"G309" Product Overview

Wired connection is not possible

"G309The connection method for2.4GHz wirelessandBluetoothThis means that you cannot connect it via a wired connection. If you want to use it via a wired connection, please be careful.

polling rateThere is no indication of this on the official website, but I think it's probably up to 1000Hz.

There is a button on the bottom of the device to switch between connection methods, making it easy to switch between them. Bluetooth can also be used with smartphones and tablets, so it is recommended for those who want to use it with devices other than PCs.

Powered by AA batteries or wireless power supply

"G309" does not seem to have a battery, so the power source isAA batterymosquitoWireless Power SupplyIt will be.

For AA batteries,Up to 600 hours per unitHowever, the disadvantage is that the device becomes heavier due to the dry cell batteries. For wireless charging, Logitech's proprietary systemPOWERPLAYNeed a mouse pad forAs long as you place the mouse on the mouse pad, it will continue to be powered, so you won't need batteries. This mouse pad is also sold at a reasonable price, so I think it's better to power it with batteries.

The price is 12,980 yen, which is about average.

The price of the "G309" is 12,980 yen. I think this price is in the middle range among Logitech G gaming mice. The most expensive ones are over 20,000 yen, so I think it is a relatively cheap and affordable price range compared to products in that range.

The height of the main body is 22mm, making it extremely thin.

"G515"teeth,TenkeylessThis type of gaming keyboard alsoHeight 22mmIt is also characterized by its low height, so it may be suitable for people who find that a tall keyboard makes their wrists tired or that their fingers get caught on keys they don't intend to touch.

Another advantage is that the low height makes it easier to store and carry.

Can be used on smartphones and tablets

Just like the G309, it can be used with Android and iOS smartphones and tablets via Bluetooth. When working on a tablet with a large screen, you can connect the G515 for efficient typing.

The G515 is equipped with a battery that can be used continuously for up to 36 hours. Since it is not very long, if you use it for a long time, we recommend that you always keep the cable plugged in or charge it when not in use.

Choose from tactile or linear switch types

The switch types of "G515" are:tactilemosquitolinearThe blue switch has a loud typing sound.Clicky-It seems there isn't.

The price seems to be the same regardless of which you choose, so choose the one you like. The actuation pressure is slightly different, 45g for tactile and 43g for linear. The keystroke and actuation point are the same, so don't worry about it.

The price is 21,890 yen, which is just a little bit expensive?

The price of the "G515" is 21,890 yen. Compared to other gaming keyboards from Logitech G, I think it is in the middle price range or just a little higher.

"PRO X60This may be a good option for people who find prices like these too expensive and difficult to buy.

summary

I think the "G309" and "G515" are gaming mice and gaming keyboards that balance performance and price. There are some unique features in the connection method and the size of the main unit, so if you are considering purchasing one, please pay attention to that.
