The MX Revolution is a logical development, even if it fails a little different from the G7. So you can see the resolution of the mouse does not just switch like the G7 and the laser detection is significantly weaker than in the G7 (800 instead of 2000 dpi). In practice, however, does not notice the difference, whether. In games or applications The mouse glides like clockwork on almost all surfaces.
Probably the biggest advantage of the new top model is a perfect ergonomics. The mouse has been consistently optimized for right handed and nestles perfectly to the hand. In spite of (compared to G7) rather high weight, the Revolution can be pleasantly move easily over the surface. Through the so-called "Micro-Gear" technology, you can now use the mouse wheel in two functional levels. On the first, the mouse wheel behaves like any ordinary mouse also, albeit unequally accurate. In the second level, however, reveals the peculiarity of this mouse. The mouse wheel can be moved continuously by nudging. So that the navigation falls easy on long web pages and text documents. However, this convenience comes at a price. So the wheel falls off as a third button as the keystroke is already required for switching the two levels. For me, not a disadvantage, because I always never use these third button. By laterally moving the wheel can also be scrolled horizontally and by clicking on the search button can even be the favorite search engine start on the internet. Of course, there are also side buttons for the web pages and the present return. Yes Logitech has even a lateral wheel mounted (also documents, for example) can be changed with the between different applications.
Another plus in the account of the Logitech mouse is the gratifying long service life of the lithium-ion battery, which is significantly better compared to G7. A charging station for the mouse is of course attached. Is also very gratifying to note that only a mini USB flash drive must be attached to the computer for the wireless transmission between the mouse and PC. Unobtrusive and space-saving flat, just as it should be with a wireless mouse precisely.
Logitech proves the MX Revolution once again that they are the market leader in wireless laser mice. The ergonomics and design are excellent and the stepless Mausradtechnologie a real asset for any user. The slightly lower-dpi resolution and the "missing" third button are insignificant in my view in practice. Who wants to have the Ferrari of mice reaches for the MX Revolution. We recommend in any case, a high-quality mouse pad that is possible not greatly roughened, so you have even in the long term enjoyment of this mouse.
