The Logitech G600 is a solid choice for an MMO gaming mouse. While it was released in 2012, it is considered outdated because it has mechanical switches and a laser sensor (the Avago S9808) that is less precise than newer optical sensors. It weighs 133g and has a wide body, which may not be suitable for those with small hands or who prefer fingertip grips. Its cable isn’t very flexible, and its scroll wheel and main buttons are mediocre.
The G600, on the other hand, has a sloped shape that is comfortable for those with large and average hands, particularly those who use a palm grip. Its scroll wheel can also be tilted left and right.
What distinguishes the G600 is its ability to provide players with quick access to a variety of in-game commands. It has 12 customizable side buttons that are angled in a way that distinguishes them without forcing the player to look down all the time. These buttons are easily accessible, made even more so by the addition of a third click button located under the ring finger, which when pressed, brings up an entire second set of commands. This means that players can use just one hand to access up to 24 different inputs. This feature is a godsend in MMOs where juggling multiple hotbars’ worth of commands is required. Players in games like Final Fantasy XIV can easily navigate their “rotations” without having to contort their fingers around the keyboard.
Despite its low price of around $35, the G600 outperforms other MMO mice on the market in terms of functionality. While there are more expensive options, the G600’s impressive features and value make it a dependable choice for MMO gaming.
