Logitech Mobi Fold Ultra-Portable Wireless Mouse

The Logitech Mobi Fold is built around a single idea: a real mouse that fits in your pocket. Folded, it measures 2.5 by 2.2 by 0.8 inches and weighs under 0.2 pounds. Unfolded, it opens to 4.75 inches, roughly the length of a standard desktop mouse. Unfold to power on, fold to power off. No switches, no apps, no setup.

Bluetooth connects to up to three devices with an Easy Switch button on the underside to hop between laptop, tablet, and phone. Compatible with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Android, and iPadOS. The 4,000 DPI optical sensor is fast and accurate on most surfaces, including fabric in a pinch. Battery life runs a full month on a single USB C charge, and a one minute quick charge delivers 22 hours of use, which matters because the mouse cannot be used while charging.

The design is ambidextrous with standard left and right buttons. Where Logitech made a polarizing choice is the center control. Instead of a traditional scroll wheel, the Mobi Fold uses an Active Touch Scroll trackpad that handles line by line scrolling, hyperfast navigation, forward and back commands, and tap to zoom. It works well for slow reading and precise navigation. For fast scrolling through long pages, early reviews suggest it feels sluggish compared to a physical wheel. That trade off is the price of the folding format, and whether it bothers you depends on how much you scroll versus how much you value pocketability.

The silicone ridged shell that enables the folding mechanism also attracts dust and lint, particularly in lighter colors. Logitech includes a free travel pouch when purchased through their site, which helps. Available in graphite, lilac, off white, and sand. $80.

For anyone who works from cafes, airports, and hotel desks and has been carrying a mouse that takes up more bag space than it should, the Mobi Fold solves a genuine problem. The compromise is a trackpad where a scroll wheel used to be. For most mobile workers, that is a trade worth making.
