The Logitech Mobi Fold is a foldable travel mouse built for users who find laptop trackpads frustrating but don’t want to carry a conventional wireless mouse in their bag. At $80, it targets a narrow gap in the portable peripherals market, and it largely delivers on the premise.
Logitech Mobi Fold design and portability
Folded, the Mobi Fold measures 2.2 x 2.5 inches and sits under an inch thick, weighing barely two ounces. It fits into a jacket pocket without trouble. When you unfold it, the mouse activates automatically. Fold it shut and it powers off, preventing accidental clicks in transit. That automatic on/off is one of the more practical design decisions here.
The shape draws clear comparisons to Microsoft’s Arc Mouse line. Open, it forms a tent-style ambidextrous arch with physical left and right mouse buttons. A touchpad strip runs between them and handles scrolling and middle-click input. Underneath, there’s a USB-C charging port, Bluetooth pairing controls, an optical sensor cutout, and gliding feet. Logitech added button dampening to keep click noise down, which makes the mouse workable in quiet offices and libraries.
Comfort and daily use
The Mobi Fold’s geometric profile is the compromise you accept for that level of compactness. There’s no thumb rest or support for the pinky, so longer work sessions can become uncomfortable. It works better as a task-specific tool, pulled out for navigation rather than used all day.
The touchpad scroll strip functions well enough, though it doesn’t match the smoothness of a physical scroll wheel. It does outperform most laptop trackpads, which is the right benchmark for what this device replaces.
The ambidextrous design suits left-handed users. Travel mice commonly default to right-hand-only ergonomics, leaving that group underserved.
Battery performance
Logitech rates the Mobi Fold at 30 days per charge. After two and a half weeks of intermittent use, the review unit still showed over 70 percent battery remaining. Quick-charge performance holds up: one minute of charging delivers 22 hours of additional runtime, confirmed during testing at 70-80 percent in 60 seconds.
Price and competition
At $80, the Logitech Mobi Fold competes directly against Logitech’s own MX Anywhere 3S, priced at $90. The MX Anywhere 3S is slightly larger but brings a MagSpeed electromagnetic scroll wheel, additional programmable buttons, better hand support, and longer battery life. For most users, the $10 difference is straightforward to justify.
Logitech also charges an extra $10 for a dedicated wireless USB dongle, pushing the effective price toward $90 for buyers who need it.
Verdict
The Logitech Mobi Fold does exactly what it promises: it folds flat, connects via Bluetooth without setup friction, and recharges quickly. For travelers who want the smallest possible mouse and accept the comfort trade-offs, it earns its place. Those who need comfort for extended use, or who rely on scroll precision, will find the MX Anywhere 3S a better match.
