The Logitech G Pro gaming mouse is the entry-level rodent in Logitech's Pro series of products for competitive hardcore PC gamers. Less flashy than the G series, which tends to look like a small robot in the process of transforming, it has an understated design that emphasizes performance above all else.
It's been a long time since we last saw a wired Logitech Pro Gaming Mouse (about eight years), and we were surprised to find that while they've been upgraded on the surface, the design has changed little. factor.
Upgrades, such as the Hero 25K optical sensor, give it a maximum DPI of 25,600. It's not the lightest mouse, but it's not pitted like the Glorious Model O and feels light enough. If you play twitch shooters like CS: GO or Valorant, it should be able to do some damage. I'm not particularly fond of ultralight gaming mice, as they feel like they could be crushed with just a little effort. [Especially in Diablo IV, where exploding dozens of corpses with the Necromancer gives me a sense of satisfaction with every click. But for me, the ultimate test is always the shooter. In Fortnite, I'm happy to report that I've been able to hold my own, especially with precision weapons like the ridiculously powerful thermal DMR in the latest season.
The G Pro has a snappy feel and is responsive to both the right and left mouse buttons thanks to the low click latency. The two side buttons are in the most ideal position for my thumb, so I didn't have to exert too much force. I often bind my melee attacks to one of these buttons, so the last thing I want is for my thumb to be searching for a button when I want to beat someone up in Call of Duty Warzone. Again, this is a classic design, and I'm not surprised that not much has changed.
Again, the six-button mouse is not flashy, but I like the RGB light strip that runs along the top of the palm half of the G Pro. This RGB customization is all handled by the Logitech G Hub app, mouse sensitives, and button assignments. Thankfully, the G HUB is one of the better hardware management software available and is quite easy to use.
The design mostly works for me. I wish the mouse had a textured grip or (even grip tape). During a tense battle inside the Citadel in Fortnite, I felt a slight slippage as my hands started to get a little nibbled.
I wouldn't have minded if Logitech had gone with an ambidextrous design like the G Pro Wireless with buttons on both sides, which gives left-handers some love. I myself am a left-handed gamer and am forced to play PC games with my right hand at all times.
The Logitech G Pro won't wow you with its looks. It is a tried and true design, unless you expect a lot of features.
But if you don't care about thumb rests or extra buttons, and you need high-quality gaming performance that will last for under $100, the Logitech G Pro is your rodent.
