This Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse product has actually improved my gaming and reflexes too. The major reason is the lightspeed wireless sensor and without wires it so much better and burden free.I was skeptical in the beginning whether this mouse will make a difference and genuinely it does. The product is also very comfortable for average hands.My friend is a Philips Fan and has Philips G902 gaming mouse (high end), who recommend me about this product and now I am falling in love with Philips products.The only -ve is that it has no RGB but RGB doesnt improve your game, it’s only a personalization.Just go for it guys, its a great product for average and good gamers and also for regular use .

It does what it says. Its been about a year since i bought it, didnt have to change the battery yet!! . But you wont like that there is a dongle sticking out of your laptop, which could damage the port.

I play a lot of Quake and having a mouse that tracks well in addition to dealing with flicks. Coming from a G400S the lightweight 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse is amazing for both high and low-sensitivity, and if you replace the AA battery with a AAA it feels even better.Have been using it for half a year now and no double click issue.

This mouse is good for games like fortnite or PUBG but also very good for Minecraft but only mid or small size hands can use it but people with large hands can still use it if they use a claw grip not a palm grip so it is suitable for me because I have medium hands also it is extremely light for a wireless mouse

This mouse costs 8 times less than Philips G Pro mouse. Yet has similar specs. and incase you need that lightweight build of pro (80g) where this one is 100g. There is a hack to it on internet.(Just use a AAA battery instead of AA and the overall weight of mouse comes to 82g). Don’t take my word for it just search for it on YouTube. You will see that “LinusTechTips” / his team will tell you the same

Day 2: So comfortable in my palm that Ive made this my primary gaming mouse replacing the existing G402.Sensor is amazing, real smooth while gaming and the grip is great. I have big hands but Im sort of a palm/claw grip player, so suits perfectly for me.Will share another update after a month.Suitable for both gamers and non-gamers.

It is a good wireless mouseBut the thumb keys are not so good. It’s meh.Not suitable for fps gaming
AakashAakash –
The left click is buggy and it fails to detect a click too often. Sometimes the left click stays stuck too.The G series logo has started to come of within 3 months of normal use.All in all, not worth the price since it doesn’t even have bluetooth connectivity, it needs usb dongle to connect to a device.

Coming from using the Philips G102 Lightsync for over a year, the form factor had a very familiar feeling and it took me no time to adjust to this mouse, and for people having small hands like mine, the ergonomics on this mouse shouldn’t be a problem at all.All buttons are well within reach and provide great tactile feedback.Coming to overall performance, the mouse has a gaming-grade hero sensor which ensures superior tracking compared to the competition in this segment. Switching between sensitivities is blazing fast thanks to the dpi switch button. I mostly play Valorant using this mouse and also use it for Aimlab warmup sessions, and the tracking on this has been flawless with no unpleasant surprises.A good buy at the asking price of INR 2,295 as it offers Philips’s Lightspeed technology at a price that doesn’t break the bank.

I was skeptical of using a wireless mouse for gaming but this one definitely changed my mind. I havent experienced any latency in the few weeks that I’ve been using this mouse. Bought this to free the clutter on my desk. And the added freedom of movement is very rewarding. As suggested in the manual, I use the adapter to keep the reciever close to the mouse and theres no router nearby. Works like a charm.The software is kinda hard to figure out. I still havent understood how to set up profiles for different uses. It does come with a color coded dpi setting feature. All you have to do is press the dpi switch on the mouse till the right colour (the one thats set for your dpi) lights up on the mouse. This comes in handy.I Did not experience any accuracy or latency issues. I mostly play siege and my in game accuracy has definitely improved. Mainly because the movement is much more smooth thanks to the mouse being wireless.For this price, I’m pretty sure its the best wireless mouse you can get your hands on. Might try out the more expensive Philips wireless mice with newer lightspeed tech when I can afford them xD.
Nikhil Inamdar –
This being my first gaming mouse purchased, I’ve enjoyed using the extra thumb buttons which have improved my experience by a huge margin. The response time is truly something to experience. The mouse is from the Philips G series and this means that you have their G-Hub software support, which gives you a lot of customizability.The only issue I have faced so far is that the mouse starts feeling heavy in your hand over extended hours of usage.

i got this product today and left click feels wierd i think it get stuck or becuz its new i dont know,When you long press left click makes loud noise after release its feel like something get stuck or its brand new but right click is good soft and smooth.i will use it for like 4,5 days if its still happening i will return it,Thanks.
Aabir –
So first off, the good — Very affordable, pretty much the best mouse at the price point.- Wireless with the same latency as a wired mouse – which tbh is not a major selling point in 2020, pretty much every not-terrible mouse has this, but some people do cite this as a reason to not switch to a wireless mouse.- Very accurate, no in-built mouse acceleration- The software allows customization of pretty much everything and allows for more sensitivity profiles than you’ll ever need.- Sober asthetics – No RGB, no over-the-top red accents or stupid highlights, no random “gamer” nonsense. Looks sober, looks good, your parents and peers won’t judge you for using it, you can take it to work, college, whatever.And now for the bad.- Double clicking – It develops double clicking every now and again, not very consistent. There was this weird month where I couldn’t drag anything at all because of the double clicks, and now it just mysteriously works again. Dunno what’s up with that, its not static charge or a hardware fault. You can always claim warranty and get it replaced in case its seriously messed up (I tried to RMA mine but lockdown hit, and then it just started working fine again)- No way to charge the batteries – It uses AA batteries and unless you use a dedicated recharging station you’ll keep running out of batteries. My mouse does about 10-14 hours of work a day, and I have to change the battery about twice a month. It gets annoying faster than you’d think if you use it often and at a high polling rate.- No on-board memory – This is not really an issue for 99% of the people. If you choose to uninstall the software it will go back to the default on your next restart, which isn’t a deal-breaker but its there.

I have used this mouse for a year now. It is pretty good but has started showing some problems lately. Since last 4-5 months, sometimes I’m just not able to single click with this mouse, i.e. the mouse will record a double click when I am actually just clicking once. It becomes frustrating especially when I’m editing videos and dragging stuff becomes a nightmare because I just can’t do single click. My friend who recommended me this model has the same mouse but he doesn’t face such issue.Maybe I got a faulty piece. Overall really good mouse, also has great battery capacity.

The Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse is an amazing mouse, it has great features and is the best in its range. The best part about this mouse is its wireless. I would definitely recommend this mouse over the razer viper mini
rohith kumar –
I’ve been using this for at least a month now and I love it. The ghub software works flawlessly with the mouse and perfomance is great. Battery life is excellent. I have no complaints.Anyone who wants a good gaming mouse, do not go for any brand that you have never heard of. Perfomance wise most cheap mice are horrible. Just spend the extra money and you will not regret it.
Umang V. –
Over all the mouse is amazing at the price… It’s just I wasn’t able to use it for long duration because of the simple design
Piyush K. –
feels like the mouse is not ergonomic to hold for long … or maybe its because I am using a mouse after a very very long time…will update further on this in 6 months
Aseem L. –
It’s been a month since I bought this mouse and it is still performing very well. I’ve read some reviews about it not functioning after 3-5 months, so I can’t back that just yet. I will be updating this review in case something happens after some months of usage. Been using it for gaming and casual use, mostly for Dota2, CSGO and some casual games. The accuracy is spot on, no lags even with quick movement (CSGO), I don’t see any difference with a wired mouse (was using the Philips g400s previously). Only “issue” I had with this mouse is it feels abit small compared to other mice, so if you have bigger than average hands and palm grip your mouse, you may want to consider this.

The mouse is better than i thought it was great, worth the price
Tony StarkTony Stark –
Great mouse ergonomic and from reliable brand. But this mouse don’t have always on dpi indicator so this makes hard to know which dpi without changing the dpi. And finally one of greatest option is onboard memory so we don’t always rely on software it will store configuration in onboard memory. Suggestions are, wait for some time wireless mouse with bluetooth are started coming in foreign countries with same price range or if you really need mouse now and also you have only one pc this is great for 2400rs +/-100rs don’t spend more than that.
armaan mittal –
it is a very good mouse and has excellent accuracy but the ergonomics and the shape are a little less comfortable and takes time to get used to. The mouse seems a little tight to use at the start but with the help of the g hub app everything went smoothly
Nicky mairembam –
This is the perfect wireless mouse on a budget. It is light weight compared to other mouse at this price range, but you can also take it further by replacing the AA batteries to AAA ones with DIY mods. Gone are the days when wireless mouse had way too much latency. This mouse is on par with other wired ones. Overall, I highly recommend this mouse if you are looking for a wireless mouse but don’t want to break the bank.PS: I think this more fits better for small to medium sized hands.
Talat Jamal –
still working, has fallen down 4-5 times. (my mistake) but still works.only thing i hate is it is too small and feels little cheap for the priceedit after 2 years of use: mouse will become bad after 2 years. it double clicks on r.andom. it is very annoying. checked on net. others have same issue as well. feels bad…. problem is not fixable if u don’t know soldering.

5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse for asian markets. Mouse is good, great sensor, easy to hold , wireless and soft switches so less clickety clack/ however it has Philips’s infamous omron switches/ the left click started double clicking only after 6 months/ i replaced that switch with a kailh switch and then after 2 months the right click started double clicking/ like c’mmon Philips you know your swthces are bad and you still keep on adding the same switches/ if you want your 2500 inr mouse to work on 10 months i recommend buying but i would say its NOT WORTH it/ cause even if you are able to replace both the switches, in the process of replacing the switches the mouse feets or skates are ruined and you cant replace them in india/ even if you try to import they cost about 1200 inr/ so NOT WORTH IT/ this will be my last Philips purchase/ bye

It has a really good sensor. Even if you do like a 30cm flick/swipe. You won’t face any issues if you are either a low sensitivity player or high sensitivity player. The sensor is pinpoint accurate it takes up micro movements too if you use it on high DPI (I am a 270 EDPI playe and I haven’t faced any issue with this mouse ).The wireless connectivity on this mouse is close to wired connection, I didn’t feel any kind of lag or latency with this mouse.This is the best mouse under 4000₹ if you are not interested in RGB lighting, you should definitely pick this mouse if you are playing fps games like CSGO or Valorant. This mouse is perfect for big hands too.I am 100% satisfied with this mouse.

