Key takeaways
- Logitech G502 X Lightspeed: 13 programmable controls, rechargeable, 102 g, up to 140 hours per the maker. A lighter option with fewer buttons than the G604.
- Razer Naga V2 Pro: a wireless MMO mouse with swappable side plates. Read the maker’s page for specs.
- Corsair Scimitar line: MMO mice with a side button grid, available in wired and wireless versions.
Of the four Logitech wireless mice in this group, the G604 Lightspeed is the one that still makes the most sense for MMO and macro players, the G703 Lightspeed is the one for players who want a standard-button mouse with a rechargeable battery and a long track record, and the G602 and G700s are older designs that are best treated as used or leftover-stock options. The wired G600, a related MMO favourite, is also covered because many buyers search for it alongside these models.
At a Glance: G703, G604, G602, G700s and G600
| Model | Best for | Key stated specs | Status and limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| G604 Lightspeed | MMO and macro play | 15 programmable controls including six thumb buttons, Lightspeed and Bluetooth, one AA battery, up to 240 hours on Lightspeed, about 135 g with battery | Sensor listed as HERO 16K originally and HERO 25K on newer listings; check which one the listing states |
| G703 Lightspeed | Standard-button wireless play, POWERPLAY users | HERO sensor, internal rechargeable battery, about 35 hours with default lighting and 60 hours with lighting off, about 95 g plus an optional 10 g weight | Released 2019, one reseller marks it end-of-life, shape divides reviewers |
| G602 | Budget-minded MMO use on the used market | 11 programmable controls, two AA batteries, up to 250 hours in Performance mode and 1,440 hours in Endurance mode, about 152 g with two AA | Discontinued per B&H, older sensor generation |
| G700s | Collectors, 13-button fans | 13 buttons, laser sensor with 200 to 8,200 DPI, wired or wireless, one AA NiMH, about 152 g | Discontinued, rated at about 10 hours of battery |
| G600 | Wired MMO play with 20 buttons | 20 buttons, wired | Discontinued, no direct successor |
Which of These Are Still Current in 2026?
None of these is a new release. The G604 and the G703 are the most recent of the group, both from the Lightspeed era, and both are still discussed as buyable products. A reseller listing marks the G703 with the HERO 25K sensor as an end-of-life product, but the listing looks old, and retailers and 2026 reviews still describe it as available, so availability depends on the store. B&H lists the G602 and the G700s as discontinued. The G600 is described by marketplace and buying-guide pages as discontinued around 2021, but those pages do not cite a Logitech statement, so treat that date as unconfirmed.
The practical consequence is that G602, G700s and G600 purchases are used or leftover-stock purchases, where condition, battery state and price vary widely. RTINGS names the G604 Lightspeed as the successor to the G602 and rates it a better mouse.
G604 Lightspeed
The G604 is Logitech’s wireless MMO mouse. Reviews and retailer listings give it 15 programmable controls, including six thumb buttons, a hyper-fast scroll wheel with a wheel-lock button, and a switch under the wheel to change between Lightspeed and Bluetooth. The wheel-lock button and the connection switch cannot be reprogrammed.
It runs on a single AA battery. Logitech claims up to 240 hours on Lightspeed and about five and a half months on Bluetooth. Weight with the battery is 135 g, and one review lists 137 g in its text but 135 g in its spec list. The sensor is listed as HERO 16K in several reviews, with 100 to 16,000 DPI, while current listings say HERO 25K with 25,600 DPI. One deal listing says the 25K figure comes through a software update, so the sensor may differ by production date or listing.
Reviewers describe the six-button thumb grid as the main reason to pick it, and the Bluetooth mode as handy for a laptop. The weight is the downside, since 135 g is heavy by current standards. It suits palm-grip players with medium to large hands who value buttons over weight.
G703 Lightspeed
The G703 is a standard-layout wireless mouse with an internal rechargeable battery. Logitech claims up to 35 hours with default lighting and up to 60 hours with lighting off. It weighs about 95 g, with an optional 10 g weight included, and the weight must be removed for POWERPLAY compatibility. It measures 124 x 68 x 43 mm and was released in June 2019. The original version used a HERO 16K sensor, and later units were updated to the HERO 25K, with 25,600 DPI and zero smoothing.
