Speaking of the extra buttons, it’s a mild bummer that there are only two of them. (Lefties could probably use it since it’s almost perfectly symmetrical, but that would put the two extra buttons on the pinky side.) Its size and shape are just right for most hands, although it’s not technically an ambidextrous mouse. Tiny people and giants both love the G305. If there truly is a causal connection there, it would be pretty weird, because 25% battery isn’t even that low-you still have ~60 hours of life left at that point. However, when the battery starts to get low (around 25% or so), the mouse’s otherwise infrequent connectivity issues seem to become a little more common.

The G305’s 1ms response time and 400 IPS tracking rate are definitely within the “awesome” performance tier, and its 12,000 CPI/DPI earns a silver medal (at least).Ī single AA battery powers the G305 for about 250 hours, which is, again, far above average for wireless mice. Given that bottom-of-the-barrel wireless mice start around $20, Logitech’s ability to pack actual gaming-grade specs into a $50 mouse is pretty impressive. If you want a wireless mouse for under $50, you no longer have to settle for digging through the clearance bin at your local office store. Nice balance of features, especially for the price.Only the so-so side buttons temper our otherwise glowing enthusiasm for this mouse. We don’t even consider the price a true drawback, but we realize that it may be more than some gamers are willing to spend. The Logitech G Pro Wireless is a pretty expensive piece of hardware at $135, but you’re getting a lot of tech for the money it might even be the best FPS mouse out there. Several Amazon reviewers complain that the side buttons are so small and shallow that they’re hard to actuate with your pinky, so you might as well just ditch them. That’s a good thing because, for some people, the side buttons are positioned pretty awkwardly, especially on the non-thumb side. There are four bonus buttons-two on each side-and both sets can be removed and replaced with plugs if you don’t want buttons there. Plenty of gaming mice offer lots of extra buttons, but the G Pro Wireless is the only one we’ve seen so far that actually lets you remove some of them. Provided you charge it up every night, there’s no conceivable reason you should ever have battery issues. It charges quickly, too-from dead to full in about four hours. It can go 50+ hours on a single charge, and that’s with the polling rate and RGB lighting both cranked up to maximum. The G Pro Wireless also has outstanding battery life.
