5.0 out of 5 stars Great scrolling, lots of programmable buttons!
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2024
I was using an MX Vertical, and it stopped working properly (required extra clicks or automatically double-clicked). This happened after I updated to LogiOptions +, so it might have been the software. In general I really liked the MX Vertical, but this one is even better. It's still ergonomic and connects via bluetooth. It's shorter, so I don't have to move it off my keyboard tray to slide the tray under the desk. It has the same number of physical buttons, kind of. The top button only changes the scrolling action. I love the fast, smooth scrolling and ability to switch to slower if needed.

Being able to reprogram almost all the buttons, plus having a hidden gesture (and click) button under the thumb, is exhilarating. I can remap the buttons for individual programs, so that tilting the scroll wheel will redo and undo in Word, or move back and forth between browser tabs. Since the thumb button can be clicked or used as a gesture button in four directions, there are even more possibilities.

Small quibbles: I want to remap the quick-switch button that allows you to switch between devices, since I'm only using the mouse with one device. But this button can't be remapped. At least it's in the least convenient location for me. I also wish I could do "smart actions" for the gestures, but apparently not.

5.0 out of 5 stars Logitech quality at a great price
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2024
I've been a Logitech mouse fan forever and never had a bad experience. This M705 is a really nice mouse for the price. I bought this to use with my laptop tablet since I hate using the cursor pads that come with those devices. And since it's wireless, there are no hassles with wires and in this case no extra charger since it uses 2 AAA included batteries that are supposed to last a couple years or more before needing replacement. The mouse looks great and fits my hand perfectly and has a nice feel to it. The scroll wheel has two settings - free wheeling and a slower precise setting which is the one I prefer. The back and forward buttons are nicely positioned on either side of the mouse and quick to use. It wouldn't be a great gaming mouse like my Logitech G703, but for normal day-to-day use, I think it's great and you'd be happy with your purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best
Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2024
I've tried other names brands over the years, but always come back to LogiTech.

Logitech makes some of the best wireless mice. This recent purchase is my Third M705 mouse. The previous one lasted almost 10 years before it started acting a little quirky. It could have only needed a good cleaning, but for the price it is easier to get a new one.

I also recently bought a new computer, because my 9 year old Win 7 HP physically broke at the screen hinge. The well-designed Logitech M705 mouse lasted longer than my last two computers. LOL

I love the design and I'm so glad it hasn't changed over the years. The mouse is very comfortable to hold and the buttons and wheel feel like a normal part of my hand. The mouse also has (programmable) side buttons, which are thumb operated for Forward and Back for use in a browser. They can also be easily programmed for reverse operation (whichever seems more natural for the user). Or, they can be programmed for custom commands in programs, besides the standard Forward/Back in Web Browsers.

The description says the batteries last up to 3 years, and they literally do, with good quality (Duracell) AA batteries. The mouse also gives an on screen notification when the batteries finally get low.

The mouse uses a very small USB dongle (Receiver) to communicate between the mouse and computer. There is no need to Pair devices via Bluetooth. Simply plug in the USB Receiver and start using the mouse. It's truly Plug & Play.

It's fortunate that the receiver & mouse are Plug & Play, because the the printed instructions are all but useless. The are no visual diagrams. And the instructions are printed in multiple languages using micro-fine text that is almost illegible.

It's worth pointing out that the USB Receiver is hidden inside the battery compartment and is so small it is easily overlooked. It's a good design to prevent losing the receiver when using multiple computers, or taking from home to school/work. But it confused me at first, because I expected it to be a separate item in box, which I thought was missing.

Overall, I highly recommend this mouse. I've bought it before and I'll buy it again.

UPDATE: To MKay who is getting the 3 blank screens with images of multiple open programs. That is not a error with the Logitech mouse. On some versions of Logitech mice, there is a very small (almost unnoticeable) on the left side at the bottom. It is (by default setting) used to scroll through multiple open programs/windows when the taskbar is hidden. Microsoft Windows 11 (and probably earlier versions, too) has the feature of TaskView (a setting which can be turned off in Taskbar settings). The TaskView has a black & white icon on the Taskbar. It is a very annoying feature IMO! The small (programmable) button on the mouse is most likely activating the TaskView feature - which is exactly as the picture you provided. Don't get mad at LogiTech for an MS Windows feature. Simply turn off TaskView in Taskbar settings, or reprogram the button on the mouse to do something else - and Love your mouse again!

4.0 out of 5 stars Versatile and Reliable: Logitech M720 Triathlon Mouse with a Few Hiccups
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2024
I’ve been using the Logitech M720 Triathlon Multi-Device Wireless Mouse for nearly two years now, and overall, it's been a fantastic tool for my workflow. The mouse’s smooth performance and versatility are standout features. I love the ability to seamlessly switch between three different computers with just a click, which has been a game-changer for multitasking.

The option to use either the USB receiver or Bluetooth gives me flexibility depending on my setup. The battery life is impressive, lasting a good two years with regular use, which is a big plus.

However, there’s been a minor issue with Bluetooth connectivity. About a year into using it, I started experiencing frequent disconnections when switching between devices. While it hasn’t been a deal-breaker, it’s something to keep in mind if you rely heavily on Bluetooth connections.

Despite this, the Logitech M720 Triathlon remains a top choice for its functionality and versatility. It’s well-suited for those who work across multiple devices and need a reliable mouse that adapts to their needs. Highly recommended with a note on the occasional Bluetooth hiccup!
