[cheapherk]

Oh my- I'm very happy with my gaming mouse, but now, another temptation- Logitech G9 Gaming Mouse.

Redesigned G15 here.

Looks horribly ugly... and wheres the G15 redesign?

It's good that it does a lot of stuff without the Setpoint drivers, but I don't like how the left click button is so small and they still have not added any extra buttons. I want to see a wired mouse with high dpi hardware but with 10 or so buttons like the MX610 has.

Added link for the redesigned G15.

Redesign is nice. No one had really much use for 18 macro keys anyway and most people kept the LCD screen open. However blue keys > red keys. I got my G15 for free so im not complaining.

hah, looks like G15 can finally fit in my retarded keyboard drawer

I think the original G15 only fit in retarded keyboard drawers, that KB was beyond huge for no damn reason.

the new mouse is weird looking the "100's of color" led thing seems gimmicky, it's nice to be able to select a color you like, but hundreds? I'd like to see it in action but I'm sure 6 colors would have been suffice, and maybe kept the price below 100 damn dollers.

I like the looks of the new G15, might just have to get one now. I hated the old design, it was really ugly and huge.

Now that mouse is ugly, but I'll reserve my judgment until I can hold one.

when are these coming out?

I like my current G15... the blue-ness matches my Samsung LCD's blue LED and my Lian-Li case's blue LED. Not to mention they're all black as well.

I like the current G15 also. I like the extra macro keys and the ability to fold down the LCD screen.

I'll have to test drive a G9 to see if I'd like it. It's supposed to have interchangable grips. Not sure if I like the placement of the dpi buttons. I think the change in the scroll wheel will make it easier to use the scroll wheel button without accidentally hitting one of the tilt buttons. We'll see.

Redesign is crap imho, i liked the 18 macro keys, used them all while playing Vanguard, very handy, the new one would be a good deal if it was cheaper than the original, but they took away features and kept the price the same, wtf?

Wow, I saw a pic of the prototype for the G9 some time ago. Most people were calling shens, since the pic was from china... but it's still ugly, anyway.

The new G15 looks really damn nice, but $100 is STILL too much to spend on a keyboard.

 

[CP5670]

A month ago, I wouldn't have cared much if they removed some of the G keys, but I recently found them invaluable for movement and everything else in one older game that didn't let you remap keys at all. This keyboard is essentially a cut down version of the original for the same price.

In any case, I already have two of the older ones so it doesn't really matter to me.

hmm, I thought the volumn wheel of the G15 sucked compared to my previous logi KB and don't see one at all on the new one.
