It blends into the office environment so the boss can give you props for purchasing productive hardware when in secret you’ve bought something built for PC gaming. That said, there’s no visual flare with the G603. But that low power draw is also due to the absence of any kind of illumination on the device, which is typically a feature on many PC gaming peripherals. Logitech is extremely confident in the peripheral’s low power consumption, and its high performance stemming from the Hero sensor and the Lightspeed wireless technology. What you won’t find on the G603 mouse is a USB port. All buttons can be configured through Logitech’s free desktop software. It consists of the right and left click buttons, a clickable mouse wheel, a button for adjusting the sensitivity, and two thumb buttons mounted on the left side. It’s simple in design and built for right-handed users. The mouse itself doesn’t look like a gaming peripheral. Along with the two battery beds, you’ll also see a small compartment for storing the mini USB dongle. These can be added and replaced by simply removing the top plate comprising of the palm rest and mouse buttons, which appear to be held into place with magnets. The mouse relies on two AA batteries, but if you’re using Lightspeed Low Power or Bluetooth modes, you can use only one battery. That said, the High Mode promises four to six months of battery time, and the Low Mode (along with Bluetooth) promises 18 months. A report rate is how many times the mouse updates the parent PC with its position, and a faster report rate requires more energy. The Low Mode has an eight-millisecond report rate while Bluetooth ranges between 7.5 and 11.25 milliseconds. The mouse can even connect via Bluetooth if you don’t want to deal with the miniature USB-based Wi-Fi dongle.Īccording to Logitech, the Lightspeed High Mode has a high, one-millisecond report rate, which is what you want for PC gaming. But the company introduced Lightspeed High and Low modes because office work just doesn’t require high precision input. Because of the high-performance low-power Hero sensor, Logitech says the mouse already increases battery life. As previously stated, the peripheral relies on Logitech’s Lightspeed wireless technology, promising wired-like connectivity. But with Hero, Logitech can update the firmware with fixes, optimizations, and “use-case” changes.īut the Hero sensor is just one piece of the G603 puzzle. Typically, mouse firmware is locked, making changes to the tracking algorithms and the sensor’s communication process with the mouse processor impossible. But one of the Hero sensor’s highlights is that it relies on unlocked firmware. Of course, there’s a lot more going on with the Hero sensor than what’s described in our simplification.
