Reviews last updated: May 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Logitech M720 Triathlon

  • Excellent multi-device pairing with support for up to three computers via Bluetooth or Unifying receiver
  • Outstanding battery life, typically lasting up to 24 months on a single AA battery
  • Highly comfortable ergonomic design with a soft-touch rubberized surface and integrated thumb rest
  • Versatile hyper-fast scroll wheel that can toggle between notched and free-spinning modes
  • Extensive customisation options through Logi Options+ software, including 4D scrolling and gesture support
  • Solid value for money, offering premium features at a lower price point than the MX Master series

What we don't like about Logitech M720 Triathlon

  • Unsuitable for competitive gaming due to high click latency and a low 125Hz polling rate
  • Fixed 1000 DPI sensitivity that cannot be adjusted on-the-fly
  • The rubber coating can disintegrate or feel 'greasy' over several years of heavy use
  • Scroll wheel may feel slightly wiggly or 'almost-too-fast' for some precise tasks
  • Only available in a single black/grey colour variant
  • Uses the older Unifying receiver rather than the newer, faster Logi Bolt technology

Verdict

The Logitech M720 Triathlon is a right-handed ergonomic wireless mouse featuring a 1000 DPI optical sensor and dual connectivity via Bluetooth or a 2.4 GHz Unifying receiver. Key characteristics include 8 programmable buttons, a dual-mode hyper-fast scroll wheel with tilt functionality, and Easy-Switch technology that allows seamless pairing and switching between three devices. Its primary pros are an exceptional 24-month battery life on a single AA battery, support for Logitech Flow for cross-computer control, and a comfortable sculpted design with a soft-touch rubber coating. On the downside, it has a relatively low 125Hz polling rate and high click latency unsuitable for competitive gaming, lacks USB-C recharging, and some users find its traditional clicks and scroll wheel sounds to be somewhat loud.