TechRadar called it a competent gaming mouse but said the reviewer could not get on with its shape, which shows how personal the body design is. RTINGS publishes comparisons against the G305 and the G502 for buyers who want to see the differences. The G703 has the advantage of POWERPLAY support, which keeps it charged while you play.
G602
The G602 is an earlier wireless MMO mouse that put battery life first. It has 11 programmable controls, takes two AA batteries, and Logitech lists up to 250 hours in Performance mode and up to 1,440 hours in Endurance mode. You can remove one battery to change the weight and balance. TechPowerUp measured about 107 g with no battery, 130 g with one AA and 153 g with two AA, while another source gives about 152 g.
It remains a reasonable candidate for a relaxed MMO setup if you can find one in good condition, but the sensor generation is older than the Lightspeed models, and the G604 improves on it with more buttons, Bluetooth and a newer sensor. Beware of listings priced far above the original, since sellers of discontinued gear sometimes ask collector prices.
G700s
The G700s is older again. B&H lists it as discontinued, and one source says it launched in March 2013 and was discontinued around 2017. It has 13 programmable buttons, a laser sensor (Avago ADNS 9808) with 200 to 8,200 DPI, and works wired or wireless. It uses a single rechargeable AA NiMH cell with a rated life of about 10 hours of continuous use, and users report much shorter life in practice, with one reviewer noting about three days on low power settings. Weight is about 152 g according to Tom’s Guide and another reviewer.
Unless you are replacing a worn unit or want the 13-button layout, the G700s is hard to recommend over a G604. Battery cell wear is the risk with any used rechargeable-cell mouse, and you may need to replace the cell. Follow the manual when charging, and do not use damaged or swollen cells.
G600 and the MMO Mouse Gap
The G600 is a wired mouse with 20 buttons, including the G-Shift ring-finger button that users most often say they miss. Buying guides report that it is discontinued and has no direct wireless successor. There is a Japanese version, the Logicool G600t, which enthusiasts import. Alternatives named in the guides include the Razer Naga V2 Pro, Corsair Scimitar and Redragon M908. Those guides are low-quality sources, so confirm any specs on the maker’s page before buying. Logitech suggests, according to those guides, the G502 X or the G604 as stand-ins, though users view them as downgrades in button count.
Weight Comparison
| Model | Weight as reported | Power |
|---|---|---|
| G703 | About 95 g, optional 10 g weight | Internal rechargeable, POWERPLAY compatible |
| G604 | 135 g with battery | One AA |
| G602 | About 130 g with one AA, 152 to 153 g with two | Two AA |
| G700s | About 152 g | One rechargeable AA or USB |
Pick X If… Decision Table
| Pick this | If you |
|---|---|
| G604 | play MMOs or use many macros, want Bluetooth and an AA battery, and accept the weight |
| G703 | want a standard-button wireless mouse with a rechargeable battery and POWERPLAY, and its shape suits your grip |
| G602 | find one used in good condition and want a low-cost MMO mouse with very long battery life |
| G700s | specifically want its 13-button layout and accept an old rechargeable cell |
| G600 or an alternative | need 20 buttons and accept a wired mouse |
Alternatives
- Logitech G502 X Lightspeed: 13 programmable controls, rechargeable, 102 g, up to 140 hours per the maker. A lighter option with fewer buttons than the G604.
- Razer Naga V2 Pro: a wireless MMO mouse with swappable side plates. Read the maker’s page for specs.
- Corsair Scimitar line: MMO mice with a side button grid, available in wired and wireless versions.
Buying Notes for Used or Leftover Stock
- Ask for the exact model and sensor version, since the G604 and G703 have both HERO 16K and HERO 25K listings.
- Check that the USB receiver is included, because Lightspeed mice need their own receiver.
- For rechargeable-cell models, ask about cell wear and replace cells with the correct type from the manual.
- Expect support to be limited for discontinued models, and keep software on a version that still detects them.
