    I game a lot, specifically Valorant where aim is incredibly important. I used to have this $9 mouse that I gamed with and I thought for the longest time that my aim was just because I was bad at the game. But once I realized that maybe it wasn’t and got this mouse, my gaming life changed. This mouse is so good, the reactivity and responsiveness of it is super nice. There are other gaming mice out there for like $100 but get this one because it’s half the price and just as good. You can change the DPI right on the mouse on the top button and there are 4 options. It runs so smoothly it’s so beautiful every time I get headtaps in my game. The battery life of it is also really good. I’ve had the same battery in it for like 3 months and it works just fine. It goes to sleep and then when you shake it, it comes to life. The material itself is nice, it’s smooth and the grip is good. There’s also buttons on the left side you can use. I’m so glad I got this mouse because now I don’t have to curse myself for being trash at games when I’m actually not.

    I got one of these for my kiddo for her laptop because I wanted a budget gaming mouse. She loved it, but ended up needing a different mouse, so I ended up with it on my work PC. I loved it enough that when she wanted it back, I ordered her a new one and kept the old one. The weight and shape were so much better than the Logitech traditional business mice I was using.

    Pros:
    – Super easy to use. You can use the Logitech software to configure it, but you don’t need to, as you can save a profile and just use that, or just use the default profile that’s perfectly functional.
    – Great feeling scroll wheel – Too many scroll wheels are smaller, or rounded, or feel thin or just don’t catch. This is wide, flat, easy to find and hit, and not in the way when you don’t need it.
    – Works on all kinds of surfaces – The high end gaming sensor is accurate, but it also works on all kinds of surfaces, making it great for travel.
    – Comfortable to use – It’s lightweight, shaped well, and big enough for my huge hands while not being too big for smaller hands.
    – Great battery life – I think we’ve replaced the battery once or twice in 1.5 years of near daily use.
    – Reliable wireless – The adapter is reliable, and I’ve not had issues using the mouse at some distance.
    – Thumb buttons – I can’t stand mice without them. This has them, and they feel great and are positioned well.

    Cons:
    – No thumb or pinkie rest. It’s a smaller mouse, so no suprise, but it would be nice.
    – Logitech G Hub isn;t great if you want to customize things.

    Overall, a great mouse. Great value, and a solid entry level gaming mouse for anyone, but also great for work.

    I recently upgraded my gaming setup with the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. This mouse has been a game-changer in every sense of the word.

    Performance: ★★★★★

    The Hero 12K sensor with 12,000 DPI on the Logitech G305 is a gaming enthusiast’s dream come true. It provides impeccable precision and responsiveness, which is crucial in intense gaming situations. Whether you’re into first-person shooters or real-time strategy games, this mouse delivers exceptional performance. The LIGHTSPEED wireless technology ensures minimal lag, making it feel as responsive as a wired mouse.

    Design: ★★★★★

    The G305’s design is simple and elegant. It’s lightweight, which is a significant advantage for extended gaming sessions. The ambidextrous shape fits comfortably in both left and right hands, and the textured grip ensures a secure hold. The six programmable buttons are conveniently placed and have a satisfying click to them.

    Wireless Technology: ★★★★★

    I was initially skeptical about using a wireless mouse for gaming, fearing latency issues. However, the LIGHTSPEED wireless technology on the G305 completely eliminates those concerns. It’s fast, reliable, and I’ve never experienced any noticeable delay during gaming. Plus, the battery life is outstanding, so I don’t have to worry about frequent recharging.

    Value for Money: ★★★★★

    The Logitech G305 offers incredible value for its price. You’re getting high-end gaming performance without breaking the bank. It’s an excellent choice for both casual and competitive gamers who want top-notch performance without the premium price tag.

    In summary, the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse is a brilliant addition to any gamer’s arsenal. It excels in performance, design, and wireless technology, all at an affordable price point.

Whether you’re sniping enemies or commanding armies, this mouse will take your gaming experience to the next level. I highly recommend it to gamers of all levels.

