Logitech G400s is a pretty good mouse despite its flaws, of which there are many. For the most part it takes every good aspect of its predecessor and improves it. The build is pretty similar, but with a new coating that is afraid of sweat and other...

If you’re in the market for a gaming mouse, avoid the G400s. It is a mediocre gaming mouse at best, and a real fall from form for Logitech at the worst.

But if you’re looking for something to spoil yourself with, I’d encourage you to consider something with a higher price tag.

While it lacks the million buttons so many gaming mouse try to throw at you today, for some of us, this simple button setup is perfect. This is a solid gaming mouse and worth consideration in your peripheral purchasing.

While it probably won’t impress professional gamers, it is an excellent mouse for beginners and casual gamers, that offers a decent set of specs for something at its price level.
