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.
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.
First and foremost, the Logitech G305 offers outstanding wireless performance. The LIGHTSPEED wireless technology ensures a lag-free and responsive gaming experience, which is essential for competitive gaming. I never experienced any connectivity issues or delays during my gaming sessions.
The Hero 12K Sensor with a maximum DPI of 12,000 is a standout feature. It provides precise tracking and accuracy, allowing for smooth and precise aiming in games. Whether I'm playing fast-paced shooters or strategy games, the sensor delivers exceptional performance.
The lightweight design of the G305 is perfect for gamers who prefer a nimble and agile mouse. It's comfortable to use for extended gaming sessions, and the low weight makes it easy to flick and control during intense gameplay.
The six programmable buttons are a practical addition. They allow for customization to suit specific gaming needs, and the button placement is intuitive. The ability to assign macros and shortcuts enhances my gaming efficiency.
The impressive battery life of up to 250 hours on a single AA battery is a game-changer. It means I can game for an extended period without worrying about constantly changing or recharging the battery. This is a significant advantage for long gaming sessions or tournaments.
The onboard memory is a valuable feature. It allows me to save my preferred settings and configurations directly to the mouse, so I can take my customized setup with me wherever I go without the need for software installations.
In terms of build quality, the Logitech G305 feels solid and durable. The buttons are clicky and responsive, and the scroll wheel has a satisfying feel. It's clear that this mouse is built to withstand the demands of gaming.
The price point of the G305 is competitive, considering the features and performance it offers. It provides excellent value for money in the gaming mouse market.
In conclusion, the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse is a top-tier gaming peripheral that I highly recommend to gamers of all levels. Its wireless performance, high-precision sensor, lightweight design, programmable buttons, long battery life, onboard memory, build quality, and affordability make it an outstanding choice for competitive and casual gamers alike. Whether you're into FPS, MOBA, or any other gaming genre, this mouse can elevate your gaming experience. It's a reliable and versatile tool that delivers exceptional value.

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.
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!
