I have owned tons of computer mice including e.g. Logitech MX Master. Some of them were good, some bad but this one is my most favourite mouse so far (together with its wired version G403). The only downside is that it is not a blutooth mouse.
To start off with the cons, the mouse is fairly chubby , you can see why some complain it’s a little big , on the other hand I have big hands so sits perfectly in my hand. Iv charged it 3-4 times and I got it on Christmas and it’s now April so in other words battery life is amazing ( I have rgb off) just turn it off by the switch when not in use .the customisation is huge in app and it’s great value because your getting the renound hero 25k sensor at a massive discount . Will you ever need the stupid high dpi nope is it nice to have yes. The mouse buttons are nice too all of them feel descent quality .. Does it’s job and does it very well, it’s worth every penny on the discount sales
Just as good as the Gpro if not better in my opinion this mouse feels amazing but has a different shape than the sleek design of the Gpro so if that’s something you like the mouse might not be for you but this is a very high quality mouse and If they did a superlight of this mouse it would be top of the marke
Great mouse, that is especially the case if like me, you get a great deal on an open box, but otherwise brand new, good quality mouse.
Everything is above average. Only thing I don’t like is that the rubbers on the sides can leave marks when trying to clean them. So be cautious of maintaining them in good condition.
Fits my hand perfectly, and has a grip to on the thumb part and charge last quite a while and when ur not using it, it goes into a sort of power saving mode but shake it and turns back on. Really god for gaming.
Great value for money considering this mouse is fitted with a Hero 25k sensor. This sensor gives the mouse a maximum resolution of 25600DPI which is outstanding and allows for precision movements no matter what your requirements. Whether it be for gaming, video editing or CAD this mouse is a perfect all rounder. It is very ergonomically designed with easy to reach side buttons and is rather comfortable to use for extended periods of time. The mouse also comes including an optional 10g weight which can be added or removed based on the users preference since the mouse is rather lightweight. featuring intelligent, customisable RGB lighting this mouse is rather aesthetically pleasing and LIGHTSYNC allows the rgb to react to in game action and more. Latency is minimised with the mouse as it uses LIGHTSPEED wireless which states it has a report rate of 1ms. This really can allow for quick reaction rates and enhance your overall experience. The installation of the required software is a simple process that is well written and gives a good walk through to the user so that anyone with an Internet connection can easily download the software. The product features a rechargeable battery that is housed internally, and cones with a charging cable. Manufacture stated battery life is rather accurate with default lighting being up to 35 hours and no lighting being up to 60 hours which I’ve found to be pretty accurate. Overall for the price of this mouse it is a great product, nice to use, nice to look at, and with a 2 year guarantee from logitech it’s great.
I grabbed this mouse as a replacement for my Razer Mamba tournament edition. I’ve bought mice to replace the Razer but keep going back to it due to none suiting me or my hand. I saw this one and thought I’d give it a go and instantly it felt perfect. Didn’t need to adjust or anything. 10/10 and the battery life is amazing. I’ve not charged it to 100% since buying it. Simple driver software and non distracting lighting options. DPI adjustable which is a must for me, as well as side thumb buttons which was also a big must. The size matches my mamba and also comes with a weight you can put in to make it heavier if you wish. Really good mouse, would buy another for work as I use this one for gaming. Very comfortable
I struggled to find a lightweight mouse that would fit my hand in a palm grip (I have large hands). This fitted the bill exactly. Having used the mouse for at least 8 hours a day for several months, my only gripe is that the battery life could be better. I have to charge it often.
I had my first G703 for about 7 months before the scroll wheel broke. I think this is a common issue with this particular mouse and is a design floor. However, every other aspect of the mouse is perfect in my opinion. It’s like the G Pro wireless in terms of tech specs, but it is chunkier, and for right-handed 80’s boomer gaming gods.

Mouse kept battery for up to 2 days when fully charged pretty light mouse with decent ergonomics yet its not the lightes
It’s a good mouse for the price and works well but if you are a more serious gamer I would recommend the newer logitech mouses. Apart from that it’s a really good for a budget and works as expected for how much I paid for it.
