I bought this at a retailer for only $49.99. That price paired with the exceptional quality of the mouse makes for one of the best deals I've ever had. It comes with a wide array of little features that make computing easier and entertaining.
Pros: Ergonomics; looks great, feels even better! Optics are incredible (but it doesn't work on glass surfaces)
Cons: The free spinning high speed scroll; if you move the mouse quickly or jerk it, it might rotate ever so much, but this is something you probably won't notice unless the mouse is for gaming.

I've had this mouse since it's inception in 2007. In fact, up until 2 months ago, I never had a problem, and it has brilliant design and features. My problem was an intermittent double click when I clicked once- not too bad after 2 years- sent away under the 3 year warranty and just received a brand new one!!! Talk about service!
The only thing I'd ask for is more Mac OSX support- LCC is a bit rubbish, and leaves me using Steermouse instead.
Aside from that, the mouse is perfect for any use, including gaming, and feels great, battery lasts ages before a recharge, and the plethora of buttons makes it a wonderful mouse that increases my workflow efficiency! Love it! Best mouse I've owned.

Just picked this up the other day, I must say it's a very comfortable mouse. I was still skeptical about wireless mice since I'm a gamer, but Ive had no latency lag with this mouse so far. Only complaint I have with this mouse is that the buttons are very resistant to being pressed, this kind of bothered me. with caused me to give it a 4 instead of a 5. Overall I'm very happy about this mouse. I just bought this mouse for regular use when i'm not gaming~

This is the best wireless mouse I've used, period. I'm a software developer and use a mouse about 70 hours per week. The small design decisions set it apart. It's a little expensive but ultimately worth the price, for me.

Honestly, I usually don't like to spend time writing reviews but this mouse really exceeded my expectation. I would give it 10 stars for ergonomics if I could. I was a 2nd year student in Interior Design and had been constantly on the computer doing designs. My old mouse just gave me so much wrist pain that it affected how much time I can spend on the computer. I researched on the internet and decided to test drive this mouse. The cost is REALLY expensive at the time, it was around $120? I can't remember it was 5 years ago when I got this mouse. I have yet to suffer from wrist pain after this great investment. And I'm still using this mouse, no problem so far. I can't guarantee that your wrist pain will be gone since we're all different, but this mouse is really comfortable. Even now that I'm in the work force I still brought this mouse to work refusing to use the mouse provided by the office. I really recommend the MX Revolution mouse. It works with both my PC and Mac. But the software for Mac doesn't provide that many customization. This is the only drawback.

I've been using this mouse about 4 months at work 8+ hours a day 6 days a week. I love it. I use Excel all day and I love being able to scroll horizontally as well as use the thumb wheel to scroll through tabs in a workbook. Also the freewheel is so much faster than anything I have ever used before. Not to mention how comfortable and fast this mouse is.

Best mouse I have ever used and I have been using Macs since 1984! Very well made (if you don't get a defective one!), has made life much easier. I get much more done in less time, with less strain on my hand and wrist. Battery life is decent. Well worth the expensive if they keep the quality this high. I wish Apple made this mouse!

I've had my MX Rev for nigh on 3 years now and it rarely ever lets me down.
First off, the design of it is pretty well done. The large, weighty feeling in the middle of the palm feels natural and comfortable. The thumb indentation is a little too deep, but it still provides a great resting spot for your thumb. However, the placement of the document flip scroll wheel is in the way a little bit. I find myself frustrated occasionally when I accidentally flip out of my game because I touched that wheel.
Which brings me to another good point. The Setpoint software does a great job of providing micro-management of mouse buttons for various applications.
I've read a bunch of reviews on here about the battery level dropping and the charging connections being too sensitive, but that's a bunch of bull. The mouse slides effortlessly onto the charging dock and I've even found that if I don't place it perfectly into the dock, it will still charge with no problems. And as for battery level dropping? C'mon, everyone knows that battery levels degrade over time. After 3 years, my battery still lasts me a full 7-8 days on a full charge. Of course, it used to last 2 weeks, but like I said.... battery levels DO drop.
And lastly, I have nothing but praise for this mouse because I got it for free from work. Great mouse, big price, but for free? I'll do nothing but sing songs about it, you be'cho'but!

I have utilized this mouse for over 6 months now......enjoying all the attributes. Many of us that work together coincidently all have the same mouse. Overall the product is sound. The "but" comes in that many of us are now experiencing a similar failure with the device. The left mouse button, single click, isn't always single. The single click results in double, triple, at times many more causing the result of the initial action to just cause a mess. Interesting that 4 of us all now are experiencing the same problem. So do I purchase another expecting a failure such as this, or do I move to something else. If not for this problem, I have nothing bad to say about the product. Nice job.................but!

Being a hardcore gamer I need my mouse to function perfectly. This mouse is accurate and fast, perfect for CS:S. I don't know what the software other reviewers installed is, all you have to do is plug it in. As far as battery life I charge it about once a week. My only complaint is that after a few weeks the wheel no longer spins endlessly.

