The Logitech T400 Zone Touch Mouse is another entry in Logitech's range of peripherals that are aimed at making the switch to Windows 8 more palatable for those of us who don't have touch-enabled laptops or desktop PCs.

Gesture support; Touch works well; Decent price

Buttons aren't comfortable to press; Standard looks

This generally well-designed portable mouse is comfortable, though it features only minimal Windows 8 enhancements.

Ambidextrous; low-profile design; Easy plug-and-play operation; Highly responsive on most surfaces

Rubberized grooves on sides easily attract dirt; No in-mouse storage for USB dongle; Touch strip's two zones not clearly differentiated

When someone tries to sell you a mouse that is "optimized for Windows 8," they're selling a mouse that has touchscreen controls mapped onto it

Well-tuned touch zone doesn't do too much, but what it does, it does well; Comfortable to use most of the time; Lightweight and easy to pack.

Not too comfortable to use for extended periods; If you're looking for a mouse with a full suite of Windows 8 touch controls, this isn't it – no multi-touch functionality.

The Logitech Zone Touch Mouse T400 is one of many new devices designed to compliment Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system. Priced at £39.99 and available in a choice of black, red (pictured) and blue, it's an affordable accessory that should enhance productivity on a Windows 8 PC.

It looks like new. It connected to my unifying USB in no time and works immediately. It take a while to get use to the swiping strip but it's OK and convenient once you are used to it.

I like it because of the brand name and features but I think it's too expensive for the features. I will recommend this product to windows 8 users though.

Wasn't sure about the touch scrolling and such but now that I've got this mouse for my desktop it feels quite natural and fluid. Definitely not a gaming product but it's great for browsing and such. Good build quality and feel. Solid Logitech product.

Nice looking mouse, beautifully built and finished but its a dud. ergonomically poor - too small in hand, find fingers running off the front of the mouse; stiff left and right buttons, soft centre button give hand cramps.

I use it for my HTPC. It behaves very well on any surface in my living room. The scrolling is not very smooth though. The choppiness could be due to the fact that my HTPC is slightly challenge (it is slow and needs to be replaced).