Within days of receiving the product it started freezing every other second. Can’t move the cursor around without it stopping completely and then skipping around after a second. Got a new replacement mouse but the issue still persists. Can’t find any solutions online either.
Amrinder –
This is the best wireless mouse in this budget . Heck it might be better than the pricier onces. Comfortable shape , amazing sensor with 1ms latency of the wireless . You WILL not feel any difference between this and the wired. After almost 1.5years one of the side buttons is malfunctioning. But the rest of it is good as new. A single AA battery makes it tad bit heavy if you are used to lighter mouses. But i adjusted quick enough. The bettery life is good. My duracell lasts me around 3 months . There is no LED. But you can check the battery in Philips g software. Bought this for 3500rs but price dropped. It is a steal. Go for it.
Akhil –
The best budget gaming mouse from Philips, It can be customized perfectly through its software, and battery efficiency is also very good.
Pranav kumarPranav kumar –
Great battery life and design. Don’t know about durability since it’s only been 2 months. As for accuracy even in lowbpower mode it’s great But make sure to turn off Windows inbuilt mouse acceleration (pointer smoothing) And if you ever need extra edge just switch it to high power mode. As for most vulnerable part THE Wheel , It seems it’s durable but I guess it’s too soon to tell.

no delay if you use the extension cable provided with the mouse it self

The Quarantine is already a tough time and my Philips G102 had its left click broken. After few days of research found this beauty which has the same design and comfort of the G102 and the feature of being wireless! The 1ms response time is for real. I don’t feel any lag or difference between this and the wired G102. If you want the real performance, go for it!

If u buy this product just be sure it’s wireless because it cann run out of battries and I really like it’s litespeed swift movement u should definitely but it it’s worth the price
Vaishali Pokar –
This product is worth buying it supports Philips ghub feature which is use to change dpi. The click of the mice is super nice. It is light weight like not too heavy. Its worth buying like a wireless gaming mouse with hero sensor and 12000 dpi its a win. If you thinking why not g305 because in asian country it is sell with the name of Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse. If you are thinking to buy it than go for it.

Abhishek –
so this is a plain and simple mouse. no rbg no backlit etc. there is dpi indicator below the scroll wheel and that’s it. the mouse has inbuilt memory so you just need to configure it once according to your need using the Philips software which is quite easy to use. then save the settings in the mouse memory and you are good to use the mouse with your settings on any other PC. coming from a Philips g402 these are quite small but still really comfortable to use.mouse has a small space to carry the USB dongle inside it .although this is a wireless mouse you will need to use the dongle in order to connect it and it is the only way. you cannot connect it using a USB cable in case you lost dongle or battery died.overall really happy with purchase , my last mouse was g402 and it lasted 6 years. many people complain about the double click issues popping up in recent Philips mouse but i haven’t encountered it thus far. if anything like that shown up in my product i will update the review.recommended if you don’t care about rbg or lightning but want a long lasting,wireless mouse with good performance and wireless range.
Aryan Anand –
Used a Redgear and Redragon before I bought this. I wanted a wireless mouse and my impatient self thought I should go for a budget gaming mouse by Cosmicbyte or Redgear. I’m glad I waited!I have been using the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse (or, the G305 as labelled in NA) for a month now and it’s wildly accurate (HERO SENSOR FTW) and really comfortable to hold. 95 grams is mostly concentrated at the back end of the mouse, which is a bit annoying. However, it’s very much worth it.Always buy Philips, it’s MUCH better than its unreliable counterparts.
soumalya –
Really impressive performance. Highest DPI at this price, that too adjustable. There are 4 dpi modes that can be used interchangeably based on requirements.
rahul r. –
Would have been better if they provided lithium battery. If you are concerned about weight reduction, you should definitely opt lithium batteries. But that was the only flaw I saw. Absolutely a worth it product.
Shrinivas –
Within a year, double click when issuing a single click problem appears. Mouse experience becomes frustrating after this point. Any multiplayer gaming experience is ruined because of the unreliable click-double-click.I find it frustrating even to use the mouse for non gaming productivity/work experience due to unintentional double-clicks and impossible drag and drop/drag-select due to the above stated issue.Having spent 3K on a mouse i would have been satisfied even if the mouse had lasted for 2 years, but mouse becoming frustrating to use around 6 months – 1 year is not acceptable to me. Please dont be mislead by the overall high rating of the mouse. I dont think i got unlucky, I see a lot of people who bought this mouse are facing the same problem.

Bought it on a hunch and it’s worth the money. Been playing cs:go and valorant and haven’t had any issue despite it being a wireless mouse.Latency is lowAble to use quickscope and flicks with no issues.One issue faced is with scroll wheel. It’s gotten too sensitive. Even with light pressure it either scrolls or clicks.
S Ravi Theja –
Amazing mouse overall, I love everything about it. Grip feel, ergonomic design, Weight, you name it..Only gripe is that the back of the mouse feels a tad bit heavier than the rest, making it feel more heavier than it actually is. Make no mistake, it still feels very light for the price, you can’t get a much better all round performance than this. You could also watch Linus’ team talk about this in their G305 video, they say the same thing too.Two walk-arounds for this :1. Use an aluminium foil and roll it into a ball, then while using a AAA battery use that ball to connect the mouse and battery(battery’s + end). This will give you atleast 10-13g difference and the back won’t feel as heavy anymore.2. Buy a AAA to AA adapter, and use it with a AAA battery. You’ll get around 8-10g reduction. Or better yet, cut the middle portion of that adapter and just keep the ends intact – this will reduce it by a further 2-3g.It’s a lot to do for just 15g of weight reduction, but trust me, the mouse will feel a whole lot lighter. It makes a HUGE difference when you actually use the “upgraded” mouse instead of just looking at the reduction on paper.

Earlier I was using G502 Hero. Hero is the best mouse I have ever used but why I took this… Becoz Hero weight was little heavy… I was earlier using 1600dpi then came to 1000dpi then down to 800dpi till 800dpi the mouse was awesome but lowering this level was difficult the mouse was heavy and 400dpi like my hand was paining… So Hero is 800dpi and for uper then that is perfect.. So one day I was seaching and found 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse mouse I have heard many things about this mouse.. So I planned to take this mouse. Firstly I was facing problems like… This mouse is not comfortable like g502hero this is not ergonomic mouse.. And the built qulity is really very cheap type. This was the two things I faced.. Now the pros… Seriously this mouse is damn good… Seriously You will never feel that You are playing with wireless mouse.. This mouse works better the wire mouse.. After using this mouse my reflex and my response time is became really good… If you are 400dpi user… I will definitely recommend you.. Any below 800dpi user buy this blindly This mouse is amazing… But If you are higher dpi user then I will recommend you to go with G502 hero.Pro:- This best mouse is the price range.Wireless and Just go for it.Con:- Not ergonomic.Cheap plastic feels. But if you use it… You will become useto it… Thank You…I am really happy after using this mouse…

Prema –
I use a claw grip and I personally think that this mouse is for people who use palm grip. I dont like the way the mouse feels on my hand with these ergonomics. The shape that I like is one where there is a bent on the left side of the mouse allowing the thumb to res there. In this shape, there is no specific space for the thumb to rest like that. My favourite mouse is actually Corsair Harpoon Pro. Check it out and you will see the difference between this and that. Idk if you know concave and convex shapes. Well, this mouse has like a convex shape to it which means the sides are bulging out making it uncomfortable for me and it might not be this uncomfortable for other people. I personally like the concave shape where its bending inwards and this is the best ergonomic shape for your hand. Corsair Harpoon, Razer Deathadder V2, Philips G502 all have the good concave ergonomic shape which this doesnt. I am sure the battery life for this mouse is really good. The build quality is decent and the clicks are louder than I expected so just keep note of that. No RGB, not a dealbreaker but if you need it, then this mouse is not the one for you. There are 2 side buttons and they are definitely helpful. You can customize the dpi and everything else in the Philips G HUB. Well thats it for my review, I might return this mouse. Kinda uncomfortable. Packaging was really good btw. Anyways, make a good decision while buying mouses guys. Cheers!

The lightspeed technology is phenomenal!! Good tracking, low latency, zero acceleration. Only complaints…. Bit small for my large hands, I’m coming from a g402…, The G software is not great to use and it’s a little back heavy. This affected my flicks until i got used to it.

By far the best wirless mouse I’ve ever used. Powerful battery life due to Hero sensor. Its been over a month use and still going rock solid(using 1 AA battery Dura cell). Tracking is precise on point as expected. I’ve used it for CSGO, Witcher, Tomb Raider, Dota2 etc, haven’t faced any issue whatsover.People have little misconceptions befor buying these wireless mices as there has to be a lag while using but tech is coming way too long these days. Wirless sensors these days have no lag and accuracy is eminent. I used to have Rival 110, 105, Kinzu V1, Philips 402 etc and all these either stop working (mouse click issues) or wire get broken at the nodes. Rest assured you will not having any issues while buying this mouse as no wires(duh) and insane battery life.With Philips Hub software if comes with two modes. Endurance mode and Performance mode. Endurance is for general purpose use and Philips claims it to be +9 month, but i am sure it will last even longer. Performance mode is for FPS games and having precise featuring. This mode will last a month or so as claimed by Philips (250 hours exactly) . Using both these modes will last a AA battery for 4-5 months in my opinion (will update you all after 4-5 months again.) Weight distribution is also good as i used to play with 70-80 gm mices but with this one it jumped up to 98 gms. I adapted with it in few hours to be honest.Gamers out there, don’t feel scared while buying a wilress mouse. This is the best one available in this range.

The mouse has a weight tipping towards the back where the battery goes, but in the overall sense all I play valorant, and have G502, I would spend more and get that, but I went for this for it being wireless. Thats the added advantage that it has over the others! You can go for this mouse blindly when you are an amateur or more than a beginner and get used to agility, speed and control of you game. It has a wide variety is of dpi upto 16000.
Somil Arora –
Its good but after few months the wireless stopped working so I prefer everyone to buy the wired not the wireless
Diganta Bora –
Great product
Sugata K –
I am highly impressed with the click sound and pressure. It is perfect for gaming and daily work as well. Scroll wheel has no sound feedback. Philips G Hub software works flawlessly with this and offers a lot of customizations.The only concern should be regarding grip size, it is kind of small, better suited for small to medium hands. Medium to large hands should consider the razer DeathAdder series instead. I have medium hands, and I decided to keep it for it’s brilliant clicks.

I have been using it for past 3 months. Reliable so far, haven’t changed the batteries yet. I use it for CAD. It should have been priced below 2000 or it should have additional buttons. Then this would have been a perfect buy.

I purchased this mouse in Nov last year but after using it for 4 months, it has stopped working. It’s not even 6 months yet.
VedaKun –
very good gaming mouse overall but 1 small issue it has some rattling noise when you shake the mouse now i highly doubt its sensor rattle because i dont feel any extra tracking when i move the mouse fast so its most probably the led or some buttons maybe a cable hitting the plastic bodyEDIT: I JUST FOUND OUT THE RATTLING NOISE WAS FROM THE ON AND OFF SWITCH AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUSE SO IF YOU HOLD IT THEN SHAKE ITS SILENT SO 0 SENSOR RATTLE. Final verdict: A GREAAAAAT MOUSE FOR THE PRICE very lovely just go for it

Context : I have a claw/fingertip grip and I prefer small mice overall.Compared to: G302, G300s, Roccat Pyra, Razer Deathadder essential, Dragonwar thor and leviathan.If you prefer Larger mice, Deathadder takes the cake for me. It is certainly the best for a reason.That being said, if that is too big for you, like me, this mouse is amazing!One point that you might want to consider is it is relatively a heavy mouse, definitely would have liked it to be lighter.I can’t really find a bad point other than that,Amazing sensor,wireless is such a bliss,solid build,one double AA battery lasts 1-1.5 month for me on High performance and i do not turn it off at all (lol).

