"left-right hand switching" as a feature is a red-flag.

99% of users will not use/need this. Its more of an aesthetic mouse rather than an ergonomic/useful one.

That's 90% of users, thank you.
There are dozens of us! DOZENS!!

I...don't understand this comment. Are you saying the right hand is not a mirror of the left hand but is instead somehow functionally or structurally different?

Honestly, it would be cool if you map all four side buttons to do different things. I do that already with a G300s and Logitech software

Be careful because he does "reviews" not real reviews.

Anyone able to tell me what the deal is with the PAW 3395 sensor?

Been looking for a mouse for gaming, but don't want to pay $100 for it.

Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse is $30. It's a workhorse, no dock but batteries last for months, and it's good for gaming. I have had it for 3 years changed the batteries 5 times and its never missed a click.
