and first look at the g700s from Logitech the key difference between
their seven series mice so the G7 the g700 and now the g700s is the fact that
they are all Wireless but gaming grade the G7 was really the first mouse that
was marketed as a gaming grade wireless mouse and the difference between gaming
capable Wireless mice and non-gaming capable ones is all about the latency so
creating a wireless connection that is low latency enough that Gamers aren't
going to notice any input leg from the mouse is key to being able to well being
able to be responsive enough particularly for FPS gamers in order to
really with a straight face call it gaming grade now Logitech has recently
upgraded a huge well pretty much their entire G Series of products with this s
suffix at the end of it so the S is for
I don't know for Supreme performance or
Surface or something like that and what they've really done is they've upgraded
the materials that they're using on the products themselves covering them in a
hydrophobic coating upgrading things like the grippy sides upgrading
everything about them to make them last longer and feel better on the user's
hand so they shouldn't get all sort of greasy and sweaty and nasty and they
should be easier to grip and they shouldn't peel back in fact my only
complaint about one of my favorite mice ever the G9 was the fact that my grip
peeled other than that it was near perfect so let's see what else Logitech
has to say for themselves about this 200 all the way up to 8200 DPI giving you
the ultimate inflexibility so that's 12 megapixels per second in image
processing and the a maximum speed of up to 4 m/ second so for context that's
tested on popular game mouse pad surfaces so for context guys that'd be
like if I was moving my mouse this fast
like probably faster like no one actually well okay maybe someone
actually moves like that over a very short distance but either way it should be able to handle it um let's go back up
back to the box over here uh 16 bits per axis up to a th000 reports per second
that's great for a wireless mouse there's only a few that are capable of
that and durability of 20 million clicks for the buttons and 250 kilometers for
the feed although Unfortunately they don't say what surface that is on so
apparently the buttons are fingerprint resistant it's you can recharge and
handle data over single connection it has five onboard memory profiles which
you can switch between with this button 13 programmable buttons and you can
adjust your DPI on the fly now one of
the coolest Logitech features that they really introduced so here let's go
through what's in here um but I'll talk about the scroll wheel in a minute so
you've got an extension cord for the wireless receiver and it does not use
the same unified Wireless receiver that their other products are capable of
connecting to this is a special one and you it is just for your gaming mouse
because the data rates required are higher than on their consumer grade
products so there you go this extension cable is about um I don't know about a
little less than a lonus armspan so it must be around 5 ft long and then you
can run that to somewhere where you're going to have good reception and there are flat bottom pieces here so you can
stick it to something or do whatever else you want with it we've also got a cable that can be used to charge the
mouse or run in wired mode so this one
right here is not braided or anything like that in fact out of all the mice
I've seen so far from their new GS series The g500s is the only one that's
had a braided cable it doesn't really affect performance but it's one of those
premium feeling things that I wouldn't have minded seeing if they could include
it so you can see how it plugs in right here so you can plug it into charge
unplug it to not charge and it'll look just like a Wired Mouse when you are not
operating it in that fashion let's have a look at what else they've got included
here look like a setup guide plug the thing into the thing in all likelihood
warranty information it does have a three-year warranty it should be noted
that logitech's warranty is absolutely legendary and I've personally
experienced it in the past many times they don't even require you to ship the
product back to them at all so here's the battery a love to see that if you
guys have been watching my videos for any kind of period of time you'll know I
love Sano anal Loops oh I guess now they're pan Panasonic whatever well this
one still has the Sano branding on it I love anal Loops they're the best
rechargeable batteries they're awesome and the cool thing about anal Loops is
it means your g700s is going to arrive ready to play you don't have to charge
it before you use it because they hold a charge incredibly well uh there's an
onoff switch at the bottom so you can turn it off when you're in transit and
they have enormous nons or enormous uh
slippy pads on the bottom of the mouse this doesn't affect how much friction
the mouse has with the surface below it because that's not how friction works
but what it does do is it effectively makes the mouse more durable because
there's hair there there's more surface to rub off over time so that's I guess
how they're getting that 250 km durability on the mouse itself so let's
go ahead and uh let's get this uh get this mouse going on here so we've got a
right-handed shape which we've come to expect from Logitech gaming mice they
don't have a left-handed Mouse I kind of wish they do one and I know that many
left-handed Gamers do but it's a very ergonomic shape now you can see here
this is designed for Palm the shape here fits right into your palm and you can
quite comfortably especially if you have slightly larger hands than me I have quite small hands so you can see there's
a fair bit of space left at the end of the buttons and my index finger sits in
such a way that I'm kind of between these two so if you had medium-sized
hands you'd sit right here where you can very easily press this one this one or
this one so those are the G8 G9 and G10 buttons these are fully programmable
buttons um and your hand would also sit
a little bit more forward on the mouse and you know it would be a little bit more more comfortable so I wouldn't
necessarily recommend this for people with super small hands like I have on
the side of the mouse you've got four more G buttons as well as the battery
indicator and a very very nice coating finish here we've seen this already on
some of the other GS series mice and it's equally impressive here however I
haven't used them for long enough to get my hands sweaty to the point where I've
observed the difference in the hydrophobic coating now back to the
scroll wheel this is such an awesome Logitech feature I oh I love it so
normally it's a clicky scroll wheel here I'm going to hold it up to the mic up
here so you guys can hear got that click can you hear that
all right awesome now check this out by pressing this gear button this disengage
button here free Spin so if you don't use your
mouse only for gaming and you also use it for work or maybe you want to bind
something to like a bajillion scroll wheel flicks you can just flick the
mouse you can browse through Excel sheets web pages whatever else very very
quickly you just go flick stop when you see the thing you want to see and it's
absolutely awesome I believe this button right yep this button right here is
cycling through the DPI profiles so we got 1 2 3 four five different DPI
profiles just by clicking on that button up at the top but you can rebind the G
buttons to whatever you want so the total number of buttons is count them up
with me 1 2 3 one on the click right
there five sort of counts cuz it only does this so 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 11
buttons let's see if that's what they say on the box cuz maybe I missed one
but you know what they don't seem to say it all so thank you for checking out my
oh they say 13 what we'll be back I
figured it out this Mouse balls so hard it has a tilting scroll wheel forgot
about that so four on the side which I can reach easily even with my smaller
hands three over here on the left which I can reach two of easily and there's a
third one that I could reach but it'd be a little bit tough so that's seven total
8 9 10 11 12 13 thank you for checking
