Shape

Body shapeiDescribes shell symmetry, not the intended hand. Symmetrical with side buttons on one side differs from an asymmetric right-handed body. Ambidextrous means a symmetrical body with side buttons on both sides.

Symmetrical body2Owner's manualm.media-amazon.com/images/I/B14JGB3W6TL.pdfRead 14 October 2026The manual figure and the listing photos show a small symmetrical body with no side buttons. The manual calls it a wireless mouse and names no handedness.

Symmetrical body3Maker product pagelogitech.com/en-us/products/mice/m185-wireless-mouse.910-002225.htmlRead 10 October 2026Maker explicitly says designed equally for left- and right-handed users. The complete three-button layout has no side buttons. This maps to symmetrical, not the schema ambidextrous category requiring side buttons on both sides.

2 of 5 differ

Mouse body dimensionsiLength from front to rear, width at the widest body point, and maximum height. Cable and receiver are excluded. Approximate maker figures are qualified in source notes. Logitech pages often label the front-to-rear length Height and the body height Depth, so map the figures by size.

The same page's description says 3.75 x 2.25 x 1.5 in, a rounder figure that disagrees by up to 5 mm. The bullet matches the US item dimensions and is stored. The page does not name the axes, so they are read as length, width and height. The nano receiver is not included in the size.

Grip widthiBody width where the thumb and opposite grip finger sit. This differs from maximum body width.

Mouse weight (claimed)iWireless mice include the battery. When the maker does not say whether a removable battery is in the weight, the published weight is stored and the source note says so. Wired mice exclude the cable. Source notes identify installed skates, colour, approximation, tolerance or a published bound.

62.65g(2.2 oz)3Maker product pageamazon.co.uk/dp/B005EJH6Z4Read 14 October 2026Product details bullet: 62.65 Grams. The US listing gives 0.1 kg, which is consistent when rounded. The page does not say whether the two AAA batteries are included. Reseller copies show 2.39 oz (about 68 g) and 3.52 oz (about 100 g), which look like older or rounded data. The wired Amazon Basics mouse with its cable is about 80 g, so about 63 g with two cells is plausible.

Maker storefront independently labels its matching 75.2 g mouse mass as with batteries. The 50.5 g 2014 catalog mass is not the required with-battery mass and is excluded.
