Our Verdict

Logitech M510

Logitech Marathon Mouse M705

The Logitech Marathon Mouse M705 is a better office mouse than the Logitech M510. The M705 has a more comfortable, right-slanted ergonomic body with a thumb rest and a scroll wheel that you can unlock for free-scrolling. On the other hand, the M510 is an ambidextrous mouse with a longer body better suited for larger hands, though it has a cheaper-feeling build quality. Its mouse feet are PTFE, which is better than the plastic feet on the M705, but neither of them slides very smoothly on mousepads or desks.
