ABOUT MX ANYWHERE 2

Logitech MX Anywhere 2 Wireless mobile mouse is a lightweight wireless mouse that sets new

standards for performance and precision in a mouse you can take with you.

Connect with up to three devices using Logitech’s tiniest receiver—the Pico Unifying™ receiver—

or Bluetooth® Smart wireless technology; then switch between your Mac, PC, or Microsoft Surface

with the touch of a button.

Use the scroll wheel to navigate in click-to-click mode or in a hyperfast mode that’s perfect for long

documents or web pages. Convenient back and forward buttons give you even greater control.

The compact MX Anywhere 2 is the ideal combination of comfort and portability—at home, at work,

and on the go. Darkfield™ Laser Tracking gives you flawless control on virtually any surface,

including glass (4 mm minimum thickness) and other high-gloss materials.

Unlock all the possibilities MX Anywhere 2 offers by installing Logitech Options™ software. In

addition to optimizing the mouse for your operating system, the software lets you customize MX

Anywhere 2 buttons and actions to fit your needs.
