Logitech M196 Bluetooth Mouse-Graphite
The Logitech M196 Bluetooth Mouse in Graphite represents a modern evolution in the brand’s essential peripheral lineup. While its predecessors relied on USB receivers, the M196 is built specifically for the “dongle-free” generation, prioritizing seamless connectivity and environmental responsibility without sacrificing the tactile reliability Logitech is known for.
Seamless Bluetooth Connectivity
The standout feature of the Bluetooth Mouse is its integration of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology. Unlike traditional wireless mice that occupy a precious USB-A port, the M196 connects directly to your laptop, tablet, or desktop. This makes it an ideal companion for modern ultrabooks and iPads that lack standard USB ports. With a wireless range of up to 10 meters (33 feet), it maintains a stable, lag-free connection even in environments crowded with other wireless signals.
Designed for Portability and Comfort
The M196 adheres to a compact, travel-friendly philosophy. Its dimensions (approximately 100 mm x 60 mm x 38 mm) make it small enough to slide into the smallest accessory pockets of a laptop bag. Despite its size, it features a contoured, ambidextrous shape that provides enough curvature to support the palm for both left- and right-handed users. Weighing in at just 76 grams (including the battery), it offers a feather-light experience that reduces wrist fatigue during long mobile work sessions.
Sustainability and Build
Logitech has leaned heavily into eco-conscious manufacturing with this model. The M196 is constructed using a significant percentage of certified post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic:
Contain 66% recycled plastic.
This commitment to sustainability is paired with a durable build quality designed to withstand the rigors of daily travel.
Precision and Endurance
The Logitech M196 Bluetooth Mouse utilizes Advanced Optical Tracking with a fixed resolution of 1000 DPI. This sensitivity is optimized for daily productivity, providing smooth cursor movement on most common surfaces, from wooden desks to laminate cafe tables. Navigation is further enhanced by a 2D mechanical scroll wheel that provides tactile, line-by-line scrolling.In terms of power, the M196 is a “set and forget” device. A single AA battery (pre-installed) provides up to 12 months of battery life. This longevity is supported by an intelligent auto-sleep mode and a physical on/off switch on the base.
The M196 is the perfect solution for the minimalist professional who wants a clean, wire-free desk and a mouse that pairs in seconds.
