Logitech G700s Rechargeable Gaming Mouse and G910 Orion Spark RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Black

For 6 years I used the "legendary best mouse of all time" Logitech MX Revolution. (It is so good that, years after it ceased production, a few unopened boxes appear for sale at ridiculous prices of hundreds of Pounds/euro/Dollars: a caveat is that their aged batteries, main issue of this model, are unlikely to perform.). After some years the MX battery started failing. It is not easy to get a replacement battery and to dismantle the unit and change it. Even worse, problems develop whereby the replaced battery after a short while starts having troubles and hardly recharges at all. The solution is to bang the unit flat against a table: after a while this manoeuvre is needed daily and eventually the unit breaks down. It was high time to ditch the old MX.After much searching, I found that this was the recommended replacement and bought it from Amazon. Shape, size and weight are very similar indeed. After 4 days of use, this is my review:CONS (all minor):1. WHEEL MODE: The fast "inertia-wheel" in the MX Revolution had an electronic device that, if the user decided to activate it, shifted automatically from "clicking" to "free", or else this was done manually by the wheel button. In the G700s the automatic device is no more: a dedicated button located immediately below the wheel does the trick. Admittedly, a minor issue.2. WHEEL BUTTON AND DOUBLE-CLICK: The wheel button is as before very hard to press (and many users claim that this strong spring fails after a while). This is a pity, because a common use for it is for double-clicking. There was a solution in the MX Revolution: using for double-click the Search button, located below the wheel where now is the non-programmable wheel-shift button. (Double-clicking with the Profiles button is not practical if you need manual profile switching, and besides this button is much nearer to the palm of the hand and requires curving the middle finger a lot: this is OK when changing programs, but not for a frequent action such as double-clicking).PROS:3. DPI: The MX Revolution had a 800dpi (dots per inch) resolution. Mouse speed change was software-controlled. The G700s has a variable resolution from 200 to a remarkable 8200dpi. These change the pointer's speed. The way you change the dpi is very convenient: for every profile you can set between 1 and 5 different resolutions. You move between them using two dedicated up-down-shaped index buttons. This is very practical for photo editing where you may need occasionally a very slow pointer movement for precision work. (If for a particular use you do not wish to change resolutions, you can program the buttons for any other action)4. BATTERY TYPE: The MX Revolution had a rechargeable battery which, after its lifespan was gone (5-6 years) was (a) difficult to replace requiring disassembly, (b) expensive and (c) difficult to find and no longer available after some years. The G700s uses a common AA rechargeable NiMH battery. If need be, you can have outside the mouse a recharged spare ready to use, and if the battery in the mouse goes it is very easy and inexpensive to replace it.5. RECHARGER: The MX Revolution recharged the battery by placing the unit in a cradle (wired to a charger plugged to the mains). Thus, while recharging you could not use the unit: a serious hindrance. The G700s recharges its battery by means of a special USB cable (this requires a 2nd USB port, a 1st USB port being used, as with the MX, for the wireless receiver). To require a 2nd USB port (ideally not in a USB hub) is a minor issue, but it has the huge advantage that this USB recharging cable doubles as data cable: while the mouse recharges the battery, the wireless is automatically disconnected and the mouse becomes wired. In other words, if the battery runs low you just plug the cable and keep using the mouse: a great advantage over the MX Revolution.6. COATING: The MX Revolution had an upper glossy coating and lateral rubber surfaces. They both became easily soiled and were difficult to clean. Now the upper glossy coating is dirt-repellent, and the sides have a texturised finish that allows a very firm grip. It really feels better.7. WIRELESS RANGE: The MX Revolution exhibited a minimal "wireless lag", fractions of second between mouse action and effect on the PC, and the wireless range was a few meters. The G700s exhibits no wireless lag at all and the unit has a 10m range (thus with suitably large mouse arrows and back-forward buttons it can double as a remote control in slide projection).NEUTRAL:8. BATTERY ECONOMY: The MX Revolution's battery, when new, lasted a few days. We cannot expect this in the G700s if you use it for intensive gaming with high DPI: users (see other reviews here) have reported that if so the battery will hardly last a full day of use. However, most users only run action games a small proportion of their time at the PC, and they do not care if the mouse is slow to respond after minutes of not being use: if so they can set the unit to "Power Save" mode and it will easily last for 4 days. Anyway, with the new recharging-while-using system the battery duration is no longer a problem.9. PROFILE ASSIGNMENT: The MX Revolution used the SetPoint software, where one could assign every button different actions according to which program is running in the active Windows window. Thus you go, say, from a Internet browser window, where two thumb buttons perform "back" "forward" to a Picture editor window, and the same buttons automatically perform "zoom out" and "zoom in". The G700s uses instead the Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) where something similar can be performed setting the mouse to "Game Detection Mode", which detects which applications have been launched. Some users are not happy with this and prefer the "On-Board Memory" mode, where the Profiles (up to 5) are stored in the mouse and you cycle among them manually with a specific button (2nd one below the wheel): if you press it the 3 lights (green for battery test) glow orange showing the profile in use with a very intuitive coding (1: --X, 2: -XX, 3: XXX, 4: XX-, 5: X--) . I am happy with 3 profiles: 1 for general use, 2 for picture editing and drawing and 3 for flight simulators.10. THUMB WHEEL VS BUTTONS: The MX Revolution had 2 thumb buttons and, below them, a thumb wheel which actually performed as three buttons: these were not practical for anything that required a fast reaction. The G700s has dispensed with the thumb wheel and there are instead 2 further thumb buttons below the original ones. This feels more practical. Problem is, now all the 4 thumb buttons have a very feeble soft low-feedback click.I have read complaints about long-term duration of this unit and will post here any significant change. For the time being, however, I am very happy with this mouse and find it a very worthy successor of the good-ol' MX Revolution.Joe C. Di Veroli, Rep. Ireland

