Logitech Amps Up the Fun with the 2016 Party Collection

Logitech invites you to bring the party to your computer with the introduction of the 2016 Party Collection. Inspired by the '80s Memphis style of design that emphasizes bright, contrasting colors and graphic patterns, the festive Party Collection is an over-the-top mash-up of favorite things including watermelon, flamingos, popsicles and other energetic patterns.

A collection of bold patterns and colors brings a touch of whimsy to the Logitech M325C Wireless Mouse and the Logitech M317C Wireless Mouse designs. These wireless mice reflect the fun, boundary-pushing attitude of today's pop culture.
"This year, anything goes and everyone is invited to the party," said Anatoliy Polyanker, global portfolio and brand director for Logitech. "The 2016 Party Collection mice are designed to brighten up any task. We took all of your favorite things and mixed them together to create a wacky and unexpected mash-up that is on-trend and inspires individual expression."

The fun and functional 2016 Party Collection mice last up to 18 months on a single battery. Navigate smoothly and easily through web pages or documents with the comfortable scroll wheel, whether you use Windows, Mac OS, Chrome OS or Linux. The nano USB receiver allows you to roam up to 33 feet away.

The thing with logitech is there is just too much competition and while they were a very strong brand back in 2000, they dont seem to have risen beyond that. Razer peripherals seem to be dominating the gaming market. They are involved in just about every gaming tournament there is and their name gets out there because they also sponsor a shit load of gamers.

Where has logitech gone? Absolutely nowhere. They do have some good products though. I own a G502 and G700s and they are fabulous

Logitech still has some decent high-end devices, but their mainstream product line has gone to sh#t: very recently I've been looking for a cheap multimedia keyboard w/ touchpad for my mini-server, and at my price level Logitech looks like a kid's toy comparing to much cheaper Genius or once unknown Rapoo. Still bought a used K400, but now I'm thinking about moving on to something different: probably Rapoo E9090p (with wireless charging dock).

I used to be a Logitech fan, but today I am simply not motivated to buy anything new from them...

P.S. My desktop still features a beat-up/scratched/scuffed and dirty Logitech G5, and my younger brother still uses my old G9+G15. MX3000 wireless combo finally gave up 2 years ago(after 5+ years of service), and my Harmony remote is still operational after 6 years.

Also... Mechanical Keyboards have exploded onto the scene, My last ever logitech keyboard was a 'illuminated' aka K740 and i absolutely loved it - My dad now uses it while the MX3000 K&M setups i used a long time ago back when BF2 was in full swing got sold on to a friend of mine who still uses it. While Logitech do have mechanical keyboards on the market they were extremely late to the party and way overpriced.

I agree about the brand strenth. And if it translates into more sales, its sad. I would think the "gamer" market would be more technical than that when making purshasing decisions. Every logitech product I owned was great and still works. Razer stuff malfuncion even in tournaments.

Even the Z906 weren't all that. I guess Logitech have simply thrown in the towel regarding surround speakers.

If you really think about it, its like Logitech took a big step back -- Remember the days where they were a sizable player in the PC audio market? Good speakers and gaming headsets that absolutely used to own or talk about to some extent. These days nobody even talks about it anymore. Logitech have speakers & gaming headsets but I dont know anyone in my circle of friends who has bought one in the last 10-15 years. I do see loads of them with the generic cheapo logitech headsets for skype though

I have bad experience with Logitech mouses. Coil whines, buttons fails, sensor fails, enough is enough. The speakers and FF wheels/pedals are good, but not something to tell the nephews...

Well as you know people have different experiences, after 3-4 razer mouses and 2 SS mouses there is some thing that the G700s has done how ever dodgy those 3 top buttons are and that's keep working longer than any of those mouses.

As for speakers they may keep working but they suck anyways, logitech wheels used to be good back when they used steel shafts but they changed that many years ago, when it became loose you just had to tighten the metal nut up again now if your lucky it's a metal shaft with a plastic nut.

You might be able to spend $300+ to get it but when they used to be made right they were a mere $120.
