It appears the hottest hardware trend right now is making anything that folds. The latest company to join the trend is Logitech, which today unveiled its first foldable mouse.
The Mobi Fold is a compact, wireless peripheral designed to address the gap between professionals who own a mouse and those who use one in public places. “For a long time, people have left their mice behind simply because they were a hassle to carry around, not because they didn't want to use one,” said Joseph Mingori, Logitech’s general manager.
The Mobi Fold is about 2.6 x 2.5 inches, weighs 79 grams, and folds to about half its size. The mouse automatically switches on when you unfold it and switches off when you fold it. Mobi Fold’s chassis is made with recycled plastic and wrapped with a dust-resistant silicone sleeve. At first glance, it might remind you of Microsoft’s Surface Arc mouse.
The hinge offers up to 130 degrees of adjustment and is “tested to withstand 15 years of daily use.” Its top half is designed to naturally fit your hand and reduces “muscle strain by 22% compared to a laptop trackpad,” Logitech says.
As with most Logitech mice, Mobi Fold connects with up to three devices via Bluetooth and is compatible with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux. It also supports Android and iPadOS, and it includes a button to switch between connected devices.
The mouse offers “quiet clicks” to ensure you don’t disturb anyone at a cafe or library, and has a touch panel at the center for scrolling. It also has on-device AI to avoid accidental clicks. The top and bottom portions of the touch panel feature customizable buttons you can assign actions to in the Logi Options+ App, ranging from shortcuts to launch an app to taking screenshots.
On one end of the mouse, you’ll find a USB-C port for charging. “A 1-minute charge provides 22 hours of use, and up to 30 days of use with a full charge,” Logitech says.
The Mobi Fold starts at $79.99 and is available in graphite, lilac, and off-white colors. There’s also a USB-C receiver variant, called Mobi Fold for Business, that starts at $89.99.
