Logitech G300s Optical Ambidextrous Gaming Mouse – 9 Programmable Buttons, Onboard Memory

Excellent mouse, especially for the price. That it has a 'pinched' body makes all of the buttons easy to use. I previously owned (well still own) a much more expensive logitech gaming mouse (g700s) and the layout of the mouse and placement of the buttons made almost all of them unusable. With the pinched design, you can freely move your index and middle fingers around to any of the top buttons very easily and intuitively.works extremely well with the g13 lefthand gamepad. The automatic game detecting settings work for both devices at the same time, and both devices share the set of per-game 'functions', so you can assign them to gamepad or mouse buttons very easily, and move them around at will.None of the buttons are dedicated to specific functions like switching profiles or DPI (or even mouse clicks/scrolling) so you can get really creative with how you configure this thing.The actuation force of all of the buttons (and the scroll wheel) are extremely low but also satisfyingly tactile, so you get an appropriate amount of feedback without requiring stressful contortions to get enough leverage to engage the buttons. I wear a 'large' sized glove (which is average/small for men) and the distance and spacing between buttons is perfect for my hand geometry.In my opinions, this sort of button configuration is optimal for both gaming and productivity. When you want it to be a regular mouse, all of the extra functionality is out of the way, when you want to take advantage of the extra buttons, they are within reach and actuating them accurately is not difficult.Best mouse I have ever owned, and one of the cheapest too!

I bought this to replace my Logitech G600 Logitech G600 MMO Gaming Mouse, Black. While I loved the versatility of that mouse, I found the shape to be an ergonomic nightmare. My thumb had become scared of the keypad and had become complacent with dragging itself across my mousepad, my pinky couldn't get comfortable so ended up curling up against my ring finger and, while useful, the sheer number of button configuration options led to their disuse due to not remembering how they were configured ; it was time for a new one.I never found myself using the extreme resolution of the G600 (8200 dpi); I always kept it set around 2250 with shifts of lesser values. And, as mentioned, I no longer needed 492 quadrillion buttons - just a few would do. The major pain points of the G600 were the lack of ergonomic design and the weight. I wanted my new mouse to be lighter and something I could actually rest my hand on without accommodating yet another button or odd angle.I got everything I wanted in the G300s. While I guess it's technically a downgrade from the G600, I don't feel that way in the slightest. The mouse is light, has great resolution, slides effortlessly and has the support of the same Logitech Gaming Software. It supports the same number of modes as the G600, three, and, while it doesn't allow for the same lighting "effects" (pulse and cycle), it does allow you to change the LED color for each mode. The buttons are in the perfect spots - out of the way of primary usage areas but within quick reach.An added bonus was that I found this mouse seemed to work better with the Logitech software than my G600 did. With the G600, I would often find that my onboard profile had reset or that I was unable to store particular settings (they would revert after leaving the configuration page). This could have been an issue with my particular G600, but, regardless, I've had none of these issues in configuring the G300S.If you've been using a heftier mouse and have been looking for something a little lighter, and you don't find yourself needing a DPI over 2,500, definitely give this one a shot. If you're just someone looking for an upgrade to your existing conventional mouse, then, by all means, look no further. This is a great mouse for the price point and gives you access to some high-end features without necessitating complexity.

Well, if you are on a budget or you just dont want to waste +50$ on a mouse, this one is probably worth to consideration. At arrival, the box was misleadingly small, but this is actually alright because the mouse size is average; not to large, nor small. Factually, is around 12 cm large and 7.5 cm wide.It feels solid, the plastics and rubber materials feel decently crafted; the buttons also feel alright. Ergonomics is not the strong point, but as many things, is about getting used to it. My main problem with this mouse was actually not the hardware, rather the software. Upon testing in my PS4 console, the mouse was already key-binded with some weird random combinations. So after learning about the build-in memory i decided to look for Logitech software on this mouse. The research was a little disappointing due to broken links or poor guidance on the website or printed guides in the box.I am not sure if the links have been fix by now but i must thank some Reddit guys for sharing the latest functional version of the Logitech Gaming Software in a thread. This LGS is the application you'll need to install on your computer to modify the mouse keys as desired, perhaps not the only one you can use.Simply explained, there are 3 different profiles you can edit in the mouse (8 colors for them), this means that you dont actually have just 4 new buttons compared from a regular mouse, rather 12 possible buttons combinations if you tweak the settings correctly. I would recommend keeping the 2 buttons in the center for DPI swap and profile swap, but they are also moddable.Another small drawback was the fact the buttons did not had a function on their own (MB4+MB5+MB6...), they need to be bind with a logical key combination on your keyboard. - At least on my testing.In recap, the product is good and looks good but you might need to invest a little bit of time to make it to work just as you desire it to work on the games you want to play, but nothing too bad at all. The Logitech sticker was also a nice marketing little detail.
