The Logitech G309 Lightspeed is a potent and capable lightweight rodent that packs in a lot for a modest price. It's currently £30 on Amazon as part of a hefty 63% discount from its £80 retail price from the big online retailer that nets you a 25,600 DPI Hero sensor, versatile wireless connectivity, up to 300 hours of battery life and more besides for a bargain price.

A hefty discount on a very capable mouse.
The Logitech G309 Lightspeed is a potent and capable lightweight rodent that packs in a lot for a modest price. It's currently £30 on Amazon as part of a hefty 63% discount from its £80 retail price from the big online retailer that nets you a 25,600 DPI Hero sensor, versatile wireless connectivity, up to 300 hours of battery life and more besides for a bargain price. I liked this mouse when it first launched at full retail value, so to get it for £30 is quite the steal.
The G309 benefits from a smaller chassis that makes it suitable for folks with small to medium-sized hands, plus it's quite fetching in either the black or white, with grey accents if you go for the latter (although you'll pay virtually double for the white at the time of writing). There are a total of seven buttons, with sensible placement, and this rodent weighs 86g. That might not be as light as a G Pro X Superlight or other, more affordable, ultralight choices, but it's still decently light enough to feel nippier than a hefty G502, for instance. That mass includes the bundled AA battery for up to 300 hours of battery life, although if you remove the battery (and use Logi's £75 Powerplay 2 charging mouse mat), then it drops down to 68g, putting it more into the superlight category.
Inside, you get a Hero sensor with up to 25,600 DPI's worth of sensitivity for zippy performance where you need it, plus the Lightforce hybrid switches provide both the tactility of a standard mechanical switch with the speed of an optical one. Granted, the Lightspeed wireless receiver doesn't provide additional speed benefits such as 8000Hz polling, but for most folks, the combination of that USB-A receiver and the addition of Bluetooth make this a potent mouse for both work and play. If you wanted any RGB, you will have to go without with this mouse, and its G Hub software integration is quite basic. I suppose that's the price you pay for a more affordable mouse (or rather don't).
If you want to grab a potent wireless gaming mouse for a bargain price, this Logitech G309 Lightspeed for just £30 from Amazon is a steal.
