The Logitech M350 Pebble is so far the best mouse that I have used, and I have used a lot of mouse in my 30 years of existence.
I like it because it is wireless, lightweight, quiet, responds well and does not have ribs in the scroll bar. I can use the mouse the whole day without my hands or fingers getting numb.
Also, it has been a year since I bought the mouse and I have not even changed the battery yet.
When I first bought the Logitech M350 Pebble I got confused because it says that it has Bluetooth connection. But when I saw the wireless USB dongle, I thought I got tricked. As it turns out this mouse has both – a (1) wireless USB dongle mode and a (2) Bluetooth mode.
The nice thing about the Logitech Pebble mouse is that you can switch between the 2 modes with a press of a button underneath the mouse.
Below are instructions on how you can connect the Logitech M350 Pebble mouse to Windows 11 using the wireless USB dongle and using Bluetooth.
Make sure the Logitech mouse is turned On
Before following the instructions below make sure that the Logitech Pebble is turned on by moving the On/Off Switch to the ON position.

Notes on different connection modes of Logitech M350 Pebble
The advantage of using the Wireless USB Dongle is that it is the fastest way to connect the Logitech M350 mouse to Windows. The disadvantage is that the USB Dongle sticks out of my laptop chassis, this might get hit when I am moving and may damage the dongle or the laptop.
Another disadvantage of the USB Dongle is that I sometimes forget that it is attached to my laptop 1, when I am in a hurry and bring laptop 2.
The advantage of using a Bluetooth connection is that I do not have any additional hardware sticking out of my laptop. The disadvantage is that it takes a few seconds for it to connect on startup or sometimes it does not connect at all, but turning off and on the mouse will solve this issue. It also takes time to setup the Bluetooth pairing, but once it has been set then the mouse will automatically connect to your Windows 11 computer.
I use the mouse in 2 different computers and switch between them with a single press of the button underneath the mouse.
I hope the above step-by-step tutorial helped you connect the Logitech M350 Pebble to your Windows laptop or desktop.
