What is it: Laser mouse with adjustable weight cartridge
What we think: Gamers will appreciate the G5's vast customisability
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 20 September 2005
Tags: logitech, wheel, movement, surface
We like:
Customisable weight and sensor resolution let you tailor the feel of the mouse to different activities; 2,000dpi maximum-resolution laser sensor provides the highest sensitivity available
We don't like:
Designed for righties; only one thumb-side button
You might also need:
The gaming skills to justify the purchase of a £60 mouse with a customisable weighting system
CNET.co.uk judgement:
We can't say that we've ever wished our mouse weighed just 1.5 grams more, but if you're a gamer with the accuracy of an Army sniper -- or hope to become one -- you will appreciate the Logitech G5 Laser Mouse's vast customisability
Logitech G5 Laser Mouse History
21 Apr 2006 in Reviews
The humble mouse is an oft-undervalued PC peripheral. Many of us are happy to chug along using the basic models that are bundled with our PCs, but there are a number of third-party alternatives that can increase productivity, gaming accuracy and comfort
