Logitech G1

Post by TheKnight »

Do you know does anyone sell those mouses anymore? Since mine is broken and I tried Logitech LS1 Laser and it moves too fast when I move it, even with slovest mode (And too small btw).
I tried to ask around but didn't find anything, thats the best mouse ever made :P

You should get either one of those. I have G7 and it works like magic (I made huge winterbells records with it :D). My friend has G5 and it is really good too.

mx518 is still the best mouse on this planet as of right now.

G5 is good too.

Btw, the thing you are talking about OP, sounds like a high DPI setting you don't know about :P

i don't knwo much about computers, and I've seen G5 and G7, but I think they are too...gamer like mouses to me, and aren't they quite bigger than G1?
G1 fits perfectly to my Hand, and Im mostly looking price under 40€...
And si there somekind of extra buttons in G5 or G7? Like Left and Right clikc and scroll is enough for me :)

I've got a MX500. Basically the cheapo version of the ones above. Logitech hit it big with this design, it's great.

G5 and G7 has one extra button and 2 buttons which you use to change cursor speed. And they are not that expencive anymore. I guess the price is around 40€.

The g5 and g7 and mx518 have a special design to counter RSI (mouse wrist).

They take a little bit getting used to but you will notice a difference, you won't get a sore wrist after holding it a longer while. You will with that design of the g1 and all standard mice these days.

Mx518 (and mx500 as well) are still better than the g5 because they have better tracking.

G5 is great because of the weight bracket. It's not just some sales tactic although it does sound like that. I have max weight in mine and I love it. (s&s steelpad 40x45 cm).

I have the G5, and personally, I love it. I've had it for years and it helps a lot. The MX518 is also a good choice. Yes, it is a gamers mouse, therefore a lot bigger than conventional mice -- but you get used to it. The side buttons help for when I am talking on Ventrilo/Teamspeak, etc...

I have G7 and I have been using it for 3-4 years. Never had sore wrist.

Same here :)

I have had the mx518 for at least 4 years and now I have the G5.

The design is really great for your arms condition. If you move on to one of these from a simple cheap mouse (like the G1's design) you can tell the difference after a few hours.

Not too keen on Razer mice myself.

I've had some bad experiences with them.

In my opinion razer mice are toys with OMGLIGHTS.
