Logitech G305 Review - Basically a G Pro Wireless for 2.5 TIMES LESS! 

lets be honest...his wife just wanted his G pro wireless from the start...she just said a 'white mouse' to cover up

basically a G pro wireless and literally a G pro wired, but wireless.

U can actually get the weight down to around 80g by changing the battery to a lithium triple A battery and use plastic adapter or tin foil

This was the best review I have seen out of the 20 videos from other youtubers, you went through everything and actually used it for considerable time, thank you for your work

This is the best review of this mouse yet and directly answered all my questions. You also went into the background and context of your use cases and decision making to help me understand what your situation was. This greatly increased my confidence that this was the right mouse for me. Thanks! Gets here in a few days and I can't wait.

i love how straight forward that intro was. subscribed...(mentioning the spoiler alert part)

Wow, this is such a good video. I’ve just discovered your channel and it is great!

FINALLY AFTER SEARCHING FOR THE CONCLUSION I FINALLY FOUND IT IN YOUR CHANNEL, Thank You Very Much~

I am so happy I clicked on this video, my new favorite review youtuber, u earned a sub 👌🏻👌🏻

I've been watching many articles and videos on the G305 debating on if I should get it or not, this video has convinced me to get it. TY!

Thanks this really helped for finding a mouse to ask for for Christmas

First video I’ve seen from you. It was recommended to me but have to say very good review and professional 👍

This vid is very professional up there with some of the biggest tech RU-vidrs keep it up

wow that flick with hibana was kinda clean

i'll def. recommend this mouse to people with a tight budget.

Just ordered this bad boy in blue since white is sold out great video !! I hope the shape isnt to diffrent from my wired version

Thanks for this review, was LEGIT really informative and simple.

I have one and I've never seen it covered on here. I thought it was underwhelming, its been sitting in a drawer. I may need to revisit it thanks to this review.

I need to thank you for giving me ideas about g305. I was thinking about like should i buy or should not. Now i am so clear. I must buy this mouse :)) And dude your video quality is so good. Same with has less 1m subscriber channels :)) Keep it up!! Loves from TURKEY 🇹🇷💞

remember everyone, everything is all personal preference in the peripherals market -- there really isn't the best, I'm not saying your wrong Bijan - i just wanted people to know. ( well they prob already know)

The OG G Pro is this shape. GPW has a different shape from the wired G Pro. In conclusion this is the real G Pro wireless.

Great vid! very professional :)

I have the g 502 mouse with the added weight it comes with. Heavier mouse with low sense makes you super precise

Great review especially since I current have a G pro wireless that is starting to exhibit the 'double-click' issue. The G305 is a perfect and affordable replacement.

I just got this mouse yesterday and I Love IT!

Great review!

This was helpful because i was thinking do i wanna get one of these

Been using the coolermaster MM711 for a while and really wanted to use a wireless mouse and I just got this Logitech G305 and I am really loving it and its really great.....highly recommended

i loved this mouse and would continue to use it if it wasn't so small it gave me hand cramps.

same thoughts as your girlfriend, the dimensions is similar to the g102 which ive had for 6 months and looked to get the razer viper ultimate once ive saved enough. Since the switch, I can never go back to the g102 as it forced me to play with my fingers around resulting in a less consistent and impulsive sort of aim, where with a palm grip of the razer viper I'm much more smoother as a result

What a great Video!!! I like it Just wow amazing video honestly

@bijan Jamshidi If you want to make the mouse lighter you can also opt to use lithium batteries. They last longer and they weigh less. Just a suggestion for ya and for those that are going to buy the mouse. Awesome Vid man.

Been using the G304 (305 version in SEA) for over a year. It fits my palm better than other mouses from other brands... Love it, and will buy a white one to match the new set up I am building soon (wait for the GTX3080).

