Logitech G9 Gaming Mouse Review

September 9, 2009

Which mouse to choose can often be a daunting task, especially considering the range of mice on the market, so whether it be for gaming or web browsing you want a mouse that offers comfort and reliability to allow you to focus on the task at hand.

Gamers are often prepared to spend obscene amounts of money on the best equipment available and mice are no exception. For many years they have searched for the best gaming mouse available and many mice have stepped up only to be quickly dethroned by a superior rodent.

Logitech has been a successful player in the computer peripheral market for many years. Their urge to deliver new and interesting products to consumers is nothing short of awe inspiring and I am intrigued as well as excited each time Logitech decide to release a new product, especially if it’s catered towards the gaming crowd.

Today I have not got a new product from Logitech, but one that has stood the test of time. Released back in 2007, the Logitech G9 remains one of the firm favourites for gamers and enthusiasts alike. The G9 has been voted the best overall gaming mouse on numerous occasions and today we will take a closer look at what makes this mouse so special.

Before I delve into the review let’s have a look at the specifications from the Logitech website.
