Logitech Marathon Mouse M705
Product Description (Logitech Marathon Mouse M705)
Exceptional Battery Life
-
Designed for longevity, the M705 Marathon Mouse can run for up to three years on just two AA batteries, thanks to its highly efficient power management and auto‑sleep mode.
-
A power on/off switch helps conserve energy when not in use, minimizing wasted charge.
-
There’s a low‑battery indicator LED that lights up when you’re down to the final stretch, giving you enough warning before you need to replace batteries.
Hyper‑Fast Dual‑Mode Scrolling
-
The scroll wheel supports dual-mode scrolling: a hyper-fast (free-spinning) mode for quickly navigating long documents or web pages, and a precision (click-to-click) mode for line-by-line control.
-
It also has a tilt (side) scroll capability, so you can scroll horizontally—very handy for spreadsheets, wide documents, or design work.
-
Switching between the two modes is seamless thanks to a dedicated mode-shift button just beneath the scroll wheel.
Ergonomic and Comfortable Design
-
The M705 has a contoured full-size shape made for right-handed users, offering a natural and comfortable hand position.
-
It includes rubber side grips to give a secure, non-slip hold even during prolonged use.
-
The sculpted build encourages a relaxed posture, reducing hand fatigue over hours of continuous work.
Responsive, Precise Tracking
-
Uses a precision optical (laser-grade) sensor for smooth and reliable cursor control, even on tricky surfaces.
-
The sensor works well across many surfaces, though like many laser-based sensors, it may struggle on glass or mirrors.
-
It offers a DPI (dots per inch) sensitivity of 1,000, which balances speed and control for typical productivity tasks.
Strong Wireless Connectivity
-
Connectivity is via Logitech’s 2.4 GHz Unifying USB receiver, which provides a stable and responsive wireless link.
-
The wireless range can reach up to 10 meters (about 33 feet), giving flexibility in placement and movement.
-
The Unifying receiver is compact and designed to be “plug‑and‑forget”; you can also pair up to six compatible Logitech devices to a single receiver.
Programmable Buttons & Productivity
-
Features seven buttons, including back/forward thumb buttons, middle click (scroll wheel), and an application-switch button.
-
With Logitech software, you can customize button assignments to speed up your common tasks (e.g., browser navigation, app switching).
-
The scroll wheel mode-shift button, plus side-scrolling, add to productivity, especially for users navigating large spreadsheets or complex documents.
Durable & Thoughtfully Engineered
-
Built with quality plastic and a rubberized grip, the M705 feels solid yet comfortable in the hand.
-
Worn or dirty mouse feet can be replaced or cleaned; the base provides slots for easy removal.
-
The battery compartment lets you use either two AA batteries or just one, offering some flexibility for weight preference.
Cross‑Platform Compatibility
-
Compatible with Windows (various versions), macOS, and certified for Chromebook devices.
-
Software support via Logitech’s configuration tools allows you to fine-tune performance across platforms.
Sustainability Focus
-
The M705 has a relatively low environmental footprint, and its long battery life reduces waste over time.