I returned my G pro wireless and decided to keep the g305. I prefer the tactile clicks and weight of the 305 over the g pro. I play csgo and I had a mouse that was so hard to shoot one taps with because the mouse buttons were so easy to press that pressing it once usually resulted in multiple fires and the gpro is the same in that way. The clicks are so easy that it's hard to control your clicking when you get nervous and overly reactive in certain situations. Like you said in the video, you thought the 305 was heavier in terms of the mouse clicking and I did too. Whatever it is, it's more tactile and for me and the game I play I prefer that tactile feeling when I click mouse one because it gives me a better feeling of control when I shoot. I also use a clicky keyboard for the same reason. As for the weight, the 305 is perfect to me. Its heavy enough to stop itself. I get really jittery in clutch situations and the lightness of the g pro combined with my nerves makes it harder for me to aim in those situations. The 305 keeps my aim controlled and the weight keeps my aim steady. The 305 is perfect in my opinion. The tacticle mouse clicks are what sold me and the side bottoms stick out and feel the same way too. Awesome little mouse and my shooting and aim has improved because of it.

this mouse design is used by huge majority if top notch aimers and FPS pros so ofc its a great competitive option

Overall tho i love the g305 so far, left mb feels a little different than right mb but thats picky because i cant remember the last time i bought a mouse where both mousebuttons actually feel the same. I also would love to have it a little tad bigger in width but thats actually the reason i like it... if you look to other mice you often see shapes or grips but on the g305 its just so easy to mod. just put some afterfarket sidegrips on and reduce weight a little and its perfect. in comparison if its a little too wide, you cant change that and sadly there isnt really a perfect mouse right out of the box, but this thing is kinda close to it. you can make the buttons stiffer, reduce weight, you could even repaint parts of it because its just plastic and not some rubberized side thingys. its perfect for modding... and i dont wanna go back to a cord ever again after like 5 minutes of using it. For this low of a price price... its such a huge deal (coming from 3 razer viper who all delivered sqeaky mouse muttons after 2 weeks) now switched to the g305 since i dont wanna pay 120 bucks for a mouse. its good. not perfect but there is nothing really wrong with the 305 either so far

I got the G502 and I have to say, the weight was a little heavy at first, but I got used to it and now I absolutely love it, I came from the Logitech G Pro wired which was way too small for my hand.

At 5:39 you said something about deleting the DPI switcher bind but I have a better solution for this without actually having to remove the bind. Just set your DPI switcher to a G-shift key and you can add things to the g-shift mode. Try it out, it gives more features to your logitech mouse.

Laughs in 50g UL2. Also, moved from the G Pro Wireless to the UL2 after I myself said I'd never go back to a wired mouse (used the FK1 on a bungee). Modded paracord on my mouse and its basically wireless in game, only losses from the GPW is moving around the mouse when reorganizing. Lighter weight and better shape definitely has more benefits

this helped me so much thanks

Great video thank you!

How about you get her the g wolves hati gaming mouse? Because it’s one of the lightest mice on the market, the grips are amazing, it’s a beautiful mouse and it has one of the best sensors, and it’s wired! :) just an idea from a fan

I was looking for a white mouse as well. Came across this thing in my search and am thrilled it was only $40!

Great video!

For any skeptics: I own this mouse and have used it for the past few months. It’s a fantastic mouse for all types of games. I’m a FPS player that plays CS:GO and Valorant. It’s a amazing feel to flick and click quickly. So far I haven’t seen any problems AT ALL. He mentions that he accidentally presses the dpi switcher but I don’t have this problem once. I’d 100% recommend this mouse to you. This does everything a more expensive mouse can but keeping it below $70. If your looking for a new mouse. Put this at the top of your consideration list bc it will surprise you.

