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.

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.

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.

Bought it on sale a long time ago. It's been the best mouse I have ever owned. I have very big hands, but I like resting part of my hand on my mousepad, so the small size isn't an issue for me. At the beginning, I had to get used to the light right click button, but it hasn't been a problem for a very long time. The RGB lighting doesn't really matter to me. Cool to have, I guess. The programmable buttons are well-positioned and I use them all the time. The cable is really long and I have no problems with it reaching around my desk and plugging into the back of my PC tower. The small size of the mouse is surprisingly nice. I have brought it with me on multiple overseas vacations and it fits almost anywhere. The cable is long but can wrap up really small. EDIT, a year and a half later: I’ve been using this mouse almost daily for two years. I’ve brought it with me while traveling and used it with several different computers. It’s fantastic. This is one of the best all-around mice, and the low price continues to astound me. The three programmable buttons are perfect. The small size is exactly what I wanted. Very comfortable and easy to hold. Thousands of hours of gaming and not a single issue. Phenomenal product.

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
