How stiff or light is the middle button (scroll wheel) when it comes to clicking it down? Is it about as light as the other two primary left and right buttons, or is it noticeably harder to press down? Thanks

I would say it is about as stiff as the two side buttons, maybe a slight bit harder to press, but very similar. It is not difficult to press down, but I also do not find myself accidentally clicking it either. I use it 9+ hours a day, as I purchased it for work and have not had any issues with any of the buttons.

It's a clicker, but it's a very loose click. There are gradations in the wheel, but it's still very easy to scroll with little actual force.

old post but it does have clicks between each scroll both thumb and normal scrolls do and the normal scroll middle click is a little harder then a standard mouse but i like it its not to hard to press but enough to prevent accidental hitting of the button when scrolling.

Mine is a bit "chunky" to click down. My sense is that it's all of them as it feels designed that way.

It clicks, which I find annoying. However, if one is mechanically inclined it's easy to remedy. Remove the 2 screws in the battery compartment. Pop open the mouse. Locate the spring on the side of the scroll wheel and remove it with needle nose pliers. Pop mouse back together and replace the 2 screws, enjoy scrolling as smooth as butter. WARNING: this will certainly void any warranty and YMMV. ;-)

the mouse is shaped for right hand use, and there is a couple of long buttons that you need the thumb to press them (I'm right handed and never use them) I tested it with the left hand and if you are going to scroll and use right and left click buttons it's fine, not a deal breaker if you need a silent mouse which it's great. hope that helps

You can right click. So left click, right click, scroll wheel, and the scroll wheel clicks, too. There's also a tiny button that says dpi... or maybe idp upside-down that I have never noticed until just now. I don't know what it does.

yes, there is a middle scroll button and in my mouse works satisfactorily. give it a try ....is worth the investment.

I think the clicking is great. The buttons have a strong distinct click with good rebound. The wheel rolls smoothly and requires a little more pressure to push the wheel in to get the scroll icon on your screen. The two main buttons might require slightly more pressure to click than your typical mouse, but it's hard to say. I now use this mouse as my primary mouse with my laptop (at home or on the go) and have been really happy with it.

No, it's got a pretty solid ratchet to it. Nothing too hard, but it's there. Middle mouse click has a lot of resistance to it though.

The two buttons on the side are for scrolling the web, one will go back a page, the other will go forward, they can be programmed in game as Mouse_4 and Mouse_5. The button below the mouse wheel is a DPI thing, basically if you press it then your mouse sensitivity will increase a lot, press it again and it will go back to normal, it can't be programmed in game.

No. You're not going to accidentally depress it. The only time it's awkward to press is when the mouse is in free-scroll mode (there's a button in the middle that toggles the stepped scrolling vs free-scrolling via some kind of internal latch). These are terms I've made up just now to describe it, but in free scrolling mode you'll probably accidentally scroll when pressing the middle mouse button down.

Not too bad, still very quite but probably the loudest part of the mouse compared to the button clicks... but still very quiet. It's hard to quantify "loudness" for you but hopefully this context will help. I play video games late a night when my wife sleeps (the only time I can) and she used to always yell at me for the mouse being so load as she was a light sleeper. I bought and use this mouse now (which requires scroll wheel use too) for months and she sleeps through the night without waking up... so it passes the "angry wife" test for me. I hope this helps.

Every once in a while the mouse will "wander" or "drift". It's correctable by unplugging it then re-plugging it in to the USB port. I've not noticed any problems specifically with the scroll wheel. I've also never mapped any of the other buttons, so I can't say how well they work.

Once you install the Logitech software: The "middle click" button (right below the wheel if seen from the top) is programmable as are all other extra buttons. The Left and Right click buttons can only be swapped. I imagine this is to choose left or right handed. The wheel itself is not programmable but it lets you switch between smooth scrolling and stepped (bumpy) scrolling...

The mouse is great, but for the middle button.. If you use the middle mouse button alot, its very annoying.. Google Sketchup is difficult with this mouse. The blue led goes up to 1000DPI! This what they say.. I've had not issue with it so far.
