Mouse-Wireless-suggestions-thoughts

HI
Bought a Logitech lx-3 mouse 2 1/2 years ago to use with my laptop. I tried to use the touchpad on the laptop but still prefer the ole mouse.
The Lx-3 is acting up after grandkids and me dropping it, etc over the years.
I am thinking of getting a wireless mouse. All I do is surf, pay bills and some spread sheet work and music editing and some photo printing, etc.
Since the last time I looked for a wireless mouse I see the usb receiver unit has shrunk on many models making more acceptable to me.
What concerns me is do all the mouse units use the 2.4 mhz wireless frequency?
If ao do they interfere with the wifi signal?

And, what barnd or model do you guys suggest?
Thanks

Pretty much every wireless mouse I've seen uses 2.4ghz. Technically this can interfere with a wifi signal, but only if they are on the same channel. If you're getting interference just change the channel that one of the devices is using.

I'd stick with Logitech, just pick one that suits your hand best. I'm kind of a Logitech fanboy though, been using their mice for 15 years 😀

Its way more robust than wifi
i've never had my wireless disconnect actually.

Go Logitech! The new Nano 450 (available at Costco) is a regular size version of the VX-Nano. Both feature the amazingly small R/T USB unit. Never had a problem interfering with Wi-Fi. It is a laser optical as well.

Thanks for the info!
I'll stick with the Logitech brand. I do like the small size of the lx-3 I use now.
The nano-450 looks to be a good size for me. Checked the Best Buy site and that mouse is out of stock both on line and in the stores. I'll check again in a few weeks to see if the mouse is back in stock.
Thanks!
