Con: No middle (wheel push-down) click
Pro: Everything else in life, also... the "Con" has it's reasons and is "made up for" (just keep reading)
Sleek, beautiful design. Heavy, durable build... as expected from Logitech.
Geared towards the laptop user, but nonetheless a desktop replacement. The only reason I say it is made with the notebook user in mind is because the size is slightly smaller. If you have unusually large hands, you may want to refer to the VX revolution (but I did read the reviews on that one, and it seems there are many hardware malfunctions with it). Anyways, when all mice that I have seen are "made for laptops," they are like smaller than a stick of gum. The VX nano is a "smaller mouse," but it is more than adequate in comfortability and functionability. Actually, it is marvelous. Logitech simply applied the compact mentality in a realistic way.
The nano receiver is uncanny. And I didn't pick up on this from other posts but, THE RECEIVER FITS INTO THE MOUSE ITSELF WHERE THE BATTERIES GO. The VX comes with a really edgy looking pouch. Just pop the nano inside the little door under the mouse, zip up and go.
I got really used to using the middle click button on mice for tabbed internet browsing, so the wheel took some getting used to. BUT, there is a good reason that we can't click it. The scroll wheel changes "scrolling textures." The VX comes out of the box with the wheel set to glide very smooth with no friction. I, in particular don't care for the super smooth scroll. When I started to use it, I thought to myself, "ohh, it's one of 'those' kind of mice." (Disappointed face). Then as I realized the middle click didn't respond, my wheel suddenly gave me a rubbing feeling under my finger as I scrolled. By clicking in the wheel, the user can change the scroll response from that "tak-tak" feeling to a nothing at all "super glide."
In return, I set the "forward" button (the top one of the two tiny buttons left of the left click) to "middle click", since I don't use the "forward" button on my browser nearly as much as "back." You may want to set the little "document flip" button to "middle click" since it is right below the wheel, but I thought I'd keep the new feature and try it out for a little. ("Forward" was more sacrificable). Furthermore, my "tabbed browsing" hasn't changed and definitely wasn't hindered by the new design and concept.
Finally, the software.... talk about versatility. Every button can be programmed, and if what Logitech suggests isn't good enough, you can set any keystroke/combinations to any button.
You can set different scroll reactions to different programs. For instance, an application that is more sensitive to scrolling like Autocad or Photoshop for zooming, you can set the croll to be less responsive to those programs only, so that you can be more accurate in your movements.
Gamers! The mouse and it's software automatically recognizes when a computer goes into a full-screen game mode. You can disable what the mouse does while playing a game. For example, the "document flip" button will pop-up a window that lists opened windows. Well, the Logitech software enables you to prevent any such pop-up only while experiencing a game.
They really have thought of everything with this mouse.
A review is supposed to either keep people from making the mistake the writer did, or encourage the reader to enjoy what a value he/she found. This mouse is a gem, I hope you readers hop on this deal.

This mouse is simply great. I own a macbook pro and i don't think their is any mouse out their that is better suited for my computer then this one. The ergonomics are great, the hyper-scrolling is so much fun (sometimes i open up long documents just to scroll down them), The programable buttons are very nice but the best feature is the nano-receiver. It is so small i don't even notice that it is their. Truly is plug and forget. The mouse is a good size for my small/medium size male hands, and a perfect size for a notebook. If you have large male hands then you might want to buy another mouse simply because this one is a little small, but as i said it works great for my hands. Bottom line, THIS IS THE BEST MOUSE FOR NOTEBOOKS PERIOD. BUY IT YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This mouse works great with a Mac - the wobble wheel scrolls left and right, you never have unexpected left-clicks like with a Mighty Mouse (which uses a capacitive system to decide whether you want a left or right click, rather than having two buttons), and the extra button activates Spaces so you can activate both Spaces and Expose from the mouse (with the Mighty Mouse you have to choose one or the other). And the form factor is great for traveling. The only thing that could make this mouse better would be if it did Bluetooth so I didn't have to plug in a receiver into my Macbook Pro, but I can live with the VX receiver, which tucks handily and invisibly into one of the USB ports on my aluminum keyboard.

I'll make it short and sweet. This mouse is fluid and accurate.
The only thing I would change is the size/shape. It kind of gets lost in my hand.
I got it on sale as well...so the price was definitely right!

I first used one at a client's. I was so impressed with how it literally glides over any surface and fits snugly under my palm -- I went home and ordered one immediately. Still exploring the features, which are many, but I'm so content with just the basics. I'll never go back to any other brand of mouse!!!

This mouse is small, to start with. That being a good or bad thing depends on your needs. Overall good quality, nice scroll and buttons. Plug-and-play. But i dont think it sits firmly in my hand though.
Still, i'd buy it again

Needed a real mouse for my Macbook Pro, tried out 3 different brands before i ended up with the VX Nano.
I have to say I am really happy with this one, small and convenient, sturdy and never had any trouble with it whatsoever. Been using it for over a year now and it´s still going strong. Thank you Logitech for making good quality products.

