Verdict

The Logitech Signature M650 is a wireless productivity mouse featuring a 400–4000 DPI optical sensor and SilentTouch technology that reduces click noise by 90%. It is uniquely available in three configurations—regular, large (M650 L), and a dedicated left-handed version—and includes a SmartWheel for automatic switching between line-by-line and high-speed scrolling. Main pros include its remarkable 24-month battery life from a single AA battery, dual connectivity via Bluetooth Low Energy or the Logi Bolt USB receiver, and five customizable buttons. Notable cons include its inability to pair with multiple devices simultaneously, a lack of rechargeable power, and a fixed 125Hz polling rate that makes it unsuitable for gaming.
