Logitech g602 mouse review
Its sculpted flanks, asymmetrical profile (this is strictly a right-handed mouse – sorry, lefties), and eleven programmable buttons to push all scream “gaming mouse.” The black and grey metallic color scheme is austere, yet likewise reinforces that impression. This is easily one of the most aggressive-looking mice I’ve ever seen. But before we put it through the proverbial wringer, let’s have a good look at it. I was glad when Logitech offered Techgage a sample of its G602 since I want to see if a wireless gaming mouse could be a viable option for gamers.
It’d be a lot like running out of ammo right in the middle of a firefight. Even though I’m not a competitive gamer by any means, I can think of no worse scenario than for your mouse to just conk out on you in the middle of a heated battle. These claims certainly caught my attention, since they addressed my biggest misgiving regarding wireless gear. Well, when Logitech first announced the G602 wireless gaming mouse back in late August, it claimed that its newest wireless wonder could survive up to 250 hours on one pair of AA batteries in its hungry Performance Mode (and up to 1440 hours in Endurance Mode!). Especially for competitive gamers, disconnections, input lag, and, worst, dead batteries are analogous to being caught with one’s trousers bunched around one’s ankles in socially-awkward contexts. Cable clutter is no problem they’d rather have that kind of potential mess than suffer from the traditional problems that afflict wireless gear. Most gamers I know don’t trust wireless gaming peripherals. All the shocked looks, the awkward explanations… Not that I’m speaking from experience, but, well, you know… There’s no doubt about it: It’s embarrassing to be caught with your pants down.
