Logitech G9 Unbox/review

[DaBossk]

what kinda knife was that?

[asdfxyz1]

hey how much larger than the vx is the g9? i have the vx nano and i think its a little too small for me. and i already have the g9 coming in the mail on monday.

[NiGHTSChao689]

@asdfxyz1 The VX is a laptop mouse.. so obviously it is smaller. If you're comparing the VX Nano to the G9, the G9 is a little more wide and tall. I think it will fit your hand better.

The VX Nano is meant to be small and flat, since its functionality was built around portability. The G9 is meant to cater towards the claw-grip gamer or graphic artist.

[asdfxyz1]

@NiGHTSChao689 alright thanks. what about the middle mouse button? is it as hard to press as the vx? i hear lots of people complaining about that and i use the middle mouse button to knife in some games.

[NiGHTSChao689]

@asdfxyz1 You will either get used to it, or it will "wear down into place" over time.

As for "hurr middle mouse button knifing", I think thats stupid, my middle mouse button is dedicated to voice chat on every single game I play. Either way, I don't use WASD.

[asdfxyz1]

@NiGHTSChao689 What keys do you use? Ive heard of people using ESDF.

[NiGHTSChao689]

@asdfxyz1 I use the arrow keys, as well as all the keys that surround them

[SparhawkJC]

Awesome detailed review. Helped convince me to switch from my own VX Revolution to this mouse. If anyone watching this is interested in getting this mouse it's 34.99 at Best Buy with 5.49 shipping.

[bigh1337]

STOP TALK SHIT AND OPEN IT?

[NiGHTSChao689]

@bigh1337 WHAT YOU SAY?

[Rehabveteran]

Something that just starting bugging me like 5 minutes in, your arms are small to the point of me being concerned of your safety. Try not to get mugged, stay safe.

[NiGHTSChao689]

@Rehabveteran ....what!?... 0_O....

[SamapaloozaFilms]

It's an UNBOXING. Why does this has to be 32 minutes?

[NiGHTSChao689]

@SamapaloozaFilms Why not? My vlog is also my personal blog, so deal with it

[NiGHTSChao689]

@BrothersOverWar Swearing is a bad habit, what can I say.

[EmoPossum]

one question... wt is is so long!?!?!?!

[NiGHTSChao689]

@EmoPossum what..?

[EmoPossum]

@NiGHTSChao689 why is it so long?

[NiGHTSChao689]

@EmoPossum Why is what so long...?

[EmoPossum]

@NiGHTSChao689 the video??!?!

[NiGHTSChao689]

@EmoPossum Because I talked a lot?

[EmoPossum]

@NiGHTSChao689 well is the mouse at least worth buying?

[NiGHTSChao689]

@EmoPossum Why dont you watch the video :|

[Senquell]

11:22

yep thats what i was thinking xD

[cdseatpizza]

bugs me aswel when the box is ripped lol

[morgunt]

long ass vid but good vid liked it

[niaisage123]

why do people doing reviews always feel they have to tell us their life story ?? Do the review don'T care about your life......

[NiGHTSChao689]

Oh poor baby, try skipping the first few minutes you lazy fuck.

[ddaybook7]

lolz

[Cropsgrinder]

indeed...

btw, that girlfriend of his has to be really desperate...that or she's a blowup doll...

[tophermwah]

You sound like Reverend Lovejoy from the Simpsons. Stop swearing, seriously. Good review though.

[NiGHTSChao689]

Its a bad habit, get over it.

[ecyor7]

very longgg review, try to keep it more concise next time, but nice review overall. I have the G9 too and its kickass =]

[msaber1797]

well i like how he did the long review because he gives u all of the information rather than going to 4 videos to get enough info to buy it

[NiGHTSChao689]

:| Ladies and Gentlemen. The "Stupid Comment of the Week".

[x0p30d3]

@NiGHTSChao689 sparkle sparkle

[tigercrap]

How do you post a 32 minute video? I thought it was 10 minute max? Too dim a video! Agree, I don't know why peeps palm a gaming mouse! I use my fingers and get way better control. My X8 sucks! Wish I had a G9...

[NiGHTSChao689]

Magic!

[msaber1797]

you have to compress the files

[l337dan]

are you on drugs buddy ?

[NiGHTSChao689]

1337dan?

Are you 12 years old buddy?

[l337dan]

ah no, but you act like one. Seriously, learn not to swear so much.

[NiGHTSChao689]

Oh noes, the words, they hurted ur fewlings <3

[l337dan]

Umm yea.. watever you say. Typical reaction off someone like you actually. Here's a tip, go outside into the sun, get a haircut, read a book and get off the drugs.

