So this week I got sick and tired of the little notebook Lenovo mouse I was supplied with when I received my work laptop.
I looked around on Logitech's website and was considering a Bluetooth mouse just for the pure reason of not having to play around with a dongle for connectivity. It took a while but I settled on a full size desktop mouse with a wireless dongle. Logitech only has two Bluetooth mice and both of them are notebook mice (meaning they're a little smaller for improved mobility) but since I don't have to move around all the time that didn't really help me.
The mouse I settled on was the
MX 620 pictured below. At home I use Logitech's MX Revolution, and just for comparison reasons lets say the MX Revolution is a Lamborghini (mmmm hot :P) this would make the MX 620 something like a nice sporty Mercedes (not the AMG or Black Edition, but something like the CLK). It's no Lambo, but it's still very good.
It has a nice ergonomic design, not quite as good as the MX has but much better than your average mouse. Has a great scroll wheel with a manual adjuster on the bottom of the mouse to change it from a click-to-click wheel to a
hyper-fast scrolling wheel. The mouse has laser tracking technology so you get a much better tracking system on more surfaces plus you don't get that annoying red light.
The mouse uses two AA batteries (provided) and has a battery lifespan of around 12 months (obviously according to Logitech) based on whatever test parameters they've used. I'll be happy to get 6 months to be honest. The mouse is listed at $129.95 RRP on Logitech's Australian site, Officeworks sells them at $89 and MSY sell them at $46. I went to Officeworks and got them to match and beat MSY's price, picking the mouse up for a little over $43 :)
It's a great mouse that's perfectly suitable for the office or for anyone who wants a nice ergonomic mouse for the home. Obviously I'd recommend the MX Revolution for the home but at around $99 it is twice the price of the MX 620.
Thanks
