Compact Wireless Mouse for Everyday Use

The Logitech M172 is a lightweight optical mouse built for general computing across Windows, Mac, Chrome OS and Linux systems. It connects through a tiny USB receiver that stays plugged into a laptop or desktop without protruding far. The 1000 dpi sensor handles routine navigation, document editing and web browsing without requiring driver installation.

Practical Limits of the 2.4 GHz Link

The advanced 2.4 GHz wireless connection delivers a working area of about 10 square metres, which suits a typical desk but may not reach across a large room or through thick walls. Interference from other 2.4 GHz devices such as routers or headsets can reduce responsiveness in crowded radio environments. The single AA battery powers the mouse for about 12 months under normal use, so a spare cell is handy for uninterrupted work.

Build and Connector Implications Day to Day

At 97.7 by 61.5 by 35.2 millimetres and roughly 70.5 grams with the battery fitted, the mouse fits smaller hands and travels easily in a laptop bag. The micro receiver measures just 18.7 by 14.4 by 6.4 millimetres and weighs about 2 grams, allowing it to remain inserted during transport without risk of snapping. Three buttons and a scroll wheel cover the essential controls for office and home tasks.
