Logitech Wireless Mouse Marathon M705 lets you power on… and on. It uses far less power than comparable wireless mice from other companies, so you’ll go up to three full years between battery changes.* And it uses a tiny wireless receiver that stays plugged in to your computer, so your mouse is ready to go-whenever, wherever, and for as long as it takes. Plus, hyper-fast scrolling means you’ll fly through long documents to find what you need in a flash. Advanced Optical Tracking means you’ll get smooth, responsive cursor control. And the sculpted, right-hand shape means you’ll be as comfortable finishing up as you were getting started.
Click more. Scroll more. Do more. Logitech Marathon Mouse M705 uses far less power than comparable wireless mice from other companies. That means you can go up to three full years between battery changes.*
Hyper-fast scrolling lets you fly through long documents and Web pages with a single spin of a nearly frictionless metal scroll wheel.
The sculpted, right-hand shape guides your hand to a naturally comfortable position and places customizable control within your reach. Two thumb buttons lets you move quickly between Web pages.**
The tiny Logitech Unifying receiver stays in your laptop. There’s no need to unplug it when you move around, so there’s less worry of it being broken or lost. And you can easily add compatible wireless mice and keyboards to the same wireless receiver.
Laser grade tracking delivers smooth, responsive, precise cursor control on surfaces that cause problems for standard optical mice, such as polished or wood-grain tables.***

One of the Best
I’ve tried other names brands over the years, but always come back to LogiTech.Logitech makes some of the best wireless mice. This recent purchase is my Third M705 mouse. The previous one lasted almost 10 years before it started acting a little quirky. It could have only needed a good cleaning, but for the price it is easier to get a new one.I also recently bought a new computer, because my 9 year old Win 7 HP physically broke at the screen hinge. The well-designed Logitech M705 mouse lasted longer than my last two computers. LOLI love the design and I’m so glad it hasn’t changed over the years. The mouse is very comfortable to hold and the buttons and wheel feel like a normal part of my hand. The mouse also has (programmable) side buttons, which are thumb operated for Forward and Back for use in a browser. They can also be easily programmed for reverse operation (whichever seems more natural for the user). Or, they can be programmed for custom commands in programs, besides the standard Forward/Back in Web Browsers.The description says the batteries last up to 3 years, and they literally do, with good quality (Duracell) AA batteries. The mouse also gives an on screen notification when the batteries finally get low.The mouse uses a very small USB dongle (Receiver) to communicate between the mouse and computer. There is no need to Pair devices via Bluetooth. Simply plug in the USB Receiver and start using the mouse. It’s truly Plug & Play.It’s fortunate that the receiver & mouse are Plug & Play, because the the printed instructions are all but useless. The are no visual diagrams. And the instructions are printed in multiple languages using micro-fine text that is almost illegible.It’s worth pointing out that the USB Receiver is hidden inside the battery compartment and is so small it is easily overlooked. It’s a good design to prevent losing the receiver when using multiple computers, or taking from home to school/work. But it confused me at first, because I expected it to be a separate item in box, which I thought was missing.Overall, I highly recommend this mouse. I’ve bought it before and I’ll buy it again.UPDATE: To MKay who is getting the 3 blank screens with images of multiple open programs. That is not a error with the Logitech mouse. On some versions of Logitech mice, there is a very small (almost unnoticeable) on the left side at the bottom. It is (by default setting) used to scroll through multiple open programs/windows when the taskbar is hidden. Microsoft Windows 11 (and probably earlier versions, too) has the feature of TaskView (a setting which can be turned off in Taskbar settings). The TaskView has a black & white icon on the Taskbar. It is a very annoying feature IMO! The small (programmable) button on the mouse is most likely activating the TaskView feature – which is exactly as the picture you provided. Don’t get mad at LogiTech for an MS Windows feature. Simply turn off TaskView in Taskbar settings, or reprogram the button on the mouse to do something else – and Love your mouse again!

comfortable, all-surface use, multi device
Logitech just works so well with my Apple stuff. It works on my desk without stutter so i don’t need a mousepad. It has one-button switching so i can mouse my Imac, then my mac book, then my wife’s mac without forgetting and repairing device nonsense. Good shape for my biggish hand, and fully configurable wheel, buttons, for configuring quick actions, like show desktop, or show all windows, or app-specific actions etc. Smooth movements, easy to set speed or cursor, just good engineering. After a keyboard, its the most important part of the interface with my machines, and like this one, it should be made for human hands, not esoteric interior designers. Why Apple fools around with their Magic Mouse boggles the mind. Who has a flat hand like a flipper?