Got a Logitech G305 for just €15 + €3. I bought a damaged one for €15 from my friend, it had liquid damage and a side button not working. Rust from liquid damage was pretty easy to clean and I had buy a 3-pin micro switch for €3. So, it took me just €18 for a working G305. It's been 4 months and it's still working like a charm!

just about to order one! it was my birthday during our lockdown here in south africa and as of today shipping is open again. been saving up for the gpw, but my dad didn't know what to get for me, so i figured i'd give this a go and eventually upgrade to the gpw in the future. who knows, might even like this enough to keep the gpw on hold :)

Idk why I'm even here, I bought this mouse over a year ago! (for the record, it performs admirably, and I don't think I've actually swapped out the Duracell inside yet)

I bought the black G305 last year for 29.90€. I'm using it with AAA battery + adapter. Awesome price/performance ratio.

mouse reviewer of thr century! nice coverage

Good review! Wanted to ask how u got ur r6 game so bright? U change any Nvidia settings? Whats ur in game brightness

"How low do you want the audio in your videos" Bijan: "Yes"

Pretty solid reviews man, just saw this one and viper ultimate vs g pro. Keep it up!

Switched from GPW to my GPro Wired and just ordered this because the wire does bother me. The shape is super nice and comfortable once you get used to it and it’s hard to go back to my GPW without it feeling massive but I don’t palm my mice anymore so I think that’s why I made the switch

i love the g305, but if they ever release the gpro in white again, i'd switch. the rgb is just so attractive. i'm a sucker for aesthetics.

Few keypoints you forgot/didn't know to mention that I believe are important: 1. You can easily insert AAA battery and fill the rest of empty space with foil. Search for this mod online. I would say it's a must! Significant weight reduction + more balance towards center of the mouse. You can also find 3D printed cover online in order to replace with a lighter one. 2. It's a perfect FPS mouse for a laptop. Really, a quality mouse for a laptop. :)) 3. It has in-mouse memory, so you can configure once, delete the software and forget. 4. Software is somewhat crappy. And their website is a joke - it's a challenge to download up to date version of their software + you have to find the right software for logitech mouses (they have at least 2 apps)... As always, amazing content. Good job!

Good video! So early that it's 360p :D

This mouse is a bad boy/girl. It feels a little cheap, but trust me it's not. It is just lightened as much as possible. The plastic has a different feel than any other mouse I have used (atleast the black one does) . I have grown to love the way it feels (very grippy). It is everything I ever would need. Also I love the dpi button, never accidentally hit it and switch between the 2 highest settings depending if I'm gaming or browsing the web or using Photoshop. BUY THIS MOUSE IF YOU WANT THE BEST SENSOR AT A LOW PRICE. Great video. 👍

Did you try the glorious model O in white? I sold my gpro wireless because this mouse feels so great

I've been using the Pictek T16 and I never felt the 130g until I switched to a lighter mouse.

I don't know who you are, but boy am i glad that i clicked on this video. absolutely amazing video. Your earned a sub.👌

One of the best hitscan players in overwatch and OWL champion ANS uses this mouse. It's a great mouse for small hands. I also use it, recommend for sure. Fits my hands perfect I'm 5'7 and on the smaller side of hands.

thank you bro. keep it up

What monitor was that at around 2:30. That looks really good :0

This is like that one cheap car that's good and has alot of features out of the factory, and you can go aftermarket and modify it to beat supercars that costs alot more.

I have this mouse with a AAA lithium (that lasts forever) and a battery converter (got it for cheap on Amazon)... 82g with the cover on and 75g without... its basically a slightly smaller GPW without RGB and longer battery life. Fits my 18/9 hands perfect for claw. CSGO players don't use this as they want to have 80g right out of the box and money isn't an issue for them. But for common people like you and me, this is amazing.

thinking of getting this to replace my brick g502 nice review

dawg that is the exact same mnk set up that I have... guess I'm watching this video now!

They need to make an updated version of the G305

omg thank you for addressing the size of hands. As a female it's appreciated greatly since a lot of males who say they have "small" hands they're huge compared to mine. Definitely going to look at picking this up!

yo sick vid what is the mouse pads name

..and it can be modded like a hotrod

any plans for video on gaming headset for esports ....... budget and the best ...also what is better surround sound vs stereo for competitive gaming Love you videos ....🙌❤❤❤🙇‍♂️

You can use a AAA battery inside a AA battery capsule to lower the weight of the mouse by about 10 grams.

