Verdict

The Lenovo Legion M200 RGB is a budget-friendly wired gaming mouse designed for beginners, featuring an ambidextrous five-button layout and a reliable optical sensor. Key specifications include a 4-level adjustable DPI ranging from 1,000 to 2,400, a 500 fps frame rate, 30 IPS maximum tracking speed, and a durable 1.8-meter braided cable. Its main pros are the plug-and-play simplicity that requires no extra software, a comfortable sculpted design for long sessions, and an attractive 7-color circulating RGB backlight. However, notable cons include the inability to customize the lighting effects, a relatively heavy weight of approximately 150g, and side buttons that are not remappable via official software.
