Laser sensors: A controlling interest
Sensing the details
What does a mouse do? Fundamentally, it allows you to control your cursor. And the best measure of cursor control is the accuracy with which the mouse translates the movements you make with your hand.
How precise is your mouse? Logitech mice use advanced sensors to make sure that whether you’re clicking links, dragging text, or opening new apps—that whatever you’re doing—your computing experience is seamless.
We achieve precision by designing miniature sensors. These sensors take lots of little pictures of the surface below the mouse, interpret those pictures, and translate the movement your hand makes into movement on your screen.
Sensitive to your needs
Some people just need a mouse that works. Others need a mouse that can track on many surfaces. And gamers need a mouse that can give them game-changing precision at any hand speed.
Details, details
There are two kinds of sensors: optical and laser.
Mice with optical sensors track the surfaces beneath them using the available light and an LED lamp.
In 2004, Logitech introduced the first mouse with laser tracking. Laser sensors, compared to optical, produce far more illumination—both of the surface and of the contrast created by, literally, specs of dust on the surface—revealing a wealth of details even on glossy surfaces like highly polished wood. And that means your mouse can track motion precisely on many surfaces, without lags or jitter.
Gaming-grade control
If you’re an expert gamer, pixel-perfect tracking can mean the difference between victory and defeat. Our mice with gaming-grade laser sensors can track at speeds all the way up to 5000 dpi. So when the game is on the line, you’ll get maximum precision, blinding speed, and ultra-smooth tracking.

Track tested
We rigorously test all of our laser mice on a wide variety of surfaces to make sure your mouse is free of tracking flaws.
* Mice with Logitech® Darkfield Laser Technology cannot track on glass that is 4 mm thick or less, which is not much larger than the head of a pin.
Powering your mouse
The power of convenience
For you, having a wireless mouse is all about convenience. Any time you need new batteries it’s a hassle.
That’s why we’re hard at work figuring out ways to extend the battery life of every mouse we sell. And it’s why we make some mice that let you go more than a year without changing the batteries. Because we happen to think that fewer batteries are better for you. (And better for the planet, too.)
On and on and on
The longer your battery life, the less hassle you face. No lugging around batteries when you’re on the go. No wasting time and money on frequent changes.
Pick a mouse with batteries that last a year, 15 months, 18 months—or even three years—and you might just forget it runs on batteries at all.

Charge, not change
Don’t want to deal with changing batteries at all? We’ve got rechargeable mice, too. You just place your mouse in its recharging stand or plug in the USB cord when you’re done using it, and you’ll always be ready to go.

Bells and whistles
Mice that turn off automatically. Buttons that help you conserve battery life. Battery indicator-lights.
Many Logitech wireless mice are designed to help your batteries last longer. By automatically putting your mouse to sleep when you aren’t using it. By offering On/Off buttons that let you manually turn off your mouse. With battery indicator-lights that help prevent surprises—so you know you can count on your mouse when you need it most.
Some mice combine auto off, On/Off buttons, and battery indicator-lights.