I personally like the basic design of the mouse however having only two side buttons is not to everyone’s taste, I came from a g502 and the amount of buttons annoyed me so I opted for a simplified mouse, I see no difference using wireless or wired with the mouse although I did seem to have some sketch movement on 500 pol rate in wireless but unsure if that was because of me messing with it so much previous to swapping poll rates, battery is not as long as stated I personally get about 16 hours of use not switching it off and on again like some OCD maniac
Suits my large hands well and the buttons feel really firm and well made, while the side buttons feel a little more looser in comparing
This is definitely worth the money.
Having only started pc gaming recently and being new to playing with a mouse and keyboard I was given advice by my brother to get a new mouse as mine wasn’t working properly, he helped me choose this mouse and so far I have not been disappointed, i think this is priced fairly and definitely worth it.
Perfect for gaming and general use. Would recommend for anyone who is building a new gaming setup. The point speed is amazing and accurate, the rgb lighting is great and nice to look at. It can also be customised with the app.
Great purchase, nice and clicky but not loud. Feels great in the hand and it’s nice and responsive. The added software gives loads of options. The charging cable also allows you to use it while charging which is a great feature. Would absolutely recommend especially for the price poi
I’m a very active FPS gamer (Fortnite, Bloodhunt, Apex, Warzone and more) and OMG! This mouse is amazing. Love the customisation of the RGB (although if you turn off the lights your battery will last much longer).
Battery life is great, if it does go low, it flashes you a red warning, so you put on charge and in no time your back to gaming.
Side buttons are very comfortable to press and love they stick out a bit more than other mouse’s.
Overall this is just a great and COMFORTABLE mouse.
Apps a bit poor online installer only.
Main issue is the RGB settings are not stored on the mouse so every time it’s plugged into a new device you get rainbows and default dpi
As a gamer, my partner was looking for a mouse and I passed this one on to her, she LOVES it!
Top quality feel to the mouse, and the DPI settings are wonderful.
No issues with the speed / click registers at all. Anyone looking for a mouse for gaming or work, I would suggest purchasing this.
Great price also no complaints
I’ve been using this mouse for the better of 3-4 years I believe and it’s the best I have used. I tried switching to razer/steelseries however this one just felt better whilst holding.
It has a lot of customization with the logitech hub software you can change the colours etc and much more.
The battery on this mouse is very good I can go for a week or so without charging depending on how much I use it. I’ve not charged it in about 2 weeks and I work 4 days a week for 7 hours using this mouse so that’s quite good.
It feels good whilst holding and the buttons on the side are not too large but they’re not flat like on other mice.
I’ve seen others claim their scroll wheel broke however after using this mouth for 3 years there is nothing wrong with it, only thing to change I would say is the rubber feat every 12 months or so depending on the usage.
I bought it as I wanted to have a more ergonomic and palm-grip mouse as this is my main grip style. However, the G703 feels much heavier than the G Pro X Superlight.
Shape
I just love the shape, it’s almost perfect for a palm-grip style !
Buttons
The buttons & scroll wheel feel very good, however I know they will develop double-clicking in the future. But this is not a very big problem, as the switches can be replaced by desoldering the old ones and soldering new ones in which is relatively easy.
Skates
I think those are quite bad and you would need to replace them with Corepads.
Weight
Feels way way heavier than the GPX Superlight and this basically makes it very difficult to use for me personally. I can’t control it very well because of the weight. I hope they will release a superlight model and I will sure be the first one to buy it.
The mouse also doesn’t feel very grippy, but that is also caused by the heavy weight, it kinda slips out of your hand due to the weight. I would suggest some aftermarket grip tapes.
