Logitech Announces New PC Gaming Peripherals

wireless gaming mouse? review please!

Key bord

Way too expensive, unless you are a professional gamer. I'm not, so cut those prices in half, then we'll talk.

Finally! Replacements for my old G7 and G15 that are actually worthy of the name! The mouse and keyboards look so good. Now they need something that can actually compete with the Belkin n52.

Must be nice to be able to drop $380 on accessories. Having said that, more power to the folks who can get them. That mouse looks particularly interesting!

That mouse would be sick if it weren't wireless

Voice morphing for the headset....now the possibilities with that could be endless...

Their G7 is excellent for gaming. I've used it for years. When my last one gave out a year ago, I couldn't find a better mouse, so I went to ebay and got a used one. Odd thing is the used ones sell for almost the original retail price of $80 and new ones in the box sell for close to $120 now. It's just that good of a mouse. The batteries are easily swappable, have an external charger, and it comes with 2 batteries, so one is always charged. (I now have 5 batteries, making for a nice stockpile of charged batteries.) There's also no lag, if you position the receiver right. It's a great mouse.

i'll stick with my wired G9 and G13, thankyou.

The keyboard looks awesome and so does the mouse.. Though that many programmable buttons are massive overkill for even the hardest of the hardcore professional gamer or enthusiast.. Am not sure i'd ever opt for a wireless gaming mouse though.. I prefer the wired stuff..

...how is the g510 really any different from the g15 revision one? it sounds like it has exactly the same things save for the adjustable screen on the first g15.

i mean i own the g15 r1 and unless logitech added something that they didn't list here, imo the r1 looks better with the same capabilities.

tell me if i'm wrong.

I still like my Alienware TactX Headset, Logitech G9x, and Logitech MX5500 keyboard

That new keyboard is no different than the G19.

The new keyboard has a color lcd screen(might be limited to the backlighting color), I'm guessing a higher resolution on it as well. It also has the g110's media controls and the sound and mic plugs.

if anything this is a true g15 v2. since really the other g15 remakes/remodels were awful compared to the g15 v1.

Can someone please explain this to me: How can a headset with (presumably) 2 speakers (one in each ear) provide true 7.1 surround sound? I though the definition of 7.1 was 7 physical speakers surrounding the user and then one additional subwoofer. If they are talking about simulated 7.1 surround, then it should state that. But even that is weak because what makes it 7.1, or 10.1 or 1000.1 if you are only simulating surround sound? Any stereo headphones can make it sound like the sound is coming from any point around you, provided the software is well written.

Is it just me, or are these high end gaming mice and keyboards getting more and more expensive? In other words there's no set defined price points. Every time a new high end product comes out, it's simply priced higher then its predecessor. I remember when the MX518, the highest end gaming mouse from Logitech was $45... oh wait, it's still around that price.

I love my G15 keyboard, and this looks like nice replacement when the time comes. If only more programs took advantage of the cool LCD.

I use my wireless Logitech mouse and keyboard when I game and have no problems!

the G15 was love at first sight for me, but the clankity keys now entrenched in dust and food residue, never made it silent-soft type friendly. I'm hoping the G510 brings silent soft taps, a-la-microsoft

The mouse has a "Data Over Cable" option. I wonder how long that option would last if I kept them connected all the time. I don't like wireless mice.

I used a wireless mouse for years but after one too many extremely inconvenient incidents of the battery running out (or a popup warning about my battery causing a minimization) I went back to wired and I am much happier. I absolutely love my G500. The only wireless mice I don't have much issue with are the Wacom ones (due to the lack of a battery), but they're not really designed for gaming.

$380 for this stuff? damn it might be latest and high quality but wow.

you could always just leave the plug in haha

wow, 2 MMO mice on Tom's news in 1 day....but again, I'll stick to my WIRED Razer Naga with 17 buttons.

So the keyboard is basically a new G11?

The mouse looks nice. I've got a razer mamba right now and it's complete garbage, from the shoddy software to the sub 8 hour battery life. Personally I'd like to see a wireless mouse "round up" review!

The G11 was just a G15 v1 without a screen, and was released around the time of the release of disappointing G15 v2, which had notably fewer programmable buttons at a higher price which in part raised the public outcry among its loyal fans. This keyboard is much closer to the original G15 at significantly and unjustifiably greater cost.
Screw you, Logitech, you had your chance at reconciliation and you blew it.
Now, if it had 3 banks of 8 keys instead of 6, then it would really be an "improvement" over the original G15 (in theory), and only then would it possible be worth the higher cost.


Yes it is. Doesn't have a full-color LCD screen. It is a direct successor of the original G15. G19 is a significantly overpriced joke.


Not for hardcore MMO players who absolutely MUST have every on-screen button hot-keyed to a physical key on their keyboard.
By the way, complete sentences have only one period (count them). Ones that you finish up later or otherwise trail off have three…which together is called an ellipses. They are NOT suitable substitutes for commas, however. [/GrammarNazi]

Now make the same Wireless Headset for BLUETOOTH connectivity and you can market it as a PS3 Exclusive. I'd buy it for my PS3. I hate the loop over the ear ones. I wear one all day for work. I don't like to have to also where one for gaming. Give me the BOSE Quality, Noise Canceling Cover the Ear headset with and an adjustable microphone and we are in business.

Hmmmm, that G700 rat looks suspiciously like the MX1000, which I have under my paw here now, speaking of WIRELESS rats, I have been using them for at least 5 years now and find them to be just as good as "the other kind", I play FPS games all the time, my present time waster[I'm retired, and over 60+] is F.E.A.R. II, for which a precision mouse is almost required equipment.
I read [somewhere][certainly not on Tom's] about some fool yapping about batteries going dead in a wireless rat and, I wondered if they knew how to use the escape key whilst they changed baaaaa-ttries....

OMG Gimmie! Must...have...NOWWW!!!

g700 looks awesome. I still use an MX1000 and have been waiting for a suitable replacement. I think they finally made one that isn't garbage!
