"New V220 not as good as the old one"

by Tigralady on January 31, 2008

Pros: small size, easy use on laptop surface, price, 1 battery

Cons: slow response, inert, not smooth,
Summary: Perhaps its just me, but the new V220 mouse is not equivalent to the old one - so buyers beware. This one wouldn't run at all on the top of my black desk - my old one did. I was looking forward to the new smaller size of the current V220 since I use my mouse on the top of my laptop most often. Sorry to say, I decided not to keep the new V220 due to the slowness and hesitation of movement. The price is right. The size is right for me (woman). I wanted a cheaper mouse since I transport my laptop fairly often and always run the risk of dropping my mouse.

Also, Logitech's web site needs help - in order to find out how to insert a battery, you need their "manual". In order to find their manual on their web site, you MUST use the word "manual", not battery or any other operational word search. I ended up paying a long distance call charge to find out I was not pushing in the cover release button far enough and/or had my thumb in the way of the cover popping loose. VERY frustrating. Also, their email support needs modification because I got an error message that said I needed "a value" but I could not see any field on their screen to which that message applied, plus it required system and part information that had no relavance to the question I wanted to ask. Oh, yes, and the part number they wanted was inside the battery compartment which I was trying to open. Come on folks! The new battery cover release buttons are a fine idea - the old V220 just didn't have that, plus without being able to see an illustration I had no idea my thumb/finger was in the way.

Since the old V220 served me well for over 3 yrs and much better than the new version, I can't help but wonder if the changes were made purposely to drive buyers up to the next price level????
