Logitech MX Duo - Cordless Keyboard + Mouse

[Matt174e]

I'm getting this soon b/c I've seen a lot of good reviews about it.

I want to know If anyone has this and what they think.

So far I had no problems with any logitech products I bought, there a great companie who puts a lot of thought into their work.

I got that exact same thing and its awsome. The mouse will take a little while to get used too because its a little heavy but once you get it, youll love it. The one draw back that Ive found so far is the battery is rechargeable and will start blinking on you in the middle of the game needing to be recharged. That might not sound bad but the light is really bright and will annoy you after a while and is really hard to ignore. Ive found that the mouse will still work for atleast an hour and a half after the light first comes on.

To sum it up, I highly recommend it and while iIm recommending, Ill recommend the Logitech Cordless Freedom 2.4 Joystick. Its really good too.

I stick to cords, I don't mind them, but I will say if its going to be keyboard and mouse, then logitech is your answer, they make great stuff.

i have the corded version of that mouse, i prefer corded due to the earlier post about the battery issue. anywhoo works great with my x-trac optical mouse pad.

I have the MX cordless duo and its great. The mouse is a little heavier at first but you get used to it quickly. Also, the mouse gives you a couple extra buttons (5 total) which are useful in BF.

I have not had the problem with the battery light. But the most I use my home computer in one stretch is 3-5 hours. It was a great purchase for me.

I just orderd that joystick! Everything I get is going to be logitech from now on, I have the 2.4ghz gamepad It dosn't feel cordless at all! It's got not latency what so ever.

And I have a few questions about the keyboards batteries:
How long did you have it for? How many times did you have to replace the batteries? and, what batteries does it take?

And for the mouse:
How long does it last overall, does it need to be dead before you can recharge it (most rechargable batteries need to be dead because recharging early would shorten the lifespan)

Ive had the Duo for 2 to 3 months and have never had to replace the batteries in the keyboard. It takes 2 AA batteries so its nothing hard about getting the right batteries.

Its been my experience that the mouse battery will last 36 to 48 hours of hard use, most likely alot longer for someone who doesnt use the puter as much as I do. I dont remember reading that the battery on the mouse needs to be completely dead before recharging as usually there is a warning in the manual if that is the case. It only takes 3 hours of charging to get a full charge.

The joystick Ive had for more than a month and have only replaced the batteries once and that was just a couple days ago. It takes 3 AA batteries.

Well I hope that helps and I think you made a good choice.

I did not get the combo because the mouse is not the dual optical version. I got it seperate
