Logitech G203 Prodigy RGB Wired Gaming Mouse – Black

I bought this as a replacement to the Razer Deathadder, which itself I bought as a replacement to the Razer Deathadder 2013. Though durable for 7 years, the Deathadder 2013 had a problem in which one click would produce a double-click from time to time (extremely frustrating), and eventually the scroll wheel broke. The new Razer Deathadder, just like the old one, had the same 'one-click producing two-clicks' problem right out of the box. The Razer mice also had a strange issue which caused the mouse sensitivity to become greater just by virtue of opening the Razer software. I bought this Logitech G203 for around $20, and I could not be happier with the purchase. It's beautiful, the price was as good as it gets, and, most importantly, IT WORKS PROPERLY. I have no double-clicking issues anymore, the mouse sensitivity doesn't randomly speed up when the Logitech software is open, and it was easy to adjust the DPI and find the level that works perfectly for me. I have never been this happy with any mouse in my life. As a bonus, I was able to acclimate to the new mouse the very same day. There was no 'learning curve' for it, coming from the Razer mouse. I haven't written a review here in I don't know how many years, but I'm hoping it might help some other frustrated Razer mouse owner find a new, well-priced gaming mouse.

This is probably the best mouse that you can buy for under $30. While there are similarly priced mice with the PMW3360 sensor and Omron switches, some of them won't be built as well as this mouse. This mouse uses the same exact shell as the G-Pro wired, which is based on the Logitech G100s. So, its a small mouse. I have medium sized hands and I can safely use all 3 types of grip styles comfortably without losing accuracy in my aim. The build quality on this mouse is fantastic. I have no rattles, loose buttons, it glides on my mouse pad with ease, the build is very sturdy and high quality. And with that solid build, the mouse weighs only 85 grams, great for having to make quick movements in FPS games. The buttons are pretty good too. The left and right click buttons use Omron switches rated for 10 million clicks, so not the top of the line buttons but they are solid, and they are tensioned very well too, not as tight as the G305 buttons. All other buttons such as the scroll wheel, DPI and forward/back work as expected. The sensor is Logitech's Mercury sensor. It can track up to 8000 DPI, has 20G acceleration (optional) and can track at 200 IPS. No spin outs, acceleration, jitter, it tracks beautifully. In fact if I didn't know what sensor was in this mouse I would have thought it was the PMW3366 or the Hero.

This is a very good mouse for a very good price. It have a nice small shape that makes it ideal for shooters. I have 19 x 10 cm hands and use a relaxed fingertip grip. This mouse is much more comfortable for me than my old logitech g400. It is also very light which is nice. The cable is fairly thin and flexible which is also a plus. I have had no problems with tracking. The sensor has a very low lift of distance on my steel series qck mouse pad which is also very good. logitech software can be used to configure profiles per game. It might be a bit intimidating at first but is very convenient. You cant set different DPI values, different lighting options and button assignments per game. the scroll wheel is nice and easy to click in. All the button have nice light clicks and the left and right clicks have some nice comfort grooves on top which is a plus. The RGB lights are very nice. You can have color cycle, adjust the speed of the color cycle, turn off all lights, set a breathing effect or just have a solid color on at all times. It is disappointing that you can't set which colors you want to cycle through, its either all colors or one specific color. I don't think you can find a better mouse with this built quality and software feature set at this price point ($30).

I bought this mouse on Black Friday to replace an old Razer mouse where the light couldn't be turned off. Plus this mouse had three extra buttons. To get to why I really like this mouse is its modularity when you take it apart. Be aware that taking apart your mouse will void the warranty so do so at your own risk. Since I bought this for $19.99 I figured it was worth the risk for what I wanted to do. My main issue with this mouse was the texture of the scroll wheel. It was a bit much compared to my old mouse. So, I decided to open it up and see if I could replace it with a scroll wheel from an old Logitech wireless mouse. Unfortunately, the parts weren't interchangeable so I had to do something else. I ended up taking it out and sanding it down to my liking. It took a little while but it was worth it for me. To get into the mouse all you have to do is unscrew three screws and you're in. Inside there are two things that you can modify: the mouse wheel and the cord. If you don't like the cord and that it does not have a braided sleeve like its more expensive cousin (G403 pro), you can take the old one out and replace it with a braided sleeve, but it is not directly compatible so you would have to do some soldering. You can purchase this cable directly from Logitech for $10. If you're tech savvy and want a fun little project, modifying this mouse could be for you. Overall this is a quality mouse for the price in my opinion. It is simple and it doesn't have the gamer aesthetic and built in a way that leaves the door open for some little mods. But just like with keyboards and key switches, everyone has their own preferences so I'd suggest going to a store and testing out the options before making a purchase. Pictures: The picture of the bottom of the mouse shows the screw locations. The parts that are lifted up have screws underneath them. The picture of the inside is exactly that, the inside.

