<a href="https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/get-a-fan-favourite-wireless-logitech-g305-gaming-mouse-for-24#comments"> 2 </a> <br>Yesterday I brought you word that <a href="https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/your-favourite-gaming-mouse-is-going-cheap-at-amazon-uk">some of Logitech's most popular gaming mice were on sale</a> at Amazon UK, and now I'm back to say that you should spare a thought for a lesser-known cult favourite: the Logitech G305 Lightspeed. This wireless mouse is going for just £24, an absolute bargain price for a critically-acclaimed gaming mouse with a high-end Hero optical sensor, six programmable buttons, a lightweight design and rock-solid wireless. <br>So why this mouse over the more popular G502 and G502 Lightspeed? Well, this mouse is cheaper, for one, with the G502 Lightspeed costing £58 even at its current sale price - more than double what you'll pay for this lovely G305. The G305 is also a lighter, svelter and smaller mouse, making it much better suited for FPS and other fast-paced games where a bigger, heavier mouse can be harder to flick into position. <br>The specs here are suprisingly solid too, given the price. It uses the same Lightspeed wireless tech as found on the more expensive G502 Lightspeed and G Pro Wireless, which is faster than a wired connection in some circumstances and just as reliable - in my many years of using it, I've never once had the mouse bug out, fail to connect or indeed exhibit any unusual behaviour whatsoever. There's also a Logitech Hero sensor which performs well and sips power, contributing to the mouse's endurance rating of up to 300 hours.<br>That brings us to the battery. As I mentioned <a href="https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/a-wireless-logitech-gaming-mouse-for-22-is-an-incredible-deal">the last time this mouse went on sale</a>, you can swap out the included AA battery for a rechargeable Lithium Ion AAA battery and an adapter to hold it in place in the AA slot. See where I'm going with this? With a small hit to battery life, you get a significantly lighter mouse (84g vs 99g), allowing the G305 to enter the realms of the ultra-light and unlocking even more performance in flicky first person shooters.<br>This kind of enterprising discovery is emblematic of the G305, which has become a kind of cult classic amongst mice enthusiasts. There have been <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/search?q=g305+flair%3Amod&restrict_sr=on&sort=top&t=all">hundreds of projects</a> that use the G305's rock solid sensor and wireless combo as the base, but swap in 3D printed shells, new mechanical switches and even entirely new features. Just look at <a href="https://www.yeggi.com/q/g305/">the number of 3D printed designs</a> available online!<br>You might not be that into that side of mouse modding, but I think it does speak to how well Logitech nailed the essentials here, and you can definitely feel it using the mouse in its completely stock form. There's a lot of love for this mouse out there, and it doesn't happen by accident!<br>Finally, before I leave you, I'd also like to mention that the G305 comes in a nice selection of colours. None of them are quite as cheap as the standard black model at £27, but they're worth the premium if you're partial to particular shades. There's <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07W5JK8YR?tag=rps-m-21">blue</a>, <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07W5JHX84?tag=rps-m-21">lilac</a>, <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07W7LM8SS?tag=rps-m-21">seafoam green</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07CGNP3RH?tag=rps-m-21">white</a> - nice huh? <br>That just about does it, so thanks for joining me once again and I'll catch you next time!<br> <a href="/authors/will-judd">Will Judd</a> <br> Senior Staff Writer, Digital Foundry <br> Will Judd is a journeyman from the forges of Digital Foundry, here to spread the good word about hardware deals and StarCraft. <br>Subscribe and get access to supporter-only articles, an ad-free reading experience, free gifts, and game discounts.