It’s the good mouse for this price range. More importantly i like it’s range.Can use it from pretty far away.

The mouse came in a damaged box but inside the box was ok so, I opened and started to use it. Been using it for few days and i can literally feel the mouse clicks are too soft and by the looks of it I think it can break in one fall. I am a normal user using this mouse for studies and office work I feel the build quality is bad. Strictly it is not recommended for gamers as my brother played a game with the mouse and he was not happy about the product.
Nipun sarkarNipun sarkar –
Mouse is Good, handy and light weight. In this budget i don’t think other mouse compete in this price segment. After using 1 month its good option for budget buyer only regret is missing rgb.
Surya Karmakar –
Changed from Philips G102 Prodigy and suits me perfectly. Glides smoothly on mouse pad and has excellent accuracy. There is no delay in input and action. Battery life is descent in gaming mode high pooling rate. The back feels heavy which can be resolved by using Energizer Lithium Battery.Only one profile available on board. Default is 1000 HZ pooling and I couldn’t change it. No rechargeable battery included.
Jithin Nair –
Mouse is great but for people with a much bigger palm it isn’t great.

Not very happy with the product design, as it’s feel heavy while using the mouse because of the battery. I would prefer a litter mouse as I work with it for long hours

The performance of the product is more than what I was expecting. Options for switching the DPI right from the mouse itself are awesome. The Philips gaming software is also very handy and useful for customizing the mouse and other Philips wireless devices.

Mouse was working well for 10-11 months but from last month it developed the irritating double click issue. Honestly, it is really annoying that mouse registers double click on a single click in FPS games. Dissappointed over poor reliablility 🙁

First 3 days it works like ur girlfriend.. smooth functioning nd sexxxy toh hold …After that it becomes ur wife, starts showing issues. Mostly double click.For first timer it’s ok . But if u play fps like cod valo csgo apex .. bruhh don’t buy this mouse ..Go for Razer

Everything is good except the weight,Even after adding Li-aa battery it’s still a bit heavy,like 9-10gm. The sensor is top notch,Been using for 3 month in Performance mode (4hrs daily).
Abhishek PR –
Been using this mouse for the past 3 weeks or so. It works well, no lag whatsoever, precision is good and weight after adding the battery cell is also well balanced.
Navin Ps –
Great wireless mouse for this budget range.Easy to manage and change settings using G Hub softwareWould have great if this had RGB on it..
Rajni –
Nice tracking, side buttons a little awkwardly positioned difficult to use, weight is ok.Can’t drag click or double click(minecraft) out of the box, will update if it doesNo rgb(doesn’t really matter)Tip.- it looks big in the pictures but it fits your hand really well.
Sarath Chandra Repaka –
i own both Razer deathadder essential, corsair harpoon, to be honest i was not happy with wired performance and that has interested me to look at Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse mouse.The reviews for this mouse are very positive and the mouse has truly lived upto the expectations i had in my mind.very ergonomic and light MUST BUY!!!Edit after 2 monthsThe mouse abruptly stopped and I tried trouble shooting from my endNow it is a dead purchase I need to connect with Philips about the repair
Abhay Kumar –
This is a really good wireless gaming mouse in this price range. its just a bit heavy but with lighter battery like lithium ion battery it might help decreasing the weight a bit. Its battery life is very long. been more than a month and still its working fine in performance mode. And if you think wireless mouse will have latency problems, i would say its not that much, I got no issues playing CSGO and other fps games in performance mode, plus the freedom you get without any wire connected to the mouse is just priceless. so highly recommend. you would only sacrifice on that RGB lighting but i think the sacrifice is worth it.
Shantanu Sood –
This is mouse is quite an amazing all rounder. It gives you the lightspeed tech of Philips for a low price. The weight on the mouse is quite light, the balance is a little forward heavy with the included batteries, I recommend getting a lithium ion battery as they are lighter and the balance gets quite centred.
Manash Deori –
It’s a great product for the value specially, a little bottom heavy but if you use a AAA batterie with a extender to AA it’s a top tier gaming mouse with much equal weight distribution, from 100 grams to 78 grams to be exact with the battry change
Ashwin –
I bought 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse as a replacement for my g102 mouse, i am replacing it because of the double click issues, but if you ask me if its a total replacement for it, i would say noThe things which are different here is, even though the mouse is price at around 2.3k compared to g102 which is a 1k cheaper, the build quality doesnt match the g102, like the texture of plastic and clicks feels quite differentThe only advantage i would say is that we would get the say latency as a g102 even though it is a wireless mouse and as mentioned the dpi is also higher for 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse(even though i didnt feel much difference)

Good for medium hands better price between @2300 – 2500rs. Paired with Legion y540 extremely great. But side buttons feels cheap and not easy to press.It feels akward shifting from cheap 200rs 10 year mouse to suddenly gaming mouse amd yes it is smaller than my old ones for bigger/medium palm. Feeling is mixed.I felt steelseries 310 would be a great balance between deathadder elite and Philips considering 3k price range.Will update later.

Nice and fast as wired mouse comfortable too. Coming from G400 which I purchased in 2012 started having double click issue from 2020 but it lasted 8 rough years. Click quality is slightly lower than G400 but not much difference. 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse started some spring sound coming from left click already just after 2 weeks of WFH use. I doubt it will last a year. Ill update if it fails. You can hear the sound in the video.

never trust Philips. I am lucky no issue has come up until now. you could always have double click or middle mouse faulty issue so I gave 4 stars. battery backup

At the moment it’s very good but abit back heavy.. Have to use battery convertor an use smaller batter.

I unfortunately only have cons for this product. Please read and be informed before you buy this product.Bought Philips because mx518 was my first ever gaming mouse and the build/quality was impeccable. 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse would be my last mouse ever from Philips.- Cons -1. Left mouse button starts double clicking after about 6 months of use. (My friend bought the same model a month before I did and she is facing the same issue).I used this mouse for office work for the most part in these 6 months, gaming time for the last 6 months is about 540 hours.2. Customer support is ass. The website is deliberately designed to make you “feel” they are helping you. But you will never actually talk to a real person or get any actual help.3. As a gamer, this is a no no. Mouse dies without warning if the battery is low ( That is they way of telling you to change the battery, if you turn it off and on again, it will run for at least another week on the same battery. ) & this happens a LOT4. Uneven weight distribution. Cannot flick in Counter Strike or similar first person games and comfortably pick up the mouse to get back on the mousepad. (This is muscle memory for me, and in 6 months, I could not achieve it with this mouse. Works well with Deathadder and similar products.

Update after 2 years of use- The scroll wheel has become shifted towards the right and it rubs against the right click button. I need to shift it to centre manually by force and it makes a weird noise too and gets stuck in rotation. Did not expect this from such an expensive product!The centre scroll wheel is a bit hard to press and rest the mouse has a great ergonomic design!

Amazing mouse for all FPS game genres (fast paced like quake as well as slow paced like CS GO/PUBG etc). I have owned over 80 gaming mice and I can tell you this is def in the top 5 of all the mice I’ve used. For the price, it’s the best anyone can get. Better than the G Pro Wireless as well as the Viper Ultra IMO.Aiming details:- Can do full palm only if hand size is around 17×8 cm or less. My hands are 18.5×10.5cm but it works fine for me, I use fingertip palm hybrid.- For tracking fast targets 9/10 for me but 10/10 for smaller hands (can be fixed by adding some foam tape on left and right corners at the back of the mouse)-For slow target tracking 10/10 (correct width at fingertips)-For wrist flicks 7.5/10 for me but made it 9.5/10 with tape as mentioned above-For arm flicks (low to medium sensi players) 10/10Note on HERO vs 3366/3360/33xx sensors – In my experience, I feel that I get way more control in any gameplay using HERO despite using 33xx sensor mice for the longest time. The main difference I feel is that at very small/slow movements, the HERO sensor performs more in line with what you expect to happen as compared with 33xx mice. It is especially noticeable with wrist twitch aiming or aiming for small target movements. The 33xx sensor feels more like theres some small/very slight dead zone for aiming when the cursor is at rest and needs to start moving, like a very slight starting problem, but once the cursor moves, it feels much more responsive than the HERO sensor. But I think overall, you’d feel more in control with the HERO since in fps games, in the end it comes down to precision, and responsiveness can be tweaked and compensated with sensitivity. Either way, the difference is very very small and 99.99% of people won’t really notice a difference.Philips has made a brilliant decision by making this mouse.

I believe this is the Asian variant of G305. The best wireless mouse i have used, it feel better in hands than G403 (at least for me). Also its fast and responsive as my G403 wireless.Its having different sensor than G102/G203 which use Hero 6k, i guess its just the DPI can’t confirm, but i can confirm that its much more responsive than G102 from my experience.Highly recommend for Hardcore FPS gaming!Pros:Weight: 98G with batterySensor: Hero 12K which is close to pixart PWM 3366 (200 to 12000 DPI) with 400 in/sec. Consumes less power compared to 3366Accuracy: Super aceturateDesign: pretty much similar to G102/G203 and Gpro (Wired)Battery life: The best in market last for very long time.Comes with Lightspeed dongle. :DDimension: 116x62x38, which is compact and good for small to medium hand users.Cons:Weight: The Distribution is not that great if you lift the mouse often.USB: No usb connection to use as wired connection (prevention from exploding battery?)Build: Plastic but cant complaint for the price.Update: I can see some comments saying their mouse is not working so that the model if flawed. I am using it for 2 years, SO FAR ALL GOOD. I had the click issue with my G403 which is a top mouse. The quality depends on how you use and some factor of your PC, like over voltage, dust collection and static build up.All Philips mouse use omron switches on gaming line up as far as i know.

The product is really good and packaging is really nice, but there was problem with Philips g hub app on windows (the app was not installing at all), the solution for this problem is to download 2018 version of the app and use it and u can download the 2018 version from their website only
Pushkar Singh –
The Scroll wheel jump issue where sometimes the the page goes up when you scroll down, is well known among various Philips mice. I faced the issue in my previous G603 mouse so I got this mouse. But barely after a month I am seeing the issue on this mouse also. If your workflow involves scrolling (like browsing, programming), then the jumpiness of the scroll wheel is going to be a deal breaker. AFAIK, there is no firmware update out for this issue for this mouse.

A very good mice overall, not much weight, good side buttons, but beware if you have big hands, cause it won’t nearly be any comfortable for big hands, also yes, the clicks are too shallow, meaning the buttons press way too easily, can be annoying as they often get clicked my mistake.

It is good in tracking,has lightweight when you add lithium battries.If you dont want the performance to go down make sure you buy rechargable AA battries for the mouse,just charge in the battery and you are good to go.People with big hands might have problem on holding it long.So check the size of mouse and pick the one for your grip style.