From going to the G502, a relatively heavy mouse. To a G703 was insane, the transition is so obvious and it really feels like every penny you spend is worth it Logitech prove they can make great products yet again! I got this for a good price of 48 (half the price Logitech website had) and even if you were to buy this for 92 I would still say its worth it. I would only really recommend to people who are serious about gaming but this mouse is incredible. SERIOUSLY
Almost perfect, just missing a couple of personal preference features, such as left/right scroll wheel button functions, unlockable scroll, and the software is not as flexible as I’d like it to be but nothing I can’t work with.
personally it didnt suit me but that doesnt stop it from being a great mouse. i play fps games and i broke my g pro wireless and wanted to try something else so i bought another g pro wireless and the g703 to try and it feels amazing in the hand the shape is so good, the battery is good and the sensor is good but the feeling i had when using it just didnt compare to the g pro but in its price point i think its the best mouse
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my brother and he likes it so far. The connectivity is good and no noticeable lag as it is wireless. He did mention however that the materials feel a bit cheaper compared to his other Logitech mouse (G203)
I was looking for a mouse to go with my Logitech G513 RGB keyboard after my Razer DeathAdder began to die on me. I was skeptical on buying my first wireless mouse but I’ll never look back after being recommended this mouse by several friends.
Its form factor is small, but I’m quickly getting used to it. As a long time gamer with fairly large hands I was worried I’d have issues gripping the mouse, but the size is very ergonomic and the rubber grips on the side are designed perfectly. I’ve had it for about a month now and there’s no signs of wear and tear.
The battery life is great, for me it lasts for about a week when being used for most of the day, every day. Plus the charging is intuitive, I’m using the USB extension cord with the wireless adapter plugged in, so whenever the mouse wheel begins blinking red I can simply plug it in with the wire that sits on my desk, though this might not work for someone who finds cable management and minimalism important.
This has been my favourite mouse by far and I’ve owned many different models from different brands. I bought this on sale for 37.99
A note on the bluetooth: you must use the included usb dongle/receiver to have any sort of wireless usage. Even though it is listed as bluetooth, it cannot be connected directly to your computer’s bluetooth – you must use the dongle
Initial impressions however are good: impressively light for a wireless mouse and a good size and feel for my grip. Tracks well on my uneven sofa arm, but not so well on glass (it doesn’t claim to in fariness).
Logitech G Hub software is a separate download from the website which allows you to customise the mouse. It’s quite responsive software, and has lots of customisation options: colours, brigtness, button assignment, what dpi settings get cycled through. It can even automatically change the mouse based on your active program / game, or you can save separate profiles. However, the GHub software must be running on your PC, otheriwse the mouse goes back to its default settings (of colours, brightness and dpi cycle).
I’ve used a lot of mice but the G703 has always been a stand out from Logitech for me because of the ergonomic shape, outstanding wireless performance and fantastic battery life. Now on to the negatives of the mouse. The Logitech G Hub software is absolutely god awful, It’s caused me multiple headaches when it caused a blue screen of death crash at one point and had to reinstall it on multiple occasions. The old Logitech Gaming Software was much better. I’ve had this LIGHTSPEED version of the G703 for 2 and a half years and I used to really like the rubber side grips but now that they’re breaking down they have just become sticky and require cleaning almost everytime I use the mouse. I can’t decide whether to give it a 3 or 4 star rating because I still really like the mouse even with these issues.
Would I pay full price for it? Probably not because I’m a cheap skate and would go for something around the price I got it for. Its worth the higher price but when you knock 30 from it, it becomes a phenomenal mouse. Really good wireless technology and the battery life is so good, I can leave it on, mostly on standby but a few hours usage a day, for 4 days and only then does it start to fall into the red part of the battery. If I turned it off when I wasn’t using it it would probably last a whole 2 weeks
For gaming:
The product is great, if this is your first wireless gaming mouse then you will not be disappointed.
The old fashioned idea of there being more delay on a wireless mouse than a wired mouse is obviously not outdated. Really improves performance, I’d say mainly due to the lack of drag or chance of the wire getting tugged.
also, the battery life is incredible and at full can last about a week (even when being used for multiple hours at a time)
Ergonomic:
The product itself can sometimes feel a bit weird to hold but overall that could just be my preference. I have gotten used to the size and changed it to accommodate the mouse.
Tech support:
I haven’t needed to contact them regarding any issues.
It’s a lovely mouse for those with larger hands. If you prefer a palm grip instead of claw, this is perfect. My wife has smaller hands and so found it too big, so be aware.