[NiGHTSChao689]

Amazing, what a simplistic and stupid thing to respond with. Maybe if you actually took the time to watch my vids, and seek to understand me first off. You'd know I'm completely clean and against any sort of drug, smoking or drinking practice. Plus I'm working towards becoming an English Literature teacher. With a good library of books I love in my room, I hold a pretty good taste for someone of my generation.

Thanks for trying though <3 You're still an idiot.

[plumpdutch]

its like ur giving me a fucking review of the fucking MX FOLY FUCKJING SHIT

[NiGHTSChao689]

OMFG METALLLL GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAR

[C2aimar123]

Stop at 09:32

[C2aimar123]

BIG EYES

[C2aimar123]

Chees, what kind of a stupid girl would want to date with you, AND ONE YEAR...

AS**OLE

[C2aimar123]

YEAH your Write

[billyaris]

Awesome video.Thanks for uploading it

BTW i also like to keep the boxes ;)

[TheSunGodRa]

32,000 DPI? ;)

[NiGHTSChao689]

Shush, yes I was an idiot and said the wrong thing

[TheSunGodRa]

Ahh well you've convinced me to buy one anyways; its on sale for 50 now that the g9x or something is out.

[SonyBoy365]

what do you play with the mouse?

[NiGHTSChao689]

I answer this question about 90 times

Either read my comments in some of my other vids or look at my other vids

[blinx615]

very long review, but entertaining and told me everything I need to know. I was about to get a g5 but you sold me on this. $50 including shipping on ebay :o

[TheApolix]

or *You are.. seriously care..?

[NiGHTSChao689]

What the fuck are you trying to tell me.

"seriously care"...?

You're not making any goddamn sense.

[TechnoPandaa]

I think he means, do you seriously care that he misspelt.

[TheApolix]

14:02 your weak :P

[NiGHTSChao689]

*you're

[Null81]

win.

[scotteyorr]

the feet on the textured grip fell off of mine like 3 months after i bought it, but the g9 is a great gaming mouse

[NiGHTSChao689]

Mine are still perfectly fine, I'm sure if you contact logitech and tell them what happened they will send replacements

[projundertax]

as a counterstrike source pro i'd like to ask if this is the best mouse to go for? I have the vx nano now, which is small, but i'm used to it etc.

Isn't the cord anoying? also, is it overpriced in your oppinion?

[NiGHTSChao689]

To me, this is the best gaming mouse money can buy

[NiGHTSChao689]

uh, I'm still using my G9 and this video was made over almost 2 years ago. My g9 is still in pristine condition :\

[lizardmannnn]

how is the wire? do you have any cons about it?

[NiGHTSChao689]

I wouldn't say its one of Logitech's better ideas, but it does look stylish and holds up well. It is stiff but I have yet to have it 'kink' to the point where its bent

[NiGHTSChao689]

I believe you mean 'Mamba', but I would hardly consider that piece of shit mouse better.

[pizza546]

feel bad for her rofl

[NiGHTSChao689]

:| Why?

[alex801848]

one of the longest videos I ever seen

[goku6785]

I have this mouse and i love it.. best mouse ever.. much beter than mamba or deathadder etc..

[cyborg34572]

in my opinion the mamba is better >_>

-higher dpi

-newer laser techonogy (3.5G )

-dualmode - can wireless and wired.(u can switch to whatever u want very fast, even if ur ingame)

-comes with a charging dock that servers as its wireless reciever aswell.

-in wireless mode it performs like a wired mouse , 1000hz polling rate / 1ms . has its own mac adress so the mouse has no lag at all.

the only real downpart of the mouse is its price.

130 dollars US.

[cyborg34572]

typos

"technology"

and

"serves"

xD

[goku6785]

- you cant even handle 3200 dpi with no acceleration and speed at 8-10

- with razer destructor g9 is enough accurate

- i don't give 80 dollars more for wireless gaming mouse.. beter use 80 dollars for beter headset, keyboard or gaming mat.

[cyborg34572]

- high dpi is for people with big monitors. easier to move the mouse around.

-not as accurate as razer prodducts, the reason for this is logitech uses old laser technology.they havent upgraded for years.

- the mamba is more accurate on the destructor than the g9 on the destructor. because razer designs thier mice to work best with their mousepads.

[goku6785]

Dude I don't have time to argue with you.. the price/performance on mamba is like 60%.. with hyperglide skates on g9 the mouse is just better than mamba until they make those skates for mamba also and lower price ffs.. =)

[goku6785]

"Hyperglide prides itself on providing only the best quality gaming gear." right from hyperglides ... now please stfu =)

[cyborg34572]

u do know that hyperglide uses teflon.

and teflon skates come with every razer mouse.

also u fail to know that hyperglide makes custom hyperglide skates for razer products.

they dont have ones for the mamba yet.

but thier working on it.

also the mamba seems to use more advanced skates.

teflon skates from hyperglide are colored white.

the ones that come with the mamba seems to glide more and its color is black.

but anyway yeah

hyperglide makes skates for razer products so haha.