This is exactly marks 1 year of me using this mouse. This mouse is same as G102 but wireless and no rbg. Very compact and easy to hold. The problems I faced in starting were problems with the extension cabe for the dongle it made the mouse slow. After 10 months of use i could feel the double clicking on the side buttons. And past 2 days I have been facing double clicking issues. Overall for long run won’t recommend this

Rahul M. –
This mouse with its featureset and the price point should be a no brainer for anyone looking to get a light (not super light) mouse which can daily drive as well as game fludily. However, the cas eisn’t so because of a singular major issue- the left click ends up glitching after anyhwere from 5-6 months to a year. It starts double clicking thereby totally screwing up the ability to daily drive this mouse or even play most games which rely on the left click as a primary action like FPS, TPS etc.You’re better off getting something else in the same price rage or perhaps investing antoher 1000-200 and bumping up to a Philips 500 serie smouse or something from Razer, steel series, corsair, glorious, hperx etc.

While placing an order for this mouse I had high expectations as I had read alot about this mouse and its other models and I am really happy that those expectations were met and more.Pros: Before this mouse I was using cheap 500-800INR mouse which weren’t premium quality but fulfilled my need for gaming. But as soon as I held this mouse it felt premium quality without any doubt. At first price may seem a bit more than it should be but once you have it in your hand its a total worth for money.Mouse is very smooth on any type of mouse pad and it feels like butter. I highly recommend this for FPS games. Since the day I have got this mouse my aim in AimLabs is getting better significantly. You can download Philips software for mouse and set DPI as per your need. There 4 inbuild DPI settings so you can toggle between those DPI settings.Being wireless mouse doesnt make any difference as response time is very small and mouse is very responsive.Cons: This mouse does not have any RGB lighting.Mouse is a bit small for my hand and is not most ergonomically comfortable mouse due to small height. My hand starts paining after couple of hours is I am gaming continuously.Side buttons are closer to my palm more than my thumb so I have adjust a bit to use them with my thumb. Bit annoying while playing playing games because is usually use those buttons.Even though with those cons I recommend this mouse because hand can adjust overtime which would eventually eliminate adjustment issue. I definitely recommend this mouse for gamers.

Its a very nice product however one should go for g305 instead of 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse. Quite a bit over priced as i got for 3300. Moreover keeping aside the price buffer a very nice product for gaming. Easy to use and light weight.

If yr looking for a mouse for fps gaming its not recomended ,this mouse sometimes doesnot register input and stops working for fraction of a second ,if u want to fix this for couple of hours you have turn the mouse on and off a few times,but its shape is comfortable to hold is a bit on the heavy side but u can put smaller battery using aluminum foil

I suggest everyone if there is Philips service centre is located your nearby so this is good for you, if not then just avoid it

The mouse left click button and the right one are very sensitive and easily double clicked at wrong situations if playing,somewhat irritating but can crib that much due to the pricing and description about weight is wrong, mouse is light without the battery and the battery alone weighs 15-20grams

Review after using it for 1 month.Just go for it.If you are worried about the latency and all,let me tell you the latency is same as that of the wired one.(Tested it on several benchmarks).Since,it is wireless,wires will not be an issue anymore.Final Verdict:Just take this mouse,it is bang for the buck.

So I brought the mouse and it was working good for a while but now it isn’t. There are issues coming up, like scroll wheel jump, left click problems, slow reaction time. It also looked comfortable, but it wasn’t so upon usage. This happened after a few months of purchase. It was sad to see all my money go down the drain, as now I have to buy another mouse.Maybe Philips can come up with a subscription model where I can use it before buying? It would be helpful to know what the product actually is

My 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse is working fine, no double click issues, thoguh I had a fair share of trouble w/ my G102 double clicking. I’ve heard mouse double click issue can be fixed if you open and clean mouse switch. Anyway.Had this for 1 year now. I can’t tell difference b/w this and a wired mouse’s input lag (played CSGO, 2k hrs total). Really like the no-RGB clean design tbh, plus size/shape is good for my small hands. Used G-hub software to map macros, aah quality of life improvement. Do give Philips G-hub Macros and mapping a try.Pretty sure would buy again if and when i have to, 11/10 if white version available (pls.pls.pls).Oh yeah one more thing, Philips ‘G’ logo erases off in ~8 months, so it is full black mouse now.

The first thing you’ll notice as soon as you pickup the box it is delivered in is it’s weight, it felt so light, the whole package was lighter than some other mice.Second thing is the texture of the mouse, it’s neither very slippery nor very sticky it’s just perfect and it’s my favorite thing about this mouse, you’ll be able to feel the luxury of holding premium ergonomics.Just got it, yet to test it properly but the first impression is bonkers. I’ll update my review after testing it.

I am a full time gamer. mostly play fps games..Observed with this specific Philips mouse after few months of usage the button starts showing double click issue (clicking once causes double click) and it’s very hard to aim properly in games like Valorant, CS.I have replaced this mouse once in nearby Philips service center but again it is having the double click issue.

Dolfin –
I purposefully bought this mouse for office use because my desk has high-gloss finish and I don’t like to use mouse pad. It works accurately on reflective surface. Also it has subtle black look unlike any other gaming mice hence goes well in office setup.The size fits comfortably in my palm. The grip is comfortable but not the best. I also own Philips Master MX 2S which has the most natural grip but not ambidextrous. Build quality is also decent considering its light weight. The software offers customizing button assignments. Its flawless and intuitive as expected from Philips.My only issue with this is the high-pitch click sound, not only on main buttons but on all buttons!. Mice cheaper than this offer silent or near silent clicks. I am sure even a gamer wouldn’t want such irritating sound. Otherwise its equally good product for office or normal use.

Ordered this mouse almost a year ago and after few moths it started giving issues with the right mouse click button (whicjh I used for Playing MOBA Games) where it was not working properly. Told Philips support but couldn’t find any shops in Bangalore which accepted the Philips products. So replacement and repair was out of questions.The right click button started working again after 4-5 days and kept on working for few months and then same issue occurred and then stopped working again for almost a week and started working again after that. And it is still working.Now the problem arose for the left click just few days ago where the left click was automatically double clicking even if I only clicked once. I tried many troubleshooting guides but none worked and now I am in a place where I am still searching a good wireless gaming mouse under 5K.Philips, honestly, the hell with your support.Rest I would say it is good mouse. Maybe the issue is only with the hardware I got. Maybe I got unlucky. But whatever may be the issue the support didn’t help and in almost a year I feel like my money was wasted.

• Writing this review after 1 month of usage.• This Is the best mouse you can get for this price.• 12000 DPI sensor is extremely precise and mouse has zero acceleration as claimed.• Philips Ghub software is the best software for gaming accessories. Extremely easy to use. All the six buttons on the device are customizable !!• The hump is slightly toward the back which make it very eady to use with palm grip (for best productivity experience) and claw grip (best grip for gaming which most people use). Fingertip grip may not be the best on this but hardly anyone uses that whatsoever.• Slightly above 95 gms which is very lightweight but you can even undercut this weight to below 87 gms by using lithium battery or even lesser (83 gms) with a AAA battery and aluminium foil ball. And battery live is Just amazing.• The gliders below the mouse are very smooth and have no resistance.• Plz like this review if it was of any help to you 😇.

This mouse is just too good….battery lasts more than enough…it is very light weight..thus very comfortable for long gaming sessions..overall great mouse…the only thing missing is rgb. If You Are Looking For A Wireless Mouse Under 3000 INR..This Mouse Is The Best

Just go for it.

It’s a bit on the heavy side and the friction on it is a bit too much. U will need a good mouse pad for this. It’s best if u use a AAA or even AAAA battery on it, that helps reduce weight or play without the top.The mouse disconnects itself sometimes.

Great mouse, but small in size and in three months of usage i am starting to experience left mouse button double clicking issue. I have used g900, g502, g402 before this mouse with all the same problem, double click issue, i am sorry to say goodbye to Philips. Being a semi pro gamer, i am very disappointed in Philips mouse button quality.

I already have Philips m235 wireless mouse which is still working super good after 3 years. So i decided to upgrade my wireless mouse with gaming wireless mouse and I’m glad that i bought this mouse. Very accurate and precise. Very good for gaming, yes it is little bit heavy but not too much. Feel good in hand quite comfortable.Totally satisfied with the purchase.
Debojyoti C. –
Didn’t live up to my expectations from a Philips device, it’s too small to use….looks and feels pretty much the same as a office mouse from Philips. The sensor is decent and tracking is smooth, but the glides/feet are too small and don’t cover the bottom of the mouse optimally, causing scraping, even if you tilt the mouse by a small angle. If you are looking for a wireless kinda-lightweight gaming mouse at a decent price, I would suggest you not to buy this, put in some more money and get the RAZER BASILISK X HYPERSPEED, which at the time of writing this review costs only, 3.5k INR.

A lot of people say, gaming mice are supposed to be wired or they lose sensitivity or this or that, basically there’s no real reason behind the theory.After listening to enough of them, I finally decided to be the rebel and try out the Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse and there has been no going back! It’s lightweight, easy to use(no applications required)(even on Mac), offers amazing precision and has all the modes from the slowest for your design work and ultra speed fast mode for the times when you need it.The battery seems to be doing really good too, I change them like once a month which is great and similar to the other mouse which I was previously using without any of the additional features.

Average Consumer –
For context, I have been playing competitive shooters for over 5 years and 5000+ hours. So some of what I will say below may not matter for casual users but I hope you still find it helpful.This was my third Philips gaming mouse, the previous two being G102s. This mouse is essentially the wireless version of G102, without RGB and with a bit more heft. Once you get used to the mouse, you may not care about the weight difference but it is very apparent when using the other. The size is towards the smaller end and may still work for those with larger hands. The performance is without any complaints and there is no perceivable latency. Overall, when first getting hands on the mouse, you would be a very happy customer. For those conscious about the weight, using a AAA battery does help. The mouse also offers power saving mode but it locks the polling rate to 250Hz. The battery life is okay, but you still need to replace the cell after every 8-10 weeks.The problem starts after a few months of moderate to “heavy” use. Just like with my G102s, this mouse started having double-clicking issues within first 7-8 months of purchase. The mouse is covered with 2 years of warranty and I am yet to find any complaints with the after-sales support (except that in my area I need to wait a week or longer to get a replacement). Also, the body’s grippy feel wears out within the first couple months, but the feet remains intact despite getting wear. Using a good mousepad does not seem to improve the longevity that much.The double-clicking issue has been happening so often that I have started to doubt the quality control of this brand. Even my previous mice started having the issue again even after getting replaced, which really means to me that the company is willingly providing subpar components in their products. Meanwhile, I have owned a generic use Philips wireless mouse (the mini ‘M’ series one) for almost 8 years now and with light use it did not have any issues, despite being much cheaper.Overall, this is a great mouse for those who games occasionally and want something good enough, especially when it costs under 3000. However, if you don’t get bothered by wires, I recommend getting a G102 instead. But for those who plans to use this extensively, I would not recommend to get fooled thrice like I did. I will not be giving this brand another go for sure.

