Customer Review: GREATEST MOUSE EVER

After purchasing this mouse I can honestly say my fraggin of my enemies has increased dramatically. Having a mouse that can keep up with your movements is something of a beauty and I only wished I had invested in one earlier in my gaming career.

After 3 weeks use, there is no doult that G5 is the best game mouse I have used.Customer Review: A bitter disappointment over time...
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this mouse about a year and a half ago to upgrade from my MX518 which is an amazing mouse for the price... well, the G5 was certainly an improvement, smoother, wouldn't 'jump' like an optical would sometimes on shiny surfaces, etc. To make this review short here are the Pros and Cons.
Pros:
*Easy to use.
*Software is easy to install, understand and tweak to your preference.
*Smoooooth!
*Long cable protected by what appears to be a nylon cover.
*Ergonomic.
*Has weights to mod the weight to your preference.
*Pinpoint accuracy.
*The 3 adjustable sensitivity settings are a blessing, specially for games like Battlefield 2 which for me, require higher sensitivity on a vehicle like a Tank or Jet and a lower sensitivity as a sniper.
Cons:
*Mouse cable gets cut easily over time, yes, the nylon cover for some reason will start coming off after 3-4 months of normal use!
*Mouse feet are a joke! The main one was worn smooth in about 6 months of use [On a normal mouse pad!] making it a pain to use. It should've come with replacement feet from the beginning.
*The wheel... oh boy, at the beginning it was nice and smooth, one month later it was THE WORST mouse wheel in history, I was warned about this but I ignored it, well if you google Logitech G5 and mouse-wheel you will see what I'm talking about, it's the biggest flaw on the G5 series. It becomes overly sensitive and with the slightest touch it moves, you will notice it to be VERY annoying if you play FPS games where you change weapons with your mouse-wheel!
*The mouse cable is flimsy and will rip over time with NORMAL use, mine just died yesterday after a horrible month of it randomly turning on and off all the time! I'm going to send it to Logitech for repairs [still under warranty] and get myself instead a G9 and leave the G5 as a replacement.
In summary... get an MX518, G9 or a Razer Death-Adder gaming mouse, the G5 is nice, but for the price I'd expect better quality. Son... I am disappoint. =[