[goku6785]

i know they make.. ofc lol but we was talking about mamba vs g9 .. and for sure G9 with Hyperglide skates is beter than Mamba with normal skates.. AND the price difference in my country is like 60-50euros with that money i get keyboard OR mouse pad + the G9 with hyperglides.. so no point to buy Mamba IMO.

[cyborg34572]

lmfao you dont get it do you.

hyperglide makes "teflon"skates

teflon is the material

what u simply dont get is almost every gaming mouse comes with "teflon" skates.

all razer mice come with teflon skates. yes including the mamba.

same material as hyperglide uses.

thier exactly the same

"teflon"

hyperglide makes replacement skates for your worn out teflon skates.

same material.

[goku6785]

thanks for advice pro ;)

[DuffBP]

Great mouse. I bought mine like 20 hours before G9x came out. Fuck. lol

[RiptorSLO]

I love my G5 v2 <3

[raysup]

It's 3,200 dpi not 32,000. Other than that, pretty entertaining review.

Just got this mouse today and I love it.

[NiGHTSChao689]

*shrug* Same thing ;3

[meamjustme]

lol. my sony walman has a damaged box also XD

i keep al those things also. i feel your pain dude :P

[Wingz136]

i know wt u mean about thebox. i keep em 2, for the resale value lol it really annoys me if their damaged.

[OAKside24]

Excellent! Hilarious. Thanks.

[weirdy17]

dude your fucking funny.

[weirdy17]

lolz

[CocaineStyler]

I heard your mom was a bitch.

[NiGHTSChao689]

I heard your mom was the prostitute I beat up last night.

[tissmigioret14]

fucking XD

[elifraser]

i have been having lagg problems with this mouse in game can some one plz help me

[NiGHTSChao689]

Could it be vsync being turned on?

Its probably not the mouse, and probably just the software/games

[copperhead88]

isnt the mouse a bit small for big hands? my fingertips is on the edge on roccat cone mouse and its bigger than the G9 so im not sure if i want to get the G9

[NiGHTSChao689]

Keep in mind the Roccat Cone is a different form factor, that style of mouse is meant to be sort of long-ish and somewhat flat. I guess you could say the G9 is like a circle while the Roccat is an oval. My hands arn't really "beefy" but I do have very long fingers, some people tell me I would be a great pianist. Either way I think its worth giving it a try.

Just buy it at a store, play around with it for like 5 days and then return it if you don't like it.

[Jamannen3]

Okay.. I have had this mouse for 10 months now.. and it works GREAT! I can not complain about anything. This is the perfect mosue. :D

Thank you for the review! If it wernt for you I would never have bought this mouse.

[speedyvocalcover]

haha dude, i just came back from the store and bought one... and the first thing i did before i had the mouse in hand was rip the box. and your right it does piss you off, i don't know why but it bugged me. i ripped it trying to peel the clear seal sticker off the box flaps.

anyways sick mouse, very customizable.

[AlphaBeam]

I have a question about the Logitech G9, it may sound really stupid, but does the mouse have a right click? I know this is probably a really stupid question so yeah. xD

[NiGHTSChao689]

No problem, yes it does.

[AlphaBeam]

K thanks for the reply.

[lkk132]

lol getting the other grip out wtf?

[Peacemaker1085]

Dude...you have the best girlfriend I've ever heard of man.

[NiGHTSChao689]

We broke up a long time ago

[Peacemaker1085]

Oh...well I'm sorry to hear that. : (

[efTSjakie]

Im gonna get this one tomorrow. Ive had 2 G5v2's. they both died after 4/5 months. Wire got fucked up everytime. Reconnect issues. So i hope this one wont have that

[Shinn18]

is this a good mouse for fingertip grip?

[NiGHTSChao689]

I'd say yes, but thats because I have long fingers. Buy it and try it out, you can always return it if you don't like it

[kaneem001]

dude this is boooring

[NiGHTSChao689]

So was fucking your mom last night :/

OH SNAP DAWG

[kaneem001]

stupid ass bitch bet you cant say that to my face your video is fucking boooring and everybody knows it get a personality or something you fucking cunt

[NiGHTSChao689]

lol I sure hurt your feelings.

Go cry somewhere else.

[kaneem001]

holy shit 32:51 sec of booringness

[NiGHTSChao689]

X'D I'm just going to pretend you didn't say that horribly retarded sentence.

Like I said, go cry somewhere else.

