G9x vs G9? Worth the upgrade?
As a matter of review disclosure, I received the G9x as part of Amazon Vine.
I own a G9 and wrote a prior review for it, indicating it was a fine game mouse which includes a corded laser driven sensor system, on board customizable memory, a cool weight addition system which is not a gimmick--I definitely have a preference for a heavy mouse, customizable LED colors, and a nice scroll wheel. The two changeable grips are great -- you will probably have a preference for one or the other depending on how you use your mouse. The G9 is a nicely constructed, accurate, pleasure to use, feature heavy game mouse, and fully capable of use in any application including games. But, this is not a review on the G9, but rather the G9x... or is it?
The G9x is exactly the same mouse, with exactly the same construction and feature set, except for one thing.... let me quote the Logitech feature blurbs: First, for the G9x, "the G9x extends the promise of the award-winning Logitech G9 Laser Mouse with its next-generation laser sensor... On-the-fly adjustable dpi to go from pixel-precise targeting (200 dpi) to lightning-fast maneuvers (up to 5000 dpi)." And for the G9, "Get uncompromised speed and accuracy from a high-performance Gaming-Grade Laser Engine (adjustable 200 dpi - 3200 dpi)" This apparently is the only difference. An increase from 3200 dpi max for the G9 up to 5000 dpi for the G9x.
My own max speed for playing games without too much twitching is 2500 dpi, and most often I prefer lower speeds. I would never realize the full speed of the G9x, just as I have not realized the full speed of the G9. I do not notice any functional differences playing Crysis, Call of Duty 4, F.E.A.R. series, Fallout 3, or any other fast paced games.
I love both of these mice, but I have to ask the question, at about $60 for the G9, and $100 for the G9x, is the G9x worth another $40 over the G9? I guess if you do the math, 5000 dpi over 3200 dpi is a 56% increase in speed. The $40 premium for the G9x is 66% over the prior price for the G9.
You can make your own decision, but I think the price point for this new mouse is higher than it should be. The G9 and G9x are great mice. Buy whichever one is cheaper, they are exactly the same, and provide exactly the same general features, except for max dpi.
Logitech G9x
When we first reviewed the original Logitech G9 (November 2007), we didn't like it. Specifically, we thought it was uncomfortable to hold, using either of the removable shells. In fact, we described it as "not particularly comfortable for day-to-day mousing" before complaining that it was unsuitable for people who use a traditional palming grip.
We were wrong. After we made a few small adjustments to our grip, we fell in love with the G9--at least when using the grippy palm-friendly Precision body. We still don't like the smooth grip--dubbed Wide Load--and we're generally not fans of having to adjust our grip to suit a mouse, but the smooth response and power-gamer-friendly features that the G9x delivers make this mouse the best we've ever tested.
The Logitech G9x upgrades the mouse's sensor, but the rest of the mouse stays the same.
For the most part, the G9x and the original G9 are identical. The removable shells are the same, the internal weighting system accommodates up to 28 grams of weight, the onboard memory stores up to five profiles, and the scroll wheel switches between crazy-fast click-free scrolling to a more traditional click-to-click scroll at the press of a button. The only difference between the original G9 and the new G9x is its enhanced laser sensor.
Replacing the original G9's variable-sensitivity, 3,200dpi laser sensor is a 5,000dpi laser sensor, for true twitch gamers. At the highest sensitivity settings, moving the mouse a fraction of an inch will blast the cursor across the screen--giving you an edge in fast-paced shooters or RTS games where you need to cover a lot of ground quickly. Want to slow it down for a little sniping? Crank the mouse down as low as 200dpi on the fly, using the sensitivity adjustment buttons directly below the left mouse button. The mouse updates Windows up to 1,000 times per second, for accurate cursor movement no matter how fast you move it.
In its naked, shell-off form, you can see the G9x's removable weight tray. Whether you prefer a light or heavy rodent, you can have it your way.
As before, we love the G9x's profile feature, which lets you switch between pre-configured profiles on the fly on any PC, whether you have Logitech's software installed or not (you will need to have Logitech's software installed to configure the profiles initially, though). The on-mouse LEDs change color based on the profile you're using, so you won't accidentally find yourself in your RTS shooter profile when you fire up Left 4 Dead.
As with the G9, the seams between the G9x's removable shells and the main mouse body get pretty crusty over a long period of time. But everything else about this mouse--from the braided cord to its pair of thumb buttons--is awesome.
+ The best sensor we've ever tested. On-the-fly sensitivity adjustment. Driver-less profiles.
- The satiny texture of the Wide Load shell gets sweaty & gross after long sessions.
Verdict: 10 out of 10
Full-featured Gaming Mouse, Does not disappoint
Logitech G9X Mouse
The Logitech G9 and G9X have been hailed as the top gaming mice picks for quite some time by PC Gamer and other authorities on gaming hardware. I had been profusely disappointed by Microsoft's mice offerings mainly due to their poor reliability. My previous gaming mouse was a Razer Diamondback which served me well for many years. Evaluating the G9X was just icing on the cake since I had been planning to buy one once they first came out.
The G9X uses a high-resolution laser system for tracking. It has 2 primary buttons, 2 side buttons (for RH users only), and the scroll wheel can be pushed side to side, or straight down. On the bottom of the G9X, there is a switch that disengages the micro-clicking feature of the wheel which allows the wheel to free spin. The external grip is interchangeable and it comes with one larger grip that has a slippery rubber texture, while the smaller grip is just textured plastic. The small grip lacks a Teflon decal pad below the screws, but it doesn't seem to affect movement. The cord is braided by a tough fabric material. The color of the LEDs on the top are changed via the software.
There is a weight tray inside the mouse, and I quickly learned how to avoid jamming that tray inside the mouse. I noticed several dozen reviews complaining about this tray that jams up. The root cause is not clipping the weights properly. There are little wings in the tray that fit into the recess of each weight. If they are not fully seated, they can rub against the mouse causing it to jam up. Ensure the wings are all sitting flat, and you're good to go.
The coolest part about the G9X is the on-board memory. The software profile tool is only used to program the mouse! You can save up to 5 profiles, each with a different LED color so you can tell them apart. If you use the mouse on a different computer, it automatically loads the profile without using any software drivers!
Pros: Weight is adjustable, I ended up using only 1-2 4g weights. Side scrolling on the wheel is great, memory settings via profiles is awesome (no drivers are needed), very comfortable to use.
Cons: RH users only, not cordless at this price, very stiff scroll wheel button.
Overall: 5/5 stars
