Best Wireless Mouse? Logitech Performance MX Review

[@aslye]

Best deal on Amazon: geni.us/LogitechMX

[@Dbeast300]

"But its still light enough to be picked up easily with one hand" THANKGOD, my current mouse, made out of adamantium weighing about 70 pounds usually requires two hands to pick it up and movin my whole body to use.

[@tylerjohnson3728]

Dbeast300 lmfao 😂😂

[@Dhayre22]

Using this mouse from so many years, still working like new one.

[@aigletoucan1388]

Funny enough I bought that mouse back in 2014 and I still use it MANY HOUR everyday ! Worth the 100$ back then

[@emanuelsheng8655]

Is it compatiable with blue tooth?

[@artistjosephtubb]

Can you change the DPI on the fly? Can you program two of the buttons to allow you to do this?

[@aslye]

[@namatstudios]

Great video! Didn't know that the receiver can handle up to 6 compatible device. Also I like the lighting in your videos and I am about to buy a lighting kit for my videos. Which one would you recommend and do you use sunlight as well?

[@aslye]

STO Thanks! I use this CowboyStudio Triple Lighting Kit: amzn.com/B003WLY24O?tag=cempire-20 and yes I try to get as much natural sunlight when I can. This video was a mixture of sunlight and the 2 umbrella lights from the lighting kit.

[@namatstudios]

That is what I thought, thanks!

[@PaulBradfordTech]

Love this mouse! I use it everyday. I really like the ergonomic feel and the two programmable buttons that I can use in editing. Great review!

[@aslye]

Thanks! Yeah it's great for editing.

[@PaulHubertSOC]

I configure the buttons as COPY, Paste, SELECT ALL, Delete - for me, makes editing much faster. It is effectively a TEN button mouse when you configure the wheel left-right tilt AS keystrokes. Also the 'zoom' button. The lower thumb button I use as Command-C (Mac). I see the new MX is listed as a 7 button mouse - not quite up to my needs!

[@SEISMICNOISEDNB]

I bought it in combo with K800 keyboard. The keyboard was replaced but due to stupid accident. Anyway I bought it in some sale for $80 in 2014. now I still use old mouse from old set. worn out but still it is bestand most durable mouse I ever had. Im looking for replacement upgrade. I found somewhere that it was replaced by "mx master 2" but is it true?

[@stavrosnikolopoulos1871]

Dear Andy, i am using the Logitech Performance mouse MX the last three years. At times on the same mouse pad surface does not scroll easily, accurately. After cleaning (!!) the mouse pad surface it works better, but it is annoying not to scroll well all the time. Is there anything i can do to feel, work better with the movement, accuracy of this mouse? Thank you.

[@samurilip]

how does it make you wrist feel? is it slanted like the MX master?

[@uragon81]

got this now in a yard sale for 5 bucks. I absolutely love it. especially fast scroll and normal notched feature of it. Great mouse with good weight on it.

[@TodaysFreeApps]

Looks like a great mouse! Great video, Andy!

[@aslye]

TodaysFreeApps Thanks, Jonathan! It's great for KZbinrs so pick one up when you can.

[@alligatorgamer9137]

you probably wont see this because this video is 4 years old but i lost the little reciever that came with mine how/where could i buy a replacement and how would i pair it?

[@sabeelm9]

Do you know of any wired equivalent with a similar erganomic design?

[@tymesho]

Logitech mice have always been great on batteries. did you find this mouse too big? I use the small mouse, but would love the features here if it didn't feel too large. thanks!

[@moguman27]

I have this mouse but I've used it for so long. It recently started double-clicking

[@kreo45]

likely just needs a clean

[@oisinmcmanus5827]

you did another review on the logitech trackball m570 because of your frequent use of computers, which one would you say is better the performamce mx or the trackball?

[@aslye]

Performance MX is a better overall mouse. M570 is only better in terms of ergonomics.

