You didn't seriously think China or Logitech was going to pay that tariff, did you? Be prepared for a LOT of stuff to cost more.

[โ€“] [email protected] -2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Literally no one knows how tariffs work ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

The way tariffs work is companies pass on the cost of those tariffs directly to consumers by raising their prices. THAT'S how tariffs work.

Nobody is getting "punished" by this except consumers.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

A gross oversimplification. Yay!

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 5 hours ago

Better than offering literally no information at all, which you seem to enjoy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

Exactly. Tariffs are a "pass through cost."

So, yeah, most people know exactly how they work.

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

Logitech are fucking dead to me after the shit they pulled with the harmony remotes.

Don't @ me about the age of the hardware, it's the practice they still do today: make hardware dependant on their services, then cripple them when they feel like it. You cannot trust them

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Maybe tariffs were just a way to convert what could have been corporate greed into Trumpian incompetence

Red dragon stuff is pretty ok, just saying.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

I got secret santa'd a Red Dragon mechanical Keyboard and ended up buying a matching mouse & speakers.

I recommend them to anyone who asks.

[โ€“] [email protected] 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My mouse is now worth 25% more?

Suck it, Bitcoin!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

Should have bought all the stock during the last Black Friday.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Logitech was already overpriced and poor quality.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

The fact they kept selling their flagship mouse with usb micro was appalling. And I think the only reason they moved to usbc was because of the EU. For a $200 mouse ๐Ÿ™„

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Wait till you discover their main racing wheel is a 25 year old design that they remove features from and raise the price with every re release. Logi is a shit company. There is 0 reason to buy any of their stuff.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Definitely profits first. I recall they hit the news because some manager said they would consider a mouse subscription service if it was possible.

They fully went on the embargo list after that one.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 40 minutes ago

Oh I did not know it was that bad, i just tought they were overpriced, overhyped normie brand that is popular since it has better packaging than ACME

I own 2 of their vertical mouses

There aren't really many alternatives readily available

The hardware has gotten a lot better, but they're really not targeting the high the market anyway

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I also own two vertical mices, their most expensive ones. They are built like shit and ive had to replace switches multiple times. I moved to protoarc trackball for everything but gaming. I will be replacing my logi with keychron m5 as its "premium material" has completely disintegrated in like 5 years and its just nasty.

The MX Master 2S fared better than one MX Master 3 and the 3S I got from an RMA...
The surface is already getting gummy.

My 2 g502 mice and 3 keyboards in use, one from 2004, beg to differ.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Gonna call bullshit on that one. I've been using the G502 for years and I like the feel of it. I've gone through 3 and keep a spare in box for when it starts to double click. The X has been chugging for a couple of years now, but I've used a lot of mice, I really shouldn't have to spend $80 to get a mouse that lasts more than 6 months.

Still, they absolutely want to force people to a monthly fee.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

That's my experience with Razer

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I still have my Logitech BT mouse from 2005. Still working great. Are their newer products bad?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, my old logi from pre 2010 are nice but now jts just low quality overpriced stuff with switched that constantly fail.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Google "Logitech mouse double clicking". If you don't get top of the line, good chance you'll be double clicking in 6 months of moderate use.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I hear about this a lot, but I feel like it must be a problem with newer models. I have a G502 from 2016 (pre-logo change) that gets heavy office/gaming use 8-10 hours most days and still works perfectly. The metal scroll wheel is pretty corroded though.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago

It's hit and miss. I was getting bad switches in Logitech mice back in 2005. The double-click problem has been around for a long time.

Thanks conservatives, non-voters, and 3rd party voters.

You're reaaaaaal smart. Give yourselves a pat on the back.

[โ€“] [email protected] -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Downvote for 3rd party.
Every party more is important as to not give any party full control.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

You're right, red vs blue isn't the real fight, and the people can't win until they start acting against the real threat to the people.

It's sad you're being downvoted. The two party system needs to go.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Whew... The F310 is still $19.99.

Had me worried for a second.

Mine won't implode because I'm not using the wireless controller.
