more details welcome to my unboxing and first look at the G 700 s from Logitech the key difference between their 7 Series mice so the G 7 the G 700 and now the G 700 S is the fact that they are all wireless but gaming grade the G seven was really the first Mouse that was marketed as a gaming grade wireless mouse and the difference between gaming capable wireless mice and non gaming capable ones is all about the latency so creating a wireless connection that is low latency enough the gamers aren't going to notice any input lag from the mouse is key to being able to well being able to be responsive enough particularly for FPS gamers in order to really with a straight face call it gaming grade now Logitech has recently upgraded a few well pretty much their entire G series of products with this S suffix at the end of it so the S is for I don't know for supreme performance of surface or something like that and what they've really done is they've upgraded the materials that they're using on the products themselves covering them in a hydrophobic coating upgrading things like the grippy sides upgrading everything about them to make them last longer and feel better on the user's hands so they shouldn't get all sort of greasy and sweaty and nasty and they should be easier to grip and I shouldn't peel back in fact my only complaint about one of my favorite my sever the G 9 was the fact that my grip peeled other than that it was near-perfect so let's see what else Logitech has to say for themselves about this 200 all the way up to 8200 dpi giving you the ultimate in flexibility so that's 12 mega pixels per second and image processing and the maximum speed of up to 4 meters per second so 4 contacts that's tested on popular gaming mousepad surfaces so for context guys I'd be like if I was moving my mouse this fast like probably faster like no one actually well ok maybe someone actually moves like that over a very short distance but should be able to handle it let's go back up back to the box over here sixteen bits per axis up to a thousand reports per second that's great for a wireless mouse there's only a few that are capable of that and durability of 20 million clicks for the buttons and 250 kilometers for the feet although unfortunately they don't say what surface that is on so apparently the buttons are fingerprint-resistant it's where you can recharge and handle data over single connection it has five onboard memory profiles which you can switch between with this button 13 programmable buttons and you can adjust your DPI on-the-fly now one of the coolest Logitech features that they really introduced so here let's go through what's in here but I'll talk about the scroll wheel in a minute so you've got an extension cord for the wireless receiver and it does not use the same unified wireless receiver that their other products are capable of connecting to this is a special one and it is just for your gaming mouse because the data rates required are higher than on their consumer grade products so there you go this extension cable is about I don't know but a little less than a Linus arm spin so it must be around 5 feet long and then you can run that to somewhere where you're going to have good reception there are flat bottom pieces here so you can stick it to something to do whatever else you want with it we've also got a cable that can be used to charge the mouse or run in Wired mode so this one right here is not braided or anything like that in fact out of all the mice I've seen so far from their new GS series the G 500s is the only one that's had a braided cable it doesn't really affect performance but it's one of those premium feeling things that I wouldn't have minded seeing if they could include it so you can see how it plugs in right here so you can plug it in to charge unplug it to not charge and it'll look just like a wired mouse when you are not operating it in that fashion let's have a look at what else they've got included here looks like a set up guide plug the thing into the thing and all likely had warranty information it does have a three year warranty it should be noted that Logitech's warranty is absolutely legendary and I've personally experienced it in the past many times they don't even require you to ship the product back to them at all so here's the battery oh I'd love to see that if you guys have been watching my videos for any kind of period of time you'll know I love sanyo eneloop so I guess their planet Panasonic whatever well this one still has the Sanyo branding on it I love any loops they're the best rechargeable batteries they're awesome and the cool thing about enna loops is it means your G 700s is going to arrive ready to play you don't have to charge it before you use it because they hold a charge incredibly well there's an on/off switch at the bottom so you can turn it off when you're in transit and they have enormous non-slip enormous slippy pads on the bottom of the mouse this doesn't affect how much friction the mouse has with the surface below it because it's not how friction works but what it does do is it effectively makes the mouse more durable because there's little hair there there's more surface to rub off over time so that's I guess how they're getting that 250 kilometer durability on the mouse itself so let's go ahead and let's get this get this mouse going over here so we've got a right-handed shape which we've come to expect from logitech gaming mice they don't have a left-handed Mouse I kind of wish they do one and I know that many left-handed gamers do but it's a very ergonomic shape now you can see here this is designed for palm the shape here it fits right into your palm and you can quite comfortably especially if you have slightly larger hands than me I have quite small hands so you can see there's a fair bit of space left at the end of the buttons and my index finger sits in such a way that I'm kind of between these two so if you had medium sized hands you'd sit right here where you can very easily press this one this one or this one so those are the g8g 9 and g10 buttons these are fully programmable buttons and your hand would also sit a little bit more forward on the mouse and you know be a little bit more comfortable so I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for people with super small hands like I have on the side of the most you've got four more G buttons as well as the battery indicator at a very very nice coating finish here we've seen this already on some of the other GS series mice and it's equally impressive here however I haven't used them for long enough to get my hands sweaty to the point where I've observed the difference in the hydrophobic coating now back to the scroll wheel this is such an awesome Logitech feature I I love it so normally it's a clicky scroll wheel here I'm going to hold it up to a mic up here so you guys guys can hear but that clique can you hear that all right awesome now check this out by pressing this gear button this disengaged button here free spin so if you don't use your mouse only for gaming and you also use it for work or maybe you want to bind something to like a bajillion scroll wheel flick so you can just flick the mouse you can browse through excel sheets web pages whatever else very very quickly you just go flick stop when you see the thing you want to see and it's absolutely awesome I believe this button right yep this button right here is cycling through the DPI profiles so we got one two three four five different dpi profiles just by clicking on that button up at the top but you can rebind the g buttons to whatever you want so the total number of buttons is count them up with me one two three one on the click right there by sort accounts because it only does this so 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 buttons let's see if that's what they say on the box because maybe I missed one but you know what they don't seem to say it all so thank you for checking out my own may say 13 what will be back I figured it out this mouse balls so hard it has a tilting scroll wheel forgot about that so 4 on the side which I can reach easily even with my smaller hands 3 over here on the left which I can reach 2 of easily and there's a third one that I could reach but it'd be a little bit tough so at 7 total 8 9 10 11 12 13
