Logitech Wireless Presenter R500s, PowerPoint Clicker with Laser Pointer, Wireless Presentation Clicker Remote

Great presentation remote. It works well and is very responsive. It's plug and play. It has a good range and only needs one battery. I like that the receiver stores easily within the remote. The laser pointer is nice, but if you're wanting to point at a monitor (instead of a projector screen), you'll probably need a green laser.

Bought this because a presenter was insistent that he control his own slides for a banquet and we didn't have a method to put a laptop on the stage. Using a USB extension cable we got the receiver above the heads of the audience, and the presenter had no problems controlling his show from the stage 50' feet away. Also, although Powerpoint/Keynote is the usual use for such a controller, we used it to control ProPresenter with no issues. The presenter never used the laser pointer, so I can't speak to that functionality. I specifically bought this dual mode (USB/Bluetooth) so that I could also use it with IBooks on my IPad. That functionality is just great, and now I can run on the treadmill and turn pages in my book without taking my hands off the handles.

I bought this because I was scheduled to speak at an international event & the event host said they did not have a handheld way to advance the slides, but I was welcome to recruit someone at the event. Saying, "next slide" over and over was simply not going to work for me. My speech coach suggested this specific product and I could not be happier. It is super basic and super simple to operate. The USB dongle stows in the clicker & I just plugged it into my laptop & I was ready to start advancing slides. If you plan to use someone else's computer & bring your slides on a thumb drive, make sure the host computer has 2 USB slots - one for the presentation and one for the dongle. I think it can also work via bluetooth, but I did not use that functionality. 100% recommend! Edit: The only negative is that the built-in laser pointer only shows up on old fashioned screens, not on LED screens. I maintain my 5 star rating, but more & more venues use LED big screens. I don't even know if there are pointers that work on them.

I recently used the Logitech Wireless Presenter R500 for a Zoom presentation and absolutely loved it. It connected seamlessly and made advancing my slides completely stress-free, letting me focus on my delivery instead of the tech. I didn’t end up needing the laser pointer for a virtual talk, but the remote itself fit perfectly in my hand and felt very natural to use. The compact, low-profile design also meant it was barely noticeable on camera, which I really appreciated. Overall, it’s a simple, reliable presenter that I’d happily use again and recommend to others.

So comfortable to hold it!! Works well and like the design of connector attached

I have a presentation with slides on a big screen. I have it on my IPAD. I needed a slide changing device to show my slides. You do have to buy an adapter to connect the R500 USB to the iPad. I have tested the R500 many times now and it works great; as represented. It is very simple to operate. I would like the instructions to be more clear about how to sink it and how to turn it off at the end. I had to sink it several times before it would stay on, which is me not doing something correct; not the R500. Also, I could never find out how to shut it off so I just remove the battery. I worry that it may go off on its own, but for an hour presentation that has 10 -15 minutes of inactivity I don’t want it to go off in the middle of my talk. That is a fear, not a fact; but that should be addressed in the minimum instructions. I trust LOGITECH brand so I will have to figure it out; but the above info would be helpful. Roger of Orlando

Excellent, simple remote for a very reasonable price.

The newer design (with the big forward button in the center) is the best inexpensive clicker I've used. The design is good with the one big button (some speakers get confused with a lot of small buttons when they are nervous and the simple layout helps). Also, a big plus, no on/off switch and the battery lasts a long time. It says a year and I believe it. Older versions go dead if they get left on.

Really satisfied with this remote. Opted for the 3-button version and love the large advance button in the middle: easy to feel for it while presenting without looking down. I primarily use it from about 40 ft from where the USB sensor is plugged into the computer and it works really well.

3 buttons (laser, forward, and backward). Comes with a Duracell battery inside. Worked well without any flaw.

Muito bom! Todo professor devia ter. Foi super compatível com meu MacBook.

Original product, works great. Thanks

Good product as expected
