Low-cost accessory with high-tech appeal
- April 29, 2020[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Low-cost accessory with high-tech appeal There is no shortage of high-tech gaming peripherals on the market, and they range from inexpensive to not, and from gimmicky to necessity of function. This Logitech G203 mouse sits in the pocket for me, low on the cost factor, and high on necessity. It offers accurate controls, a tremendous amount of customization flexibility, yet simple basic plug-and-play functions, and looks darn cool with a gradually swirling LED ring around the exterior edges. PROS ——— +highly accurate +200 - 8,000 DPI gaming-grade sensor +six-programmable buttons +customizable lighting adjustments +perfect “clicky” buttons offering satisfying feedback +G-HUB utilization with other Logitech accessories +price CONS ——— -light weight plastic feels cheaply made, I prefer more heft -thin cord -wired

I liked it but I didn't love it
- December 26, 2022[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked it but I didn't love it. I use it with my laptop and it works amazing for me, I think if I find it wireless on sale I'll buy it immediately. I recommend it if you will use it on a PC.

Great value mouse
- August 30, 2024[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good mouse. The 3200 DPI is nice when gaming with limited space and the lights and sensitivity can all be customized through the Logitech App on PC. Very nice!

Classic Look and Feel backed by Modern Software
- April 27, 2020[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The G203 LIGHTSYNC is a budget friendly mouse with a classic look and feel, backed up by modern G HUB software. It is dubbed a gaming mouse, but it doesn’t scream gaming whatsoever. Yet it is able to hold its own on the gaming front and still be a great daily driver for those that split their time with work and play. And it is priced right as you get a lot of value here. A few main hardware points...the mouse houses an 8000 DPI sensor, has mouse buttons that provide that “click” feedback (they call it Mental Spring Button Tensioning) and a light bar that supports the LIGHTSYNC ecosystem. The mouse has a total of 6 buttons. Aside from the hardware, the biggest drive to this mouse is its software. It seems to be the norm for most peripherals as you can do many things to customize your experience with it. The Great: I thoroughly enjoy the mouse click feedback. That is probably my most favorite aspect of the mouse. The mouse tracks fine, all the way up to 8000 DPI, but I never go past 3000 for my gaming/work use. The light bar, used in conjunction with LIGHTSYNC , is pretty sweet. I like how I can make the RGB sync up to what’s showing on my screen. They are very bright lights. Truth be told, this only really makes a visual impact when you’re looking at your PC setup from a distance. If you’re actually using the mouse, you won’t notice anything. The Okay: It does have classic ergonomics, and it may be a deal breaker for those that are used to their modern ergo mouse. I felt that the mouse somewhat lacked contours for hand support, as I’m used to having a mouse fit in the palm of my hand. I also thought it would have been a plus to add another DPI button so that I don’t have to cycle through my settings just to get to my sensitivity of choice. I also felt that the G HUB lagged in reporting when I switched from DPI to DPI.

One of the best gaming mouse for the price
- January 23, 2021[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this items a couple months ago and it still works in perfect condition. The RGB is very nice and you can change the brightness and RGB with the software. The side buttons feel very nice and overall I would give this product a 10/10 especially for the price.

A gamer must have....
- April 25, 2020[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a huge fan of Logitech computer accessories. It seems I have more than my share of Logitech device at home, from keyboards and mice to webcams and game controllers. You name it, I own it, or have used it. With a legendary name like Logitech, that has been around for eons they have made plentiful products that impact every day computing user’s lives. So when the opportunity came up to complete my ‘gaming’ devices, I sprung for this new G203 Lightsync mouse to compliment my G15 Lightsync keyboard. The mouse, like all Logitech products, is a quality well-made product. It is well weighted, comfortable, and effective in being a gaming mouse. I love the new ethos of Logitech, with its Lightsync feature. Now both my keyboard and mouse work by the same Logitech G-Hub software, controlling the light combination is a snap. The super bright lights on this mouse that identify the “G” is a pleasant reminder that there is something more to this than just the colorful lights. The LED’s within the mouse feature a full 16.8 million colors that can be set to several ‘moods’. Personally I love the “ocean wave”. The new version of this G203 has a 200-8000 DPI scanning cursor tracking scanner. This is an improvement from the previous model which was limited to 6000 DPI. A DPI is a number of “Dots Per Inch”, an industry-standard term for the sample resolution. More dots, more detail, and in theory for gaming, finer control of the mouse. The exterior of the mouse does not seem to have changed from the previous model and features the same 6 button layout that people are familiar with. Out of the box, the mouse does have a few neat tricks up its sleeve. The two buttons on the side allow you to quickly move between pages (forward or back a page) while web browsing. The center button behind the wheel allows you to quickly change the DPI resolution, and hence the response speed of the mouse (its a 4 step change by default). The G-Hub software allows you to change a lot of the default settings on the mouse (much like the keyboard). Among the more interesting options is the assignment of buttons for individual games. One can reassign the buttons to whatever keyboard function you want to duplicate on the mouse. For example, you are going to be copying and pasting a lot of data, one can map the G4 and G5 (back and front page) side buttons to copy and paste. I mapped my “reload” and “buy” buttons for CS:GO to speed up gaming. This adjustment of the buttons to meet the tasks is a neat feature of the G-Hub software. The G-Hub software also has special pre-built macro’s ready to deploy if you use Discord, Overwolf, or OBS as part of your gaming/streaming/twitch world. This makes things like mute/deafen, capture video/screenshot, streaming/replay, quite a snap. I don’t particularly use Discord a whole lot these days, but there is a large group of people who do. Gaming experience: I played quite a few hours of Counter-Strike Global Offensive before writing this review. Did the mouse improve my game sniping skills? Well, I’d like to say it did, or maybe it’s the excess gaming that I have been doing while “social distancing” at home, but generally, the transfer to this mouse from my old mouse did improve on my kills. Could it be that there was a slight imperceivable lag on my old wireless (Logitech) mouse that the wired version sped up, but my gaming definitely was fun and much improved. The mouse also worked well with Dota2, but that game is not as intense as CS:GO, but features lots of clicking. The clicking action is very good, rapid, and responsive. I would recommend a mousepad to be used with this mouse, even a cheap basic one does SO much better than not using one. The feel of the mouse on a pad is incredible vs. going without one. Overall, the mouse is a good addition to my collection of Logitech devices. If you are a gamer, and you are gaming a lot, it is well worth it. I also found this mouse good for graphics editing, as you can assign special keys to the mouse, and also the increased DPI helps to edit images with increased accuracy - I actually found that useful when editing some pictures in Lightroom.

