Logitech M196 Bluetooth Mouse – Rose
The Logitech M196 Bluetooth Mouse is a compact, dongle-free wireless mouse built for laptop and tablet users who need reliable on-the-go navigation without cluttering their workspace. It connects directly over Bluetooth, eliminating the need for a USB receiver and freeing up a port. Available in Rose, it suits students, remote workers, and light-duty office users who want a portable, everyday pointing device.
No Dongle, No Fuss
Many portable mice still rely on a nano USB receiver. The M196 pairs directly over Bluetooth. Press and hold the power button, locate the mouse in your device’s Bluetooth settings, and you’re working within seconds. This is particularly useful on tablets and ultrabooks with limited USB ports.
Designed to Travel
The M196 measures in at a compact footprint that fits comfortably in a laptop bag or backpack side pocket. Its contoured, symmetrical shell suits both left- and right-handed users equally well. Furthermore, the lightweight construction means it adds minimal weight to your daily carry.

Use Cases & Applications
Students and Remote Workers
The M196 is well suited to students working across multiple devices or remote workers who move between home and co-working spaces. Bluetooth connectivity means no dongle to lose, and the compact size fits into any bag without occupying much space. The 12-month battery life removes the inconvenience of frequent replacements during a busy semester or work schedule.
Tablet and Ultrabook Users
On devices with limited USB-A ports — such as thin-and-light laptops or Android and Windows tablets — a Bluetooth mouse is a more practical choice than a receiver-based model. The M196 pairs reliably with both Windows and macOS systems. However, users on ChromeOS should verify Bluetooth HID compatibility with their specific device before purchasing.
