Customer Ratings & Reviews

This isn't a gaming mouse. The ergonomics are wrong, and button placement is bad. The back/forward buttons on the side are usable, but not for gaming. The DPI toggle is on top, but there is no scroll wheel toggle. This mouse is going to go into my backpack, for occasional laptop use. There is no left/right on the scroll wheel. This is a basic mouse that's good for browsing. Being that's it's 'Lightspeed' it's a good value for the money. It's just not a gaming mouse.

Excelente mouse for an excellent price, i just love it

If you like the GPro/G203 shape then this is the an excellent option if you're looking for a wireless version. Use a lithium battery and the weight is only 4g more than the wired version. Combine that with excellent battery life, a great sensor and top notch build quality and this is my new mouse to beat. Loved it so much I bought both colors.

For a wireless gaming mouse, I have been very impressed with how responsive the Logitech G305 Wireless Optical Gaming Mouse was compared to a wired version; this is due to the 1 ms response, up to 12000 dpi resolution and HERO sensor. It is very simple to plug-and-play right out of the box. My only drawback with wireless mice that are not Bluetooth is they take up a usb port. It's especially frustrating if you're using a laptop, like myself, which doesn't have very many usb ports to choose from. The mouse itself is relatively small compared to some I've used however still feels ergonomically sound. It has several customizable buttons which come in handy while gaming. Since it is produced by a very reputable company that has been in this business much longer than many in this gaming market, I feel it's priced right and a great option for those in the market for an upgrade.

Best deal i can find. worth it/ plug and play and does everything i need

Did not like it, too heavy compared to other non gaming mouse

No mouse pad needed, easy to use, all functions are on the mouse

Excellent. The size is perfect, and the extra buttons are very helpful when gaming. The fact that it is wireless is nice, too, in that there isn't a cord getting in the way when moving the mouse. I also noted that the feet have a relief in the bottom which makes the mouse glide even smoother over the mouse pad. All in all, I'd recommend this mouse all day long.

Those looking for a well performing mouse suitable for gaming that won't cost 3 figures, this is definitely a strong contender. Overall, it's a fairly basic mouse with only the essential buttons: back and forward, left and right, a wheel with a click button, and a button to change the DPI sensitivity. It doesn't feel nearly as premium in the hand as some of Logitech's other gaming mice, but it's also a fair bit cheaper. If performance is the primary concern for you, with hand feel being a secondary consideration, this is a mouse you should be looking at.

No noticeable lag at all, and I like how you can choose different speed settings for the curser. Larger size helps keep my knuckles from hurting. A bit louder than other mice.

Let me explain... The clicking mechanism in this mouse feels like it's a high quality mouse, but the lack of weight makes the mouse feel cheap - I hope that makes sense! The plastic it's made of feels like it can take a beating - it's just the weight! There's a button that lets you change the resolution of the mouse for those games that require precision moves (sniper mode anyone?) The battery is rated for 9 months - I won't complain, you can't expect a battery to last forever! It's definitely an improvement over the wired el-cheapo gaming mouse I was using previously, so I won't be overly critical! I'd recommend to friends!

For what this is, it works exactly as you'd want it to. Good resolution, excellent speed and no perceivable lag with bluetooth connection. Multiple buttons for some customization, but not overwhelming if you want to keep it simple. Plug and play. For this price point, it is awfully hard to beat. If you want pretty colors and 20 customizable buttons, you'll need to pay more, obviously- but for the rest of us, I'll take the G305.

I came from a Logitech g502, which was too big for my 16cm x 9cm hands. I like how much lighter this one is (89g with an AA lithium battery) compared to the 127g g502. The lack of a thumb rest is actually nice. And this being wireless on my small desk is a plus. It isn't 100% comfortable, but not at all uncomfortable. Just neutral feeling. Buttons feel like they need to be pushed further to actuate, but I don't mind.

