The design of the mouse is perfect for my hand, though a bigger person might take issue with this mouse slight smaller than standard frame. The curves are in the right place so my thumb and pointer fall on the corresponding buttons. The usb cable is high quality and mesh wrapped to prevent getting knotted or tangled, and is long enough to place this mouse anywhere on your desk. The slide surfaces on the bottom keep it moving smooth and are easy to wipe off if any dirt build up. The laser still works like new and I have never had to blow out or clean.
The surface of the mouse is coated with a texture that looks great and provides a good grip. The center scroll wheel is smooth but still easy to scroll and the spring is strong to provide tactile feedback when pressed down. There is only two side buttons on this mouse so if you are looking for a keyboard on your mouse go with a naga. I do feel the button placement is pretty tight so you can at times hit both.
The features of this mouse by todays standards are nothing fancy by todays standards. You can adjust dpi on the fly with the dpi buttons, the highest being the setting I tend to use for most games, sometimes dropping it down to medium for online fps play. The adjustable weight is a good concept, though I cannot say it makes a drastic difference as the mouse slides smooth enough where it dose not feel like much either way.
the option to have it is a nice touch and ads to the quality of this mouse. I think if you can still find it for a good price (hard to do in 2013) it is well worth the investment, even compared to newer models by logitech and razor.
With that out of the way, I've had my G5 since 2008, and I still love it. I was expecting black/orange when I purchased it, but now I see that black/blue is the only option, so I must have messed up my order. However, this mouse has been extremely reliable for me. I've used it so much that the bottom is actually starting to wear out a bit from me having a bad mousepad and my extremely frequent use. The lettering of 'Gaming Grade Laser' has worn off, along with the max DPI lettering, and there seems to be a circle appearing around the laser diode. At best, I would say that this mouse will last me another five years, and that's IF I don't get a new one. The side-scrolling isn't very useful, but it doesn't hurt to have it, especially when there's something that requires side-scrolling. I don't know anybody who prefers to use the scroll bars on the sides and bottoms of webpages. The On-The-Fly DPI change buttons are out of the way, yet still accessible enough for me on those rare occasions that I turn the DPI down from max. The braided cord feels strong and resilient, but you should definitely have some slack on your cord or take some time to get used to it, as it is a tad stiff. I like the option for the weight cartridge, as it allows me to get my mouse to a weight that works nicely for me(maxed out weight), and keep a good amount of overall control. The overall shape of the mouse fits my gorilla-hand nicely, as well. I don't use the side buttons much, but they're out of the way, which I think is a good thing, because I don't want to hit one by accident. They make nice Ventrilo/Teamspeak PTT keys, as well. The only thing I dislike about the side buttons is the fact that they are also Windows's browser-pare-back and browser-page-forward, however, that isn't the mouse's fault.
Nothing much else to say, really. Awesome mouse, if you ever decide to get it.
We own two of these mice, and both had kinks within a few weeks of purchase. My son's is so bad that we are replacing the mouse after 2 months of use. Despite trying to straighten the kinks and support it with electrical tape, the mouse is acting flaky already. I am not as hard on a mouse, but mine has developed a couple of major kinks. Plus I hate the stiffness of the cord, I always seem to be trying to wrestle it into place. I supposed I will need to replace my mouse soon as well. These mice are too expensive to replace after a few months use!!
Its a shame that Logitec decided to go with this odd-ball cord on this great mouse. In my opinion, the poor cord has ruined this fine mouse.

Da ich eine etwas kleinere Hand habe, hatte ich oft Schwierigkeiten eine "bequeme" Maus zu finden, auf der die HAnd auch bei längerem Gebrauch angenehm liegt. Dies erfüllt meine "G5"! Ich hoffe sie hält noch lange durch, denn die Nachfolge-Modelle sind für mich weniger empfehlenswert!
Style: perfekt
Funktionalität: Hammermäßig
Handling: Top
Keine Frage, 5 Sterne! Hab die Maus seit nem knappen Jahr und bin vollstens zufrieden mit dem Gerät. Durch die Gewichte, kann man die Maus auch individuellen wünschen anpassen. Ich sage nur: Finger weg von allem anderen! Kauft die Maus solange es sie noch gibt! Ich würde es auch wieder tun!
