If you own a Mx700 mouse, has this happened to it?

notice how the silver is wearing off around the base and where i rest my middle finger on the second mouse buttons...

I've had it over a year now, and it has played countless hours of FPS, in fact all kind of games, and at least 8 hours a day minimum being used normally for IE/Word and windows stuff.

I don't have a particularly sweaty paw usually...has this happened to anyone elses's Mx700?

 

[GeneValgene]

yep, my silver is wearing off too

Nope

 

[Kipper]

Nah.

 

[Gurck]

Looks like mine's just starting to, that or it's just smoothing out from the original slight texture. And yeah, awesome mouse.

 

[Baked]

No, I clean my fricking hands before I touch the mouse.

maybe that's just dirt/ grime, have you tried wiping it off?

yeah, its definitely the silver wearing off, and smoothing out the slight texture like Gurck said i think looking at it more closely

 

[bradruth]

Yeah, but just where my palm rests on it.

I have the MX500, same problem. I've had it like, 3 years now or so, awesome mouse, it's just wear on the paint or something. I've tried cleaning it, it's wear and tear

 

[slpaulson]

The paint on mine is still fine, but the rubberized stuff is wearing off a little on the sides.

same for me, on my mx500.

 

[Frew]

Yes, My MX510 is worst than your MX700.

 

[So]

Same here, plus a little more wear at the base of the mouse, and on the logo.

 

[pray4mojo]

Yes my silver has worn off too. Except mine IS DEAD. LANOIANWOIDNAONBGOIRGNIOSWRGJSDILFnjO>*IEBNGOUWBNGO:ENGR

Time for MX510.

 

[imported_Phil]

Mine's doing the exact same thing, in the same place. I have another spot of it where the base of your thumb rests.

 

[MikeMike]

my dual optical isnt wearing anywhere.

but it needs cleaned

From what I understand, things like that are one of the side effects of using paints with even the slightest bit of metallic content. The small bits of metal can't seep into the plastic to make it hold color like most other paints can and will eventually wear off.

Oh well. As long as it's working right, you're good to go.

Ditto.

 

[rickn]

my mx500 is the same, I just ordered me an mx700 too. i fully expect the same logitech quality out of it. also, the feet on my mx500 are gone!

 

[YOyoYOhowsDAjello]

Dug, enough with the mx700 comments... if you hate it so much, I give you permission to get a new mouse

EDIT: oh, and no... after a couple years mine still looks tip top.
