Whether or not they're worth the cost is going to be the result of a combination of factors I don't think they're priced out of competition, they're just not bargains either.
Meanwhile, the good Logitech products have often commanded moderate to premium prices, so bargain hunters shouldn't be surprised to see these two on the high end of the scale. Corsair made a mouse that was definitely smaller, but at the cost of intuitive button design on the sides. Comfort-wise, the G710+ is going to have a tougher time than the G600, whose market is essentially self-selecting by virtue of how big these mice generally have to be. I think the primary battles the G710+ and G600 are going to fight in the market will be based on comfort and price. I'd easily recommend the G600 over the Corsair M90 or Razer Naga, though. The G600 can be found hovering between $60 and $80 in retail online, but that should surprise no one good mice usually command high prices, and they're usually worth it. With the G600, it really does just come down to whether or not the mouse feels comfortable to you, but the design is incredibly smart and I can see a lot of people getting fantastic mileage out of it. I think the $149 MSRP is a bit onerous, but the K90 was selling for roughly as much when it released at around $129 the G710+ should at least be competitive, though I personally would give the slight nod to the K90.Īs for the G600 mouse, the hardware itself has no real weaknesses in my opinion other than a paucity of the accoutrements typically afforded higher end Logitech mice. Beyond that, the G710+ experience is going to be up to how you feel about the switches themselves. The white LED backlighting with configurable brightness and zones is pleasing to the eye and can be adjusted to suit the individual's needs, and I'm always happy to see a wrist rest included (one of the primary reasons I stuck with a Corsair K90 for my personal keyboard). The keyboard layout is traditional for American markets, so no learning curve there. Outside of that, I can't help but feel like Logitech has essentially thought of pretty much everything you're going to want or need. The G710+ keyboard hardware has, in my opinion, only one major flaw: the glossy finish surrounding the keyboard. Because Logitech is one of the biggest names in peripherals for users across all markets, it's not going to be too hard to evaluate the feel of the G710+ and G600 on your own in retail. So I want to be clear: I'm trying to evaluate these products based on how well they might serve the needs of the individuals who they'll be best suited for, outside of the fact that ultimately they're clearly not for me. You're not going to be able to hit everyone, and my experiences with the Logitech G710+ keyboard and G600 mouse are a testament to that.
You want to make the product the best you conceivably can while making it as comfortable as possible for the broadest set of users. The essential problem with any peripheral review is that peripherals are very subjective the key places to win are going to wind up being fit, finish, and features. Conclusion: Both Recommendable for the Right Users
