G203 Prodigy Gaming Mouse
If you’re a serious PC gamer, then you probably pay more attention than most people to your mouse’s responsiveness. How well it keeps up with your frantic movements and how customizable it is to meet your specific gaming habits are key factors in determining what makes or breaks a mouse in terms of your gaming needs.

Logitech is among the most active companies in terms of making gaming mice that meet most gamers’ requirements of responsiveness and programmability. It recently introduced a new member of its Logitech G Prodigy series of easy-to-use gaming gear that also offers great value, the G203 Prodigy Gaming Mouse.

Logitech’s newest gaming peripheral is inspired by one of the company’s most popular and well-known models, the G100S Gaming Mouse, with the same classic lines and simple build. The G203 takes that same model and re-engineers it with modern versatility, durability, and comfort.

Perhaps the most important specs for a gaming mouse involve its sensor, and the G203 Prodigy utilizes a new 200-6,000 DPI sensor that’s designed in the U.S. and made in Switzerland. The mouse also communicates at up to 1,000 reports per second, fully eight times as fast as the usual mouse, for near-instantaneous responsiveness.

Finally, the G203 Prodigy Gaming Mouse is highly customizable. Specifically, the mouse includes six programmable buttons, up to five levels of DPI sensitivity that can be adjusted on the fly, and LED lighting that provides up to 16.8 million colors and different brightness levels. All of the G203 Prodigy’s features can be fully configured using Logitech’s Gaming Software.

The Logitech G203 Prodigy Gaming Mouse will be available globally in January 2017. U.S. suggested retail pricing will be $49.99, with a price in Europe of about 45 euros.

Logitech has cut the cord on one of its bestselling gaming mice. The new Logitech G502 Lightspeed is the wireless version of the Logitech G502 Hero, a wired mouse that has been a beloved choice for many gamers. By shedding the cord on the Lightspeed design, Logitech made some big updates to make the untethered experience even better than the corded version. Logitech went as far as calling the Lightspeed "faster than wired."

Logitech claims it examined every facet of the G502 Lightspeed, from the design to the circuitry to optimize the wireless connection to deliver low-latency performance. In the company's testing, the response time of the G502 Lightspeed is much faster than competing wired and wireless mice. Because of this tuning, you need to rely on the dedicated internal receiver to benefit from the Logitech's performance enhancements -- no Bluetooth here.