I love this mouse, so fantastic. I use it at home for Hmong as well as carrying it to work for, well... Work! Large size means it is much easier to palm grip or fingertip grip, meaning claw grip is a thing of the past with this mouse. Battery easily lasts all day, often two. The battery indicator isn't very good, as I will sometimes unplug the mouse in the morning, use it through out the day, and then get at "25% battery remaining" notification on my PC, but t is still good to go for another day.It sad lag fee wireless, and it definitely is. Haven't noticed any mouse lag, except when I fort plug it in at hone/work and it takes a moment for it to start working properly. Use it with a wireless headset (G930 also from Logitech) and no problems there.Buttons all fairly easy to reach, but the front ones easier. I like this, however, as it is easier to feel which keys you are pressing, and less pressed keys can be assigned to the further back buttons so you have to "decisively" press them, without accidentally pressing the wrong one.Weight fairly well distributed, and the louse can actually be picked up without much of a grip, due to the fact that it fits so well in the hand.Profiles work fairly well, but sometimes I need to click out and back of a window for the profile for that application to work - this is generally after a pop-up or something has appeared, and the louse seems to forget that it is still on the profile for whatever program was running, and not the default one (for the pop up). This isn't always, only sometimes.Data transfer charging cable work fine, but playing with a cable definitely feels slightly inferior to playing without, but that is the point of a wireless mouse! Charge it at night and it should be fine.Sorry for the lack of structure in this review! Think I covered everything of more though :) Love this louse and definitely recommend it.

Meiner Meinung nach die beste Maus die es gibt.Sie liegt perfekt in der Hand und hat, vor allem zum zocken, genügend Tasten. Nicht zu viel, nicht zu wenig.Die einzigen Kritikpunkte die manch einer wohl nennen kann sind:- Das etwas dicke und steife Kabel.Womit ich allerdings klar komme und mich nicht stört da ich das Kabel perfekt auslegen kann, außerdem kann man die Maus auch vom Kabel trennen und ohne dieses verwenden, funktioniert einwandfrei!- Die Akkubatterie.Hier gebe ich den gut gemeinten Rat diese auszutauschen. Meine Empfehlung; Eine Duracell Akku Batterie (AA) mit 2500 mAh. Damit hält die Maus länger durch ohne am Kabel gebunden zu sein als mit der mitgelieferten Akku Batterie die schon in der Maus drin steckt.Da mich persönlich diese Punkte nicht stören ziehe ich hier auch keine Sterne zur Bewertung ab. Ich bin absolut begeistert von dieser Maus und kann sie jedem Empfehlen, zum Arbeiten wo man Makros braucht oder speziell zum zocken.Dazu ist auch die Logitech Gaming Software nötig, die man einfach auf der Logitech Seite herunter laden und installieren kann.

Il prodotto è sicuramente il miglior gaming mouse che abbia mai provato. Posso concordare che la batteria non abbia questa gran durata, ma visto che funziona tranquillamente anche con il cavo non vedo il problema. In più c'è da dire che avendo l'interruttore on/off si puo spegnere e risparmiare batteria in fase di prolungato inutilizzo. In ogni caso posso tranquillamente dire che, personalmente, non mi è mai capitato che la batteria mi durasse meno di un giorno, di conseguenza mettendolo in carica la notte l'autonomia per tutta la giornata è assicurata. Altra nota positiva è lo slot per inserirci il ricevitore (molto compatto quindi non da fastidio sporgendo troppo dalla porta usb, ma nel contempo molto facile da perdere, specialmente con gatti che girano per casa allo stato brado). I tasti sono disposti in modo molto ergonomico, certo bisogna farci un attimo la mano visto che sono parecchi, ed il software per programmarli è impeccabile (l'unica pecca è che io non l'ho trovato fornito nella confezione, l'ho preso usato, ma mi pare di capire che comunque non fosse in dotazione). Simpatica la funzione di avere la rotella che scorre in modalità "a scattini" o "liscia" anche se personalmente uso sempre e solo la prima, prim'o poi forse troverò anche un utilizzo per la seconda.Conclusione, per i soldi che gli ho dato, non potevo fare un affare migliore.

