Keyboards and mice both make sound whether you like it or not. Even rubber-domed keyboards do tend to emit a bit of sound when pressed, although admittedly considerably less compared to their mechanical cousins. But mice, mice don’t really get too noisy save for the occasional click and here and there.However Logitech believes that there might be a market for people who can appreciate a mouse that is silent, and have since launched the Logitech M330 Silent Plus and the M220 Silent Mouse. Both of these mice are wireless and apparently be pretty quiet with about a 90% noise reduction.
According to Anatoliy Polyanker, global portfolio and brand director at Logitech, “We live in a social world, whether you work in a shared space or at home, but sometimes silence really is golden. That’s why we created the M330 Silent Plus and the M220 Silent mice. Our engineers studied the sources of noise made by a computer mouse and created ways to reduce the decibel level without sacrificing quality.”
Like we said, both mice are wireless and according to Logitech, the M330 will last a good 24 months before needing a recharge, while the M220 will go for 18 months, both of which are pretty impressive durations. They are also priced at $30 and $25 respectively.