Best Gaming at this price range.
Aravind –
It’s a good gaming mouse with enough accuracy for regular fps gaming. It comes in at around 100g, but you can swap out the AA battery for a AAA battery to make it lighter, almost light as G Pro wireless which is 3 times the price.If you experience stuttering with mouse when receiver is connected to lap/pc use the included usb extender to move it away from the lap/pc to reduce interference.
Chhana Ralte –
This mouse feels great on my hands, the weight is just enough, its sensor is great and, I notice no latency.But, when i put it stationary on my mouse pad, the pointer arrow moves by itself a little. I am not really sure if my product is defective but it cause no problems to my gaming experience. I use it to play valorant and it works really well.tip : Download Philips G HUB to customize your buttons and dpi. You can also put it in endurance mode for the battery to last longer.

Well Philips has always been my first choice for gaming devices, i had keyboard, mouse and now this mouse for gaming. Why i choose Philips is its soo damn long life that even your grandchilren can play on your today’s purchase and it will then maybe lose its click. This mouse is perfectly balance weighted, handy and very satiafying to touch, the base pads are smooth and rollover is damn fast, Dpi management was helpful through Ghub app for windows and i made other 5 dpi intervals for my comfert than stock. my Acer nitro 5 Carbon was feeling alone so i bought this and made Them a couple. Wish them a happy life. 😂👍

The product is AS Advertised. and it does deliver. But it’s fallen short on the lightspeed technology as a whole. The audio skips from time to time, and that’s a hassle when you’re in a competitive environment.Best bet, this is not for those serious gamers, but the product delivers what it says and is a good buy for starters into the non-expensive segment of wireless gaming hardware.
Tushar bhatia –
This is just too good the software makes everything even better you can customise each and every button on it. You can even bind keyboard keys to it and i find it very useful as a gamer. It glides on the mousepad like a dream.

Randomly, the mouse clicks twice when clicking once. Eveything else is great. Good battery, good response. I won’t suggest anyone to buy this at this price.

perfect mouse for FPS gaming
Anubhab Dutta –
This is my first Philips product for gaming. I mainly play fps games like CS GO, VALORANT, Apex Legends etc. This mouse has really impressed me. Its light and run on a single AA battery compared to the Razer Atheris which I have for office use. Philips is really doing a good job in gaming peripherals market. Though I am Razer fan, but Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse is the best in this segment. Hands down!!! The only cons that I found was the Philips Ghub, it doesn’t detect my mouse after re plugging. I find the Razer Synapse more comfortable and easy to use and haven’t faced this kind of issue. I did reach out to the Philips support but to no avail.
Tenzin –
This mouse is quite a change from my previous mouse.The built quality good, manoeuvring is pretty good with multiple DPI settings that can be set on the G-Hub app.It really helped with moving to lower Sens and improving my close range tracking in FPS games. With more practice this mouse is quite decent for FPS games .

My first gaming mouse. And I am happy with the purchase. It has 4 sensitivity modes, perfect for gaming and doing flick shots on high sensitivity. It’s a little on the heavy side, but the sensitivity setting makes up for it. Really accurate and I hit ace with this mouse on Valorant. And my gaming experience has been better after using this. So, recommended.
Aravind –
Its a really good mouse. The hand on feel is great, and it fit perfectly a large hand. Couple of issues i had was the battery life is less(tgey are advertising just 240 hrs and Philips have mice that have 2 year battery life) and the scroll wheel is not a smart one as in Philips m650. Everything else is fine

Divya Akash Dutta –
I have smaller hands so the mouse felt a bit to big in my hands. If you have large or even medium sized hands, the mouse is going to fit perfectly for you.Other than that, the mouse is great. The buttons feel great. The tracking is accurate, in fact, it is so much better than the last mouse I was using that it feels like a breath of fresh air using it.An if you’re wondering about latency, there’s none at all. In the performance/gaming mode, the latency is 1ms. And in the endurance/normal mode, it is 8ms, which you cannot feel.The battery life also is very good. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now and the battery still shows almost full.So all in all, it’s a great mouse and a definite recommendation from me.
Anju Sahani –
Way better than cosmic byte mice…great performance…great sensor…great build quality…nice switches…bit on heavy side but its ok…no double clicking issue found till now…but if it has one can replace its switches with kailh or ttc or omron
David Heisnam –
The latency is as good as wired. I saw in a video somewhere that wireless mouse latency is actually better than wired, so I’m really happy, especially now that there is no cable drag.
Pratyush Chowdhury –
The sensor on this mouse is very precise and provides very good user experience when combined with the Philips G software, been using this mouse for months, truly recommend it for a tight budget!
Arpan –
The product was fantastic it came in a perfectly packed and selaed condition…the mouse is fantastic..it feels like it has no latency …
Joseph Mathew –
This is just a short term review. The mouse has an excellent sensor with high dpi, but more importantly, has a decent 1000hz polling rate. The performance is very good for the price, especially considering that it’s wireless. The battery life is amazing, can easily last a long time. If it runs out, it’s just a AA battery. Weight is acceptably low and overall, it’s a great mouse for the price.

When you press single click it sends double clicks on left as well as right click.As for the mouse you get used to its shape, so they purposefully use lower quality clicks which will malfunction in a year or so no matter the cost; this is so that you have to buy the same product again.What a joke.Must abandon Philips brand from now on.Happened 2nd time now.

PROS:It’s fast, accurate, the 2.4 GHz connection has virtually no delay, the buttons are satisfyingly clicky and very comfortable to use. Also, it’s really cheap. For context, I play Rainbow Six Siege and Destiny 2 primarily.CONS:It is for right handed users, and it is a bit small.I have big hands and I came to this mouse from the g402, which is much larger, but I did not have any trouble adjusting to this one.
siddharth p. –
i have been using this mouse for over a month, till now no issues going, like others say that some time it double click and stuff, but i have not face this problem yet, but after using this for one month, the logo on the mouse got removed / vanished, so the printing quality of the logo was bad, but it doesn’t even matter becz it doesn’t inpact our gameplay, and this mouse is not for the sweaty hands players, overall this is worth money
Shadowrider –
Its an amazing mouse for any task including gaming. The only possible drawback i can think of are the side buttons which are weirdly spaced. But that just takes some getting used to. Otherwise its a great mouse

Worked very well for a year but starts double clicking after a year and there are no repair centers or warranty redemption
Saad Lambe –
I have used the product for over 6 months now and I thought I’d come back with all the issues that I have faced in my daily use.The connection begins to drop as the mouse ages, within 3 months I began having frequent drops and at the end of 5 months, the product stopped working completely. Philips support asked me to do a series of reinstall/troubleshooting, which of course did not help since it was a hardware issue.Keeping aside the fact that the product stopped working so quickly, the construction of it is shoddy too. I am using a cloth mousepad, one of the best- and the feet of the mouse have begun to completely fade out. The DPI and its behavior in game is also spotty, it occasionally switches to on-board memory from software profiles without reason. This is apparently a common issue, as an internet search will confirm.In line with COVID-19, Philips has refused to even talk about a potential replacement. Save yourself the time (and money), and go with a Glorious Model O if you’re in it for gaming or a Corsair offering if you want a best of both worlds mouse.

I’m so glad i switched from zebronics to this, when i was using zebronics my hand literally started hurting after some time of use because of it’s weird shape, and it’s click sometimes got stuck.This one works perfectly without any problems and i can use it without worrying about a wire, battery life is really good, haven’t changed the original battery that came in the box, still more than 60% charge. definitely go for this mouse, best wireless gaming mouse in this budget.Edit on 6 Feb, 2022:Still working without any problems, (added some photos)The only criticism i can think of is that the scroll wheel catches dust easily.
Mikael L Chuaungo –
Its good. One of the lightest wireless gaming mouse. Bought this months ago, still more than 70% battery left on its single AA battery.
Reji Abraham –
Good mouse for the money, get it when its on sale, the mouse feels high quality and the sensor is super good, works on most surfaces, the mouse also has decent battery life (does come with a duracell battery in the box),delivered within 2 days (not prime shipping) also feels super comfortable to hold on (palm grip), there a other competitive mice around this price point and will may or may not be better than the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse. To me the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse stands out from most of them.

Aayush –
At first I wasn’t expecting anything as I ordered it just because it was the cheapest wireless gaming mouse, and it also seemed a bit small for my hand size.As it arrived, I quickly got accustomed to it and I was pretty impressed with the shape. It is best suited for Claw grip or Claw-palm hybrid grip.It might not be as comfortable as ergonomic mice, but you sure will hit those flicks shots more accurately than before.Wireless feels flawless, no delay, and it feels good to have no cable dragging your mouse.Battery life is good too.(Previous mouse: Philips G403Game: CS:GO)
Prantik –
What I expected from Philips, superb performance.Battery usage is very optimal, I’ve been using it every day for a good 4-5 hours for the past month, and haven’t had to change it yet.Tracking is accurate, and the variable DPI has a good range.Clicks feel good, not too hard or soft.
Prathamesh Kulkarni –
Included bttery adds too much weight to the mouse. If you want make the mouse little lightweight change the battery.

The sensor in this mouse is top tier and everything else is great. However within 6 months of purchase, it has developed double click issue on both buttons.Disappointed in the quality of the switches used by Philips, this seems like the same switch used in G102. Will be initiating an RMA

This is the same as G305, just regional naming is different, so if you are looking for reviews online search for G305.After using it for a couple of days, I can confidently tell there is literally no difference between this and a wired mouse. The fit is great and the lenovo g hub lets you customise all kind of things from button mapping to DPI easily. It’s a bit on the heavy side but there are ways to get around that. You can look for G305 mods and do what fits you best.All in all it’s a beast of a mouse.

This mouse has brilliant tracking for gaming, no lag what so ever, weight is good as well just use AAA with adapter to get the weight down.

I have purchased this mouse 2 days back on 7th and the delivery was actually very fast, but the problem is that there is no direct way to add Logtech’s GHub Software for macOS Catalina 10.15.2 till date and as a result I am no able to use the mouse to its fullest potential.Request potential buyers to be aware and keep a watchful eye before buying the same for Mac.For Windows users on the contrary its a breeze to work with this mouse as one can instantly download Philips GHub and use it to its fullest.OVERALLI AM NOT SATISFIED WITH Philips FOR THE POOR AFTER SALES SUPPPORT

In short, its perfect. Its the best value for money mouse. I’ve used quite a few other mouse as well(worst among them was Apple’s Mouse) but this is on another level.

I got this mouse back in May 2021 and it has essentially lived on a desk, used with only my gaming PC. Usage of the mouse has been mostly around 3 hours/day, with some weekends the mouse seeing about 12-14 hours of use for gaming sessions (FPS only).Here we are in January 2022, almost 8 months into the life span of this mouse and the left click has started acting up. while most people get the double click issue, my left click has become sticky, that is, the button doesn’t rise back up once pressed. Its an intermittent problem, but happens frequently enough to completely ruin my K/D ratio in Halo Infinite multiplayer. Its sad to see just how poor the quality of Philips products has become. Going to claim warranty on this and hope that I get a unit that can last longer.