[kaneem001]

the only thing retarded here is the fact that your a 19 year old sissi with stuffed animals and video game characters in your room thats pathetic grow up dude you look like a wasp and shrek donkey morph together

[NiGHTSChao689]

Actually I'm 20.

Aside from you not being able to actually create a coherent argument and insult, I like the fact that you are indeed trying to insult me when in reality you're only making yourself look bad.

Now lets just ignore the fact that you might have had a bad upbringing in life. Wouldn't it just be easier to just piss off and move on from this bullshit? Or do I have to block you for your idiotic mind to understand what I'm trying to say?

[XysteRST205]

Thx for the info .. Now put the mouse down. Find a good pie shop ;o)

[typingpong]

go sonic !!!

[omaristheman]

Dude, I got my G9's like on Monday and I couldn't find my weights either. Great mouse though.

[MaxiKingz]

how could u talk so much??

[takasta]

lol, 32 thousand dpi? did i hear correctly? lol, i think you meant 32 hundred hahaha. niec review anyways

[pcoelho23]

why do you want 5000dpi?

[Wolf3nStein]

Logitech G9x 5000 dpi mouse will be available in feb!!

[daxtro5]

good video and please tell me how u got so fucking fucking slim!!

[NiGHTSChao689]

uh.. my body does that on its own. I have a high metabolic rate, and my body has been at 120 pounds for many years

[Scorpionxek]

Nice review man, but I still don't know which mouse to buy. I have a claw grip and have medium-small sized hands but I'm still looking for a cheaper option. Any suggestions? thanks.

[NiGHTSChao689]

I would buy the G9 then just try it out for a week. Pretty much every retail store has a return policy so just check with a sales manager before making a purchase.

Honestly, I really like my G9 and I will keep it for a very long time, so I would just recommend it.

[bl0ckme]

ok. im so syked about this mouse. this owns the lachesis in my IMO

[bl0ckme]

hey dawg. i want to get the G9 over the lachesis,g5. im an fps gamer. is the g9 really nice?

[NiGHTSChao689]

yes its nice

[GamesGear]

Just bought the G9 and yes i agree with u it's fucking awesome. great review =P

[NoDropsAllowed]

haha 14:02

[welshe222]

33min video? lol damn

[backroger]

Awesome!...

I just got this mouse yesterday for about $80.00 and used on Valve's Left 4 Dead. Damn...amazing precission. ^_^

[JOCKElNVICTUS]

:O thats good im getting this but is left 4 dead good/fun?

[mzoli1222]

very nice video man and long too. how many minutes did it take to upload this video?

I will get a G9 for Christmas.

[NiGHTSChao689]

I think it took like 40 minutes

[NoDropsAllowed]

im getting G9 for christmas too =D

[cykocess]

nice vid man just ordered mine

also love the Yu Yu Hakusho poster

[softair44]

very long video :/

[jimmah55555]

12:45 if you want to skip the into.

[kossanmu86]

Logitech G9 is much better than Razer ^^ Both form and performance and the Menu of the mouse. I payed 990 KR (Swedish) Which is about 120$ Atm (Think) On the release date. But now its around 500-700 KR (50-80$)

[DjHELL123]

get out

[kossanmu86]

Hell no^^ I had a Razer once, The buttons is the best but the Wheel + Form (atleast for my hand) Is bleh.. My small finger is freakin red after 2 hours if i use a Razer, and the Wheel is hard and really lame to scroll if you ate chips or any thing like that.

[matheus330]

i'd tap that

[NiGHTSChao689]

:D <3

[mumihp]

Hi, Im a total noob on mouse, normally a buy the cheap shit mous, but since I got a new HP Paviallion DV7 Laptop, wanted a nice cordless mouse. Can you recommend one, and do you know any decent cordless keyboard. Thanks man, love the review.

PS: I understand how you feel on the damaged box, if you spend so much money, you should atleast get everything brand new in top condition even the box, it bugs me when I spend a large amount of money, and the box is like crap.

5/5

[NiGHTSChao689]

It depends on what kind of style you'd like but if you want something really portable then go with the VX Nano, if you want something great for everyday use use the MX 1100

[NiGHTSChao689]

Damn fucking straight

[NiGHTSChao689]

BestBuy owns FutureShop

BestBuy is a very corrupt company

Now-a-days you can find the G9 for like 60-70 bucks if you look in the right place

[NiGHTSChao689]

My G9 was very close to the launch date, so the full price of 90 bucks

[Vidyll]

hello,

great review

but i have a problem

i know it sounds weird but

i cant chose between the Razer DeathAdder/ Logitech g5 or logitech g9

Greetings

[NiGHTSChao689]

G99999999999999999999999

[Vidyll]
