Member Reviews: Logitech G9X Programmable Laser Gaming Mouse with Precision Grips

I ordered this as a knee jerk reaction to the RAT7 which I reviewed, but still recommend despite its flaws, that said, about the G9x, it came highly recommended and so I had to see what I was missing out on. The biggest selling points for me were how incredibly light the mouse is with all the weights removed. The sensor performs awesomely, but best on a hard surface. Setpoint offers great customization options, from adjustable acceleration, 5 dpi settings, custom LED colors, and the usual options. The mouse wheel is awkward to click with.

I got mine used from a trade on OCN and the cable was all kinked, called Logitech and they sent me a brand new one... great customer service. I had heard these dont do well on soft mouse pads because of the sensor... not true in my case. Mine has worked great for FPS games and RTS as well with a Steelseries Qck+ mousepad. The weight system and grip styles are a plus for picky users like myself, also it works well in claw grip or even palm if you have smaller hands. The build quality is top notch. I have used the G500, MX518 as well and this one is the best of the 3.
