Logitech - G604 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Optical Gaming Mouse with 25000 DPI HERO sensor - Black

Originall I was planning to get the MX Master for coding/productivity. But then I stumbled upon this find and found it to be on sale as well. In my opinion, this is better than MX Master (at-least for the Mac users) since it has a lot of programmable buttons, so I can program them all for the Mac gestures. I've read reviews of G Hub being so bad, I am not a professional gamer so my review probably doesn't matter much on that front but I have found G Hub to be awesome at-least on Mac. Another reason you shouldn't go for the MX Master is due to the higher DPI on this one. Also this is future proof for my gaming endeavors.

Pros: - 6 side buttons, and the two buttons on the left click are all remappable with the GHub software, and if you assign gshift to one button, you can map another 7 buttons - Battery life is great, ghub shows full battery after heavy use for 3 weeks with the mouse on the whole time - Free scroll is amazing - Bluetooth option if you don't want to use a dongle Cons: - Personally didn't like the mouse clicking noise when not in free scroll, find it a little too loud - Sometimes I like to use the mouse on a blanket or whatever surface I can find, and when I do, the mouse becomes jittery and randomly moves around (my old mouse didn't do this, logitech m510)

Good mouse, I use it with my gaming laptop. It didn’t had any delay, just a little when the bluethoot usb was too far away, but it comes with a cable to extend the range.

So far my favorite logitech mouse! No lag Great precision for gaming man and its also bluetooth i can use on my ipad win win

I currently use a G502 but I bought this G604 for my brother and wow, I will be getting one because the shape is phenomenal it fits my (large) hands perfectly, the contouring on the right side for your ring and pinkie fingers is super comfortable and makes the mouse feel really maneuverable and controlled. It is physically larger and taller with a steeper curve for the palm and for me it feels like it fits much better in my hand and doesn’t cause my hand to lay as flat as it does on the G502. To be clear both are wonderful mice but if you have larger hands and don’t care about RGB get this over something like the G502.

This is an excellent replacement for the G602. I've been using Logitech mice since the early 90's since they have excellent customer service when dealing with faulty/worn out hardware. The G604 has a nice contoured shape that your hand comfortable rests on and also has an area for your thumb to sit on. There are plenty of buttons to customize to your liking as well.

I’m a fan of Logitech products, some better than other but have always preferred their mice, so I have plenty for comparison. Unboxing: This new G604 comes like all the other Logitech mice lately, well packaged in a nice black Logitech logoed box. Inside is the mouse, single AA battery, manual all neat and ready to set up. The wireless dongle is under the battery door at the rear. Setting up: The first thing you do is open the back of the mouse up, there’s a small cover that opens up on the top back ¼ of the mouse, it’s held on by magnets and comes off very easily. There a compartment for a single AA battery and the wireless receiver is also stored here, nice for travel. I simply took out the wireless dongle, inserted it in an open USB port “fortunately my monitor has 4 USB ports”, plugged it in and inserted the battery, replacing the back cover. The AA battery is suppose to last around a month using the dongle, and I'll be happy with that if that's the case. Getting a month off a single AA is pretty amazing, but will see how it does in real use. I already had the G Hub software installed and it picked up the new mouse right away. There you can set the DPI sensitivity, and program all the buttons for pretty much anything you want. It also has a custom macro section for setting up your macros. After setting up all the buttons the way I liked “never had one with so many buttons” it I was off to using it. Actual use: Logitech really did a great job on this new mouse and it’s going to be my favorite one for sure. Even though I have smaller hands I prefer a heavier larger mouse, small ones just feel too cramped. This one being on the heavier side is perfect, I really don’t like light mice. There’s a button right below the scroll wheel for scroll lock so you can have smooth or notched scrolling of the wheel. Then there’s an additional button right below that for turning on Bluetooth and setting it up. I really have no need for that now so I’ll be using it with the wireless dongle. I’ve been trying this out for everyday use and for playing some Skyrim, Witcher 3 and Fallout 4. And I can say this mouse is accurate, smooth and just feels great in my hand. The other mice are going to get lonely sitting on the shelf as I can’t see myself going back to any of the, even if some have the fancy lighting “which doesn’t do anything for me”. I also have a Logitech Pro wireless “which costs more” but I really don’t care for the feel as it’s made as an ambidextrous mouse, so if you are left handed I wouldn’t consider the G604, all the buttons on the left would just get in the way and it’s not shaped for lefties. Conclusion: This is going to be my favorite mouse, hands down. It fits me perfectly, the programmable buttons are great. The left side buttons may be a little too far forward for me to use the front two of the six comfortably but I still have 4 that I can easily use and setting up some macros for Skyrim worked out great. If you like a lighter mouse then this may not be for you, it will be a personal preference but this one is definitely not on the light side. It’s also pretty large too so again; it’s all going to be personal preference. In the end though this is really a great mouse for gaming and just regular computer use and the added thumb rest on the left make it that much more comfortable and stable.

The Logitech G604 "LIGHTSPEED" wireless mouse is a great addition to my gaming setup. There’s a stigma that surrounds wireless gaming mice and responsiveness, but I don’t feel the impact with the G604. As this isn’t a wired mouse, it has to have a battery; the bonus here is that it’s a replaceable battery. I’ve been all about rechargeable mice for a long time, but since the G604 is geared towards gaming, it makes sense to be able to replace the battery with minimal downtime / waiting to respawn. Removal of the back cover is simple and there’s a small groove to guide you to where you have to lift. To get the customizations, you have to use the G Hub software, but it’s a no-go for the Mac; Logitech support still hasn’t responded to my inquires about the issues getting it running. On the PC, however, as soon as it saw the mouse, G Hub *knew* that a firmware update was available and once given approval, pushed it to the mouse within a few minutes. Keeping it close (I went with the USB dongle) made sure that there were no interruptions or partial-updates. I really used the mouse for Borderlands 3. Immediately, I found that super responsive DPI-switching gives me the ability to hop to 3200 DPI quickly scan to acquire a target with minimal mouse movement and then pop to a lower DPI for a less responsive set of combat firing. I didn’t try a DPI of 16K, but the thought of how little you have to do to get the cursor from side to side is comedic. The scroll release has a nice click and it’s delay free. Unlike some of the Logitech mice, it doesn’t appear to be electronics driven (read: MX Master 2S) as it needs a noticeable push to move it from free-flow to click. The scroll wheel is also a panning wheel, as it allows left/right/down clicks to boot. The traditional left/right buttons have a nice click and repetitive clicking can generate some serious noise, whereas other home/office mice won’t be so noticeable. Six thumb buttons allow for a seemingly endless amount of customizations. The G Hub software allows you to save different profiles so remapping doesn’t have to become part of your pre-game warm-up. Then, you have +/- on the side of the left-mouse button, which by default controls your DPI switcher. I mean seriously -- I like to game, but 16 buttons takes some muscle memory that I just don’t have time to get into. Pairing this with the Logitech G Pro keyboard was a great choice, though this mouse doesn’t share the G Pro keyboard’s RGB capabilities. Given that, it seems like they really focused on quality and didn’t add features (RGB) that could be lag-inducing. One thing I’ve noticed - is there are no weights that can be used to make it heavier, as it is pretty light. I would have liked to see that as part of the mouse, as not everyone likes the lighter mice -- and would rather slow it down a bit on purpose. In this review period, I didn’t need Logitech support - again, because I’m still waiting on a response from my keyboard. So, for me and my gaming needs, this is a 5-star mouse!
