Well this is good to know, I have just bought a Logitech Performance MX Mouse .... eagerly counting the hours before I can go home and try it lol

Good to know that the support is good in case I'm become in need of it :)

My G15 Keyboard, original blue model space bar stopped working right last February, called Logitech, and they agreeded to send a Orange backlighted keys model-aka G15 Version 2, and so then I got a new Logitech mouse when my Microsoft one died, and new Logitech Attack 3 Joystick later in 2012, next will probably get new speakers in the future based on the Great Customer Service I had with my keyboard issue

I love Logitech, I have purchased 6 sets of speakers from them, some for me, others for friends as presents, I have their wired Illuminated keyboard, two HD webcams a trackpad for Windows 8, and probably other products I have forgotten now through the years and I have always had great support from them, only thing I did not like was a Logitech mouse I got a while back, switched for a Microsoft one, but overall I love their products and have had great experiences with them.

Another satisfied customer here. I currently own Logitech speakers, going on 4 years, and a mouse and keyboard combo, going on 2 years for them. I was pleased with the Logitech speakers and decided to see if I would be equally pleased if I bought the other products from them, and thus far I am.

I didn't expect this from Logitech!

Microsoft also has really great customer service when it comes to hardware. They still just send you a replacement without you having to send the item back. If they don't have it available anymore you can decide whatever replacement product you want from their entire product range (within the same category). When my Wireless Optical Desktop 2000 keyboard started to not register presses on some keys most of the time they just sent me a brand new, complete Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 (which was a pretty serious upgrade) and I didn't have to return the old set. Same with my webcam, some very cheap LifeCam I had once won in a competition, would no longer show an image yet it still showed up as connected - they sent me some HD LifeCam instead. Since then I've only bought Microsoft keyboards and mice.

Apparently Logitech in the US operates differently to over here. I've used Logitech products since my first windows build and have had a pretty good run from them.

But when I tried to get my Logitech sound system fixed, can't remember the model but it was the 5.1 system with the remote rear speakers (which stopped working). They would not come to the party and I ended up having to buy a new 5.1 system that is fully wired.

Just recently the left shift key started to malfunction on my G19 keyboard. After several emails back and forth, they won't do anything unless I send them the original receipt etc.

Couldn't tell you where that got to. Upshot is, no RMA. :(

I've never had anything but Logitech keyboards/mice (with the exception of one really terrible MS mouse) and I always recommend Logitech mice to all who ask.

Still on my original keyboard (which is probably close to 10yrs old now), though I'm on my 3rd mouse. I had extremely bad luck with the MX1000, had 2 of them stop working properly. On the 2nd one, instead of sending me a 3rd MX1000 they sent an MX Revolution which I thought was nice because it's easily $30-$40 more expensive than the MX1000 was.

All I've ever had to do was pay for shipping the old one back, which the last two times has been about $12. Not a bad exchange for getting back a $100 mouse.

In other words, Logitech == awesome.

I've always had good experiences with them. About 3 years ago, I ordered a webcam. They accidentally sent a slightly older model than the one I ordered, but it was practically identical. I asked them if I could return it for the newer one and they said yes. A day later I got an email saying "We're refunding you $40, and you can keep the webcam". So free webcam.

More recently, I bought one of their solar keyboards. Had an issue with it dying too quickly. They troubleshooted it and decided to just send me a brand new replacement while letting me keep the old one.

My K800 keyboard had a faulty Enter key above the shift button which made for an inconvenience while typing essays and whatnot. Logitech promptly sent me a new keyboard in a retail package because I also use a M510 mouse and couldn't give my Unifying receiver to them either (The M510's receiver I lost). I've used their products since 2004 and I have yet to be disappointed. Their 5.1 x-540 speakers also work well for me, an older webcam from 2005 didn't work too well from Vista and on but mehh it didn't work anyways on other XP machines so no biggie.

I have the X540's and they still work after being thru 4 moves and being beat up during one of those (moving in a huff). I haven't really needed Logitech support for anything and I'm happy bout that.

I always had Logitech keyboards, mice and webcams. Whenever I had issues with them, I'd contact them, and if inside warranty, they would send me a replacement product (either the same or newer model) and I was asked to cut the USB cable from the old product and ship it back with the package they had provide.

I recently bought a G500 and hope I never need to send it back but you never know these days with poor quality things, don't build em like they use to eh!

Logitech has 3 years warranty on their mice I know for sure, but does your warranty carry over from original purchase date, or have you started a new 3 year warranty?

Be excellent if it does, I know Apple doesn't do that though, sods

As I said in my earlier post, Logitech in Australia is not that good a company to deal with in regards to faulty products.

My complaint re: the G19 has apparently be resolved according to Logitech.

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that we have to check your receipt before we can assist you

further with the replacement process. I hope you would still have a great day, John.

After buying in excess of 20 odd items from the company since 2000, registering each one on their site. It's a nice FU in my opinion.

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
