Score: 82/100
Redragon M801
Score: 78/100Rankings
The Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED is a wireless gaming mouse that excels with a HERO 12K sensor, ultra-low latency and exceptional 250-hour battery life. Its relatively heavy weight and small ergonomic footprint limit comfort for larger hands and left-handed users. Ideal for small-to-medium hand sizes, budget-conscious travelers, and FPS gamers who prioritize performance over ultra-light weight.
The Redragon M801 is a rechargeable wireless mouse offering dual-mode connectivity, 9 programmable buttons, and up to 16,000 DPI with RGB lighting. At 120 g it is heavier than many competitors and its software can be complex for newcomers. It fits budget-focused MMO players who value macro flexibility and long battery life.

Products in the top-left offer the best value (high score, low price).
Professional reviewers commend the G305 for its HERO sensor accuracy, ultra-low 1 ms LIGHTSPEED latency, and impressive 250-hour battery life, all packaged at an affordable price. However, they criticize its 99 g weight, small ergonomics for larger hands, lack of advanced scroll options, and reliance on a non-rechargeable AA battery, making it less ideal for ultralight or left-handed users.
Everyday users love the mouse's long battery endurance, precise tracking, and travel-friendly size, often citing great value for the price. Common complaints revolve around the relatively heavy weight, cramped fit for larger hands, occasional side-button mushiness, and the need to replace AA batteries.

“build, RGB implementation, magnetic dongle storage, and software features like DPI up to 16,000 and macro tools”
Professional reviewers commend the M801 for its pinpoint accuracy, ultra-quick wired and wireless response, and robust feature set including nine programmable buttons and high DPI. The build quality, magnetic dongle storage, and comprehensive software are highlighted as strong points, though the lack of Mac support and unspecified switch durability are noted as minor drawbacks.
Everyday users generally praise the mouse for its smooth dual-mode performance, vibrant RGB lighting, and the convenience of long battery life with Type-C charging. Common themes include appreciation for the extensive macro capabilities and occasional frustration with the software learning curve and the mouse's heavier weight compared to lighter competitors.
