Logitech M705 Marathon Wireless Mouse Review and Manual Setup
Logitech M705 Software, Drivers, Review and Manual Setup – Logitech has always managed to steal the market’s attention with its superior products. They often offer high-quality accessories at very reasonable prices. Here is a review of one of their mouse, M705 Marathon Wireless.
M705 has a compact and ergonomic design, the same as other Logitech mice. It would be very comfortable to use this mouse. Slightly larger than MX Anywhere, comfortable to hold, gently on the rubber groove. The buttons are very pleased and can be reprogrammed for other uses.
One of the favorite features of this mouse is the scroll wheel. We can click the button to middle click, scroll up and down, and tilt left or right to scroll from side to side. In addition, there is a button to switch scroll mode just below, which means you can choose between the click-to-click scroll and hyper-fast scroll. The later mode is advantageous when you have to read lengthy documents.
Easy to Use and Comfortable
For the settings, this mouse is straightforward. After inserting the battery, you can plug the Logitech Unifying receiver into your computer and start using the wireless mouse. If you use multiple Logitech mice, you must install the Logitech Unifying software so that your computer can detect a new mouse.
M705 Marathon looks impressive. Having a suitable dpi is set at 1000 dpi, and this is more than enough for regular use. A slight disadvantage, this mouse does not have a superior Darkfield sensor, so it does not function very well on glass or transparent surfaces. However, advanced laser tracking still works well on slippery tables.
In addition to these impressive features, you will also be amazed by the battery life of the M705. The mouse uses 2 AA batteries, and according to Logitech, this battery will last up to 3 years. Certainly very unusual for a mouse that is only price at $ 49 only.