Regularly on sale for $40-$50, the G305 Lightspeed has everything you need for high-level wireless gaming without any of the superfluous features that often drives up the price. There's no RGB, so I kid you not when I say the battery will typically last 3-6 MONTHS with daily use. There's no built-in rechargeable battery, but you can easily use rechargeable AAs (and you should) and get great performance. It's not a "lightweight" mouse but it's not heavy either, with a simple, easy to handle shape. There are two side-buttons if you want them and a good scroll wheel. And that's it, so if you're one of those who wants a million buttons for MMOs or what have you, this thing will feel really basic. Most importantly, it has a great optical sensor and great tensioning on the main mouse buttons. The clicks feel solid, mechanical, and precise (with none of the mushy feel that a lot of supposedly high-end mice have these days), and it's easy to throw around with precision on the mouse mat. And the lack of wires is such a game changer that once you go wireless, you will never go back. For players on a budget (especially for shooters), you cannot do better than this without doubling the price.

The mouse is really high quality and it works so good. The battery lasts forever. I’ve had it for a month and I have not had to change the battery, even though I’m a pretty avid gamer.

PROS: • Smooth movements • Simple design • Lightweight • Easy Setup • Everyday Use CONS: • Not Ergonomic Review: The Logitech - G305 Wireless Optical Gaming Mouse has extremely smooth movements, which can be adjusted on the fly. Great feature to have a button under the scroll button to adjust how much drag there is to the mouse, this is DPI Cycling. Compared to other Logitech mice, the G305 is very lightweight. You wouldn’t think there’s much of a difference in mice weight but there is once you try different mice and how much less effort there is to actually get it to move which in turn adds to the responsiveness. Setting up is a cinch! Simply plug in the USB wireless adapter to your computer and you have your mouse working within seconds. You can then adjust settings of your mouse with the Logitech software. The newest software (9.00.42) now supports the G305 mouse. You may want to update this before installing your new mouse. There are a lot of options to adjust for your mouse using this software, such as button assignments, DPI Sensitivity Levels, Power Mode. Using this mouse isn’t just for gaming, it’s a great everyday use mouse as well. The Logitech software lets you customize the buttons to your liking for daily use, then adjust them for gaming use creating a profile for each, then switching between the two as needed. Although this mouse works great, it has a simple design, no frills, no fancy stuff to it. It is not ergonomic. All in all, this is a great mouse. It has the versatility for daily and gaming use. It’s smooth and very responsive with great customization options.

Seems to me to be a pretty standard mouse. I can't really see the difference between this and any other mouse at this price point. It's small and lightweight. The receiver tucks away inside which makes for easy travel if you so choose. I still prefer the logitech trackball over a standard mouse for comfort reasons. All in all I wouldn't toss this one out.

I have probably gone through at least 5 of these through out the years. They are excellent light weight gaming mice. They are precise and good for fps or any kind of gaming. The bad thing about this product is that it is not build well, but what can you expect for something that is $40. The scroll wheel tends to go bad for some of these. Other than that I would highly recommend it for $40 entry level gaming mouse.

Unboxing the G305 and it includes a basic setup guide, battery, mouse and a USB extension cable. I have a cable from another Logitech mouse, but it's always nice to have additional cables lying around. The dongle is like most mice today and is located inside the battery compartment of the mouse. First impressions. I swapped out my G603 dongle for the G305 and it works. No it wouldn't work with the other dongle, I tried lol. I went to Facebook, yeah really, and scrolled my wall. I figured that's a good place to try the scroll wheel. Logitech replace the 603 because it had a hardware scroll issue and half the time it would scroll the wrong direction. So far the replacement has worked flawlessly. The same can be said for the 305. Out of the box it works exactly as it should. The backward and forward buttons on the thumb-side worked in Chrome to advance or go back a page. Left and right click works as expected. Out of the box, the speed and movement of the mouse work really good for me. Not sure if it's because it's new, but it glides really nice. All in all this will be a great backup mouse or I may use it on an older system I'm rebuilding.

If you want a basic wireless mouse that has great performance and battery life without any extra features, this one is it. The purple looks great also.
