5 out of 5 stars Great mouse, but ANTOnline is awful   September 6, 2010
James
I really like this mouse. But if the only available vendor to fulfill the order is ANTOnline, I strongly recommend you purchase it elsewhere.

Once my order was placed, I was unable to track it. The mouse I ordered is supposed to arrive between July 16 and July 21. I sent an email on the 19th asking why I could not track the product and when I could expect the package. I received what was obviously a form letter with a cheesy diagram of the flow of a package they lifted from the UPS website.

Then several days later well after the due date I sent another email stating the package was now officially late, days past the later end of the promised delivery window.

The reply said they were sorry, blamed UPS and said they'd gladly file a claim on my behalf with UPS but it was too soon to do so.

Two days later the package arrived. USPS!!! Through the postal service. And worse, it was not boxed. It was wrapped in thick card stock, not even corrugated. WHen I opened it the Logitech packaging was crushed. The mouse was fine, but had it been a gift like the last one I bought for my gamer step-son it would have been completely unacceptable.

DO NOT ACCPET A PACKAGE FROM ANTOnline!!!

I also own the Logitech G5 wireless gaming mouse. And I must say both of these mice perform perfectly. They are sturdy and backed by Logitech customer service who have been very helpful.

This MX 518 is sturdy, has a good feel in your hand, and very smooth. Can't beat the value. Looking to try a bluetooth next.

just months after purchase, mine just stopped lighting up. I am going to try the Logitech warranty process.


5 out of 5 stars Good Mouse - Not just for gaming   September 1, 2010
Scott Moritz (Franklin, NC)
While this mouse is listed as a "Gaming Mouse" I did not select it for that reason. I know through experience that those type of mice typically offer additional button functionality and a design made for prolonged comfortable use as well as accuracy.

This mouse has all of those features. So while I do not use it for gaming, I do find it very convenient for every day tasks as well as accurate enough to use in Photoshop for image editing. I like the ease of use in assigning different tasks to the various buttons as well as their convenience of layout.

I highly recommend this mouse to "just anyone" not only those who spend hours shooting or dashing around in the virtual world.


5 out of 5 stars Mouse with Precision and Durability   August 15, 2010

I have had this mouse for about 2 years. When I read reviews there are very few that have long term experience with a product, so I had to comment on this one since I've had it for years. Having someone tell you a product is great when they've only had it for 2 weeks is not extremely helpful or comforting. I really want to know if what I'm about to buy will die in a few months or go the distance.

I'm not sure the one I own is the exact same model but it looks identical and has the same features as what's described. But since mine is over 2 yeras old they may have changed it slightly over the years. I just wanted to let users know that I have used this mouse constantly for years and it has held up great. I use this mouse with a laptop and also take it with me when I travel for business (travel 1 or 2 times a month). So this mouse takes quite a beating when I load it in & out of my laptop case each day and take it on trips. I have dropped it a zillion times, gotten it a little wet, and it's still going strong. I didn't think about it until I was shopping for a mouse for my daughter. When I saw this appear in the listing I realized how long I've had it. I do not baby this mouse at all. I suspect It has been used and abused way more than most mice.

It looks pretty cool (my customers often comment), feels great in the hand, and has unbelievable precision. I often do graphical work and even use it for gaming a bit so I was pleasantly surprised by it's performance and accuracy and can't live without it now (it has MUCH higher precision than a regualar mouse). I really like the plus/minus buttons near the wheel that let you adjust sensitivity on the fly with a click of those buttons. The side buttons are also very useful. Useful for forward/back on web surfing.

I am a heavy computer user so I splurged a bit on this mouse rather than using the cheap versions that often ship with new computers. I use my computer & mouse on average 6 to 12 hours a day even on weekends. I was so glad when optical mice came out since it requires no cleaning and accuracy never degrades - I hated the old ones with the ball that got dirty and eventually became unusable even with regular cleaning.

This mouse is NOT wireless. I need reliability and don't want to have to carry extra batteries with me while I travel. So I prefer wired mice. The USB cable on this is quite long so I haven't ever felt that it needed to be longer.

In summary, it's a mouse with excellent features and outstanding durability. I don't write many reviews, but this mouse has done me good for so long that I had to pass on the info. My daughter will also be getting this mosue - since I am the buyer :-)
