Logi M196 is better than other mouses? (NOT READBAIT)
This is the best mouse ever because even though it’s not silent it gets the job done well. It really works great with Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+, and Galaxy A51 5G. And also the mouse fits really well in the hand so if you want a good mouse, get this one or the M650. The design is really good with the little scroll wheel and the plastic frame. It’s been about 2 months since it arrived on March 20, 2025 and it’s still at 100% battery, so the battery life is really good too. Easy to use. Bye!

Very Satisfied
Wanted a bluetooth mouse. And saw Logitech had many inexpensive bluetooth options. Decided to go with the M196 as it has an auto cut off feature if left alone for a while, which saves the battery, plus its a decent size and fits in your palm comfortably.Connected easily to my laptop, with no extra dongle clogging up my usb ports. I would urge any one to switch from wireless to bluetooth. Came in a poly mailer lined with bubble wrap, product box came a lil dinged up but I expected that, as all unboxing videos show everyone’s item came like that. Item itself was brand new, no damages, and passed the new gadget smell test, lol.Came with a AA battery pre-installed. Build quality/design does not feel cheap to me, as I am used to Apple’s magic mouse. I got the grey so the colour will not appear dirty over time. And there are light segments with the scroller.See pics(Purchased from Slam-Dunk)

Surprise! It isn’t a carpet. It’s a mouse!
Do you have a computer? Do you require the ability to click on things? Would you enjoy a device designed to click on things on your computer? THIS IS A MOUSE! It clicks – even on things – and tells your computer what to do with real big kid pants on! Ultimate authority. It clicks on what you click on with it, and it clicks audibly. A little slow even with the slider maxed out in Windows settings, but it moves when your hand moves it and it will click as you require it to click – again, audibly – so that you are aware that your clicking is happening beneath your mighty palms! Additionally, the wheel will turn, and as it does so, things will move. They can move up and they can move down. But the wheel moves them. The wheel is everything. All revolves around the wheel.

Nice, basic mouse
Great basic, no-frills mouse that gets the job done. The really likable aspect of this particular mouse is that it connects directly to the device’s bluetooth (including iPad!) without the need of yet another USB dongle plugged into the device. That is a huge plus, as my Asus laptop only has one type-A USB port (this is the common rectangular USB port). I used to have to unplug my old mouse bluetooth dongle in order to plug in a legacy USB-A device, but with this mouse that port is left available. The only down side I have found to this mouse is that it doesn’t seem to track as well as my previous mouse on the surface of a ‘pleather’ couch cushion. Seems to track fine on a solid surface though.

Perfect Everyday Mouse for MacBook Air Users – Smooth, Precise, and Affordable
I use a MacBook Air and needed a reliable, affordable wireless mouse for daily tasks—and the Logitech M196 absolutely delivers. It’s compact, responsive, and pairs seamlessly via Bluetooth without any setup hassle. I regularly work in Rhino and use Google Earth for dimensioning, and this mouse handles both with smooth, accurate tracking. The size makes it super portable, and the 12-month battery life is a huge bonus. Highly recommend for students, designers, or anyone who needs a no-fuss mouse that just works.

Fantastic Mouse
My work laptop only has 2 USB ports and I need both for my keyboard and headset. So, this comes in handy. No lag, or any other issues. It’s perfect!

The Logitech M196 Bluetooth Wireless Mouse is designed for portability and functionality, making it ideal for laptops, tablets, and desktops. With its compact size, smooth tracking, and 12-month battery life, this mouse is a convenient accessory for users on the go.

The Bluetooth connectivity was stable across multiple devices, and the mouse paired quickly with both Windows and macOS systems. The smooth tracking was consistent on most surfaces, though it struggled slightly on glossy or reflective ones.

This mouse paired easily, and works fine, Great addition for my Chromebook.
Really like it! –
The connection with my MacBook was easy. As it says in the description doesn’t need a dongle or any usb device. The only things that I didn’t like is the mouse is not silent. But for the price is pretty good.

It works wonderfully. It is a full-size mouse.So I had to order a palm sized mouse to fit with my 9 inch tablet, keyboard and case. Easier to pack.
