Logitech G309 Review: A Surprising Experience

Hello, My Friends! It’s your boy, and today, I have an absolutely shocking of the latest Logitech G309 Review mouse.

Unboxing and First Impressions – Logitech G309 Review

I’ve never gotten a Logitech mouse early for review before, and this unit wasn’t sent out by Logitech. The origin of this mouse is a bit of a mystery, but rest assured, I still have all my fingers for reviewing purposes.

Design and Build Quality

As the name suggests, this new mouse falls into the G series category. It’s not priced outrageously, retailing at around $X, which is also roughly the weight of the mouse in grams.

Weight and Modifications

Similar to the previous G models, there are several ways to modify the weight. My current unit weighs X grams with a lithium-ion AAA battery. For those familiar with the G series, the advertised weight is Y grams, especially if you use the Powerplay feature, which eliminates the need for a battery and provides a theoretically unlimited wireless experience.

Shape and Ergonomics

If you’re hoping for a lightweight, mini version similar to the G Pro, this might not be for you. The shape feels like a cross between the GPX and the G model. It’s not modern but isn’t uncomfortable either. The mouse weighs X grams without the battery cover, making it a bit easier for fingertip use, but not ideal for claw grip.

Comparison with Other Models

Similar Models

Comparing it to the Zowie ZPro, it’s like a wider, flatter version, especially towards the back. The mouse feels stable, especially when attaching the hump piece for better claw grip, though it becomes back-heavy.

Shape Comparison

The shape is different from the original G Hero model. It’s a very safe design from Logitech, suitable for various grip styles but not particularly innovative.

Features and Performance

Optical Switches and Clicks

The mouse uses Logitech’s Light Force optical switches, which are light and responsive, similar to the older Omron M switches. There’s no creaking, and the buttons are spammable and in good positions.

DPI and Side Buttons

It features a DPI button on top and large, well-placed side buttons. The buttons pass the test for responsiveness and usability. The scroll wheel click is notably heavy but not a deal-breaker.

Additional Features

The mouse has Bluetooth connectivity, a transparent bottom (similar to the Shroud mouse), and a grainy coating that performs well even with moisture. It also comes with grip tape, although I didn’t apply it.

Gaming Experience

Using this mouse in-game, it’s not something I would add to my main rotation, but it performs decently. It’s wide and somewhat heavy, different from most market options. The stock skates are interesting, and while not the fastest, they play well on controlled surfaces.

Wireless Performance

Logitech’s wireless technology is reliable, with no issues during my testing. The mouse is safe and reliable but not particularly innovative. It’s not my top recommendation, but if you’re curious about the successor to the G series, this is it.

Final Thoughts

This is Logitech’s new budget wireless mouse—a safe option for everyone. It feels sturdy and performs well, but it doesn’t bring anything revolutionary to the table. If you’re a fan of the G series, you might find it worth trying.

Conclusion
