Can you tell us which mousepad are you using?
Maybe the sensor is a little picky and that's why people is obtaining so different results.

I can see that you have the G400 with prediction. smile.gif

It's without prediction, the PID is of the new ones and the box had logitech text stickers on it.

It;s Roccat taito that was cleaned before test. I've also tried it on Icemat and raptor gaming mat but the differences were marginal.

Wouldn't say that's a fair comparison as the G1 would be sending less data @ 125hz, but cursor quality should still remain good due to the higher image processing capabilities.
Soft capping the G100 @ 125hz would provide much nice cursor quality than the default 500hz value. (Still a weaker sensor)

I will do G100 vs G400 at 500hz with their native resolution steps so 400vs500 , 800vs1000 and 1800vs2000dpi.
I'm sure you will be surprised by results. So far I didn't find real weakness in G100 sensor that could be felt in any game. Though it has to be said that I only use it at 1000 dpi andI play at 1920x1080 (this is still giving me pixel accuracy ).

I have a G100. Not sure what they did for MCU work, but I assume the lower values are just down interpolated from the lowest native driverless value which is 1000.

Mouse is fine at 500/500 values, but it could have been a bit "better" from my point of view.

I tried playing with it at 1000 DPI and it felt... weird. Hard to describe it, but words "floaty" and "wobbly" come to mind. I occasionally use it at 500 DPI at my secondary PC and it works fine, no complaint there.
