Review: The G603 is really nice in my humble opinion. I personally have grown to prefer utilisation of batteries like this as you can always just replace the battery when it runs dry rather than having to wait for the thing to charge. I also really love being able to use it in Bluetooth mode. Extremely convenient as I can switch from my PC to my Laptop if I'm on the go. The Bluetooth mode has a lower polling rate though and the cursor is therefore noticeably more jittery. Doesn't really pose an issue though, it's just something I notice that I'm not hugely fond of but I'll just put it down to the limitations of Bluetooth, and it's neat that it's even there in the first place. The sensor is accurate and has been very elegant for me in games; I don't play as much as I used to but it feels as accurate as my old ROG Gladius Core. Couldn't ask for any more there Also something weird I noticed is that it can store an extra 5th DPI profile that didn't seem to be accessible by default; I accidentally added it through a software on Linux, and though that was interesting. Though, not particularly useful for me as I use a dpi of 700 on the daily. (#LowDPIGang) But yeah. Pretty nice. I'm happy with it, and hopefully it lasts. I'm generally lucky with tech and even stuff that people report breaking fast lasts me longer than I expect hahaha

Review: I bought this from Amazon warehouse (I had good experience with getting "like new" condition items.) I was looking for a mouse to work (mainly photo editing) and play occasionally. The mouse was immaculate, no scratch, and the mouse feet pads were hardly worn. Looking good so far. Windows doesnt install the Logitech Gaming Mouse software as standard, I went to the logitect website for that and update the mouse to the latest firmware. The mouse was nice to grip, the weight is about right for me. (I play Destiny 2 and The Division on PC) the DPI settings was easy to set up. and the mouse can remember the keys set for each game I play. and the big bonus of multi-connectivity, bluetooth and the usb dongle. I connect via Bluetooth exclusively on my laptop. The niceties end here. After about a week, the mouse starts playing up: 1. mouse does not track or recognise slow movement, which make photo editing very difficult. Those small adjustment to the slider, the mouse doesnt move at all. It only moves after a hard nudge. 2. mouse wheel does not track properly. when I scroll down, the page scrolls up and down but remain at the same location. With these issues, I went and contacted logitech support, the first response I got was: 1. Re-seat the usb dongle (which I dont use) 2. Not to use the usb dongle in a KVM or USB hub (my laptop only has 2 USBs, a mouse is not going to take those USBs) 3. Disable "USB Selective Suspend" settings (stopping blaming windows settings) 4. Update the firmware of the mouse: G603Update_8.5.26.exe (this really gets me, logitech support advises me to install an older firmware, when the latest one is 8.6.28 as listed on the logitech website!) I double checked the logitech forums, apparently users have been reported the same issue. Some has received replacement from logitech, some regularly installed updates over and over again to resolve the issue every fortnight. While these issues arenot a problem for gaming (it plays very well), it defeats the sole purpose of being a mouse for both work and play. I decided enough is enough, and returned the mouse back to Amazon, who has gave me a full refund. With the refund, I bought the Logitech MX Master from Amazon Warehouse, and it works like a treat! It has not got any of the issues I named above. Money well spent.