For me, it’s perfect and feels great. I did add the extra weight they provide, but I wish they had options, even a separate case, of weights for it as 10g is just a little too heavy for me
The sensor is wonderful, cable is decent length, the nano connector for wireless is also wonderful. Buttons clean and feel quality when used
Overall? I bought a second for my laptop… Enough said.
I was able to get this for 37 on sale and for that price its amazing , ergonomics are 10/10 , the sensor is smooth and responsive. The only downsides in my opinion being that it uses usb- micro b and everytime the mouse turns off from being not used and being turned on again it likes to set the dpi at max or minimum
I used a wired Razer Deathadder for the past 6 years until the left click stopped working. Great mouse, but I wanted to try something new.
And it’s really surprised me. My hand feels less horizontally strained (maybe that is just me). I hated needing to drag a wire around when I pulled down. Wired mice try to mitigate this with braided wires but you will never be able to have a fully fluid experience with a rope attached. I think wireless is the ideal future for everyone. I used to drag my mouse down to “reset” the wire in place every 10 minutes. That is one repetitive motion I never need to repeat again.
I did not realise how much my old mouse strained me. Because of this improved ergonomics and movement, I am working and gaming better. Maybe this is just the honeymoon phase, but I love it.
Zero complaints, 10/10. Thanks.
The shape of this mouse is amazing for someone who’d like to do some light gaming but keep that ergonomic shape. It fits amazing in my medium sized hands. I find it nice for aiming in some popular esports titles such as Valorant or CSGO, and is amazing for all my other uses for productivity. The battery life is amazing i only ever charge it once or twice a month, and the bluetooth is just as good if not better than a wired connection. I’d highly reccomend this mouse to anyone who needs a mouse that is good for everything
This mouse is absolutely amazing..
Not only does it have a high quality gaming sensor (hero), it feels rubberised so your hands dont slip, its using probley the best wireless tech for mouses in the world, the build quality is insane, the RGB is annoying but you can turn it off/on and different kinds, has great macro suppport, battery life for me with heavy use is around 4 days then it needs charging, you can use it while its charging as well! Also not to mention logitech does support RMA of this mouse from the amazon purchase (i did it once), so not only are you coverd by amazon, after that time expires, logitech supports you for upto 3 years! awesome product and quality you can trust!
I started off using a Mionix Naos 8200, which was an incredibly comfortable mouse, but ultimately too big and heavy for competetive games such as CSGO, so I retired it.
I then moved onto a Steelseries Rival 310, 4 of them in fact, owing to Steelseries’ horrendous build quality.
Finally I rested on the G703, and I’m very happy.
I will break up my review into three parts: build quality, performance, and general usability.
BUILD QUALITY
This mouse is impeccably built, the clicks on both the right and left buttons are solid, satisfying and tactile. The same can be said for the side buttons, which is often a downfall of mice build quality.
The scroll wheel has very minimal tilt, and the scroll steps are solid, if slightly less tactile than I’d prefer. The included braided cable is great, provided you don’t want to use the mouse whilst charging as it is far too heavy to use with the mouse.
The only thing I can take away from this is the lack of USB C. It’s 2020 Logitech, come on!
PERFORMANCE:
The sensor in this mouse is the improved Hero sensor, which offers excellent performance at significantly reduced power consumption. In my time using this mouse, I haven’t ever experienced spin-out, or any sensor strangeness, it’s been rock solid.
The mouse is easy to grip with both fingertip and palm grip, my hands are fairly small so they both work great for me. The rubberised sides really do make a difference to the level of grip, and they don’t show any signs of wearing down.
The mouse moves flawlessly across my Corsair mousemat. Initially the mouse feet made it difficult to move the mouse without resistance, but they wore down over time and the mouse is now perfect for quick movements.
The sensor is top notch, as you’d expect, aiming feels crisp, and despite my lack of headshots in shooters, I am completely certain that that is entirely down to my lack of ability, and not the mouse.
All of the switches in the mouse feel great, when I first got the mouse, I placed it up to my ear and clicked the mice buttons, they’re that satisfying to use. They are slightly too light for my tastes, I have occasionally thrown a grenade or shot when I didn’t intend to, however this happens very infrequently and is a small price to pay for the excellent clicks and tacticle feedback.
