Logitech G G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse, HERO 12K, Black

I've been using the Logitech G203 for years as my go-to FPS gaming mouse, so I was a little hesitant about switching to the G305. Thankfully, it feels very similar, just without the wire! The only thing I noticed was that the G305 felt a bit palm-heavy with a standard AA battery. I used one of those AAA-to-AA adapters with a lithium AAA battery and it made a surprisingly big difference to the balance. Once I'd done that, it felt much better in the hand and was much more on par with the G203 in terms of weight. I've also noticed absolutely no additional latency or lag compared with a wired mouse, which was probably my biggest concern. It feels responsive and accurate for FPS gaming, just with the added freedom of not having a cable dragging across the desk. I've always liked Logitech's gaming mice and the G305 hasn't changed that. Great mouse, great software, and now I get the performance I want without the wire. I'd happily recommend it.

It's been the best mouse Ive had (I'm a 44 year old gamer). I bought it in 2020 and its kept up fine. Only recently started to have sensor and drop out issues. But its a bargain. I'm looking for something lighter to replace it, otherwise Id probably buy another one. With the AAA to AA plastic adapter, the weight is approx 89 g but you have to buy this separately. I'm now looking for something <50 g.

I've been using the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED for both gaming and everyday computer use, and it continues to impress me. It manages to deliver the performance of a premium gaming mouse without the premium price tag. The LIGHTSPEED wireless technology is the standout feature. The connection is incredibly responsive, and I honestly can't tell the difference between this and a wired gaming mouse. Whether playing fast-paced shooters or strategy games, tracking remains smooth and accurate with no noticeable lag or dropouts. The HERO sensor performs exceptionally well, providing precise movement and consistent tracking across a wide range of sensitivity settings. It's easy to customise the DPI to suit different games and tasks, making the mouse versatile for both gaming and productivity. Comfort is another strong point. The mouse has a simple, ergonomic shape that works well for extended gaming sessions. It's lightweight enough to move quickly but still feels solid and well-built in the hand. The buttons have a satisfying click, and the side buttons are positioned conveniently without being easy to press accidentally. Battery life is excellent. Using a single AA battery means you don't have to worry about charging cables, and it lasts much longer than I expected between replacements. Pros: Fast and reliable LIGHTSPEED wireless performance Accurate HERO sensor with excellent tracking Lightweight and comfortable design Outstanding battery life Responsive buttons and scroll wheel Great value for money Cons: Uses disposable batteries rather than a rechargeable battery No RGB lighting for those who prefer a more customisable gaming setup Overall, the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED is one of the best wireless gaming mice available in its price range. It delivers excellent performance, impressive battery life, and reliable wireless connectivity in a comfortable and lightweight package. Whether you're a casual gamer or a competitive player, it's an easy recommendation.

There's plenty to like about the G305, and most people who should be thinking of purchasing it already know what it offers: Logitech's in-house Hero sensor; a long battery life due to both the Hero sensor's low power draw and the higher-capacity removable batteries the G305 uses; and the general shape. Anybody familiar with the Logitech G203 or the G Pro mouse will already know whether they will enjoy this mouse, as the G305 is essentially a wireless remake of those two mouses (minus the RGB lighting, and a slightly different button below the scroll wheel, in addition to the buttons having slightly different switches). However - despite offering a great sensor and a familiar shape many enjoy - the G305 is not perfect. Logitech's Hero sensor, while great, is not the PWM3366 sensor, the top-of-the-line, inarguably best sensor on the market, which is found in Logitech's most high-end mouses, such as the G900 and G903, the G403 (both wired and wireless), and the G502. Due to the differing sensors, the feeling and DPI has to be adjusted when going (for example, from the wireless G403 to the G305 in my case) from one mouse to the other, though tracking overall is perfect with both. The great first impression (barring a difference in feeling that can be overcome with some tinkering with settings) from the G305, however, can be deceiving. A few days after getting the G305, I suffered an odd occurrence, wherein the mouse cursor - while playing Counter-Strike: Global Offensive - would start wobbling in the centre of the screen any time the mouse was lifted off the mouse pad. Additionally, for the few hours preceding this, the G305 would sometimes randomly spin out while I was aiming around with it. Surprisingly, however, taking out the battery and re-connecting the wireless receiver has fixed this issue for me, and since that day a few weeks ago, I have not suffered from spin-outs or any cursor wobbling. Due to the unreplicable (and thus far unrepeated) nature of the incident, I am not sure what to blame - or if it is even fair to deduct points for this - but it is something to keep in mind. Similar products that I have used before the G305 - which include the wireless G403, the G900 and the G502 (which are all mouses that use the PWM3366 sensor) - have never suffered from spin-outs even once, though this might have just been my luck. The scroll wheel has been great in my experience, and has a nice, squared shape, as opposed to the round scroll wheels that some mouses have. The wheel also has a pretty rough surface, with big, bold lines cut into the rubber to give it a nice, grippy feel. The only thing really missing from the scroll wheel is Logitech's hyper-scrolling mode, which would have been a nice addition to have. The software experience on the G305 is par for the course for a Logitech mouse. Customization is done through Logitech's Gaming Software program, which includes a Hi and Lo performance mode (going from 250 hours of usage up to months of usage without having to switch batteries), five different DPI level profiles that can be set, polling rate, custom binds for all of the buttons, the ability to switch between on-board memory and Automatic Game Detection, and various other functions that Logitech provides (including a heat map, binding keystrokes etc.). The experience, however, is not perfect. Other Logitech mouses (that use the PWM3366) give the user some extra features that are missing from the G305, most notably the ability to switch between "profiles", which let a user switch between modes where each "mode" has completely different bindings for all the buttons. On the G305, the only similar feature is limited to switching DPI levels. All in all, the G305 has presented some weird, infrequent issues that anybody might run into, but when it works, it works amazingly. For somebody looking for a light-weight (below 90g) wireless mouse that's on par with wired mouses, there really is no other option on the market right now, without having to do hardware modding (which carries with it its own risks and extra effort), as other wireless mouses are either heavy or have imperfect wireless technology (though I want to stress this is not the case with Logitech's wireless mouses). The only reasons not to get the G305 would perhaps include the fact that it is a small mouse with a very small hump, and anybody with big hands and/or a grip that isn't well-suited to small mice (such as a palm grip) might feel cramped with the G305. In addition, the mouse has kind of a lacklustre selection of buttons, with only the standard left and right clicks, a scroll wheel (which is clickable), a button below the scroll wheel, and two side buttons. Whether this is an issue is up to the individual user, but it is mostly meant to be used as a cursor moving device, not to double as a media controller. For anybody who desires a similar product with more options in regards to buttons, the Logitech G900 or the G903 might be more suitable. All in all, the G305 is terrific value. It is one of the cheapest ways to go wireless, with a sensor and wireless technology that will not make you miss wired mouses. Couple this with a great battery life that will take a minimum of weeks before it even bothers you about the battery getting low, and Logitech have a real winner on their hands. Fans of the G Pro should instantly jump on this with no regrets, and everybody else really only needs to make sure they like the shape, as everything else Logitech has packaged into this mouse is borderline perfect, as far as its function as a wireless mouse is concerned.