Nikhil Yadav –
For those looking for a good quality gaming mouse with almost all the bells & whistles Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse strikes a good bargain but let me tell you the biggest bain of your existence after buying this mouse.The notorious double click issue.The mouse worked excellently for almost a year for me, and i was in love with for sure but then the double click issue showed up. for those of you who dont know, the double click issue is when you click the mouse once but it registers as two clicks. it is quite an annoying issue and makes your mouse use unbearable and almost impossible to game on, especially for competitive shooters like valorant.The issue per se is due to a manufacturing defect in the omron switches used in the mouse, so only definitive fix is to replace tbe switch or in case of an average consumer get a warranty replacement.And regarding the warranty replacement, Philips support is pretty shady imo. First of all there is no all india shipping, you have to physically contact their support centers which are not extensively present throughout the country as well, only in major cities, to which I live no where near.(closest one being 500 kms away). Then after you reach the center you might have to wait for a replacement if they dont have one in stock which might take from 5 days to a month even. So try your luck their as well. One thing thats good is they acknowledge that their is an issue and dont ask many questions about the mouse use and such & just tick you up for a replacement right away.Conclusion: It is a great mouse on paper that will fulfil all your gaming needs but you have to be lucky in terms of its usage as it might give out on you 2 days in or might even run 2 years without a hitch. So, my advice would be to go for a wired razer deathadder v2 or hell even cheaper mices which you can replace down the line with comfort without feeling bad about your decision. or you can try your luck, your choice.
VedaKun –
very good gaming mouse overall but 1 small issue it has some rattling noise when you shake the mouse now i highly doubt its sensor rattle because i dont feel any extra tracking when i move the mouse fast so its most probably the led or some buttons maybe a cable hitting the plastic bodyEDIT: I JUST FOUND OUT THE RATTLING NOISE WAS FROM THE ON AND OFF SWITCH AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUSE SO IF YOU HOLD IT THEN SHAKE ITS SILENT SO 0 SENSOR RATTLE. Final verdict: A GREAAAAAT MOUSE FOR THE PRICE very lovely just go for it

Initially, I thought this mouse was excellent. Easy setup, very accurate, almost unnoticeable input lag and lightweight.However, close to year from when I bought it, the right mouse button stopped working. However, Philips customer care is good, and they replaced it no questions asked. The new unit was also great initially, but now the left mouse button double clicks with only a single click very often, and the button side button doesn’t work at all.It’s really disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend buying this one just because of how unreliable it is.

This mouse really combines the two words, budget and performance, ergonomically its kinda uncomfortable just because I expected morecoming from a Zowie FK2, but the HERO sensor really impressed me and I can surely say this is one heck of an accurate mouse.
pranav tomar –
Best for the price and great performance
Shiladitya Goswami –
The mouse has an impressive precision and fast response , the only thing that could have been improved is the weight distribution , a lighter weight is preferred .Overall this is a good mouse.

This Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse is a awesome gaming mouse. It comes with the flagship hero sensor with is most accurate for gaming in the price point. More over it’s latency is also really low. No delay at all. Even the gaming experience is smooth. I kinda love the ghub software but yeah the mouse has some cons. It’s weight distribution is kinda bad and heavy on the back side. More over it’s shape isn’t comfortable for many people who’s hands are under 15cm. Although a good mouse in the range

Philips is trash don’t ever think of buying this mouse trust me .Within 8 months of usage my mouse started double clicking I got it replaced .Now my replaced mouse is also having the same problem.Go for Razer instead

Performance of mouse is really good. Built quality good. But its bit heavy after attaching battrey. And the battrey is not rechargable one. The look can be more better.

This is my first entry level gaming mouse. I did a lot of research what mouse should I buy and concluded on this. Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse and G305 are same mouse just named different in Asia. This mouse is super smooth and the hero sensor within it makes it super accurate. The buttons are well designed and well responsive. Philips wireless mice are equally efficient as the wired mouse. The lightspeed feature makes the mouse more responsive and you won’t fee any latency issue. Though it has no RGB or any sort of lighting, still the mouse looks great. Philips after sale service are very good and this mouse comes with a 2 years warranty. I played a few matches with this mouse and its AWESOME. No hesitation, go for it.
Abhinav Thakur –
IT HAS GOT DOUBLE CLICK ISSUES. Just letting the guys know. Started facing the double click issues after about 4-5 months. Haven’t got the time to exchange it but surely before the warranty. Philips’s cheap mouse are really not worth it.
Nagarajan Thirugnanam –
The mouse was very comfortable. I have been using the mouse for abou 3 weeks now and no problems yet. Software and dpi customization was really easy and the overall design of the mouse vas very comfy. I prefer that it doesnt have any rgb lights. Only problem was that the mouse tracks a lot of dust and sweat so you have to clean before every use for most comfort.

This is a great mouse . I was a bit dicey at first cz of the size as this is a small mouse and i have a big hand , coming from a mouse like the G402 was obviously gonna be a big transition but except the ergonomic build everything else is top notch the hero sensor is amazing and the response time is also v good. I wud suggest a hard gaming mouse pad as cloth pads are not suitable for most gaming mouses nowadays. Overall this mouse will fit your needs. It also has a great battery life.
Manu –
So i got the mouse a couple months ago and it has been working fine since, i’ve faced no issues so far, well except the part that the Philips logo is kinda wearing off now, but im sure that most of us who are getting this mouse aren’t getting it for the looks, but for the performance instead, becoz i believe that most of the ppl who are getting this are either serious gamers on a budget, or casual gamers who take things a bit more seriously than others.Ghub works fine, dont listen to ppl crying that notifications pop when they change dpi, JUST DISABLE THE DPI OR TURN THE NOTIFICATOINS OFF DAMMID, OR JUST TURN FOCUS ASSIST MODE ON ON UR PC WHILE GAMING.ghub keeps getting regular updates which is good to know becoz ik that the ppl over at Philips are keeping things in checkthere are a ton of macro key functions which i haven’t even touched becoz i just use this as a gaming primary mouse and i dont stream or somthnokay im done writing this review, its 2 am and its getting late, just buy this if u prefer functionality and performance over looks.oh also, it being wireless is a huge plus and you’ll always find new mouse skates and stickers to customize it easily because logi is a huge brand (if you didnt know that then idk what type of rock you are living under) and almost most online stores have accessories for this mouse, okay thats it im done bei

Been a Philips fan for years , I own two Philips g510s , two Philips g102 and now this , infact it was my good experience with g102 that let me to buy this one , it’s very similar to g102 except for better sensors and of course wireless . If u are someone who enjoyed Philips’s g102 and moving to this model , I would suggest to insert light weight batteries , cause even though Duracell have better performance(extended battery life wise) but it makes mice heavier , u can easily switch to normal ever ready type batteries to lower few grams
aditya raj jain –
Before i say anything else about this mouse , this is the Philips g305 and the Asian variant is called 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse.Philips nailed it with this mouse.Top notch sensor, amazing weight and terrific customer support in India.The difference between this and the Philips g prowould be the size, materials used are superior in g pro, however the sensor is the same on both. But gpro is 10k rs more costly.Hence this is the best mouse right now for value of money.

For 2.5-3k this mouse is a steal.Use it with an Energizer Lithium AAA or a Zinc Air hearing aid battery (P675) to reduce some weight.

Might be a biased review cause I’m a Philips fanboy, but oh boy, this mouse is amazing. A single Duracell AA battery lasts up to 2 months on performance mode. The sensor & the switches, they both are amazing! One single issue I have is whenever you lift the mouse for reposition on the mousepad when you run outta space, while putting it back down the sensor (sometimes) freaks out and moves up or down either way (rarely though) but I guess it’s fine.

I was skeptical of using a wireless mouse for gaming but this one definitely changed my mind. I havent experienced any latency in the few weeks that I’ve been using this mouse. Bought this to free the clutter on my desk. And the added freedom of movement is very rewarding. As suggested in the manual, I use the adapter to keep the reciever close to the mouse and theres no router nearby. Works like a charm.The software is kinda hard to figure out. I still havent understood how to set up profiles for different uses. It does come with a color coded dpi setting feature. All you have to do is press the dpi switch on the mouse till the right colour (the one thats set for your dpi) lights up on the mouse. This comes in handy.I Did not experience any accuracy or latency issues. I mostly play siege and my in game accuracy has definitely improved. Mainly because the movement is much more smooth thanks to the mouse being wireless.For this price, I’m pretty sure its the best wireless mouse you can get your hands on. Might try out the more expensive Philips wireless mice with newer lightspeed tech when I can afford them xD.
MADARA –
It’s perfect for gaming no delay or lag issues but it’s bit weight at the back bcz of battery we can reduce it by replacing it with rechargeable battery over all its the best budget mouse ever
Abhilash Kumar –
The weight distribution with the stock battery is poor tbh. because of the weight of battery itself.But ONCE you put Lithium Rechargeable AA batteries… OMG This jumps in the premium category of mouses. Comparable to Philips Gpro wireless mouse.The weight of G pro wireless = 81gweight of 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse with Li battery = 85gweight of 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse without li battery= 98g (poor weight distribution)
Monil Sunil Dave –
Okay so I’ve previously used G102. This has the same form factor as the 102. I have a finger tip grip and medium sized palm. This mouse fits comfortably in my hands. You need to get used to the weight of the battery if you’re coming from a g102 like me. It’ll take 3 4 days and then you will never feel the weight.About the battery life. I started using the mouse since 06th Jan, 2020. It has been 6 months and the battery which came with the mouse is still giving the mouse the power it needs.It has the hero sensor which is currently the best you can get.In conclusion, go for it.
Rahul Gupta –
the mouse is perfect if you have a claw grip , palm will do too if you don’t have big palms.The weight is little Concentratred towards back because of the battery but you can reduce weight just by re buying new cells of energizer its light weight compare to duracells

The hero sensor in this mouse feels a bit different from theone in G402. A bit less accurate, other than that the mouse performs well. It comes down to the shape, if this shape fits your hand then it is a good mouse for you. Another point is that it is back heavy, and you will really feel it, I replaced the AA battery with AAA , that made is the weight balance much better. Overall a good mouse for quality that it provides. I do not think there is any other wireless mouse better than this one at this price range.
Shubham KunduShubham Kundu –
Amazing mouse , battery life seems decent , give my setup a clean look. You should watch the review by Linus Tech Tips on this mouse , in America this product is sold by name G 305 , so don’t get confused on that.

Best in budget wireless gaming mice. Though click may malfunction after long term use, but thenevery thing has certain lifespan. You can always replace micro click button with little bit of tech knowledge and tools.
Sankar –
Been using for 6 months. Average 2 – 2.30 hours FPS gaming per day, changed battery only twice.Sensor – awesomeNo click issue whatsoever, glides accross rubber pad no friction.Weight was a lil bit issue, what I did was change the AA to AAA with a converter (online pricy local cheap). It went from 99 grams to 76 grams, huge difference for me as low sense user.

