The Logitech M330 Silent Plus is a quiet wireless mouse for offices, libraries and shared rooms. Logitech says it reduces over 90 percent of clicking sounds compared with its M170 mouse, measured by an independent lab. It connects through a small USB receiver with up to 10 m of range, runs on one AA battery rated for up to 18 months, and weighs 91 g with the battery. One correction: our old title said 2-year battery. Logitech’s current figure is 18 months, so we have changed it.

How quiet the Logitech M330 Silent Plus is, and what the 90 percent means
Logitech’s headline claim for the Logitech M330 Silent Plus is that it reduces over 90 percent of clicking sounds. The condition matters: Logitech compared the left click sound level of the M330 against its own Logitech M170 mouse, and the dBA measurement was made by an independent lab at 1 metre.
In practice, the clicks go from a sharp tick that the person next to you hears to a soft press that is hard to hear across a desk. That is why people buy it for open offices, university libraries, a shared bedroom where someone is sleeping, or late-night work next to a sleeping baby.
Logitech calls the technology SilentTouch. The scroll wheel is rubber, which Logitech describes as tactile, with controlled line-by-line scrolling.
Battery life on the Logitech M330 Silent Plus: 18 months, and our title correction
The Logitech M330 Silent Plus runs on one AA battery, which comes pre-installed in the box according to Logitech. Logitech’s current rating is up to 18 months of use, and it adds that battery life may vary based on user and computing conditions.
Our old product title said 2-year battery. That figure appears on older listings, but Logitech’s own product and specification pages now say 18 months. We have corrected our title in both English and Arabic.
The mouse has an on/off switch and an auto-sleep mode, according to Logitech, which is how it stretches one battery so far. Switching it off in a laptop bag also stops it waking up and draining power when it moves around.
Connection, range and compatibility of the Logitech M330 Silent Plus
The Logitech M330 Silent Plus connects through a 2.4 GHz USB receiver, which Logitech describes as plug and play. Plug the receiver into a USB-A port and the mouse works without installing software. Logitech rates the range at up to 10 metres, and adds that range may vary with user, environmental and computing conditions.
Logitech lists compatibility with Windows, macOS and Linux, and says the mouse is certified Works with Chromebook.
One thing to check: the receiver needs a USB-A port. Many new thin laptops and MacBooks only have USB-C, so you would need a USB-C to USB-A adapter. The Logitech M330 Silent Plus does not use Bluetooth, according to the connection Logitech lists.
Size, weight and grip of the Logitech M330 Silent Plus
Logitech gives the mouse dimensions as 105.4 mm long, 67.9 mm wide and 38.4 mm high, and the weight as 91 g with the battery. The USB receiver weighs 1.8 g.
It is a right-hand asymmetric design, according to Logitech, shaped to rest the hand in a natural position. Left-handed users will find it uncomfortable and should choose a symmetrical mouse instead.
It has three buttons: left click, right click and a middle click on the scroll wheel. There are no back and forward side buttons, which people who browse or edit documents a lot sometimes miss.
Tracking is optical, with a nominal resolution of 1000 DPI according to Logitech. That suits office work, spreadsheets and browsing. It is not a gaming sensor and DPI cannot be adjusted.
Who the Logitech M330 Silent Plus is for, and who should not buy it
It suits office workers, students and anyone who shares a room, people who work late while others sleep, and anyone who finds the click of a normal mouse distracting. It also suits people who hate charging devices, since one AA battery lasts many months.
Who it is not for: left-handed users, because the shape is right-handed. Gamers, since 1000 DPI with no adjustment is an office sensor. People who want back and forward buttons. Owners of USB-C only laptops without an adapter. And anyone who wants Bluetooth to avoid using a USB port, since this model uses a receiver.
For gaming, a wired gaming mouse such as the Razer DeathAdder Essential is the better choice.