[@oisinmcmanus5827]

in what way is the performance mx better than the m570?

[@CaraChartrand]

Wondering if you can answer a question for me. I have a rechargeable battery in the mouse and I charged it on Wednesday morning. By Friday morning, the battery indicator was red (I work 8 hours a day with the mouse). Is this normal because the mouse is old? Or should I try getting a new rechargeable battery?

[@hjoken]

It uses a standard AA rechargeable. Just try a different one and see.

[@monogramadikt5971]

hi there, ive got one of these that works just fine, i was using it with a laptop for learning a 3d program but would now like to use it with my mac and pair it up with a wireless keyboard with a number pad.. what i would love to know ? is, what would be the best wireless keyboard by logitech to pair up with this to use with my powermac ?

[@adorah1055]

"So you can creep on peoples tweets from 5 years ago" 😂😂😂 your hilarious, and your videos are so informative. I am definitely interested in purchasing this.

[@aslye]

adora h Tweet creeping. So much fun haha

[@jaironcm91]

Great video!! It is compatible with Mac products?

[@aslye]

Jairon Cora Yes

[@ivy-rustle]

Jairon Cora sub race

[@swashin]

Best mouse ever! The unofficial "KZbinr mouse" lol

[@aslye]

Let's all agree that it is now the OFFICIAL KZbinr mouse lol

[@user-ur5vn3qd9n]

It most certainly is!

[@djtyros]

Honest opinion here: I've had mine for nearly 2 years, and love it... its really comfortable and accurate. MY only two complaints are... The normal click button is starting to die; unintentional double presses , and sometimes have to click hard to get it to click. And, it's too easy to accidentally click the 'zoom' button when clicking left mouse button hard; frantic gaming moments. Also, the AA battery doesn't last very long

[@MrTit-ey8cx]

There is no way you are gaming with that mouse. Try an actual gaming mouse sometime

[@ivaylo.nikolov]

Do you think it's durable and MADE TO LAST ? I'm seriously contemplating on switching from my corded gaming mouse to this one.

[@aslye]

Ivaylo Nikolov I think so. It's pretty solid.

[@tmn15]

I've had this mouse (only one) for 10 years. No joke. Bought it back in 2010 for $60, now 10 years later, it's at $130. Crazy. I've been wanting to upgrade after all these years but still have not found one like this.

[@adrianramirez9686]

Is this mouse good for playing?

[@savagrplayz4364]

Can it be used on Bluetooth

[@marianpelmus]

it would be nice if the button for changing chanels was on the side, NOT under

[@Klepto84734]

I've had the same mouse for a few years now and it really is a great mouse. I have smaller hands than you seem to so I've never encountered the accidental right click issue but i seem to hold my mouse slightly lower so the weight of my fingers is never an issue. The weight of the mouse can be a bit daunting at first for smaller people or anyone that isn't used to pushing around a heavier mouse. But you quickly get used to it.

[@aslye]

blueboi05 Yeah the weight is something I noticed right off the bat. I like how it's slightly heavier than most mouses. Makes it feel more sturdy.

[@ardvark84]

I bought mine in 2016 and it's been doing great but recently it started double clicking, especially on you tube. I want to pause the video and it goes to full screen. I want to open a video on a different tab and I have 2 tabs opened with the same video. What is that? It's quite annoing.

[@bitcoin321]

Static, take out the batteries and click the heck out of it to discharge the static build up...... it will be fix the problem for awhile (but its rinse and repeat every so often )

[@kamasu4222]

is it good for gaming?

[@kidShibuya]

Except I am on my 4th one of these now, the left mouse click has failed on all of them after about 8 months. This was my go to mouse but not anymore, they just don't last.

[@6Ranger66]

Did you get he new MX Master mouse that you can do a review on?

