 Logitech G Pro Gaming Mouse Review - by Ino



The long anticipated and hyped Logitech G Pro Gaming Mouse is finally here. I had the chance to play with this mouse for quite a while and can safely say at the start of this review that replacing this mouse will be almost impossible for any other mouse for me. This will be my main mouse for a very long time I guess.







The G Pro is basically the shape of the G100s with the 3366 sensor, the buttons of the G303 and side buttons.



Disclaimer: My review model was provided to me by Logitech as I have been beta testing this mouse for quite some time.

The mouse comes in a simple box in the same style as all the recent G series mice.



What's included:

- Logitech G Pro Gaming Mouse

- Warranty sheet

Weight & Shape



The promo video calls it the “classic Logitech shape” which means for the Pro Mouse: it’s the same shape as the G100s. The G100s of course has the legendary mx300 as its ancestor. The Pro really is maybe a tiny bit bulkier around the waist as the G100s but that is really tough to tell with the naked eye.

What I can say is that I love the shape as it gives me no fatigue using it and I always feel in full control.



Weight: 83 g (84 g on my scale with cable attached, without 83 g)

Height: ~ 38 mm

Width: ~ 62 mm

Length: ~ 115 mm

Number of buttons: 6

How I grip the mouse















Of course shape is completely individual preference, so everyone has to try for himself in the end. The perfect shape for me might be horrible for others. So please keep the pictures of my grip in mind for comparison.







Sensor / Performance



Perfect. It’s the 3366 after all.



I’ll only post the mouse tester screen for the 400 CPI step, but rest assured it performs the same on the others too, at least in terms of PCS









CPI steps









CPI steps are very close to proclaimed values but the tendency is to be a bit above to proclaimed value which is why the mouse feels faster than my Zowie mice for example.



Jitter tests in paint









All fine here too.





Speed related accuracy variance



Angular displacement in that video was as follows



1.37, 0.12, 0.08, 0.98, 0.86, -1.06, 2.32, -0.82, 2.51



The method I use here is not too exact but still the result is impressive.



Lift Off Distance



LOD is pretty low, less than 1 CD.







Software



LGS, like you’d expect with a Logitech mouse. It has the same features as the previous 3366 mice by Logitech.



In the start screen you can change between On-Board and game detection





Set the buttons, CPI steps, polling rate





Change color, color schemes, lighting effects etc.





Do surface tuning (note: I never use that, default is perfect for black cloth imo)





Heatmap your usage







Buttons / Scroll Wheel / Cable



The main buttons are Omron D2FC-F-7N(20M), wheel button is one of those square panasonic ones (I think), CPI and side buttons are Kaihl. Button latency against a wired G900 is close to identical as was to be expected.



Pro (A) vs wired G900 (B)





The mousewheel has a Kaihl mechanical encoder, don’t know which one exactly. But I can tell that it feels really good. I really prefer mechanical wheel encoders to optical ones.



The cable is braided, but of the ok kind. I’d much rather have a Zowie cable or best a paracord cable, but if it has to be braided then this one here is alright. By the way this is the only thing about the whole mouse I would change.
