it's always exciting times on a big time gaming peripherals company like Logitech come out with a new flagship device and I've been salivating at the prospect of getting my hands on their brand new G 900 chaos spectrum finally the day is here and I'm very excited to see how this new wild gaming mouse performs and what Logitech have managed to pack into this extremely cool looking device now let's get one thing out of the way first to call this Mouse Wireless is correct but it can also be used in the wired capacity uniquely ended in fabric braided micro USB charging cable connects to the front of the mouth just like a wired mouse would and the Maslin operates in a Wired mode whilst charging up the G 900s battery it's very cool to have the option but Logitech done their utmost to make the wireless modes so good they would never want to touch an attached device again perhaps the key to this goal was the utilization of the pmw 3366 sensor today recognizes the very best sense are available and built from the ground up with wireless performance in mind in partnership with its supplier 2.4 gigahertz USB adapter logitech claims a report rate of just one millisecond yes you heard me correctly one millisecond report raid on a wireless mouse finally we can gain wirelessly and sleep at night knowing that all of our deaths were in fact due to lack of skill and the highway was not to blame wait maybe this is a bad thing anyway the design of the mouse is immediately recognizable is a Logitech one and to me this kind of looks like the aventador of the range especially up front cleverly the mouse is ambidextrous with magnetic button covers and replaceable thumb buttons that can be interchanged between either side of the mouse this is great news for lefties they often miss out when it comes to really high-end gaming mice in terms of overall size the G 900 is certainly not large there's quite a narrow profile narrower than that of the g502 but it doesn't feel too much smaller to use my hands aren't overly large though and those that do have big hands may find it to be a little on the slim side in terms of length and height the G 900 and g502 are extremely similar those that have been fans of the field the latter or G 402 for example would be Miller territory to me the most impressive part of the G 900 design is this extremely lightweight especially for a wireless mouse it comes in at 107 grams employing clever weight reduction techniques all-around high quality lightweight plastics have been used as well as clever implementations such as a hollow spoke scroll wheel design a chunk of this tiny 107 grams is obviously this wireless mouse is battery it takes around 2 hours to charge the 720 milliamp hour battery that Logitech claims will last 24 hours of actual use with the LED lights on and 32 hours with the light switched off conveniently the G 900 can be used as a wired mouse as I mentioned while it charges with its nicely braided micro USB cable the connector on the cable is kind of unique and cool but also unfortunately specific to the device I personally always have a micro USB cable on the dash ready to go as most devices use one but unfortunately I wouldn't be able to use this one for anything else due to its prong designs buttons wise the G 900 is equipped with 11 inputs which are controlled by a 32 bit AR M processor and configurations are stored on its onboard memory honestly all the buttons on the care spectrum feel great they all deliver a really clean snappy click that's satisfying low resistance and extremely fast the mouse wouldn't be a high-end Logitech without some sort of fancy action in the scroll wheel the G 900 employees an updated version of their dual mode hyper fast scrolling again allowing you to toggle between a precise click stepping and a much faster free spinning mode on the fly dpi switching is configured by standard to allowing game is to jump anywhere between 200 dpi to a staggering 12,000 dpi with the click of a button the G 900 is of course managed by Logitech proven gaming software here you can configure up to 5 profiles to be saved to the mouse's onboard memory and program each of the 11 inputs to any function you desire Logitech software also allows surface tuning where you can calibrate the sensor to your specific mouse pad also first to improve accuracy lastly you can play around with a few options regarding the mouse's RGB lighting which is a nice touch to the chaos spectrum is a beast when gaming as you'd expect did feel a little narrow on my hand at first but I quickly got used to this and the thought never crossed my mind again thanks to its lightweight and Industry best sensor it felt extremely accurate in all types of games rogue agents on the streets of New York City quickly learn to simply run for cover that's what I was telling myself anyway overall the G 900 chaos spectrum is a truly premium high-end gaming mouse with a price tag to match it weighs in at a fairly whopping 150 US dollars or 270 Australian dollars and that's that price it's only going to be hitting the mouse pads of quite well-off enthusiasts or kids who are well on the night side of Santa's ledger there are other mice in the same price range though from brands such as Razer and Mad Catz and the G 900 could certainly be the best of the bunch thanks for joining
