Logitech G309 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse Lightweight LIGHTFORCE Switches Hero 25K Sensor 300 hr Battery 6 Programmable Buttons

I’ve never really understood why some gamers are so fixated on weight. Does a few grams really change performance that much? If you’re not playing in tournaments for prize money, I don't think it really makes a huge difference. For most of us though, a good gaming mouse should just be comfortable, reliable, and fits our normal everyday lifestyle, which is exactly what the Logitech G309 delivers for me. That said, this mouse probably isn't entirely designed for ultra-competitive players who obsess over little details such a weight or the fact it uses a single AA battery. I feel it was made more for people like me. Someone who is more of a casual gamer who balances gaming with work, hobbies, and other devices. And for that purpose, it’s perfect to me. One of the standout features is its Bluetooth capability, which I’ve been hunting for in a gaming mouse. A mouse that connects to multiple devices and runs on AA batteries is incredibly rare. I’ve checked out Razer’s options, but the connectivity issues made them a hard pass. I did switch my G305 to a Pebble though because multi-device support was more important to me than pure gaming performance. The G309, though, hits both needs—solid gaming performance and seamless switching between devices. The use of AA batteries is another win for me. I love the convenience of popping in a new battery (rechargeable or disposable) on the go, and in my experience, the battery life on AA-powered mice tends to outlast internal rechargeable ones. Brands often skip AA batteries to save on weight, but despite not doing so the G309 still feels super lightweight, and it even has an option to go lighter with a powerplay mousepad if I ever wanted that extra versatility. The comfort level also deserves huge praise. Coming from the G305, I always found the shape a bit awkward, but I went with it for the battery life and price. It’s funny that some people now look back fondly on the G305’s shape, but for me, the G309 is a very clear improvement. The shape is more comfortable, and with my medium-sized hands and a claw grip, this is probably the most comfortable mouse I’ve ever used (not even exaggerating). The clicks feel solid, also with just the right amount of pressure to prevent accidental clicks, and the glides are smooth. In conclusion, I’m definitely surprised that there are gamers who find the G309 heavy and hate on this mouse just because it isn't a direct copy of the G305 with refreshed internals. To me, it actually still feels lightweight and even comes in 13 grams lighter than my old G305. Overall, I’m thrilled with the G309. It’s practical, versatile, comfortable, and I'd personally say it's without a doubt the perfect choice for a more casual gamer like me, as well as a clear improvement from the G305 which I've used for several years. Kudos to Logitech for such a great mouse. Love it. Read more

The G309 is a solid mouse, good construction, with very decent specs: HERO 25K sensor, optical switches, Logi's Lightspeed wireless and BT. And if you use lithium batteries, you can get the weight down significantly. (Like 71g with a lithium AAA + 1/2 of an AA adapter, 66g if you take off the backplate as well) The Powerplay option is also good for lowering weight, giving you 68g and 62g choices. Mouse wheel is on the quiet side, and battery life so far is typical for Logitech, meaning the battery will last. The opticals are on the louder side of things, however. I don't find the side buttons mushy, but nice and snappy. The length is on par with a Mini sized mouse, and the width is between a Medium and a Mini. I do recommend grips for it, and I use Cicada Wings 2.0 whites on the sides. Read more

This is an amazing mouse. I have rechargeable batteries but even a single one lasts for weeks for me. The G Hub software is very easy to use. Changing the battery is very easy and there is Powerplay support as well (I do not have Powerplay so I have not tested that yet). The Ayaka design is very nice too. The only downside for this mouse, and I don't know if I was just unlucky with mine, is that the cover/compartment that goes over the battery is a bit loose and rattles/wobbles a lot. This is noticeable when you reach for the side buttons moving your thumb, or if you move your palm up and down with a palm grip. However, I did a DIY fix by putting electrical tape in most areas of the bottom of the cover/compartment. This might add slightly more weight, but it prevented the rattle/wobble completely.

I've purchased 3 so far, only because once you've used it, you can't go back to anything else. The pointer precision with this mouse is spot on. The "feel" is even better when you have a high refresh rate capable display. "Smooth as Butter" they used to say. The oldest one I've had is so far 1 year and no signs of problems yet. I use the mouse more than 12 hours a day every day. The battery has only been replaced once. No issues with clicking or the scroll wheel. Everything about this mouse is fine tuned. The default settings out of the box are good, the scroll wheel requires just the perfect amount of force to move, and the DPI/sensitivity is set to a good rate. I do not feel fatigue in my hand while using it and it's easy to disable to DPI shift button with the software. There are a lot of positives with this $90 mouse that outperform the more expensive and "premium" models. #1 best part of this is the replaceable battery. Why anyone would make a mouse without a replaceable battery (let alone buy one) is beyond comprehension. Logitech's software is still the weakest component in all their products. Most software these days is terrible due to poor developer skills. It's a dying art for sure. Recent versions of G HUB are better, but it's till very clunky and resource heavy. Logitech please all we need is just the most basic UI to manage our settings. A simple Win32 App with no fancy stuff will do. Time will tell if the optical switch solves one of the biggest issues with Logitech mice. I have several other models that are useless because the switches malfunction. With just one minor change this could be a perfect mouse. It only needs hyperscroll. Read more

Not only is this a gaming mouse, it actually performs a lot better smoothly compared to the regular versions for its unique type, with scrolling speed, clicking precision, buttons are perfect for switching to different sensitivity, nice and comfortable, stronger durability, and is worth your value for money.