The mouse scores well for any criteria I can think of.
Left and right click are smooth and effortless and are not prone to accidental clicking.
The scroll wheel works well in both modes as well as switching in between the two. Though I rarely took advantage of the side-scrolling feature, it works well and will not be activated accidentally.
The forward and back buttons on the mouse have long ago replaced the forward and back buttons on my browser.
The application browser (side wheel) is a nifty tool, though it never did replace the ingrained instinct to go for the taskbar. There was never any issue with pressing it accidentally.
The search button is a luxury. I set it to Google and it was very convenient. I later found a way to get it to search Wikipedia and have been ecstatic ever since. Similarly, no issues with pressing it accidentally. (Also good for upping that button count, which proves that your mouse is better than those of your peers)
Very comfortable. Almost my entire hand can rest on the mouse (and I have comparatively large hands). The thumb-rest is plenty large and has never bothered my thumb in the slightest.
Design is elegant, though you can make aesthetic judgments from any number of pictures on this site and elsewhere online.
The battery is in for the long haul. Lasts upwards of a week, left on the entire time.
Battery indicator is low-profile, dims while the mouse is inactive and is easily visible while the mouse is in use. Turns red when battery is low, but will continue to function for hours afterward.
The stand is solid and does not tip or topple in any way. The mouse is secure in the stand. The mouse charges quickly (matter of an hour or so)
Surface detection is exceptional. Works without a hitch for both picture editing and gaming without a mousepad on an old desk. (also: my hand, my leg, countertops, books etc.)
Wireless works from further away than it will ever need to (my basement to the outside of the house).
Durable - has lasted two and a half years of daily use, often several hours. Recently the micro-controller for the left-click has been worn down, but it's still under warranty!
My advice? If you can afford it, get it. It's an investment. You'll never need another mouse. (I'll never need another mouse)

The MX Revolution is a wonderfully designed mouse from an ergonomic and feature point of view. The software to program the multitude of buttons is straightforward, and other than not being compatible with a Belkin SOHO switch, it works very well.
The downside of this mouse is the pointer accuracy. I tried multiple mousepads and surfaces and did not find a single background surface that gave me accurate response. With MMORPG gaming, the mouse was completely frustrating because of the inability to keep pace with my movements. The pointer would hang up, stop working all together, and drag for gaming and all other applications.
Sadly, I would not recommend this mouse to anyone. I loved the ergonomics and the software interface, but the fact that the laser tracking device was poor at best ultimately led to my throwing out the MX Revolution. If Logitech could fix this aspect of the mouse, they would have a near perfect device.

This COULD be a great mouse, but the charging/re-charging feature is the worst I have seen. I have owned 2 (thinking the charging on the first one was slightly defective), but I was wrong...The second one has given me the same issues of charging then not charging and never ever really charging...THAT'S A MOUTH FULL! Basically, over a long period of time and determination you can get the mouse to set correctly and get it charged, but not worth the hassel in my opinion. Curious why it wouldn't be easier to charge through the USB to mini-USB like blackberry or blutooth headsets...

Even with the receiver right next to this mouse it will jump all over trying to move in a straight line is impossible if you have the software installed. Uninstall it and the mouse works like a dream, excluding the scroll wheel. That part only works if you install the driver. This was one of the purchases that I made that made my loyalty to logic falter.

I would love this mouse if it were not for the fact that each charging as resulted in shorter periods between chargings. When I first bought it the charge lasted for 17 days. I'm now down to 10 days and have only had the mouse a few days. Also, the features are fickled about when they choose to work. Sometimes the back button works and sometimes it doesn't. It has nothing to with whether or not there was a previous page because using the back button on the browser always works. It's just the button on the mouse that can't decide whether or not it wants to work. The same is true for the scroll wheel. It works when it wants to and not necessarily when I want it to. My main complaint about this mouse is that I have to sit and wait for it to charge watching to make sure that I don't leave it on the charger any longer than necessary to complete the charge. If I don't and it stays in the charger a little longer than necessary for a full charge, the number of days the charge is will last shrinks - so far from 17 days to 10 days. I'd rather have a mouse that used replaceable batteries.

I work at office max and we sold this mouse so when i needed a new mouse i went looking for two features a tilt wheel for my photo editing(was getting frustrated with little bars at the bottom of the screen.) and something i wouldn't have to replace stupid batteries. Well this one always interested me me and i wanted something nice for my games so i bought it of e-bay. well the e-bay one was defective and Logitech replaced it free of charge even though they could have turned me down off the warranty policies i was so pleased! It took a few days to get used to but now i feel like i can't live without it, I have the VX revolution and i don't like using it because the MX revolution makes the VX feel like junk.(its also a good mouse just not as good). Its a little heavy because of the battery but i don't mind. I like the controll you get in setpoint. I love it for gaming, my digital photo editing, and browsing the web, i will use it as a remote when watching movies or music as well with the flipswitch set to media its a wonderful remote. I also love the one touch search, i use it so much, i find myself using it as spell check just highlight and click, its faster then trying to use some spell checkers, which is sad in many ways. my biggest complaints are:
A: setpoint forgets program specific buttons, i have found that after about 5 programs it will forget one to make room for another but i haven't updated my soft wear for a while so that might help.
B: the mouse will just stop moving for a half second never been a problem even in my gaming just annoying
C: The charger contacs get dirty and have to be cleaned, this may be because my little brothers are slobs and get food all over my desk.
D: when the hyper scroll is set to smooth scrolling it still uses a lines system and not a true smooth scrolling.
E: that you can't set macros to the extra buttons. Would have been very useful when programming or playing games.
I have loved this mouse and would buy it again without a second though i liked it so much that i bought the VX Revolution for my laptop. although i do wish it also had the zoom switch that the VX has but i don't know that they could pack much more into this mouse.
