Logitech G7 Wireless Mouse

We would like to thank Logitech, Kate Brinks, Pamela McCracken and all the staff at Logitech.

It may seem we are fan boys of your company but great service and products make us so.

Logitech shows us what a great bit of hardware is and goes that extra mile to help it's customers.

I've had many dealings with companies in my years and some were good others were making you get a gun bad.

But even when I thought I was um SOL with a Logitech item just of late they did something that makes me say Thank YOU

(Yung To<that's for you and your co-workers) and puts your faith back in good customer service.

I cannot stress this enough to the end-user.

it's not only the product but also the company and folks behind said company you have to also take into the matter.

Now even more then ever with fraud and all that other stuff going on.

Ok, Ok now back to the item at hand (beat me later guys) the Logitech G7 cordless gamming mouse.

When we got the Logitech G7 we were foaming at the mouth.

I like wireless keyboards and mice it helps cut down on the cord clutter and

Is just so easy to take with you to the LAN.

I always test products with out drivers first.

Why you may ask is this:

One most it's that don't need drivers will work with Linux (so far true for Logitech items).

It lets me get an ideal if the drivers aid or hamper performance plus if it works in Linux.

Which it does at least in Mepis (Debian based).

The mouse works well and I feel is on par with the Razer Copper head which we are also reviewing.

Where the G7 beats the Copperhead though is the hardware based sensitivity control.

I could adjust the G7's sensitivity but not the Copperhead under Linux.

Although both worked in Linux.

This is no small feet for use under Linux this mouse shows up as a mouse not a human interface device.

Which not all Linux distros work well with?

To me the G7 has a better feel then the Copperhead because of the size of the Copperhead.

I like the smaller feel of the G7 but this is just my preference

Another of my issues with mice are the cords with the G7 it's a not an issue with the Copperhead it is.

Once again Logitech come through with a product that fills the need of the gamer and every day computer user.

Now if our hardware all worked with out driver software we would be in heaven.

Pros:

Works without drivers in Windows and Linux

Can be used from the couch with out any issue at all

(I used it from across a store with the computer in a back room).

Keeps charge well

Really good performance in games.

Cons:

The drivers work well but when the product works well without them they should be kept to a min.

Issue with our unit that the battery was hard to get to stay in its slot in the mouse so that it would power up,

Even though it was in and all looked well it at times needed to be pushed in more for the unit to work.

Not an issue to me but I've been told bye my other reviewer they should have used standard rechargeable batteries etc to keep away from proprietary issues.

The End

All in all I'd say go get this mouse if your in the market for a new mouse.

The Logitech G7 is here for your gamming ,media center pc etc needs.

More pictures will be released soon and posted.
