Note: I made a mistake in this review. I falsely stated that the G400 sensor has a max DPI of 3200. The correct value is 3600. Sorry for any confusion.
Thanks,im getting the g400 im using mx518 now,its a good mouse but i want to be able to use 500 or 1000hz and to be able to use g400 which feels and looks more or less the same its a bonus
Helpful review - I bought a second MX518 (that's in storage), before they were discontinued. My first one is still in use (4-5 years old), and is still going strong - I recently disassembled & gave the shell interior a good cleaning with a toothbrush for the first time - the outside plastic edges of the two main buttons got a little sticky from accumulated filth, but now it works like new. The click switches in Logitech mice seem bombproof & last forever (unlike horrible Razer mice switches!).
@MissMan666 it doesnt really make it more responsive. theres no difference between 8 ms and 1 ms to a human. its just smoother thats all. and it makes your aim more sensitive. try stalling your curson on someone with 1000hz in bf3 example. compared to 125 hz its alot less sensetive because it polls way less. sensetive is an english word and i never said it had anything to do with ingame sensetivity.
@skaterobban im sure you know what you are talking about, but pool rate and sensitivity is two seperate things, higher pooling rate does not increase sensitivity in anyway, higher pooling rate makes the mose movement more smooth and it will feel more responsive, not more sensitive :)
@MissMan666 Lol since it polls twice as much as 500 it does feel faster... because it becomes more sensetive. ive been testing this for years you can not argue me about this. if you cant tell the difference then youre not a gamer.
i had the same cord cutting out problem with the mx518.. never had this problem with the previous models.. hope the g400 doesnt do the same
