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.

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
    • Who is paying for this 30x scale-up? Its sounds expensive.
