I'm not sure why Logitech decided to introduce yet another new standard for their wireless peripherals. It seems you cannot use older Logitech devices that connected through "Unifying" receivers on the new Bolt receivers. Maybe there are some benefits. I was hoping to use it for my two different Bolt-connected mice I got from work and also purchase a wireless headset for my work laptop, but apparently there are no wireless headsets they connect to this Bolt standard. At least not yet.

That wireless mouse is most likely using one of the several receiver standards from Logitech. Bolt is not reverse compatible with their Unifying receivers.

I have a Logitech wireless mouse that's missing the USB dongle...

Can I use this as a replacement dongle and sync with my old mouse?

you could try something like this https://www.amazon.com/Transfer-Converter-Connector-Compatible-Accessories/dp/B0F914JCPG/ref=sr_1_6?... [amazon.com]


or a USB-C hub. But i do understand the implied limitations

Depends on the model of mouse. Some of them use this new Bolt dongle and some of them use an older Unifying dongle. Those can be reprogrammed to sync to another mouse or keyboard. Some use an older basic dongle that can't be reprogrammed at all which sucks as it basically turns your mouse into a brick if you lose it.

It's $15 from Logitech, and $13.50 from Amazon.

Unified is 2.4Ghz RF based that's often interfered by environmental signals.
Bolt is Bluetooth based that's less interfered. besides it's more responsive & less power consumption compared to Unified.

Bluetooth is still 2.4Ghz and still has lots of interference.

Same, this has been long going as they move their products to the Bolt platform. Just recently purchased a basic Pop keyboard replacing my MX master as just wanted something simple that didn't take up as much room.

It's a shame as the keyboard didn't include it and I have multiple unifying receivers around the house; but not a single bolt.

Glad this deal is around, but yeah, Logitech wants more money. I also love how their mice slowly but surely disintegrate with the rubber just turning gunky.Thanks for posting this OP! Need at least few of these as the bolt will be around until Logitech tries to do something different.

When I bought my MX four master mouse, it came with a USB-c bolt dongle But there are just still too little USB-C connections, motherboard, and regular PC devices

Can you elaborate on what the obvious reason is? IMO, the "obvious" reason is to make more money using methods that are anti-consumer. But instead of sticking with that and moving on, I decided to take 5-10 minutes to look into it.

Logitech Bolt receivers provide an encrypted connection and are highly proprietary. However, devices that can utilize Logitech Bolt connections don't appear to be restricted to just the proprietary Bolt USB adapters. Based on what I'm finding, most Bolt devices can also pair directly with any standard Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) host. Examples would be a laptop's built-in Bluetooth and a generic BLE dongle. They're built on BLE 5.0+ and are backward-compatible with BLE 4.0 hosts.

The internet can lie, so I apologize if I'm spreading any misinformation. But it sounds like you were implying that Logitech adopted Bolt out of greed and at the users' expense. And from what I've read, it's the opposite. Bolt provides both an easy, plug-and-play option along with the ability to use standard hardware and ignore USB dongles all together.