I have both G305 and GPW and the G Pro Wireless is much better built, feels more solid in the hand, more balanced, glides better and noticeably lighter. Plus the the weight of the G305 is on the back so it feels weird. The weight of the GPW is distributed equally and it almost feels unreal it's so good. That being said, G305 is very good for the money especially if you have small hands.

I have been using this mouse for a few weeks now and i've never clicked on the dpi button accidentally. Not even once but the right click tho, when i was playing games i accidentally clicked it sometimes but thankfully this is easy to solve i've just put a small piece of paper under the mouse clicks and it works pretty good now. Did not accidental click not even once since then. At first this seemed like an issue but since i've found the paper solution i realized that i can change the mouse button sensitivity the way i want to. It is also comfortable to use maybe not the most comfortable mouse ever sure but still pretty good. Don't really have anything bad to say about this mouse, huge upgrade after Logitech m238 lmao now i just wanna try out Razer Orochi v2

Ordered it before finishing the video :) was shocked that I got it for only 30 USD. Only the purple and blue versions were that cheap for some reason lol.

Damn , how hard can it be to get a wireless mouse like the GPW with a scroll wheel tilt?

Another good competitor for this mouse at least where i lived is corsair harpoon wireless and razer basilisk x. The price range is only within 5-10$ of each other. Originally after watching extensive reviews on the internet i was pretty hell bent on getting g305 but once im at physical store and physically test all the mice turns out basilisk x give me more comfort than the g305. So definitely go and try at a physical store first and u can either buy online if its too expensive or just buy directly. In the end there is no theoretically perfect mouse since everyone preferences is different.

my g305 (g304 here in asia) got delivered today!! I'm not going back again to wired lol

Thanks for the review. Now that these are 39 bucks, it was a no brainer to grab one

Sounds like the "nah I dont want [insert food]" and then you come back to see her munching meme

That transition at 5:45 though

this is basically a g pro wireless if you replace the battery with a lithium battery, you can also get a rechargable aaa battery with an adapter for the same effect.

Still my favorite mouse. Always ways of making it even lighter.

I have that exact same mouse and I love it

how does the white paint hold up so far? I'm considering the white version for long term use

You can do the aaa battery swap for like 6 bucks and makes it about 82 grams. You get a 8 pack of the adapters.

I personally use the G-203 ( Wired ) and I also have a G-Pro Wireless sitting at the edge of my mouse mat crying because it doesn't get used any more. I much prefer the shape and feel of the 203 over the Pro Wireless and I have identical hand size to yours. The only thing I would prefer is to have two side buttons on the other side of the mouse so it is would be ambidextrous.

I've used the g305 for a year with the stock battery. And i keep it on all the time.

Great review dude! Thinking of replacing my broken down g602 with a g305 or razer viper mini, what are your thoughts if you’ve tried the viper mini?

Buttons are a bit noisy, however there is a way to modify switches if you are brave enough to take i apart done it myself and they are really good now.

Going to get this mouse in a few days. I'm new to m&k and just play cod and stuff on my Xbox. I bought my first mouse not really thinking about it so I got a logitech G502 wired. But I have small hands and this thing is pretty bulky. So I'm really hoping this mouse changes things up for me.

Was considering this but it's way too tiny for my hands to palm it, shame looks like one of the best at it's price point

the black g305 is 15$ dollars at bestbuy right now, im definetley trying to get that

i have a g102 which was offered $6 retail $24+ and i can agree its good

went from a g pro wirless to a glorious model 0 and i have to say its the best one i ever had ... I had 3 g pro wireless and all 3 times i had the doubleclick issue aftera few months

i think the shape of this mouse is so much better than the new gpro wireless mouse

I replaced the bottom shell of the g305 with a 3d printed one with flat sides and it's so much more ergonomic. the way the default g305 sides narrow towards the base is horrendous for me

I have recently bought this mouse. (my first wireless mouse) and I love it. relativly cheap and better then most of the expensive ones. the only thing I dont like is the battery and usb reciever. In the rear I find it kinda bad.