Perfect cool mouse
- February 19, 2021[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome mouse for the price. Great colors. Bought for my son for at home school. He uses an old (2012) mac all-in-one. Just plugged it in and started using, very easy.

Great Budget Mouse
- April 27, 2020[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] RGB color is nice touch on a mouse in this price range. It has enough sensitivity to play PC games, and the two main buttons have consistent action. The side buttons are not quite as accurate -- they can feel a bit spongy and seems at times I have to make sure I click them. Overall the mouse is comfortable, but it's build for small to medium hands. Large hands may find it small, or require a "fingertip" grip. Great for throwing into your bag with a laptop. If you're on a budget and don't want to or can't spend $40+ on a mouse, this is a great choice. THE GOOD Well built design, especially given the price. Excellent performance CONS Physical size suitable for small or medium hands. Side buttons a bit spongy.

Outstanding budget gaming mouse.
- April 27, 2020[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve always used gaming mice since they were introduced to the market years ago. They were always better than the old style MS mouse with the roller ball “yep I’ve been gaming a long time”. And wanted a better mouse for our AOI but didn’t want to spend a lot for something I don’t game on but wanted something better than the one included with the system. The Logitech G203 is filling the bill on with this one. Unpacking and setting up: The mouse is packed in usual Logitech fashion, with the mouse, instructions and a Logitech logo sticker in the box. The mouse itself if pretty basic. It’s wired so there’s no dongle, and the cable is nice and long, around 7’. I was actually surprised how little this one weighs, there isn’t much weight to it at all so if you like a very light mouse this one will be for you. There are two buttons on the left side and one on top below the scroll wheel used for changing DPI. You can use this mouse without installing the Logitech G Hub software but you won’t have much control over all the functions. I went ahead and installed the software on our AIO unit and proceeded to set it up. With the software you can control the buttons and set them the way you like. The lighting is something unique with this one, the “G” logo and a strip that runs around the shell below the buttons and palm rest area can be configured to whatever lighting you would like. There’s really no limit on colors and you can pick pretty much anything from the rainbow. You can also control how fast / slow some of the effects run and there is a brightness control along with it. Use: This mouse, for the price performs excellently, it’s very accurate and smooth. I’ve set some DPI presets with the control software and all you have to do is press the button below the scroll wheel to cycle through them. For gaming this one seems to be every bit as fast and accurate as any of my other gaming mice and didn’t have a single issue with it. The scroll wheel is a little on the light side for my preference “it’s not weighted like the others I have” and is a little stiffer to roll, “sure that will loosen up over time”. Now if you like a very light mouse you’ll like this one, “I prefer a heavier mouse”, it weighs in at 83g on my scale, while my G604 is 127G and my old G500s is 134g, the G203 is a lot lighter in comparison, only the G Pro is lighter at 79g. Also the shape of it makes it easy to use right or left handed “just the side buttons are on the left and can’t be moved. It’s not contoured for single handed use and is shaped more like the G Pro. Conclusion: If you are budgeting and don’t want to spend a lot on a high end gaming mouse, or just want a very good mouse for everyday use this one will fit the bill. It’s light, very accurate and you can customize the DPI, buttons and lighting any way you like. This would also make a great first time gaming mouse for younger gamers at home.