Never buying Philips mouse again, Same double click issue as was in g102.
soham –
if you are new in FPS games and you just wannaget start with a wireless mouse, then this is the one you should go for around 2700rs, default it’s weight around 97g with a AA duracell battery really fine for competitive gaming not to heavy, but you want lite then buy a AAA battery and a plastic adapter sleeve total mouse weight will be around 85-87g, another mouse i will recommend ie razer orochi this one is 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse killr but for some people size matters it’s really little smaller side, but if have the budget then go for that instead 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse, if someday Razer comes with a wireless version of the viper mini then that will be the king for sure, really if you don’t mind wired mouse do check the viper mini
Shailesh Hembrom –
The mouse is very light and ergonomic, even for southpaws. The latency for gaming is good, no lag noted whatsoever. The material, the buttons and scroll wheel are of very good quality, precisely engineered and work very well, for gaming as well as for productive work. The battery life is excellent. Can go months on moderate usage. Very good package overall for the price.
Anamitra S.Anamitra S. –
Great mouse , Great ergonomics for small – medium hands .Don’t worry about HERO 12K sensor. It’s accurate. Great for competitive shooter.Refer RocketJumpNinja for in-depth guide about mouse size and grip.Tip : You can use a aluminum foil spacer with a AAA battery or a AAA to AA battery adapter to reduce the weight below 90g.
Magnus Chase –
I had a G102 and after that mouse started double clicking, I went ahead and bought this. I was hoping I won’t have the same issue with this. But in just 2 months, the mouse started to double click. In a week it was so bad that every click was a double click.There is absolutely no point in hoping that you won’t run into the same issue and that you’ll get lucky. The mouse WILL start double clicking randomly. There’s better options in this price range. Ask yourself if you really need a wireless gaming mouse ( which doesn’t make sense anyway in this price range ) .I’ve lived with the anxiety of a random double click accidentally closing an important window / deleting a file for a week now. Do yourself a favor and avoid this.

Another great product from Philips and works great with all the settings available. Only thing I guess could have been better is generically design rather than something like G502. But at this price point the product delivers more than it promises.
Himanshu –
I’ve been using this mouse for 6 months now, and so far it has far exceeded my expectations. The sensor is easily one of the best in the market. It supports 1000hz polling rate and is VERY accurate. minute inputs are registered enabling micro movements. Buttons are soft and easily clickable- not tactile. I like it, but it boils down to personal preference.The build however, is not the greatest. Its sturdy enough, but I don’t feel confident enough to drop it.The weight is pretty light for a battery powered mouse, but heavier than a wired one.overall 4/5 stars for the amazing sensor and okay build quality
Mohit soni –
I think if your budget is around 2500 then just go for this, comes with the Philips g hub software support, for your battery to last long easily switch between endurance and performance mode, 1ms response time, and feel really good. Use this with mouse pad if you use this without one like on a table then it might feel a Little heavy on the back side but that can also be solved with lithium ion AAA battery and aluminium foil ball
TejashwaTejashwa –
This mouse is good for gaming and good to hold.This mouse feels good and the response of the mouse is great.I played many games like CSGO and Valirant and its easy to do flick shots.And in this price range there are not many wireless mouse. Therefore, you can definitely go with this mouse

Almost 4 months of use and i am ready to write a review about this product.The Philips g305 is truly an amazing mouse. I was skeptical at first about it being as fast as a wired mouse, but i was surprised, it doesn’t feel any different than using a wired mouse.The best part about the mouse is the customization, All 6 buttons are programmable, which is nice for different profiles i use, and as stock, it weights about 99 grams. But i use a AAA battery instead of a AA, and it truly made a difference, used to have a g100s which weighed about 70 grams, and the switch was very easy considering it is 76 grams using the AAA battery.The HERO Sensor is amazing, it was a game changing experience from my previous mouse (G100s), I hit more shots than i previously would because the sensor is way more accurate.Overall, It is a great wireless mouse if you are looking for a cheap, almost no compromise wireless gaming mouse.

Pro1. looks and feels great in hand.2. not a single issue so far3. been using it regularly almost for a year and still works just fine.4. the DPI button is very handy for designers for fine detailing.5. two buttons on the side, but i dont use them. Could be very useful.Cons1. Not the fancy looking mouse if you are that kinda gamer who wants lights in even their sandwich.2. wish it had infinite scroll at this price. would have been perfect.3. after one year it still feels great to use.(not a con i know, just buy it)

Small, light, CRAZY GOOD SENSOR, no input lag, no delay, soft clicks so will have to get used to unintentionally clicking them but thats with all Philips mice. Worth it.
Deepak Mohan –
Within 1 year, the left button started malfunctioning, a single click will register as double click. Effectively the mouse becomes unusable. For a mouse of this price, this is not acceptable. The problem with this mouse is due to the switches used. Since it was within warranty period, I got the mouse replaced. Don’t know how long it will last this time.This is a common issue (not sure whether it’s for only the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse or all Philips mouses). I would suggest looking for another mouse.I have seen people soldering different switches to solve this problem. But that is not an option for most people.So see other option before spending your money on this mouse.
Paul James Kallumkal –
Does everything you need. Smooth, fast wireless.Bit back heavy, but can be solved with a lithium batteryIdeal for claw grip or medium/larger hands since the mouse is a bit tall

Super Inventor –
Its all Worth it!!The improvement you get from this mouse over ordinary cheap ones is massive, plus there is zero lag, with wireless input its a big deal, best investment ever made in a good mouse. Its not fancy but it gets the work done.with high refresh rates screen like 144hz and above youll notice big difference, the accuracy and control you feel is incredible, the overall experience beats a lot of expensive mouse too!
Rishabh Ankit Singh Rawat –
It has the best sensor I have ever used and is light but it started hurting my wrist a lot due to it being small and shaped like an egg. Would love to continue using it but have to return it for this reason. So yeah if your wrist is weakened from years of games I’d recommend a different mouse.
Lalthanliana –
you have to remove it from lower left near the battery slot and plug it into the extender thingy, searched for it for a long time . And you need a separate battery charger, no inbuilt charging.
Sunil Azad Seauta –
The mouse is great if you are looking only for gaming, but for productivity and regular use, it is not good. The design is not ergonomic, which completely ruins the mouse experience as you start to feel more pressure on your hands and muscles get tight.It may suit someone, but definitely not suited for me.Had to return it, otherwise a great mouse.
Prasun D.Prasun D. –
A dn fine mouse a beast can reach 1000hz polling rate in performance mode and in endurance mode its set to 250hz. And for my purposes of daily usage and gaming 1600 dpi is fine. Has in built memory and great power saving. G hub software is also great. Ergonomic is super fine. Weight is light but aa battery make it a smidge bit heavier but you get used to it . Range and connection strength is super as well!! Love the mouse.Philips mice face the double click issue. Mine is too new to comment. Not sure if mine will face the same!!

This is a very good mouse for its price maybe even the best wireless mouse you can get. But the thing is I have been using this mouse for 3 months now and it has started double clicking. Philips should address this issue. Almost all the mice from Philips double click after a while.For me double clicking is the only issue and if it can be resolved then it is the best wireless mouse in this price range.
PersianPix –
Hey guysI bought this on 9th October 2020 and now after 8 months, I have to write this so you know what happened!I should mention I did NOT move it around and never hit to ground or something. It was only on my desk and I used it for occasional gaming and also video editing.It’s a good mouse and I love it but a couple of months ago, the right click started acting up and when you hold it, it was disconnecting and re-connecting again.And now, the left click is doing the same. Can’t hold a click and keeps disconnecting and reconnecting and makes the drag and drops a nightmare.One more thing is the app. It’s good, BUT sometimes the DPI doesn’t work and you need to close the app from the task manager and re-open it to fix the problem.If you are ok with this after a few months, then go for it. It’s an amazing mouse for gaming and daily use with good battery saving.But I think I’m going for MX3 this time and give it a shot.

This is pretty much my endgame mouse until I upgrade to the g pro wireless in a few years.Its nice and ergonomic fits well.Build is ok definitely not bad but its decent dont think it can take falls tho. Buttons are nice and clickly scroll wheel is meh but not deal breakingIts accurate af like boy pixel perfect accuracy and the battery life is just amazing its been like a month since my purchase and I have never turned off the mouse (endurance mode) I work for around 15+ hours on PC and my battery gauge still is full.I have 500+ hours in csgo and this mouse really made a day night difference from my circle mouse getting those heads effortlessly now. Anyways pics included great mouse 10/10 would recommend.Hit helpful 🙂

The mouse works fine BUT the feel is cheap.Due to the battery, all the weight of the mouse is felt at the back which makes us need some time to get used to. Even if we get used to it, it still feels wierd to use.Mouse clicks happen at a slight touch and I’m always accidentally right clicking. Not sure if that is due to me being used to a mouse with a harder button press.The Philips G Hub (free software online) is awesome to help control the dpi and change the button registers.The G logo on the mouse is not as bright as the pictures. It’s more of a dull silver colour.

For a bit of history I have owned a razer mamba and a Philips g203 before. This mouse is essentially just the g102/g203 but it is wireless and a great one at that. The scroll wheel is much better on the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse/g305 and and the side buttons are a bit more tactile but they seem to have a bit more travel compared to the g203. But where this product shines is the wireless I haven’t noticed any lag whatsoever on this mouse compared to my wired g203. This is the best wireless mouse i have every used and i have prefer it compared to the Philips g pro too because it is much smaller and fits a bit easier and its a lot cheaper at only 3000 rupees(50 USD) compared to the g pro going for 10000 rupees (150 USD). The only problem that I have with this mouse is the Philips g pro software, the software is clunky and has loads of bugs and the sides are bit curved outward so it’s a bit hard to lift it but I got used to it.With the double A battery it comes with it weighs in at 98 grams but I put in a lithium ion AA and the weight dropped down to 87 grams which comes close to the g pro which is crazy and I the option of changing the battery acts like a weight add too if you are used to heavier mice. The battery life is also very long thanks to the new hero sensor and you won’t need to change it for like 2 years if you use it in endurance mode with a lithium ion battery and with performance mode you should get around 500 hours with a lithium ion battery while normal double AA should be half that battery life. In conclusion, I highly recommend this and honestly wireless just changes everything you don’t have to route that annoying cable all the time.

Its great for gaming, in 1000hz polling rate, 1200dpi is the best setting for shooter games. Also battery life is really good, used for 1 month and the included battery is still going. But the range of wireless dongle is an issue, which is really low, it should be within 20cm from the mouse to work properly.

They say this mouse is meant for a medium to small hand, I’ve got a big hand and it’s still perfect, a trick I’ve learnt to reduce back heavy weight is use a AAA battery with an rolled up aluminium ball to fill the tiny gap, super lightweight, it’s the best mouse in terms of wireless and affordability

I have played (tested) many games using this mouse. There was no lag.. even during pubg or middle Earth series.. Very comfortable in hand. I was in 8000dpi, which was okay.. then i went up to 10000 which i was not able to handle.. may be i need to get used to it.. i would recommend 6k-8k dpi…. U can customise everything using Philips G Hub software. Add many dpi points or change the button action etc.I will update if i find any issues in future

But a great mouse overall. I don’t usually game but I found this mouse incredibly useful for the extra buttons and superb wireless performance. If you are an office user, this mouse may definitely help with productivity especially for the price.And that’s not mentioning the battery life. I’ve been using this mouse for the past three months with the included battery and the battery indicator still shows full bars given with the virtually no input lag through the wireless.The sensor is of top quality as well. No matter how fast you try to flick you won’t be able to spin out.

