I use a logitech performance MX wireless mouse. I also use a K270 keyboard. They both connect to the same unifying receiver.
The only thing that doesnt work is the zoom button where your thumb rests. I havent looked into getting it to work in fairness. The 2 main buttons, the forward and backward buttons and the scroll wheel work just fine.

    Logitech B110. I've been looking for a Zowie for a while, though.

    I have a Logitech G502 and I'm not even a gamer. I just like to stay wired and have a responsive mouse alongside my Das Model S Professional "Silent" (Cherry MX Brown) mechanical keyboard. They are plugged into my Lenovo docking station for my laptop.

    Logitech G303 Mouse & Logitech G512 Carbon Tactile Keyboard.

    Logitech G502.

    • Adjust DPI on the fly
    • Switch scroll wheel between free spin and the more traditional scroll
    • 11 Programmable buttons (3 of those are the scroll wheel - left, right and click which i don't really count)
    • Change DPI on the fly
    • Adjustable weights
    • Onboard memory
    • You can turn off the RGB (Lights annoy me)
    • Has software in the Solus repository called "piper" to change mouse settings (Supports a lot of Logitech stuff)

    I'm happy with it. Only cost me like $70~ AUD on ebay with promotional code, which i think is a fair price. Most popular Australian retail outlets were trying to sell it for $109 AUD. I hate how expensive mouses have gotten. I previously had a Razer Naga (the original one) and it lasted what feels like 10 years but I really didn't want to spend $139 AUD on the new Razer Naga Trinity.

      Harvey I hate how expensive mouses have gotten.

      amen!

        Shocks me to see Logitech has the upper echelon of the market for you all. Had no clue.
        I have a bottom of the barrel K series Logi wireless mouse/key. Nothing fancy at all. Doesn't feel ergonomically wonderful. I have to bang the crumbs out of the keyboard every couple weeks. Does what $40 USD (for the combo) needs it to do. Nothing magical.

        If you are into the whole brick and mortar experience like I am, it's the monopoly mouse; the people's mouse I guess.
        That's a generational difference. In no brick and mortar store in the usa will you see the high-end logitech mice and keys you all refer to. Just the low end like mine. My experience anyway. Interesting thread.

        Still makes me wonder: where is their competition?

          brent Is this the kind of mouse you'll see in schools and offices?

              That is the question!

              Skimming through all the mouse manufacturers i can think of not many work in linux unless as i said u go for the driverless mice.
              For example Roccats linux drivers that used to be praised are now abandoned Razer linux drivers work but getting a newish mouse supported also seems hard.

              Which leaves Logitech that seems reasonably updated..

                  I use a "Talon-Blu" mouse, Ambidextrous, adjustable DPI up to 3000, nice Blue LED, quality wheel is forgiving of greasy fingers too...lol, and cost effective, under $50 USD.

                  Fatih19 schools, office, my house, your house, your mechanic's entrance, your church, your grandma...left click right click wheel and wireless. Basic mouse. I'm just saying I've never walked into a usa electronics store (I visit plenty) and seen what was in this great thread as far as high-end logitech stuff. Interesting that it's mostly one company. Don't get me wrong: a usb mouse and keyboard is primitive to me...

                    [deleted] interesting isn't it? I'd say by design but things morph too fast anymore. good research.

                      I use the Logitech MX Anywhere 2, I can truly recommend it. I wish it was a little bit more quiet on button click, but other than that this is the perfect mouse for me.
                      I'm also thinking about buying a Logitech keyboard. How could I set it up so that the mouse and the keyboard would use the same unifying receiver?

                      I use a 5 years old SteelSeries Sensei Raw that just wont die. It still works just as good as new and it’s even possible to configure using libratbag on Linux. A wonderful mouse and I can’t find any mouse that I like as much as that one.

                      On one of my other computers I use an even older Microsoft mouse. This one too just keeps on working and it looks and functions just as new.

                      [deleted] Kind of yeah. There’s also two tools called libratbag and piper. They together allow you to configure a lot of mice with a great user interface application...

                        I use a Cooler Master Ghost Storm Recon for same years now, it was a good purchase. I was influenced by a forum in Brazil, who have some experts on peripheral analysis, and my mouse had a 8/10 evaluation and was availabe on the brazilian market.