I’m extremely impressed with the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse and would happily give it five stars. It delivers excellent performance, reliability, and comfort, making it a fantastic choice for both gaming and everyday computer use. The wireless connection is incredibly responsive, with no noticeable lag or interruptions, providing the same dependable experience you would expect from a wired mouse. The HERO 12K sensor is a standout feature, offering precise and accurate tracking that works perfectly for fast-paced gaming, detailed tasks, and general browsing. The adjustable DPI settings make it easy to customise the sensitivity to suit different games and preferences. The mouse feels lightweight and comfortable in the hand, with a shape that works well for long gaming sessions without causing discomfort. Battery life is another major advantage, lasting for a long time before needing a replacement, which makes it very convenient for wireless use. The build quality feels excellent, with responsive buttons and a solid design that should withstand regular use. Overall, the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED is an outstanding wireless gaming mouse that offers premium performance at a great price. It combines accuracy, comfort, durability, and impressive battery life in one compact package. I would highly recommend it to gamers or anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality wireless mouse. Five stars!

The sensor on my old mouse stopped working and because I use my computer every day for photo editing, I needed a quick replacement I could rely on. I wanted something that felt comfortable in my hand without breaking the bank. After reading the reviews I decided to give the Logitech G305 a try and I’m really glad I did. It feels great to use especially during longer editing sessions. The buttons have a satisfying clicky feel and I appreciate the scroll wheel compared to my older mouse. It has a firmer more solid feel than the wheel on my previous one which makes it nicer to use when I’m working through photos. I also downloaded Logitech G HUB to fine tune the DPI. Being able to set it up how I like and cycle through four DPI levels is really handy especially when I want to switch between general computer use and more precise editing. For the price I’m genuinely impressed. It’s comfortable, feels good to use and has made my daily work at the computer much more enjoyable. It’s easily the best mouse I’ve used!

My older son has one & I needed a better one so I got this as he likes it. It feels solid and the scroller(?) Wheel is very smooth to use. As an old croak I didnt realise the dongle was inside...my son helped me. It has made a huge difference to my browsing and other pc stuff.

I’ve been using this wireless mouse for the whole month and I haven’t had to change the battery once, honestly, this thing is magic! The movement range is excellent, and not having to worry about being restricted by a cable makes you feel much more free when using it. It moves smoothly and responds well. I also really like that it’s comfortable to use with either hand, making it a versatile option whether you’re left- or right-handed. For the price, I’m genuinely impressed with it and would happily recommend it.

Perfecte muis die alleen op 1 aa batterij werkt!? Alleen is de usb naar usb kabel onnodig maar voor de rest is het zeker het geld waard!!!!

I bought this mouse after waiting 12 days for delivery. Just after 1 week if use the left click died. Very strange to see big brands like Logitech delivering such poor quality products. Luckily this happened under the return window so i have initiated a refund.

Really light and good feeling in the hand
