Lightweight Excellence
Logitech has been making great wireless gaming mice for years, culminating in the near-perfect Logitech G900 Chaos Spectrum. The company went all out with his G900, which features an eye-catching design, interchangeable sides, and an abundance of buttons. But let’s assume you’re expecting the exact opposite of a wireless gaming mouse.
Smooth, simple and light. For $127.94, you can invest in the Logitech G Pro Wireless Mouse today.
The G Pro Wireless looks and feels the exact opposite of the G900, but performs just as well. This small, slim mouse offers impeccable wireless performance and best-in-class sensors, but with a simple, minimalist design that doesn’t add a lot of weight. In fact, the mouse is surprisingly light. Although, the same features that make the G Pro Wireless attractive to tournament gamers can make it a difficult sell for those just looking for a solid wireless mouse.
PRO: Design
- Slick design – At 4.92 x 2.50 x 1.57 inches, the G Pro Wireless is relatively small, but big enough to comfortably hold in your palm or fingernail. The mouse is a fully ambidextrous design and comes standard with a left button, a right button, a clickable scroll wheel, and two thumb buttons on each side.
- Lightweight – What sets the G Pro Wireless apart from the competition is its incredibly light weight. 2.82 ounces (80 grams). The difference is noticeable when compared to the 3.77 oz (107 g) G900 or 3.14 oz (89 g) Logitech G603.
- Suitable for lefthanded users – G Pro Wireless can have anywhere from 0 to 4 thumb buttons and changing configurations takes no more than 30 seconds.
PRO: Useful Software, outstanding battery life
- The software works well and you can control and customise quiet a few features of the G Pro Wireless. You can customize DPI levels, key commands, and RGB lighting across the mouse.
- Logitech estimates that the mouse will last 40-50 hours on a single charge, depending on your lighting profile. The included long braided cable allows you to play while charging and wireless reception seems perfect.
- It mouse moves quickly and accurately.
CON: Divisive DPI button placement
- Although, the G Pro Wireless has a DPI button, it is not located where you’d expect it: Instead of placing it above the right button or below the scroll wheel (the two common places for DPI buttons), Logitech has this placed to the bottom of the mouse.
CON: Pricey
- A bit expensive for the everyday user compared to alternatives such as the G603 or G305.
Where to buy the Logitech G Pro in Australia
Whether the G Pro Wireless is better or worse than any other gaming mouse is largely a matter of taste. The G Pro Wireless is incredibly light and definitely slimmer than comparable peripherals. Of course, as a Logitech mouse it works very well.
Everyday gamers will be fine with something cheaper like the aforementioned G603 and G305. But for those looking to hit the tournament scene, the G Pro Wireless is worth a look. Before you purchase this, make sure the G900 doesn’t suit you.
