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

While the ergonomics take a little bit of getting used to for a right-handed user, the benefit of having all of the buttons on top make this the best gaming mouse for playing PUBG. Its light, its accurate, and with the Logitech gaming software, its a breeze to program each button. I use the top left buttons for switching between my primary and secondary guns. I use the top right buttons for leaning left and right. I use the top middle button as a map toggle, and the button just below that one as toggle for the mini-map size. For all of you PUBG addicts out there, I can recommend this mouse without hesitation.

This is a good gaming mouse with some good qualities. It has a long wire which is good for a desktop gaming setup but with a laptop it can be a little weird. A mouse bungee will fix this for just a standard weight you can put on top of the wire (I use a stapler and that works great). The mouse is lightweight which is nice, the mouse has a lot of plastic which makes it feel cheap but to keep it light they had to do it, so I cannot blame Logitech for this. It was dpi up to about 2500 which is much more than anyone can feasibly use so this is fine. The software is useful and helps a lot. The game detection is nice so you can have different key binds and DPIs for different games without having to manually switch it. For the price it is good. The lights are nice, it would be great if they automatically changed colors and had a breathing effect but that is not a big deal to me. If I were looking for a good entry level mouse this is great for that but more serious gamers may want a wireless mouse with weights.

So when gaming I mouse with my left hand and when my Razer Taipan (Ambidextrous) started acting up after years of loyal service, I thought I would given something new a try. The issue I always had with the Razer was that regardless of which hand you use, 2 of buttons are on the pinky side and really got in the way more than they helped. This mouse with all buttons on top gives access to every button regardless of hand being used. Right off the bat, the quality of the build and the material being used is nothing close to the Razer, however the build on this mouse is consistent with a $20ish dollar mouse. No much weight, thin non reinforced chord, more plasticy feel. I am still getting used to the button layout. I like having access to all 4 buttons accessible, but I miss the intuitive availability of buttons I can press with thumb. I am also having to get used to the smaller size of the mouse altogether and find it can cramp my hand. The software suite installs easy enough and gives you good control over the button map, colors, sensitivity. Overall it seems to track well and buttons respond accurately. Its not a bad mouse for the money, but I think I am just used to a more quality unit and will probably return to something higher end.

I love it. Well built, looks cool (you can change the LED colors to your liking, including turning them off), buttons work great, but whats a real standout is the software is EXCELLENT on MacOS and highly configurable on a per app basis. You can customize all 9 buttons and can toggle 3 configurations giving you 15-20 button options per app (youll keep the L and R clicks and 1 button to act as the toggle, then the rest is left to you!). Im a creator, and having custom buttons for common Photoshop and 3D app keys and menus is pretty awesome. Played a bit of OG Doom with it, I can see the usefulness in dynamically setting your DPI (sensitivity/response) while playing... could be useful for purposeful work too, well see. I rock a Wacom pen on my right hand, and this mouse on my left.. its good for balance, offsets fatigue/carpal tunnel/tennis elbow like issues. The quality and experience surpasses the price, a must buy if youve got an ordinary mouse and want to go to the next level.

EDIT: Updated to 2 stars because I found a workaround. I was able to use an OLD laptop (8 year old MacBook that doesnt have the newest OS) which could run the outdated Logitech Gaming Software to be able to program the buttons. After I set it, I could use the mouse on my current laptop so at least the buttons have functions. Would not be able to change the buttons unless I went back the the old laptop to reset it but of course that is inconvenient and unlikely to happen. Sad Logitech considers this mouse obsolete. Its really their best one and I really wished they would allow it to work on GHub. === 1 star. This is actually my favorite mouse and I used one for many years. It stopped working so I replaced with the G502 Hero. The G502 is great except the scrolling is terrible, constantly over-scrolling. I saw the G300s was available and purchased right away. The problem is that this mouse does not use the GHub software. You have to download the OLD software - Logitech Gaming Software in order to use it and program the keys. This program is outdated and will not run on any newer Macs. Logitech claims this is an obsolete mouse which is why there is no support. Trying to figure out a way to get it to work but if its not possible, I will return it.

EDITED Review Initial Impressions on unboxing were that this mouse had lots of nice features in the form of its many programmable keys & colors, but also that it was an ergonomic nightmare. The G300 is the size of a travel mouse. Unless this is for a child, or individual with Tiny and Delicate hands - Just Pass on the G300. Now, after using this mouse for a couple of weeks, I am having wrist and elbow discomfort that Ive NEVER experienced from a mouse before. The G300 small size is a Big Deal, since you cannot comfortably rest your palm on the mouse. To use the mouse requires resting the heel of your hand on the mouse pad, with wrist angled upward, so that arched fingertips can use the buttons. If I rest my palm on the mouse, my fingers overhang the end and are on the cord and mouse pad. YES, the Logitech G300 is that small. Even using an elevated wrist rest does little to improve the situation. Keep reading.... To add insult to injury, the RGB colors WILL NOT SAVE in the Logitech Gaming Software. Despite saving the profile, each time you reboot, the mouse reverts back to original colors. Custom programmed buttons do just fine, but the LGS software is bugged regarding the RGB save - just sad. In my case, this was money wasted on an inferior product - YMMV. Other Thoughts - While this Logitech G300 mouse is Sold & Shipped by Amazon, Take a moment to read the Legal Disclaimer under Important Information on the Sales page right before Q&A and Reviews. The Legal Disclaimer is hilarious due to being so poorly written. The grammar and irrelevant content is everything weve come to expect from non-English speakers selling on E*Bay. blah blah blah feed my children, blah blah lose jobs, blah crimes against persons, and finally PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM ME - LOL City !!!

Config is similar to other far more expensive Logitec gaming mice that Ive owned. Its light but probably has weights at bottom so very solid / hefty feel low center of gravity The price went up after I bought when I thought about buying a couple more as gift. It is very ergonomic and works with left hands. button action very positive. ALT button outside normal finger position but close. Chip inside does comparable resolution and Sampling rate to 15 yo top end laser mice. Sliding surface is thick, slippery. Cord is slippery so drag isnt an issue. The weak points, furthest ring finger is a reach for me in my fav postion, button config app does Everything so Id rather have complex setup with easy to swap configs for desktop painting/cad apps.

I do like this item

We received this gaming mouse and package was prefect. No damage at all. I had order two of them because I have twin boys who are 11 years old. They are into gaming just like their dad. When the boys open the package they loved the looks and feel of this mouse. They connected it to the computer and it works perfectly no problems at all. They went to settings and fixed the nine bottoms for them and their gaming they play. Now it was very easy for 11 year old, I think just about anyone can handle this mouse. When my husband seen this mouse and how it felt plus worked I have to reorder another one for him. I would highly recommend this product for the value and easy to use to everyone. We love this product very much!

The mouse is relatively comfortable even in my giant hands, and as a leftie, and certainly does its job well. If I was to utilize the extra buttons on it, Id like it FAR more than the usual gaming mouses buttons, as theyre placed differently, and their location is FAR superior in that it is far less likely for me to accidentally bump them while using it. Ive had a more classically laid out gaming mouse, and could not stand where the buttons were placed because I would constantly bump them. All in all, its a good mouse, especially so if youre looking for a cheaper priced gaming mouse. Id certainly say to give it a go if youre on the hunt for a new moose. Er... louse? House... no no thats not right... AH WELL, you get the point haha
