Logitech M505 vs. M305: Has anyone got both the M505 and M305?

Basically it has the same number of features that the Logitech M305 has, the side scrolling function is there though no other added features like multimedia buttons added just like the higher end Logitech Wireless Mouse. The only difference is that the Logitech M505 supports the Unifying Receiver unlike the M305 which does not. Though the Logitech M505 needs 2 AA Batteries as compared to Logitech M305 which only needs 1 AA Battery, the lifespan of the M505 has a longer duration which as 15 months (as advertised) compared to M305 which is 6 months (as advertised) though my Logitech M305 lasted for 2 months only on a regular daily use.

The M705 is a great starter mouse (owned 3). G700 (own 2) adds more buttons but you lose the thumb button which is more useful for non-gaming needs. :)

Thanks for your response. I went ahead and got the Logitech and am happy with it, once I adjusted the speed of the cursor. I have a very light touch.

I believe I know what the original question was regarding. This is the reason I am looking to purchase another pointing device. Apparently from what I've read, Logitech started producing there devices using cheaper and inferior micro switches. After a bit of use the buttons start performing double clicks even though you only clicked once. I had purchased the Logitech M570 about 6 months ago and it's already performing double clicks. So frustrating!

I would return any logitech you purchased and go with this one. It's great. I have no complaints at all. I've purchased 8 different ones before these.

Suggestion- Go to the Logitech home page. Hopefully you will find the answer to your question.

they are completely different. M50 are closed, transportable, rugged - better for dj, on the move...K701 are for home use only. max comfort, open (=of course much better sound). Adam, in-ear.com

I have two different branded laptops and the mouse works flawlessly with both. I have had no problems with the Logitech M318e mouse.

Because Logitech hasn't made this mouse in almost 6 years, and it's an AMAZINGLY popular mouse. Also are you certain the one you saw in the store was a G5 and not the new G500?

Just curious Mike - do you have some inside info on this, or has something been announced by Logitech?

Hi Nelson, it is compatible with the M705 BUT, you cannot just "plug and play." You have to download the Logitech Unifying Software. Once you you, I believe you can then "plug and play" with any other Logitech wireless devices. Hope this helps!

I had to go back to my g500 due to an issue with my g502. The g500 felt like a wet turd in my hand. Instantly went back to my g502 when it came in the mail.

From what I can see there is no substantial difference between the two series. They look the same and have substantially the same hardware. The M5 listings I have seen seem identical to the V5 I bought. I recommend the V5 so I can imagine the M5 is good too. One note: I got the V5-573PG-9610 which comes with an Nvidia GPU. If you can find this, it is worth it! It makes games and video and graphic programs run much better.

Hey Robert.. I am wondering the same thing.. I actually bought 2 of the M305..they work great but its a little small for my hand. My girlfriend luvs hers, But she has smaller hands. Hope that helps a little bit.

Mine were ordered a while back and it works perfectly. However, I am using discover 975 Plantronics brand and they work fine with it! I would call the company and check with them regarding M55, looks like it has the same fit, but you never know.

I wish that I could tell you the difference, but given the fact that I've never listened to anything through the M50's, I can't comment on that headset. I can tell you that the M50's cost a lot less (at least recently given some deals on the M50's), I can tell you that there is probably a lot more quality built into the ATH-A700Xs, but whether or not you would be able to discern the difference I'm sure will come down to preference. I say spring for these (ATH-A700X) since I can comment on them and they are ridiculous. You won't be disappointed
