Logitech CEO lays out the potential future of the mouse and keyboard. Logitech is working on a forever mouse that has a subscription-based model.

During a recent episode of The Verge’s Decoder podcast, Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber shed some possible insight into the company’s view on one of its most important products. Saying that “the mouse built this house,” Faber shares the planning behind a Forever Mouse, a premium product that the company hopes will be the last you ever have to buy. There’s also a discussion about a subscription-based service and a deeper focus on AI.

For now, details on a Forever Mouse are thin, but you better believe there will be a catch. The Instant Pot was a product so good that customers rarely needed to buy another one. The company went bankrupt.

    Who here uses the vendor supplied software with their mouse?

    In my experience it’s almost entirely useless, except for remapping buttons maybe.

      Buttons mapping is the exact reason to use the software. There are only a rare few models that fulfill my requirements for a mouse… Currently I’m using a Razer, the software is heavy, clunky and obnoxious, yet I need it to properly function.This is also unfortunately one of the main obstacles for me to switch to Linux, because it’s not supported.
