The Logitech V470 is a slick Bluetooth mouse for notebooks, so you can enjoy your wireless freedom on the road. It utilizes two AA batteries as a power source and can be had in either blue or white. The V470 is intended for notebooks with built-in Bluetooth and also comes with a pouch for easy transportation.

Thanks for the great review!

There is just a small mistake with the two last links to caseking, both go to the same article with the color white ;)

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but I just read this review and have a question about it. On the last page, one of the "thumbs up" points is "Solid feel," but one of the "thumbs down" points is "Plastic feels a bit flimsy." I'm having a hard time reconciling those two comments.

Hi Austin!

It is ok if you ressurect the thread :)

Well the plastic of the mouse is very solid, which means there is no creaking, the paint job is perfect and you can treat the mouse as you would any device in your notebook bag. It is a very robust mouse.

But on the other side, the mouse feels hollow and it is painfully obvious that the part is build completely out of plastic unlike other notebook logitech mice like the VX Revolution. Some may not like that.

Thus the two points.

In your review of the Logitech V470 Bluetooth Mouse, you say, "you will have to reconnect it everytime the notebook is turned off." Does this reconnection happen automatically, or does it require interaction between the user and the mouse software every time the computer is turned on?

No it does not. Maybe you can set your bluetooth module to automatically connect to the mouse, but not trough the software. You will have to do manually. This is a security measure, so that no other device can sneak n there instead.