I cannot notice a difference in the wireless vs wired performance, there have been tests that show that Logitech’s Lightspeed technology is sometimes even quicker than wired. I never felt cheated by the wireless, it’s incredibly responsive and a testament to the leaps in techonology that have been made recently.
It’s difficult to describe the freedom of a wireless mouse, it just feels so much better than wired, the freedom is immediately noticeable.
The extra included weight is a nice touch, though I personally play with the weight cover off, to make the mouse as light as possible.
GENERAL USABILITY:
Battery Life-
The mouse has great battery life, I could easily get 60 hours out of the mouse at 500hz polling without lighting. With lighting at 1000hz polling I got closer to 30. I was recently gifted the Powerplay Mousemat, so I never have to worry about charging my mouse again, but for those who do, you shouldn’t have any issues with battery life. The mouse will also let you know when it is close to empty through the RGB effects and software.
Software-
Despite numerous reports online of Logitech’s software being terrible, I have had a generally good experience with it. I blocked its access to the internet and prevented auto updates, and it’s been largely smooth sailing. The DPI adjustments work well, lighting effects sync seamlessly and the macro funtion is a godsend for timeline work. Honestly, I’m only buying Logitech mice from now on, soley for the macro functions.
Comfort-
This mouse is very very comfortable. It took me a while to adjust to the shape, but once I did, it just fits in my hand, like it belongs. The separated left and right click buttons means that you can have your hand quite far back on the mouse and still reliably click.
I regularly use my mouse for long sessions of timeline work and I have never felt fatigued or cramps coming on when using the mouse.
OVERALL CONCLUSION
In conclusion, this is a fantastic, albeit quite expensive, wireless mouse. It’s very well built, has great clicks, a flawless sensor and stellar wireless performance. If you have the cash, it’s a great option, if you have even more cash, get it and the powerplay mat, which gives you the benefit of a wireless mouse without the main negative of wireless, the charging.
Great mouse that I use for gaming and for work/productivity and general use.
As someone with quite large hands I wanted a larger mouse than average. I would honestly say that while I love the mouse and it is extremely accurate and comfortable, I now believe a slightly smaller mouse would be better for gaming, even for people with quite large hands. So that is something to bear in mind: comfort doesn’t mean peak performance (because it is slightly less manoeuvrable than a smaller mouse).
That being said this mouse is exactly what I wanted it to be. Build quality feels great, ergonomics are great (especially for a gaming mouse) and the logitech software is good for the mouse too. Good aesthetics.
Negatives: the proprietary charging cable seems like an unnecessary complication. Definitely not taking a star off for that though.
l;dr: It’s a great mouse. Highly responsive with great battery life and very comfortable.

========== Pros ==========
Performance:
– Fast and responsive in a variety of games and desktop usage: FPS, MMO, RTS, Strategy etc.
– No noticeable lag in wireless or wired modes.
– Instant response when move it from sleep mode.
– ZERO pixel skipping or stutter (I had this on my Razer Lachesis from early 2010’s (remember that one?))
Battery life:
– >=1-2 week depending on usage and lighting settings. I have had it last 3 weeks. If you blast RGB and use it 8 hr a day it will probably last <1 week.
- Can switch it off manually underneath.
- Will sleep itself if not registered movement, it turns the lights off. Prob is why I've had it last so long.
- Play and charge.
- NO BATTERIES it's an internal cell.
Comfort:
- Very - Probably been designed for mixed/palm grip but I sometimes switch to claw and fingertip grip and never had issues. It's certainly a larger mouse than some, which is create for my hand size.
- Nice and light but not too light. Can add the included weights if you need to.
- Glides across mousemat with no snagging or jumping (I use Steelseries).
Connector:
- Smooth braided kink-free USB cable with an odd prong shape to it on the mouse-end, which connects to the mouse securely.
- In wireless mode you detach the cable from the mouse then attach a dongle to the cable, and it just works.
Aesthetics:
- Smooth hard plastic top with some soft rubber sides.
- Mouse wheel soft rubber feel.
- Side buttons shiny black plastic.
