Krepak Tue, 05 Jan 2010 00:29:46 +0000 http://www.iboldesign.com/store/logitech-gaming-mouse-g500/#comment-9885 I previously was using the MX518. The G500 is the same size. I have small hands and as other reviewers noted the DPI and macro buttons are not as easy to use due to their location and smaller size. If it wasn't for that I would rate it 5 stars. It shouldn't be a problem for people with average to large hands. Easy to setup and program. Movement is smooth and responsive for quick action. Perfect for games. The scroll wheel is very smooth and compared to other mice scrolls effortlessly so it takes a little getting used. (The button just below allows you to scroll smoothly without click stops.) I like the feel of it without the weights so haven't tried them. I've not relegated the MX518 to backup. Rating: 4 / 5 I previously was using the MX518. The G500 is the same size.

Admittedly, I'm parent not a gamer, so I can't tell you how my frag rate has improved on Half-Life, but for everyday use this mouse is simply the most comfortable I've ever had. After many experiments with cordless (Bluetooth and IR) mice I've come to the conclusion that I prefer the cord - interference with other electronic devices is a problem in our house, and a corded mouse puts the kibosh on that. My only minor gripe is that the feel of the scroll wheel stepper is a little rough - it's unselectable with a button just behind the wheel, and I have mine turned off, but I do slightly prefer the feel of stepping on the scroll sheel to match page up/down shifts in web browsers. Apart from that very minor complaint, though, this mouse is flawless. The weights make a real difference to the feel - I prefer deliberate movement, so I have all the max weights installed in the base. The left and right click buttons are smooth and cause no stress on my hand (compared with a Dell Bluetooth mouse which was giving me carpal tunnel due to the tremendous pressure required just to click). <br /> <br />Don't be fooled by the "gaming" tag - this is about as good a mouse as you could ask for, for any application.

If I knew this upfront I wouldn't have payed for express shipping or I might have bought it some were else. Rating: 1 / 5 Amazon says it is in stock but that’s a lie.
