Pros + Cons

Con
 Stops working after a year

Users have had issues with various Logitech mice stopping working after about a year. If you are willing to buy a new mouse every year, then go with Logitech. Otherwise, shop elsewhere.
Comment

Con
 Lags occasionally

The Logitech M535 can lag during scrolling or become unresponsive for a little while due to connectivity issues.
Comment

Pro
 Scrolls content both vertically and horizontally

The mouse wheel can scroll the content both vertically and horizontally. If you need to scroll from left to right or vice versa, just tilt the scroll wheel sideways. This is very handy if you work with close-ups of documents, images, or web pages.
Comment

Pro
 There's an extra button for smooth window management

You can press the middle button to switch between applications and use it for gesture controls. For example, pressing it and moving the mouse down will minimize all open windows. You can read more about it here.
Comment

Pro
 It's designed for both right-handed and left-handed people

The shape of the mouse allows it to be used by both right and left-handed people.
Comment

 It works with virtually any device

You can use this mouse with almost any Bluetooth enabled device, with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, or Android.
Comment

Pro
 It's comfortable to use even for extended periods

This mouse is very convenient to use. The light weight (it uses only one battery) and the curved, ergonomic shape, along with the soft rubber edges make it comfortable to hold and move around.
Comment

 Poor performance on reflective surfaces

The laser sensor of the mouse works poorly on reflective surfaces, like glass or marble.

 Works well on all surfaces

This mouse works much better than most laser-sensor mice on glass, wood, and laminate surfaces, thanks to Microsoft's proprietary sensor technology called BlueTrack.
Comment

Con
 Right-handed only

This mouse is designed specifically for right-handed people. There is no left-handed version of the mouse.
Comment

Pro
 Scrolls content both vertically and horizontally

 Works on other devices besides Windows

Although this mouse is made by Microsoft primarily for Windows, it will also work on macOS, Linux, Android and ChromeOS, although with certain limitations. Most notably, the Start menu button does not work on non-Windows devices.
Comment

Pro
 Alleviates wrist strain

The shape of the mouse makes it very convenient to use even for hours on end. It provides very good support to the base of your palm, while the fingers can rest on the buttons without straining your wrist.
Comment

Con
 Has some connectivity issues

If you leave the mouse inactive for too long, it sometimes takes a pretty long time to reconnect.
Comment

Con
 Inconvenient placement of the Start menu button

The Windows Start menu button is located right where you rest your thumb, often causing accidental clicks. And there is no way to deactivate this button in the settings.
Comment

Pro
 Mouse buttons are remappable

The mouse buttons can be remapped which allows you to fully customize it to suit your needs but it does require you to download Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center software though.
Comment

Pro
 Long Battery live

Microsoft Sculpt Comfort uses 2 AA batteries which can last up to nine months
Comment

Con
 Sticky in warmer environments

The glossy plastic materials used on the mouse, can make it sticky when used in warmer climate.

Comment

 Great connectivity

The HP x4000b Bluetooth Mouse has an excellent Bluetooth connection that very rarely if ever fails. It reconnects to the computer in under a second after being left inactive.
Comment

Con
 Poor performance on reflective surfaces

The laser sensor of the mouse works poorly on reflective surfaces, like glass or marble.
Comment

Con
 Poor manuals

The manuals can be difficult to understand. They lack instructions for Linux users.
Comment

Pro
 Build Quality

Comment

Con
 No On/Off button

As a user mentioned: this can be a problem when the mouse is stored in your laptop bag and disables the touchpad of your laptop. The PC Magazine review however states: "the pairing button does double duty as the mouse’s power button.".