[@aslye]

I don't have the MX Master yet

[@martinslater381]

I love mine and it still stays charged for ages even after many years so I recommended to a friend, unfortunately theirs started playing up after about a year / stops starts. Shame the receiver dosen't work with another similar mouse for troubleshooting, they seem to be dedicated to each mouse to avoid interference.

[@Svengalish0000]

Is there a good left handed mouse?

[@abvmoose87]

lovelle spice no, not for the wireless one. Logitech does have a wired one that is very similar to the mx performance in left handed layout.

[@BJSteigner]

Can the battery be taken out and replaced with an alkaline???

[@aslye]

I just use the rechargeable AA battery that comes with it, and I recharge it using the USB cable.

[@sairedits2382]

Is there a way to use it without the usb chip I lost mine

[@michaelgarrett6310]

Ive heard of people that go to a pretty popular big box store that rhymes with Bigfart thats got a lenient return policy. They just use the USB dongle that comes with the keyboard they bought, and return it with one of the gazillion other USB dongles that are lying around from old gadgets. Ya know.... if you're a rebel like that, its a little to unscrupulous and daring for some people's liking. I've even heard of people that show up with said dongle and return the item immediately as a relative who was coming into town for their birthday canceled, hence you no longer need the gift you bought them.

[@rishikeshsadanandan107]

Can you change the DPI?

[@cartersmith9773]

What charger do you use to charge it?

[@aslye]

USB cable connected to computer.

[@imanutnur7]

I bought a cheap Gear Head and while using FaceBook it has scrolls sideways.

[@markbedoya1450]

will this mouse work on the surface of a basketball?

[@NetvoTV]

How does this compare to g602 for video editing?

[@aslye]

NetvoTV Idk I haven't used the G602

[@Kurdishmusic92]

Really nice but too expensive for me!

[@stephenkenney729]

get it on line for 30 bucks

[@ps3pspgoandroid]

i know i'm late but i had to chage mine after 10 years of used.to me it was the and THE very best mouse i'v had since windows 95.just have to replace it of broken wheel shaft.I'm shure it will work well if i could change the wheel

[@erlendrostad1928]

I have this mouse but I can’t connect it to my ps4? Can anyone help me with tips?😅

[@TiagoRuivo]

How do you change de DPI?

[@user-ur5vn3qd9n]

Yup, definitely the best overall mouse right now! Definitely won't be getting anything else. Unless they make a second gen?

[@aslye]

For sure, thanks for your review that led me to get it in the first place! Has a next gen been confirmed? It seems overdue with this one being on the market for a few years now.

[@user-ur5vn3qd9n]

MyTechMethods No prob! And unfortunately, it doesn't look like there's any successor in the works yet.

[@aslye]

If it ain't broke don't fix it, I guess.

[@Dragonightess]

🔴I plan to get the MX master, but I got a question.🔴 if anyone can answer it feel free to, the question is, can the mouse buttons be modified to operate photoshop commands? it would seem a mouse like this could speed thing up if possible.

[@juanochoa3938]

+Seth Leblanc Commands like what?? not many people is related to the photoshop abilities

[@Dragonightess]

juan ochoa oh, well i have one now, and, yes it can. The mouse can be modified to do just about any damn thing you want. (Almost)

[@juanochoa3938]

i just bought one too and i realize i can customize the buttons or most of them to any application or game individually ,what is great. So i just wanted to know of you were still interested in an answer to your question :P

[@Dragonightess]

+juan ochoa oh well, thanks buddy! i love the mouse.

[@feels_bad-man]

Can you remove the battery?

[@aslye]

Yes

[@kryosan]

It does not have zoom+ zoom- and onesearch buttons, which I used as vol+ vol- and mute on my old MX600. So it suuuucks. Focus switch is so useless. Trying to find used MX610 or just it's guts /w receiver to implant in the corpse of my beloved MX600. There's no new mouse in the world right now which I would buy after I had MX600 for 8 years.

[@aberidius1824]

I've used this a few years, i can feel how it lags right now.

