Does the G700s work properly with LGS? Because my G700 sure doesn't (well it's "supported" and being detected and all, but keeps losing its settings/profiles constantly so it's downright unusable until you install a pre-LGS version of SetPoint for it). Also the look is idiotic but I take that over other GAMERZ mice, and it has just enough buttons so I don't really need a telephone mouse.

Zigmidge posted:Welp, the latest LGS just chewed my g700 up and spat it out. That sucks I pretty much had to "solve" this problem with my G700 by going back to an ancient LGS version, the last one that was still delivered as a part of the SetPoint software. Everything newer was endlessly frustrating because of the profile issues. It's sad though because the G700 is pretty much the only remaining Logitech gaming mouse I can still tolerate, wonder why they never fixed that (and I have no idea if the G700s is better at profiles).

NihilCredo posted:Can you be more explicit about the "absurdly lovely" battery life? I was planning on the G700s as my next mouse, if the battery lasts less than a couple of days that would be a major bummer. A couple,  I have a G700, I don't think the G700s significantly improved battery life if at all. Generally you're charging it every day or two, my record was 2-3 times on the same day on a weekend with lots of MMO playtime. Although, lately I got it to 2-3 days per charge with my settings and a new Eneloop Pro battery, but it's still crappy (I also have a Performance MX as a backup and in comparison it's even more hilarious).

The Lord Bude posted:Corsair, nanoxia, fractal design, phanteks, Nzxt, all have products like this - the majority of their products in many cases. Understated elegance is very much the new trend for high end cases, it tends to be the cheap crap that looks like a prop from a transformers movie. Yeah but apparently the same thing doesn't work/sell if applied to peripherals. Gaming products need LEDs and the look of a customizable sports pistol, apparently, and subdued "premium" products often lack the sensors or software so they're not equally usable for dedicated gaming.

The name doesn't have to mean anything after the G703 is the wireless recharging version of a G403, not related to the old G700/G700s.

Did Logitech ever start adding support for older hardware to their newest flashy options software? Because it was dumb if you used a combination of devices of different "generations", each with their own settings suite. And then you possibly need the gaming software as well. Which supports old stuff but sometimes only badly (eg. in the case of the G700 mouse).

mobby_6kl posted:E: later that day... The first MX Anywhere had the same thing, the tiny button behind the wheel acts as a middle button (I guess it's mapped to something else with the Anywhere 2, but default mappings have gotten dumber over time) instead of the wheel. The wheel is not so much hard-coded as it's an actual physical switch IIRC. I agree it's awkward and while playing with the first MX Anywhere I was hoping they'd change it in a future product iteration instead of keeping it the same/doubling down on having the wheel switch scroll modes

Yeah: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3222963&pagenumber=220&perpage=40#post478685252 Unfortunately, the MX Anywhere and a few other Logitech mice (IIRC) have their wheel mode switch (which is a physical switch, not a button you can reassign in software) built into the wheel, you'll need to assign "middle click" to one of the mouse buttons if you need it. The first MX Anywhere had it on the small button behind the wheel by default, apparently the MX Anywhere 2 doesn't. And yeah it sucks for users who use middle click way more than switching the scroll wheel mode.

I like that we mostly left the godawful designs like the G900, G402 and G502 behind, but I hope they're adding more e-sports mice, maybe use the G403/603/703 shape again. Can't have too many of those.

NihilCredo posted:The battery life is literally the only complaint I have with the G700S. Otherwise it's Well yeah, except for the part where you can't buy a new one anymore if the double clicking takes over or it breaks in any other way. The battery life is a pretty significant complaint, though. And I assume the sensor could be a lot better these days (which I wouldn't know because literally none of the current Logitech gaming mice appeal to me). Also, my G700 didn't work right with certain LGS versions, but the current one that supports my  keyboard works.It's still funny I have to run at least 3 different Logitech programs to manage my devices, though. LGS is its own thing and they keep dropping support for slightly older hardware every time a new suite comes out for their non-gaming products. So I get to run SetPoint for old mice (like the Performance MX I use for work stuff), Options for newer devices, and LGS for the G700 and the G810 keyboard (which was discontinued too, gj Logitech )

Yeah the software part of Logitech products is pretty bad, especially if you use devices of two+ different "generations" and sub-brands (ie. office products and gaming devices). If I buy a new mouse I get to use the new G Hub. But I still need to keep LGS running for my keyboard (it doesn't have memory to save settings like RGB customization), the old SetPoint-LGS for my older mouse (it has on-board memory on paper and also works with the newer LGS, but not very well). Then I have two mice for office work that use Options and SetPoint respectively. It's cool that every time there's a new settings software, it almost exclusively supports the latest and future hardware only. orcane fucked around with this message at 09:30 on Oct 21, 2019 |

FastestGunAlive posted:Just built my first pc, courtesy of the build thread. My mouse is skipping/lagging every few seconds. It is a G602 that I've had for over a year- no issues when plugged into my laptop. I downloaded the dumb logitech program to confirm the drivers are up to date. Google suggested turning off "allow device off to save power" for USB ports in device manager and uinstalling/reinstalling via device manager- no change from doing those. Fresh batteries and a clean mouse pad. Any suggestions? I also had Logitech wireless mice for ages and on notebooks I never had problems, and for my desktop I used the USB extender cables that came with the mice. If I use the receivers directly plugged into my SFF box the same mice started randomly lagging or temporarily lost connection, especially if I was more than about 1 m from the case. I also use an extender for the receiver now and everything is fine again, so I thing it's either normal interference with a boost by USB 3.0 , but could also be the case's fault (the SFF box is a Dan A4 so everything is really close together).

Atomizer posted:Ok, totally different mouse question. You know how some older Razer mice in particular had this soft touch plastic/rubber that turns sticky over time? Does anyone know how to remedy that? I've seen various methods suggested online, like using cleaning products, acetone, alcohol, etc., to just sanding it down. I would have no problem with just a smooth surface, but in the meantime I'm going to try cleaning with soap & water (this particular mouse has a removable top shell that contains almost the entire rubber coating, aside from the side buttons unfortunately.) You can also rub talcum powder into the sticky surfaces and see if that helps if you want to keep the rubber coating.

During my active WoW time I used a G700 with modifier keys and that was enough, the amount of buttons on the G600 always seemed like overkill to me. I was looking at the G604 as a replacement but I don't want to use yet another Logitech software utility and as far as I can tell you can't recharge it while (temporarily) attaching it to a USB cable, like all my other mice. Maybe when the G700 finally disintegrates

Did you change something about your setup, like move the receiver or add other USB devices? Because with my TV PC setup (K270 keyboard + M560 mouse on a Unifying receiver) I had most of these problems, like the keyboard and mouse occasionally stopped working for a while, or only worked with a huge delay, or they randomly ignored some inputs but not others - until I moved the receiver some distance away from the computer with an extension cable. If it's not just interference, you could try getting a replacement receiver before you replace the entire set. Otherwise, the (M)K270 still has the power button.