    Se lo compré a mi novia porque ella no tenía un mouse con buena precisión para juegos o edición digital. Estamos muy contentos con el producto, especialmente con su desempeño aún siendo inalámbrico. El tamaño es pequeño y por ello se ajusta más a manos pequeñas y medianas. Los materiales se sienten de buena calidad pero no premium, aunque por el costo me parece excelente valor precio/calidad.

    Lo recomiendo si quieren un mouse de marca confiable, a buen precio, con excelente sensor y si lo quieren inalámbrico. No estoy seguro si trae la función de “emparejar” el mouse con un nuevo receptor Logitech, así que cuídenlo bastante.

    ¡Recomendado!

    I rated 5/5 because I think what you get for the money is good, not because it’s perfect (at the time of writing I paid $30 including shipping). I’m going to rate the aspects important to me in a mouse on a scale of 10 and give a brief description why, as someone who games competitively.

    Shape/Form: 9/10
    Medium-size form factor. Nothing innovative here but it doesn’t have to be. It’s comfortable to use and cups in the palm nicely.

    Weight: 8/10
    I’m still not sure if there’s a point where a mouse can be TOO light. I personally haven’t found that point yet. I’ve used lighter mice than this and didn’t notice much of a difference. I don’t feel any extra fatigue using this one. Make no mistake though, this is a light mouse.

    Buttons: 9/10
    It’s not loaded with a bunch of extra buttons and I like that. Buttons are what a keyboard is for, not a mouse. That said it has robust mapping options in the software for the buttons it does have. I don’t do any special mappings but it’s nice the option’s there. I had to dock a point for the left and right click. I find the pressure threshold for clicking is TOO sensitive, to the point the mere gravity of my finger resting on the buttons engages a click. This resulted in me needing to permanently flex back my index and ring fingers so they wouldn’t trigger clicks. As a result I had to fold up a little piece of paper and slide it under the corners of the buttons to increase the pressure.. This was an easy hack so it doesn’t really bother me. It would be nice to have some mechanism to adjust click pressure in future models though.

    Wireless: 8/10
    The reception is good, it feels about as responsive as a wired mouse. I’ll only very occasionally get some response stalling for a 1/4 cm of movement of the mouse before it registers. And this only seems to happen if the cursor sits in the same position for a prolonged period of time. You also have to use a special dongle. It’s not the end of the world and I understand it’s for better performance, but it takes up another slot in your usb real estate and it would be nicer if I could use 1 dongle for all my peripherals instead of 2.

    DPI: 8/10
    This thing advertises 12K DPI and I bought it as a replacement for their 1K DPI standard logi mouse I got for $20. I have no way to test this but it doesn’t feel 12x faster. At max settings it feels 2x faster or AT MOST 3x. Now it could be some of this dpi is being used for smoother transitions between points of movement and it does feel smoother and less choppy than the $20 logi. It’s max speed setting is pretty good though. It’s hard to imagine you’d want much faster than this. It could still be smoother though and if it is indeed 12K dpi as advertised then I could imagine even higher dpi’s could be beneficial for the most elite levels of gaming. I think I’d prefere just a touch more sensitivity myself but this is very usable for competitive gaming and I think this would meet the demands of 99.9% of gamers.

    Closing Thoughts:
    Good mouse for the money. In the consumer electronics space in general I’d like to see some independent labs open up to test these electronics and confirm their claims of performance. I think logitech is a reputable company and I’m inclined to trust this mouse wields 12K dpi, but how could I ever confirm this? The residential electronics market has already solved this with the common UL (UnderwriterLabs) symbol marking system. This is a seal of quality and an independent confirmation of performance by an independent lab. This ensures reliable performance and protects the consumer against fraud. The current system we have for consumer electronics of relying on reviewers to write (potentially compromised) sponsored reviews is inadequate at this point. There are too many devices out there and the research expected of a single consumer to sift through this endless catalog is far too much.