Buen ratón para Gaming con una precisión muy buena llegando a los 8200 dpi a 1000Hz, personalmente cuando juego lo hago entre 4500 y 5500 dpi, osea que pasar de esa cantidad me parece marketing, he jugado con el razer mamba T.E. y cuando lo pones por encima de 10.000 es incontrolable.Lo mejor que tiene para mi es que es inhalámbrico pero no tiene nada de lag, funciona perfecto para jugar que es lo que esperaba, admite también el uso con el cable de carga.Es muy cómodo/ergonomico para diestros, y pienso que no válido para zurdos.La batería consiste en una pila recargable común, en mi caso me subministraron una panasonic de 1900 mAh y aguanta bien más de una semana usando el ratón 3 horas de juego diariamente, tiene indicador de carga con luces led, y también mediante software.Los botones son 4 para el pulgar, 3 + botón tradicional para indice y 1 único botón "tradicional" para el dedo corazón; Además tiene un scroll con doble velocidad de desplazamiento que se cambia con un botón situado debajo del mismo. Este scroll además presenta 3 tipos de pulsación: el típico presionando la "rueda", y dos más inclinando la propia rueda a derecha e izquierda.Todos los botones son totalmente configurables y admiten macros con y sin grabación de tiempo de retardo entre pulsacionesLo único que le puede faltar a este ratón son:* luces, que personalmente no me gustan en absoluto además de que "se comerían" la batería.* Personalización de peso si bien es bastante ligero, y muy cómodo, entiendo que algunos prefieran personalizar su peso.Lo que menos me gusta es el tacto un poco áspero, si bien lo notas durante 2 segundos luego te olvidas.Saludos

Souhaitant remplacer la souris que j'utilise avec mon PC de salon (branchée sur ma télé et que j'utilise depuis mon canapé), ma Logitech performance mx ayant lâchée (problème de clic gauche assez fréquent apparemment) j'ai décidé de commander plusieurs modèles parmi les meilleures, les mieux notées sur amazon entre autre.Je vais donc donner mon avis sur cette G700s en fonction de mon utilisation à savoir web, multimédia essentiellement.Les plus :-Il me semblait que ce n'était pas le cas mais la molette est débrayable et ça c'est très bien.-Le défilement horizontal est très bien réglé, pas trop souple, on ne risque pas pour autant d'appuyer sur le bouton de la molette en s'en servant.-de nombreux boutons, tous personnalisable et comble de tout ils sont tous très bien situés, on les trouve facilement quand on les cherche et il ne sont jamais au milieu quand il faut pas.-La forme est très agréable, semblable aux performance et master MX.forme et couleurs discrètes pour une souris "gaming"-Précise et réactive, même à distance.-Il y a un emplacement pour ranger l’émetteur ce n'est pas toujours le cas.-Je manque de recul mais je l'ai utilisé plusieurs jours sans avoir à recharger la pile, c'est positif, je modifierais mon commentaire sur ce point si besoin par la suite.-Le prix pour un modèle si complet chez logitech est plutôt correct.Les moins :-J'ai un peu dû tâtonner pour trouver un réglage de DPI qui me corresponde-la matière des zones extérieures, ou l'on pose le pouce et l'auriculaire, est rugueuse ce n'est pas agréable du tout-Il s'agit peut être d'un manque d'information de ma part, et d'un inconvénient mineur mais j'utilise le lecteur de vidéo "média player classic" et avec la plupart des souris que j'ai testé lorsque l'on appuie sur les boutons précédent/suivant le logiciel passe à la vidéo suivante avec cette souris il ne se passe rien, c'est un élément que j'ai également rencontré sur la G900 de logitech et la razer mamba chroma, si quelqu'un sait comment régler ce soucis je suis preneur il lui manque que ça pour être parfaiteJ'attend de voir ce qu'il en est réellement de l'autonomie mais pour l'instant c'est mon coup de cœur.Pour ceux que ça peut intéresser j'ai également testé :-Souris Sans Fil Verticale Ergonomique, ESYNiC 2.4G Souris Optique de Gamer 6 Boutons-Conception Spirale Volute de Moteur-Main et un DPI Bouton pour 3 Gears (800/1200/1600 DPI)- Idéal pour Ceux Travailler Longtemps Devant PC et Des Joueurs - 2 Batteries AAA Inclus-TeckNet® VOLANT Souris Gaming Sans Fil Gamer, 2.4 GHz, 2000 DPI, Nano-Récepteur, 5 Commandes Programmables, 5 Profils D'utilisateurs-TeckNet 2.4G Souris sans fil Optique, Verticale Ergonomique, 3 niveaux de ppp ajustables, 2000 ppp, 6 boutons, durée de vie de la batterie 18 mois, Nano-récepteur Bleu-Logitech MX Master Souris sans fil pour Windows et Mac Noir-Patuoxun 2000 DPI Souris Sans fil Optique/ Souris Gamer Professionnel 7 boutons Réglable 2.4G - Jeux de Souris Gaming Bluetooth pour ordinateur, LOL, Pro Gamer PC Portable - Noir-Logitech G900 Chaos Spectrum Souris Pro Gamer sans-fil ambidextre Noir-Razer Mamba Chroma - Souris de Gaming - Noir
