Digital camera reviews of Logitech MX 518 High Performance Optical Gaming Mouse (Metal)

Digital camera Review: A gift for the husband
Summary: 5 Stars

Got this for the husband who plays World of Warcraft. He loves it. From what he said it works great.

Digital camera Review: A good replacement mouse for gamers
Summary: 3 Stars

Not the best mouse ever made for PC gamers but it does the job. Plug and play feature; I didn't bother installing the CD that came with the package (MS Windows Xp did the rest in installing the mouse). I had the Wolfking Trooper gaming mouse for two years and it recently quit on me - the left clicker broke (too much Modern Warfare and Battlefield games). I still have my doubts on how long will this mouse last. I picked this mouse because I'm on a budget and I would like to give it a shot. Hope for the best!

Digital camera Review: A great mouse for a great price!
Summary: 5 Stars

This mouse offers much for a gamer and at a relatively low price! While there's several more expensive ones out there with a few more bells and whistles if you're looking for a solid gaming mouse at a great price this is great option.

Digital camera Review: A great mouse for gaming
Summary: 4 Stars

The placement of the mouse 4 and 5 are comfortable and the adjustment to the mouse speed comes in handy when switching to a sniper in games. Only con is that the plastic material starts to shave off.

Digital camera Review: A great mouse!
Summary: 4 Stars

I had been looking for a new gaming mouse and I read thousands of reviews online. I LOVE Logitech products so I knew I wanted to stick with a Logitech mouse. I had it narrowed down to the MX518 and the G500. I chose the MX518 because it was on sale but I'm glad I did! I'm not disappointed at all. It is taking some getting used to because it is quite speedy. I have been fiddling around with the settings to find the best set-up for normal computer use and for use in games. I'm sure I'll find the perfect settings after playing around with them a little more.

The mouse comes with the Setpoint software which I highly recommend. The version shipped with the mouse is older so go to the Logitech web site and download the most recent version instead. Windows XP, Vista and 7 versions are all available in 32 and 64 bit. Setpoint lets you change dozens of features on the mouse so you can find the perfect combination.

I also like the way the mouse feels in my hand. After a few hours of gaming, the mouse is still comfortable. The black colored portion of the mouse is some sort of rubber with a nice feel to it. The rubber makes gripping the mouse very easy and it won't fly out of your hand if your hands are sweaty.

My only complaint is a very minor one. I'm not a huge fan of the silver portion of the mouse, strictly on an appearance basis. The silver part would have looked much better if it was smooth and didn't have that 'dented' look. I know it's VERY minor and a matter of personal taste so I was almost hesitant to mention it. I decided to mention it because it's the only reason I didn't give this mouse a 5 star rating.

Overall, it's a fantastic mouse. Once again, Logitech has created a winner in the field of gaming mice.