I have medium sized hands and this mouse seems best suited for a claw style grip vs a palm grip. Palming the mouse is possible, but only if you don't mind having one or two fingers making contact with the mousing surface. Other than that, it's a solid mouse! I wasn't sure if I'd like it coming from a Microsoft X6 mouse, which is much larger, but I wanted to try it out because of it's classic design and I was curious about the performance of Logitech's in-house optical sensor used in this model. So far so good. It tracks at least as well as any previous high end laser mouse I've used in the past and the downloadable software allows for adjustments to the lighting, DPI, choice of using the on-board memory to retain settings or just keep it specific to the system (stored in software on the PC). The only con, for me anyway, is that the lighting controls are limited to full RGB with rate adjustments (how fast it cycles) or choosing a single color that breathes or pulses in intensity. The speed of the breathing cycle is adjustable, but I was hoping for a setting that allowed for the lighting to simply be on, with a single color and without any breathing effects. Not certain why this isn't included as I'm sure the hardware can handle it just fine. Something to keep in mind if you're assuming that is an option, as I did. Overall, great mouse! Breathing effects aside, and I do have it set to cycle at the slowest speed so it's nearly unnoticeable, the mouse performs well, feels very solid in the hand, and while not heavy, has enough weight to not shift around on it's own after releasing it. While the cord is not braided, this is a bonus in this case as the thinner and more flexible rubber cord allows for the mouse to move freely.

I like that it has some style without being distracting in a business office setting. It's held up well for several years with no signs of wear in the mouse or cable. I prefer the reliability of wired mice, and this has been rock solid. No advanced features, but it does the basics really well. Perhaps a bit small for an adult male with size large hands, but fits well enough.

This mouse is an almost exact replica of the Logitech Gaming Pro mouse except for two important differences – the sensor and the cord. The G Pro uses a Pixart PMW 3366 sensor that is found in Logitech’s recent gaming mouse lineup such as the G502, G303, G900 and G403. This sensor is known to be one of, if not the best sensor on the market today. With the G203, Logitech took matters into their own hands and developed their in-house “Mercury” sensor which has been garnering good reviews as well. Any sensor made for gaming mice after the PMW 3310 is generally considered “flawless”. The G203 also comes with a rubber cord rather than a braided cord which swayed my decision to keep it over the Gaming Pro. The braided cords on Logitech’s mice tend to be a little heavy and create drag. The rubberized cord on the G203 does not completely eliminate drag but has a much lighter effect on mouse movement if drag occurs. As for movement, I found it to be a slightly less snappier(??) than mice with PMW3366 sensors I own at the same DPI levels. Being less snappier does not mean that the sensor is better or worse, it is simply my reaction based on moving around with the mouse. It also may be the impact of muscle memory as I have used the G502 and G403 for a while now. The difference in movement is a bit reminiscent of mice using the 3310 (old Deathadder, Rival 300) vs the 3366. I did not have any trouble with flicks and fast movement and the mouse handled everything I threw at it. Once calibrated, I observed almost no difference between the Logitech mice mentioned above and it has been my daily driver since.

Logitech really has pushed the boundaries on budget gaming mouse qualities, to even call it a "budget mouse" would be insulting as it sports a flawless sensor that blows every other large company's offerings out of water. Seperated mouse buttons with finger grooves, side guards to cover where your ring finger resides on, omron switches, matte textured plastic side grip, large and flat scroll wheel with nice clicks and solid steps, a rubber cable that is flexible and soft and arguable even better than the one on G Pro, it all screams quality on this mouse, most of these features you won't even get from some other "premium" mice *cough $70 zowie stiff as hell buttons and huanos cough* Logitech even kept the RGB lighting on this! Which looked absolutely amazing and quite surprising as the last generation equivalent, the G302, only had blue leds Many people including me are speculating that the reason Logitech priced this low is to test waters with their new in-house sensor(which is amazing btw you can google it yourself.) And so here you are basically paying half the money for what is G Pro's grade of quality. The only reason I could think of of not buying this mouse would be that the shape does not suit you, but that is understandable as we all have different hand sizes, and shape is still the most important factor when choosing a mouse, and objectively, this mouse is worth 5 stars on every aspect, when it goes on sale, it is a must-have.

recomendo a todos!

Great mouse just a lil small for palm

Me gusto por que se ve ligero y preciso, ademas de que lo compré por el sensor de alta Precisión los clicks hace ruido pero eso no importa, y sí, es ligero tiene un agarre muy bueno al menos para mi mano.

Was a clear upgrade over my old abyssus

Per chi non ha moltissime pretese, questo mouse da gaming Logitech è davvero ottimo. Acquistato in promozione ad un prezzo di circa 25€, dispone di DPI programmabili e tastino rapido sulla parte sinistra. I DPI e i led sono configurabili mediante applicazione da installare su PC
