 In late 2014, Logitech came out with the G302 Daedalus Prime MOBA gaming mouse. Linus was going to review it, but seasons changed, time passed by, the weeks became the months, became the Linus forgot. So a very short introduction to the Logitech G302 Daedalus Prime, and a more full review of the new G303 Daedalus Apex. Two mice that you might think look the same, and well you'd be right, but there are a few differences, probably. You'll find out after the intro. So the idea behind the G302 was to build a mouse that was ideal for Dota and the lesser game League of Legends. Small and lightweight so you don't get fatigued moving your mouse back and forth with a very fast click due to the minimized mouse... Mouth? I meant mouse button travel distance. And Logitech achieved that. Twice now, I guess, because the G303 Daedalus Apex is here. It weighs a mere 87 grams without the cable, about the same as the Abyssus or G100S pre-weight mod, but it's not as light as the FinalMask 2015's 74 grams. The shape is a bit unusual, and it's a love or hate it characteristic. The front and back tapers off pretty sharply, and the angular back and middle leaves you with less contact surface than other mice. If you have big hands, you might find yourself a bit cramped, but if you have small hands, the sharp angles might cause some soreness. Keep in mind, while this mouse has a symmetrical shape, it is not ambidextrous. This is a right-handed mouse for right-handed people who primarily use a fingertip or claw grip. As for the rest of the physical overview, in spite of its featherweight class, the G303's build quality feels solid, with none of the creaky plastic feel that is common on lesser mice. There's a left and right mouse button in their expected positions. Logitech's been doing this a while, so it would be hard for them to screw that up. What they haven't been doing for a while is what Logitech calls a metal spring button tensioning system, which reduces pre-travel. While a lot of high-performance mice have a left-right mouse button as part of the top shell, the Daedalus has dedicated floating buttons which, overall, results in a very quick and light click that is pretty consistent regardless of where pressure is applied to the button. Although, it's not so light that you accidentally shoot or stab teammates in spawn. Death Adder. The scroll wheel has distinct notches that you can feel and offers only light resistance to actually rolling it. This is good if you want to zoom in and out really quickly, but it does make very precise scroll actuations hard to achieve quickly. Pressing the scroll wheel is unfortunately affected by the light rolling resistance. Sometimes when I press down on the scroll wheel, I'm liable to scroll up or down while I'm at it. Right below it is a DPI switch and finally, two thumb buttons on the left side. The thumb buttons have a short actuation, although it does feel mushy once you do pass the actuation, which is kind of disappointing after you feel the left and right mouse clicks that are just amazing. So what is this mouse? It seems a lot like the G302. Well the G302 Daedalus Prime MOBA gaming mouse is for MOBA players as the name implies, and the G303 is for shooting people in the face. But how do you take the same shell and optimize it for a different game type? When you play in FPS, especially Counter Strike Global Offensive, you have to make rather large mouse movements since you're probably using a low DPI for that extra accuracy. I found that the rubber cable was a bit too inflexible and would give a small but annoying bit of resistance when I would move up or down and get close to my mouse spongy. At high speeds like with flick shots, I found that the G302 was liable to lean to one side or another, losing tracking as it only had mouse feet at the top, center, and bottom. The Cloud9 CSGO team apparently loved the weight and shape of the G302, except for Nothing, who still preferred the G100S, or it has it that Team SoloMid CS team loved it too. Unfortunately the AMO10 sensor wasn't enough. With a maximum tracking speed of about 120 inches per second or 3 meters per second, it just couldn't keep up. I know my flick shot regularly hits 4 meters per second, and I can't even imagine what Cloud9 would hit. Probably higher, they get paid for it. Well Logitech was listening and took this feedback from pro gamers and enthusiasts, which resulted in the new G303. It looks and feels like the G302 with some tweaks for competitive FPS play. The rubber cable was changed to a soft braided cable, and it seems flexible and durable enough. It's a bit thicker and heavier than the cable on the Rockat Compture Military, so sometimes I do find it dragging while the KPM cable stays off my mousepad. On the bottom, they've added two mouse feet on the sides to give it a bit more stability when making high speed movements. Finally, and most importantly, they swapped out the AM010 sensor and replaced it with a PMW3366 sensor, previously only seen in Logitech's flagship G502, making the G303 capable of tracking at speeds in excess of 300 inches per second, or 7.6 meters per second. More than double the AM010 and the G302, double the 3310 sensor found in top gaming mice like the Rival or Compture Military, and even more than the DeathAdder Chroma. In my test, I don't know if it can do 7.6 meters per second, but at the 6 that I would reach at the very fastest, it did handle that perfectly. The G302 was great for MOBAs, now the G303 is also perfect for FPSs, albeit at a higher price point of $69.99. Is it worth the upgrade from the G302? If you find your cable gets in the way, or you can't really do your NoScope 360s because it just doesn't keep up, well, the G303 is an upgrade. But as with all mice, comfort is important, and if the odd shape of the Daedalus doesn't fit, then it doesn't fit. So the G303 is a small lightweight mouse with a flagship sensor that pretty much beats out every other sensor. The left and right click action is fantastic, and now with the flexible cable, it won't get in the way of your flick shots. The shape might offend some, but if you can handle it, the G303 is definitely a mouse ready for esports. Uh oh. No! Why is this coming? Speaking of whatever Edzel was just talking about, did he do a great job today folks? I actually don't know, I haven't watched it yet. I'm shooting this after he filmed it. So anyway, Crunchyroll!
