Leading computer accessories and peripherals maker, Logitech, has announced the new Logitech G line — six redesigned mice and keyboard favourites and two new headsets, to meet the high demands of gamers.
The new line was a result of studies on how the hand interacts with a device during gameplay. The results from the studies translated to advancements in areas of durability and comfort — using advanced surface materials like fingerprint-resistant coatings on heavy contact zones, hydrophobic coating on palm areas and double UV coating on keys
Critical to all gamers is high-accuracy cursor control. The Logitech G100s Optical Gaming Mouse and G500s Optical Gaming Mouse feature the new Delta Zero sensor technology that offers precision cursor control.
