If you are commonly using a laptop on your desk and adding things to an iPad for when you’re on the go, this might be a great feature. I was skeptical of this, but once it was set up, it actually worked very well. The last and most innovative change with the Mac-specific versions is what Logitech calls “Flow.” This is where you can pair your keyboard/mouse with two of your apple devices, have both devices open on your desk, and move your mouse, files, and images across devices seamlessly. The original versions include USB-A to USB-C connectors, again driven by the limited port available on Macs. Seems that a more elegant solution would have been to include a USB-C version of the dongle, but out of the box, your only option to connect is with Bluetooth.Īnother change is that the charging cables are USB-C to USB-C.

Perhaps this is due to the dongles being USB-A, and new Macs being exclusively USB-C. They will still work with dongles that you have, but they are not included like they are with the original versions. First, neither includes the Logi Bolt USB Receiver dongle. There are three changes that both the keyboard and mouse share. I do that alot and I struggle with the left-click 'foot' to do the same thing.Because we have reviewed the original versions of these products recently, I will focus on the updates and unique features that make the keyboard and mouse specific for Macs. One thing I don't like - and perhaps another trick to learn - is duplicating the click, hold & drag operation of a mouse.

I had to download software on each PC/laptop that I used with the Touchpad so that the touch-clicks and double-clicks would work. Which brings me to a point of the Touchpad I love. Every now and again I'd nudge that mouse and bump the right side button with usually unpleasa nt, unplanned results. I used to have an LX8 (also Logitech) which had the back button at the thumb and the forward button on the pinky side (if you right-hand the mouse). Two are the back/forward thumb buttons - absolutely the best improvement on a mouse since they went optical. I love it when it works and curse the times when it doesn't. However, there are two features of my Logitech M510 mouse that I miss dearly - and perhaps I need to learn some Touchpad-specific gestures. I bought it as a replacement for the T620 touch mouse.

The Touchpad is excellent as a pointing device as its larger surface allows a quick sweep across a widescreen display. Like anything else - learn to drive it and I'm sure you'll love driving it!
