If you’re using it for gaming, expect to be replacing it within 6 months, as I had to. If you’re looking for a mouse for less intensive actions, such as office work, then this is likely going to last you years and years and be an absolute workhouse for you. Unfortunately, those switches responsible for the double-clicking issue undermine the entire product, so I can’t merit scoring it higher as a gaming mouse given it’s simply too fragile for it. The customizability of 4 different DPI settings is a great extra, there are a lot of these small positives. The Lightweight advertising for the mouse is equally accurate too, weighing only 99g with the battery included with the mouse in place – it’ll make for one of the most lightweight mice you’ll ever use, so it’s certainly fast. I experienced no issues with the accuracy of the mouse either. Anyone buying this as a fairly high-spec office mouse might be in for a surprise with those though. The mouse comes with two side buttons, which is a nice bonus though fairly standard at this stage for anything advertising itself as a gaming tool. There are plenty of things I haven’t really dived into here honestly. Is the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED mouse worth it, in review The double-clicking from bad switches however is a rather fundamental issue, given that the G305 is a mouse and a mouse with unreliable Left and Right mouse buttons has effectively ceased to be a mouse. I understand some people might not like G-Hub as well, but that is a bit of a neutral issue for me. Honestly had it not been for the double-clicking issue, the G305 Lightspeed from Logitech would have scored very highly in this review. READ MORE: Vissles V84 wireless keyboard review

I recently replaced it with a Logitech G604, and while it hasn’t (yet) had the same issue, I’m not as impressed with that mouse as I was hoping for the price tag. I’m not sure if that is the reason, but it certainly seems plausible that it could be.Īnd I can confirm this is definitely still an issue because my very own G305 had precisely this problem. This is often chalked up to the use of cheaper switches for the mouse buttons in more modern builds. Seemingly random double-clicking after a period of use. The Logitech G305 Lightspeed falls prey to at least one common issue with Modern Logitech mice. While there are a lot of minor and major things to recommend this mouse while I’m reviewing it, there is one rather fundamental flaw.

Unfortunately after all those positives, we do have to move on to the worse part of the experience I had with this mouse.

You’ll need G Hub to be customising that, and speaking of G Hub, let’s move on to the not-so-great bits. Even then it only flicks on when the mouse is turned on, or when you change the DPI mode. The Logitech Logo shown is a simple silver icon on the mouse itself, not somewhere for light to shine through as an example.Īs a matter of fact, the only light on the mouse itself is used to indicate which DPI mode you are on, located below the mouse wheel. If you’re an RGB Enthusiast, that might come as a negative, but the lights on this thing are quite limited. The G305 isn’t exactly packing much in the way of flashy gamer-only features.