Excellent USB mouse without software
This is an excellent, ergonomic USB connection mouse that importantly does not require any software or license to download. You can also install some attached software if you want, but I never did and it works perfectly. A tiny, inconspicuos USB C connector chip arrives inside the mouse. You open it, like you would to access the battery, pull out the USB chip, and slot it into your computer just like a normal tethered mouse. It works perfectly then, accurate and fast moving on the screen. I use it for gaming and it works greatm I’ve used mine for months and it hasn’t run out if battery life yet. I just bought a few cheap replacement batteries for when it eventually does – its much better than having a mouse tether coiled up in everything for no reason. You can also easily switch ot off woth a tiny sliding switcg on the bottom. Excellent product

For the price, it’s a very good wireless mouse. But it’s not my MX Anywhere.
I have two first generation MX Anywhere Mice that have countless hours and probably thousands of “miles” on each of them. Didn’t know what they were about until I’d owned the first one for a few months, which eventually led to my buying a second one. That second one was “refurbished” because it was purchased some time later (from Amazon), as by then the second generation had been released and I simply liked my first gen so much I wanted another. So why did I buy the M705 Marathon Mouse? Well, the MX I’ve used the most over the years turned out to be the refurbished one. Why? Luck of the draw? Don’t really know, but because of the constant, daily use it began giving me problems with double clicking on the left button and occasionally on the right button. That’s a lot of use! I looked at buying the latest MX Anywhere mouse, but didn’t like the prices and couldn’t be sure if they were as well made as my originals. So, I ordered the Marathon, which appeared to be a less expensive version of the MX. Well, unfortunately it’s not. Compared to most other mice, the Marathon is fine; typical good Logitech ergonomics, tracking and getting the job done. But, park it next to my MXs and use them one after the other and you “feel” the difference. As old as my MXs are, they still feel more precise, tighter and more responsive than the Marathon. They also are a better fit for my hand; the Marathon is a larger mouse which for where I use it means it doesn’t “fit” my work area as well. Also, Logitech claims you can “customize” the Marathon using their software, but it was a lot of work to actually find “that” software for the Marathon and once I did it simply did not work as well as the software/MX Anywhere combo I’ve used for so long. What the Marathon has going for it is it’s price, it’s still an RF (radio frequency) and not a Bluetooth mouse (I hate Bluetooth mice, totally different response curve), and it is “Logitech.” So what does all of this mean? Well, I put the Marathon to work (yeah, no more unwanted double clicking!) and parked the refurbished MX. I then checked on Mouser Electronics, found the correct replacement switches for my MX ($0.80 each), ordered them, and upon arrival I replaced the old switches. It was an easy swap on the little MX circuit board (it did require some extensive tear-down), with the result of: My old MX is back in service! And what’s to become of my Marathon? Well, it’s a good mouse, so it has a new home out in my shop, as it replaced my Logitech wireless mouse for my Dell laptop I use out there. By the way, that Logitech is from the late 1990’s (Win 98/Win XP period)! And I don’t think that one will ever wear out!

When I received this mouse, I was not really sure if I should keep it for my daily office work. I am glad I did. The mouse is a tad heavy, which works well on a mouse mat and glides effortlessly.This is a battery operated mouse and after using it for three weeks it still shows 100%, not many of my rechargeable mice have done this. Connects to three Bluetooth sources and one on the dongle, plenty for working in the office.I have big hands and I needed to take time to get used to this mouse. I think after about three days I was very happy to find the mouse beside my keyboard and since it has become a good buddy of my setup. Not only that, but I do game quite a bit and for games where I use a mouse it is more than adequate.I know it is a Logitech mouse and their options+ software really is annoying, but it keeps the firmware up to date. The scroll wheel is precise, but in free flow it does need some changing parameters here and there in Windows.Great mouse, hope to be able to enjoy it for a long time.

The 2 buttons where your thumb goes are seem to have a mind of their own.The right click is way to sensitive and goes off when you think about it.So all in all I thought it was a terrible mouse.

I’ve been using the Logitech M720 Triathlon Multi-Device Wireless Mouse for years, and it’s by far the best mouse I’ve ever had! Its ability to seamlessly switch between multiple devices is incredibly convenient.The ergonomic design is comfortable for long hours of use, and the battery life is exceptional—lasting for months on a single charge. The precision and responsiveness are top-notch, making it perfect for both work and play. If you’re looking for a versatile and reliable mouse, this one is a standout choice!
