About the Logitech G203 LIGHTSYNC
The G203 is Logitech G's entry-level mouse and a safe first gaming mouse. Its classic shape with two side buttons on the left fits most hand sizes for a right-handed grip, it weighs 85 g, and the six buttons can be remapped in Logitech G HUB.
The gaming-grade sensor goes from 200 to 8,000 DPI and reports at 1,000 Hz, which is plenty for most games at this price. LIGHTSYNC RGB lighting can show about 16.8 million colours, and settings saved to the onboard memory with G HUB follow you to another computer. It is wired only, with a 2.1 m cable, and its sensor is a step below the HERO sensors of the G305 and G502.