[@quackityalt7213]

bruh mines prolly the same amount of years as yours and it works fine in 2020, tf were you doing in 2015 brotha???

[@aberidius1824]

@@quackityalt7213 Don't know, I switched up to Logitech MX mouse instead and it has been flawless.

[@quackityalt7213]

@@aberidius1824 I'm trying to get to the MX master from my performance

[@shilks8773]

Not quite as good as the older MX1000 (My opinion). The MX Master 3 is now the Dogs Cojones of mice.

[@nerwin]

Hmm..this mouse or the Master. I like the fact the Performance has replaceable battery.

[@aslye]

I haven't used the Master yet

[@nerwin]

+Andy | MyTechMethods Its a tough decision. Amazon is currently selling the MX Master for $78 but it just bugs me that it has a non user replaceable battery and only 1 year warranty. But it does have bluetooth smart, so I can use it with my other devices too.

[@Caramelx27]

Cool , I've been looking for a mouse

[@aslye]

Definitely get this one if you can!

[@DarthVader-pc7ms]

By far the best gaming or overall mouse in my opinion is the Logitech G700, a pretty good looking mouse. 13 programmable buttons! Doesn't look as good as the MX but still worth checking out! :)

[@aslye]

David Justice Thanks for the recommendation, David!

[@DarthVader-pc7ms]

MyTechMethods Your very welcome you nerd! Us nerds have to stick together :D

[@dragonquestfan2002]

I bought this mouse used for $25 on amazon five years ago and still use it... talk about longevity

[@NaderLeeClub]

Thank you.

[@twisterrjl]

This mouse ruined my right wrist in 1 week. The battery life is FAR less durable as advertised. Personally I do Not recommend for gaming, hell even editing. I am going back to Razer mice. I have the Logitech M800 keyboard, and I can say, it's my favorite keyboard ever.

[@aristata]

I've been using this model for several years now and will stick with it. I listen to streaming audio on and off every day and am able to adjust volume and mute the audio signal from ~40' away. The only problem I've had is loss of settings during a few restarts. An easy fix is to delete the Setpoint program and reinstall from Logitech's web site.

[@333DFG]

I got one of these from pcworld uk, and the battery life is crap. I have to charge it up every day and drags. I hate it. Now I know why it was reduced. All the logitech mice I've had have been excellent but this one lets you down big time.

[@VladPandele]

1 month later: the MX Master has launched... WITH BLUETOOTH INCLUDED!

[@aslye]

Yeah I want it pretty badly lol

[@VladPandele]

+Andy | MyTechMethods Turns out ( some ) people have experienced connection problems... soooooo, it' s your decision :))

Actually, I've had this mouse for 6 months and I've never had problems with the right click. And i play cs go alot

[@MichaelNNguyen]

Should have waited man, the new Logitech MX Master just came out.

[@aslye]

Michael Nguyen Yeah that one looks awesome, but I'm pretty happy with this purchase since it's half the price of the Master.

This will for sure be my next mouse 👍😛

[@owen-ng8oe]

I have had this mouse for 1 year and it used to work perfect on the counter but now it does not at all. I would not recommend this to people who rage a lot because my brother rages on minecraft and I think that is what messed it up. The silver line on the left side also has worn to the point where the is a large spot that is just plastic.

[@mr_patfenis_9619]

[@ApeWatchingTV]

Too bad it's a right handed mouse. This makes it useless to me as I'm a proud lefthander. I'll stick to my customizable Razer Ouroboros despite its lacking battery.

[@aslye]

Left handed? Are you a wizard?

[@ApeWatchingTV]

MyTechMethods I'm possessed by the devil ;)

[@the-gn2zn]

All of these $40-$80 mice....bluetooth, wireless, etc....and my $10 corded mouse outperforms them all.

not even close.

it was a god mouse but after about a year the battery went out and now the mouse is a throw away im done with high dollar mice
