What we like about Logitech G300S

  • Ambidextrous design is comfortable for both left and right-handed users
  • Highly affordable price point, often cited as excellent value for money
  • Nine programmable buttons are well-placed on top rather than the sides
  • Onboard memory allows storing up to three profiles for use on different PCs
  • Lightweight and compact build is ideal for claw and fingertip grip styles
  • Reliable software (Logitech Gaming Software) for easy macro and lighting customization

What we don't like about Logitech G300S

  • Too small for users with large hands, especially those who prefer a palm grip
  • Wired cable is frequently described as stiff and prone to curling or fraying
  • Commonly reported 'double-click' issue where switches fail after several months of use
  • Maximum DPI is limited to 2500, which is low compared to modern gaming mice
  • Restricted RGB options with only 7 preset colors and no advanced effects
  • Scroll wheel can feel 'sandy' or less smooth than more premium models

Verdict

The Logitech G300s is a compact, wired optical gaming mouse featuring a symmetrical, ambidextrous design and nine programmable buttons positioned primarily on the top edges for easy reach. It offers a gaming-grade sensor with a sensitivity range of 250 to 2500 DPI, a 1-millisecond report rate, and onboard memory capable of storing up to three user profiles with eight configurable lighting colors. Main pros include its affordability, lightweight 82g build, and highly customizable button layouts via software, making it versatile for both gaming and productivity. However, common cons include its relatively small size which may be uncomfortable for users with large hands or a palm grip, a stiff plastic cable, and limited compatibility with modern macOS versions.