- Mouse wheel and G symbol light up RGB, nice and bright.
Quality of life:
- When turn it on the mouse wheel flashes red to tell you it needs plugging in. Very useful.
- Can assign macros and reassign all the keys in the Logitech software.
- Software is very simple and uncluttered (Coming from a Roccat Kone that is a blessing trust me..)
- Battery-saving Sleep mode when doesn't register input after few mins.
Packaging:
- Clean design, Neat and tidy.
- Small compact box about half the size of my Roccat and Razer boxes from >5yr ago. Less landfill wastage.
========== Cons ==========
Software:
– Can glitch out sometimes, such as not showing device connected.
– Update fails to apply sometimes.
Happy with this mouse. I mainly play FPS like bf5, warzone and overwatch and this performs amazingly in them. Before this mouse i had a really heavy mouse with lots of side buttons which was good for mmo’s but the G703 really does make a difference for fps, its light and even more responsive than my old wired mouse. Linus tech tips did a video on logitechs wireless mice to see if their claims for having less latency than wired mice was true and they found that it was.
I use a palm grip and have medium sized hand, this feels comfortable even after hours of playing. The battery life is decent, i usually charge it every 5 days with heavy use of around 8-10 hours every day.
The logitech software sometimes crashes but overall its ok, i only use it because i also have a logitech headset.
Overall i recommend this mouse for gamers.
I picked up the G703 to use in conjunction with the Powerplay induction charging kit alongside a G413 Carbon keyboard. I’m more a strategy and RPG guy these days than a shooter player so I’ll leave comments on accuracy to those more qualified, but I’ve found the G703 to be an excellent and responsive device which once fitted with the Powerplay puck never needs to be charged or plugged in except for firmware updates.
But.
In order to control the RGB on the mouse or allow it to remember its sensitivity settings, you need to use Logitech’s G-Hub software, and this software is Not Good. Sometimes it refuses to work at all, sometimes it won’t sync the mouse RGB to the other devices. (I’ve found waiting until the Powerplay mat and keyboard have loaded their lighting settings before switching the mouse on to help a little with this.) Worse, however, is the fact that it’s possible for G-Hub to fail updating itself and to do so so spectacularly that you can’t re-install or un-install the software. A removal tool like CCleaner can expunge it sufficiently to re-install, but this is amateur hour stuff from Logitech.
Even with these problems the usability, build quality and convenience of this mouse makes it a 5-star device. I’ve docked a star for the software issues, which have persisted for more than a year at time of review.
I was shopping around for a mouse for a month or so after my corsair M65 started glitching out on me. As always I’m trepidatious when buying tech so I always done my research but what spooked me for this mouse was the “true wireless” and I’m glad to report that it is in fact 100% lag free. It doesn’t have the new HERO sensor but I’d be stumped if I would be able to tell the difference between that and the LIGHTSPEED sensor.
This is a mouse for people that prefer palm grip over claw. I would say my last Corsair mouse was in between palm and claw and the G703 is just so much more comfy, the ergonomics are great and the mouse is so light!. The charge on the mouse is great, I’ve charged it once to 100% since I purchased it and I’m currently sitting at 33% as we speak. The mouse goes into standby mode to if it doesn’t detect any movement to conserve battery so you don’t have to worry about accidentally leaving it on over night. The RGB elements are great, the colours are really full and the software gives you a ton of options to add your own commands to the mouse.
All in all, I bought this mouse on sale for around 50 and in retrospect would have happily paid more for it. I was so happy with it I bought it for another tech heads christmas.
In-game so far I have had no dropoff in aim compared to my previous mouse so I assume its doing a good job tracking wise.
In comparison to the most recent mice I’ve used:
Logitech G502 – G703 shape is more comfortable the thumb buttons are easier to use
Zowie EC2 – matte surface is infinitely better, scroll wheel is much better and the whole mouse is more solidly built
The wireless aspect is hugely liberating with seemingly no drawback thanks to several generations of development by Logitech.
Overall I highly recommend this mouse to anyone who wants to upgrade to a wireless gaming mouse and prioritises comfort over having 11+ buttons