Well, just on an introductory note, I used to have a desktop logitech mouse and keyboard set, a combination that was pretty good at the time (1-2) years ago). Unfortunately, though I absolutely loved that combination, both ate batteries without fail (almost every two weeks on NIMH and about a month on alkaline). This, coupled with the obstrusive and spyware-infected "control" software, made me think twice about getting a logitech mouse.
Now, I just bought a notebook, and needed a comfortable, portable mouse, one that wasn't a "miniature" model and with good battery life.
My father had bought the earlier version of the v220 mouse from logitech, a fantastic model, with zero drivers and still, a year later, zero problems. This emboldened me to re-look at Logitech, and lo and behold, I too set my sights on the v450. Reviews were excellent, but I had tried the MX Revolutions scroll wheel in the store, and it was fantastic, so why not I thought... Look at the VX Revolution. Again, excellent reviews. However it was $80, and the receiver was one of those that stick out about 2 inches from your USB port.
Hence, about three weeks ago I came across the VX Nano, for $40. It was too good to be true. This model fixes the "problems" of the other generation, in that it still has the free-spinning wheel (extremely fast), as well as a traditionally "clicking" .wheel (precise). I don't think it could have been any better. Then I realized it has thus required no additional drivers. I even recently installed the SetPoint Software (required for side-to-side scrolling, and additional button features - this mouse has great inclusion of both these). For once, it was not threatening and was not targeted as a virus-creator by my computer.
Other Positives
- Scroll Wheel Combination
- Build quality & materials
- ergonomic
- fantastic connection (hasn't dropped on me yet)
- tiny receiver, truly is "plug and forget"
- lots of extra buttons & quite accurate/sensitive
- battery life
- software is surprisingly not that bad to have (and good too, as it is necessary to FULLY experience the power of this mouse)
- good case...

I am extremely happy with this purchase, and could not have asked for anything better. I thank you Logitech for creating a sensible product that works for everyone and still includes features that anyone can benefit from. Seriously, this is a no-compromise mouse. And if you can find it for less than the MFR, buy it, as it stands in a class of its own.
Thank you.

Images for this Review
(click to see full-size image)
Just got it this morning and I was totally conquered by the design and usability. Plug in and forget nano receiver, five bottons that is almost as good as my MX™ Revolution, fit for both left handed and right handed, slim and portable (although fells a little bit small after using MX™ Revolution for a long time), and with a protective potch (which is great protecting your mouse from scratches !). Besides, it come with a desktop USB extension stand!
I've waited for 3 month to get a good deal of it. And I'll definately recommand this product to and friend that wants a laptop mouse!
The first picture shows what's the protective pouch and extension stand look like and the second shows where the nano-receiver goes into .

Dating back to Microsoft's first hardware product - a very good mouse - I have used only good (pricey) mice for 20 years now.
I feared that this mouse would feel too small in actual use, but it does not in my medium male hand. This mouse is responsive, accurate, and has a quality feel that is too often missing.
Simply the best I have ever used.

I have used computers since boot up was done with a floppy disk and WordPerfect ran off a floppy disk. I have used mice since they hit the market.
I have used Microsoft mice, Kensington mice, and a few others. You would think that a company as large as Microsoft would make some of the best products on the market, buy they don't.
There is a place in all mankind which I call the "stupid zone". I veer into that zone once in a while and I become stupid. I go into Best Buy or some other electronics store, leaving all sense of intelligence at the entrance door. I see a pretty mouse made by Microsoft and buy it. Within two to three months it stops working. I go back to the store and I buy another pretty mouse made by a big name company. (It takes me awhile sometimes to get out of the zone.)
I have had three Logitech mice since 1992. None of them broke down and they all worked as advertised. I have given two of these mice away when I step up to a new computer.
A year ago, or more, I donated a computer for a good cause and found myself miceless. I inteligently went in and after considerable thought purchased this mouse.
It is the best mouse I have ever used. I put the small receiver in and have not touched it since then. The mouse itself is flawless and other than replacing the batteries once in a while I have not had one problem with it. It comes with software so I can mess around with the settings. The software even indicates the life of the batteries. No more surprises.
My wife recently became so frustrated with her Kensington mouse she threw it across the room and uttered some words I haven't heard since I was in the Marine Corps. Her new mouse will be a logitech.
You cannot go wrong with this mouse. It is the best mouse I have ever used.

Hi,
Used many mouses, this is the very best for laptop or desktop.
1) Premium tracking, high resolution for detailed work, "a laser mouse"
2) Tiny transmitter, plug it in to a laptop and forget it, never gets caught on anything
3) Nice little bag for the mouse in my bag.
4) Fantastic scroll wheel, choose between free scrolling spinnable wheel and click, detent'd wheel. Great
5) Shape, no wierdness, perfect shape for my large hands, nice rubberized grips on left and right.
6) Not Bluetooth, since BT is a service on top of your operating system, it needs to be configured for each operating system, live disk, etc. BT is not worth the effort for a mouse, and the power overhead for BT isnt needed on a laptop.
Great Job on the VX Nano, you folks better still make this one if I lose mine. :)

I've owned this mouse for months and have no problem. The USB receiver plugs into the notebook and I haven't touched it since. Was a little unsure due to the very small size of the mouse, but you get used to it. I want to replace my desktop mouse with the same. In a perfect world, it'd have an auto shut-off feature to conserve battery life, but this isn't a perfect world and I'm more than happy with the product as-is.
