Love it not much more to say it delivers what it says it will do

The LGS software rocks, and is very easy to use. It is a heavy mouse, which I like, but be aware of that. It will teach claw users to go palm. You seriously will be taught by the mouse how to do that. All 4 thumb buttons are easy to use when you do. The fixed/free scroll wheel function is classic, and I require it! When I go into gaming mode, I like to situate my mouse where the cord is in the way, well with this mouse I just unplug the dam thing. Zero latency as a result, with report rate set at 1ms. When I'm done gaming, I just plug the cable back in, and it goes back to wireless mode, and charging the battery back up. Battery is 1 rechargeable aa, and is replaceable. Heavy gaming estimate would be 10hrs or better on one charge.

Very nice mouse. Takes a little bit to get used to all the mouse buttons and the texture of the mouse (sides have a gritty feel which is good for gripping the mouse)Does not come with the software, but it is easy enough to download and install. The software is very customizable but is not the most user friendly.Battery drains extremely quick if all the settings are maxed out. It does have a power save profile which helps extend battery life. It uses a standard rechargable AA battery so it can be switched out on the fly or you can plug it in and use it as a corded mouse while it recharges. However the cable is stiffer than a standard mouse cord so does not work as well. Would not recommend using the cord for extended periods.Not designed for left handed users, so this may be a downside to some users.

Works fantastically well. Delivers on all promises. Mouse software sometimes won't recognize mouse when computer wakes from sleep mode however mouse is still functional (can't be customized). Solution; look in processes, terminate LCore.exe, re-execute mouse software. Buttons are reasonably quiet. Extremely responsive. Cable is a bit heavy during recharge (if you are playing). Easy to learn and intuitive LED lighting. Most expensive mouse I have bought, works great for MW3, FarCry3, other FPS. Nice for internet browsing. Heavy but not extreme. Very slippery on surfaces.

I'll try to write my review a bit different than the kinds you will hear and read about on the Internet.I love this mouse. My previous favourite was the G9. I had the Corsair M60 which wasn't bad, but it was made for claw grips or larger hands.The thing with this mouse though, is it's so very comfortable. That's not to say that other mice aren't because I never felt uncomfortable holding the M60 or G9 - It's that I never said to myself wow, this is very comfortable.Let's talk grip. I use the lazy-person grip. What that means is the heel of my hand is on the table and I move the mouse mostly with my wrist. Very few mice have the thumb buttons where I can reach them without having to lift my arm. Yes, I'm very lazy, but I imagine most people are.With the M60 and many other mice, the thumb buttons are a bit more forward on the mouse. In the M60's case, I had to completely re-adjust my grip everytime I wanted to use the sniper-scope button. They are more designed for a claw grip whereas this one is a palm, but a lazy palm grip is fine too!The G700s thumb buttons are all reachable with my small hands. The buttons feel differently too, which helps ensure you press the right button when you want. It's meant to be palmed or utilized in the "lazy-person" grip.One of the other features that I love on this mouse is the amount of pressure required to middle click. I've found some mice (m60 and even the G9 to an extent) require a lot of force to click down. Again, I'm a lazy person and don't want to have to click hard, or struggle. Has more to do with the "lazy-person" grip I use, as you don't get any leverage on the scroll wheel click. The G700s is very easy to activate or scroll side to side. Let's not forget the Logitech free-scroll which is quiet helpful in some instances.This mouse has some heft to it. In fact it is much heavier than my G9 and M60. It's like moving an empty coffee mug or thereabouts.The materials are good, the features are nice and it's just so damn comfortable. I play games with the mouse plugged in, and do work in wireless mode. I have tested the wireless mode in a game, didn't notice any lag, but that's a rather small test sample size. If there's no lag 90% of the time, a lot of people will never notice. But why take the risk. Plug it in, charge it, and play some games.What prevented me from giving it a 5 out of 5 was more nitpicking than anything and not necessarily a flaw with the mouse itself. First, for the price I would've liked to have a braided cable. Second, I would have loved to have the adjustable weights that the G9 and other gaming mice have in this model. Again, only because of the price. Also, the clicks are a bit louder than most mice, something to keep in mind if you take it to work in a quiet office.With all that said however, I highly recommend this mouse.
