Honestly, I have to admit I had some issues with this mouse at first when got it.
I purchased this to use with my M1 MacBook which only has 2 USB C ports (thanks Apple), so I didn't want to waste one with a receiver or to have to always use a dongle. This mouse seemed like the perfect fit. On the first weeks, however, I had a lot of issues with it stuttering and it was not a great experience. I found out that that was more of an Apple issue than a Logitech issue, and that it even happened with Apple's Magic Mouse on some laptops. I tried everything to fix it, but it just didn't budge. A few weeks later, my laptop received an update that seems to have fixed it. It still stutters sometimes, but way less than before, and not enough to be bothersome of even noticeable.
Then, there is the case of the scroll wheel and the software. Apparently, Logitech hadn't updated their software to work with the M1 macs yet, so it just didn't work at all for a few weeks. I had to adapt to the mouse as it was, without being able to configure it to my liking (which was one of the main things I wanted). The scroll wheel has some impressive technology, but it was a bit too soft for my liking, and it would not scroll smoothly on the Mac OS. Today, I finally got the app to work and it, after messing around with it, I've got this mouse to be just as I wanted. Really, it is perfect.
You can disable the thing where it transitions from ratched mode to smooth mode automatically, you can adjust the firmness of the scroll, and you can configure every one of its 5 buttons to do pretty much whatever you want. The technology on the scroll wheel is truly impressive, and the battery life is flawless (I use it every day, all day, and I still haven't had to charge it, not even once - and it shows a full battery on the Logi Options app).
The clicks are indeed loud, but not enough to be bothersome in my opinion. It is an expensive mouse, but one that seems very well built and, knowing Logitech, one that will last for years to come. I fully expect to have to upgrade my laptop before having to buy another mouse.
