying flaw. The left and right button clicks are EXTREMELY LOUD. Side by side, the older MX makes a nice and fairly subtle click, while the MX 2S produces a comparatively loud, hollow, almost snapping sound. I had never considered my noise threshold for tolerable computer peripheral sounds, mouse clicks, keyboard strokes, etc., but the MX 2S definitely crosses a line for me where its too loud to ignore as it announces to the room your every mouse decision. Editing something that requires a lot of clicking and double clicking? Apologize in advance to anyone nearby because it gets annoying fast. If everything else about the mouse wasnt so perfect, Id have rated it lower and probably returned it. It really is a great mouse, and Im hoping it will either get a bit quieter as I break in the buttons more, or I just get used to the sound. Or I guess theres always loud music to drown it out.

Grabbed this mouse after seeing the Anywhere 2 on sale, and the old VX Nano was probably my favorite laptop mouse - decided to spend the extra couple bucks on the latest and greatest. Pros - Tracking - Havent tried on glass, but on multiple surfaces (wood, plastic, etc.) tracking is smooth. Size & weight - I know this is a matter of preference, but the size of the 2S is a good size for a laptop mouse, small but not painfully so, and a good weight in a small mouse. Smooth/clicky scroll wheel - user selectable scroll wheel for different applications. Multiple connection methods - havent used Bluetooth yet, I use the mouse across multiple laptops and Im not about to deal with pairing, but good to know I have the option. Cons - USB Receiver - Small enough that its tough to pull out of some USB ports. Also the VX Nano had a slot to store the receiver on the mouse itself. The Anywhere 2S has no such slot. Quality - While not exactly cheap, the 2S doesnt feel as top of the line as the VX Nano. Rubber pads on the sides seem to be a cheaper material, seam in the plastic on the back which isnt perfectly flush, etc. No carrying case

This mouse works well. Bluetooth pairing the Logitech MX Anywhere 2S mouse with computers running OSX 10.12.x or Windows 10 was quick and easy. The Logitech Flow functions work well, allowing me to seamlessly pass the mouse control between computers running OSX and Windows. This is a medium sized mouse that will not fill an adult palm. Its great for travel. Im happy with this purchase. Logitech Flow- 1. Requires both computers have the Logitech options (Flow) application installed 2. Requires both computers are connected to the same network *I do have security concerns regarding Logitech Flow. While the ability to copy/paste files from one computer to the other worked well during testing, I imagine the Flow application could be compromised by attackers operating on the same network.

Edit: Ive used this mouse for about 2 months now. Everything below is still accurate. The one negative I found is the darned on/off switch. Logitech could have done a better job designing it. ALL of my other Logitech devices (5 currently, and others that were upgraded as they wore out), including past Anywhere mice, have easy to use on/off switches. This one takes some effort and a fingernail to operate. Logitech, please redesign this. I knocked one star for this. Ive noticed that some of the reviewers have commented about this mouse feeling like it is cheaply made. Im holding my old Anywhere MX mouse and my new MX Anywhere 2S in each hand. The only difference I notice is the new mouse is lighter - since it doesnt have 2 AA batteries in it. The new 2S version has its own built-in battery. The clicks and button all feel about the same to me. As far as performance goes between the two mice, the 2S feels slightly more exact. I also prefer the new lower profile wireless dongle. It stays in my computer 24/7. The lower profile helps to keep me from bumping it on something or breaking it off. This is now my 3rd Anywhere mouse. I keep them for a number of years until the buttons wear out. When that happens, I upgrade. While I have no thoughts on the new "Flow" control and will likely never use it, this mouse seems every bit as good or better than my other two older versions - and no more carrying around a spare set of AA batteries!. Hope this helps...