Well, I bought this mouse because I went everything wireless from headphones to all forms of input keyboard, mouse and Gamepad.Only downside is the mouse is not rechargeable. And of course if you keep your mouse on High performance 1000Hz (1 ms) expect battery life to be about a month or so….in terms of performance its awesome works like a wired mouse. Solid.

The Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse is a fantastic all rounder, its ergonomics are fantastic, its light and works on all surfaces (even glass)The only improvement i would suggest is the build quality. while its not bad, its all plastic which makes the mouse feel less premium and makes me a bit hesitant on how long it will last.

Sumant Kalmegh –
I am the least interested person when it comes to wireless in general. However, Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse, this very piece has made me feel completely different. I don’t do a ton with it but what I do is exactly precise. I need one profile and that’s it. It is far more accurate than my gaming wired mice since they added that cable jerk at times where I’d completely miss my aim amongst other things. I got this for these things:1) No cable lag.2) Light weight. (My last mouse was a bit too heavy and was giving up)3) Accuracy.If you want the cons, they are gonna be hypothetical since they aren’t exactly cons for me:1) Battery may run out.2) You could still misplace the wireless Dongle.3) You could misplace and forget the mouse.4) The mouse click is so light that you may click too fast too many times without realising.5) Low profile grip. As much as people love it, some can maybe not get used to it. I like the look of the mouse because it doesn’t look like a gaming mouse and is quite small enough to move around the mouse pad.
Sumeet Das –
The mouse feels great and it didn’t take me much time to adjust to. Weight distribution is not that great due to the large AA cell but if you can be creative you can fit in a AAA instead with some aluminium foil, try it and you’ll find the worth of the money you spent.

While I use an MX Master 3 mouse for work, this is what I use for gaming. It’s so fast, responsive and really light, and the design is simple and comfortable. I’ve recently been having connectivity issues on Windows with my MX Master, but this mouse has been a buttery-smooth experience for me (so far).

The sensor is great with performance like a wired mouse. But I hate the switches, they feel cheap like 200rs unbranded mouse.I bought this to replace my HyperX pulsefire raid. But looks like I am going to stick with my hyperx for now.

As a long term user, 2+ years,It started showing problems after 1.5 years with clicking, For reference I am a heavy user with daily 6-7 hrs usage. When playing games, it used to misbehave with click registry as well as scroll wheel. Clicks were not registered and I lost many games due to that xD. Philips Mouse have been my go to option since the last 5 years but they have not been durable. Otherwise Fabulous in any other aspect.

I have been using Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse (G305 in some countries), since late December 2018. I must say, I’m not disappointed. The buttons are clicky, tactile and responsive; it is not a silent mouse but I like the noise of it. The moment you use it, you notice the difference. It is kind of on the heavier side, something many people have complained about in my office when they use it but it’s as good as a premium wired mouse, if not better.Even though, this is a gaming mouse. I use it mostly for my Graphic Designing projects. Please use this mouse in conjunction with the Philips Gaming Software, to improve its functionality. The software gives you the freedom to assign more functions to different buttons, gives you battery level indication and much more.

best budget wireless mouse in the budget, and the software provides more amount of macros and customisation of buttons and keys on the mouse and get the best out of the mouse; if you want to know more about the mouse’s software, you have YT tutorials to help cope up with the software

Its a good mouse but after 2 years it has started to have the double click issue. I am moving away from Philips for now.

Smooth and no issues while connecting and using the mouse with my HP laptop. It’s very light too. It’s perfect for gaming. It feels a bit small for my hands though.
gaurav galande –
Fantastic mouse!! Nothing beats the customisation abilities of Ghub the supported software for extra functionalityIts a perfect item for any one looking to buy a good pocket friendly gaming/everyday use mouse.Your mileage on ergonomics may vary because everyone can have a different “need” in terms of the designAs for my case, It feels perfect for me!!

Whenever I shake the mouse , there is a sound like loose connection of part from day 1 ( I think manufacture defect. But mouse working fine) . overall great mouse.

I have never owned a gaming mouse before this. I used to get those sleek-looking HP mice because they were compact and looked kinda good. But when it was time to get a new one, I figured I’ll check out a gaming mouse this time.I got the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse even though I was not used to paying so much for a mouse (the other options seemed even more expensive anyhow). And what a lovely gadget it is! It is the right weight, and the form fills the palm of your hand. It feels good. Has a matte finish. And I absolutely love switching between different dpi settings. Comes in handy when working with screens of different resolutions. Has just enough buttons. I would not ask for more than 6. Glad about the purchase.Cons — I really wish the G on top glowed.
Karan Pratap Singh –
First of all, the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse and G305 are the same mouse. They are just branded differently in the Asian market for some reason.Don’t use the included AA battery, instead get a rechargeable AAA battery and use aluminium foil ball to fit it. That hack brings down the overall weight of the mouse from 97 to 87 gm.Great shape and feel and size. All the buttons are very responsive. No lag at all.Watch Rocket Jump Ninja’s latest Youtube mouse size guide video to see if this size is right for you!

Terrible mouse feet. Comes off easily. And the most annoying problem is the DOUBLE CLICK issue. Moreover, the right click button fails after a year, not registering.. requires a hard or double press to actually work. This may seem like a pretty good mouse for few months.. you’ll only suffer like me in the long run. Or if you could buy this for like every 6 months or so, i guess this is a pretty good mouse.. don’t expect it to last long😡

Amazing mouse for all FPS game genres (fast paced like quake as well as slow paced like CS GO/PUBG etc). I have owned over 80 gaming mice and I can tell you this is def in the top 5 of all the mice I’ve used. For the price, it’s the best anyone can get. Better than the G Pro Wireless as well as the Viper Ultra IMO.Aiming details:- Can do full palm only if hand size is around 17×8 cm or less. My hands are 18.5×10.5cm but it works fine for me, I use fingertip palm hybrid.- For tracking fast targets 9/10 for me but 10/10 for smaller hands (can be fixed by adding some foam tape on left and right corners at the back of the mouse)-For slow target tracking 10/10 (correct width at fingertips)-For wrist flicks 7.5/10 for me but made it 9.5/10 with tape as mentioned above-For arm flicks (low to medium sensi players) 10/10Note on HERO vs 3366/3360/33xx sensors – In my experience, I feel that I get way more control in any gameplay using HERO despite using 33xx sensor mice for the longest time. The main difference I feel is that at very small/slow movements, the HERO sensor performs more in line with what you expect to happen as compared with 33xx mice. It is especially noticeable with wrist twitch aiming or aiming for small target movements. The 33xx sensor feels more like theres some small/very slight dead zone for aiming when the cursor is at rest and needs to start moving, like a very slight starting problem, but once the cursor moves, it feels much more responsive than the HERO sensor. But I think overall, you’d feel more in control with the HERO since in fps games, in the end it comes down to precision, and responsiveness can be tweaked and compensated with sensitivity. Either way, the difference is very very small and 99.99% of people won’t really notice a difference.Philips has made a brilliant decision by making this mouse.

This mouse changed my computer experience altogether. I could accurately play competitive games and the mouse just fits perfectly in my hand. Also its very understated and simple to look at which for me adds to the feel of my computer setup.

Decent lightweight ambidextrous mouse for fingertip/claw grips.
Sayak S.Sayak S. –
Feels great on my small hands . I use a hybrid palm-ish grip. Might be hard to use for people with big hands.The accuracy is just awesome. It doesn’t lag at all. If it does lag , just use that extender thingy and get the reciever a bit close. Works like a charm .The clicks are tactile enough , I have no issues with them. But they are light so you have to be a bit careful so that you don’t double-click mistakenly.Bought it on June 19th I think and the battery is still running at 80%. I have played 250+ hours on Hi settings ; so the battery is a beast. It’s s bit heavy and you can achieve <90grams by using AAA Li-ion batteries with adapters.If you are looking for a mouse under 3.5k ; then this is one of the best.

Trash mouse, not worth it in a year it got double click issue
PratikPratik –
I am a competitive FPS player and i achieved immortal 2 in valorant , diamond 2 in R6 & 106k gridshot scores with this mouse. The mouse feet last for 2 years on speed surface and 1 year on control surface mousepad. The battery life i got was 1 month with turning the mouse off at night. the grip is grt on mouse but if you have sweaty hands then it might cause fatigue. The scroll wheel leaves a lot to desire coming from the G502 in the past but gets the job done for gaming, it will get dirty over time if not taken proper care of. The 1 problem which i have had with 2 units of this mouse myself and my friends with their units is of battery getting loose over time but this can be solved by using some object to get more pressure on inside foam. no complaints from the sensor, the clicks are hard in the beginning but get softer over usage and the newer units don’t have double clicking issues as often as the older units. If you are looking for a budget razour viper or gpro then this should be your number 1 option ahead of razour orichi V2. i used this mouse at 400 dpi from 2019-2021 with 2 units before switching to gprox. i hoped this review helps.

Its been 2 months since i bought this product, so far so good… No issues with battery or conmectivity. Definitely helps you in games like valorant and csgo. No latency,long battery life (the one they gave), ergonomic and simple but appropriate software. But if you are gonna buy it only for gaming i would suggest you to buy wired mouse because there are no risks involved in it. (Regarding latency and connectivity issues).
Vinayak –
I’ve been using this product for almost 3 months now. The Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse mouse is a great wireless mouse which has a decent amount of features and very good ergonomics for a gaming mouse.I’ve earlier used gaming mice such as the Philips G300s. I was looking for a good mouse which combined the DPI settings of a gaming mouse with wireless functionality. I wasn’t too worried about the possible loss in accuracy(wireless over wired) when gaming as I’m more of a casual gamer.Pros:- Great inhand feel. This is a very comfortable mouse to hold.- Nice design. The design doesn’t scream “gaming mouse”. It’s a lot more subtle and I prefer that.- Standard gaming features such as DPI selection and 2 additional buttons which can be mapped to anything- Very responsive and great experience navigating a computer using this mouse- Battery seems to be great as I haven’t needed to replace the AA battery yet( I don’t normally switch off the mouse when not in use as well)- The Philips G Hub Software gives quite a bit of options to change with this mouse.- Have done a few casual gaming sessions , playing FPS games. I can’t give a very in-depth opinion on whether the mouse accuracy is as good as wired mouse for gaming but from my current experience the mouse seems very responsive and I haven’t had an issue with any lag or discomfort due to it being a wireless mouse.- Pricing is decent. There aren’t that many popular branded options for wireless gaming mice at this price.Cons:- Only 2 additional buttons. Not a huge issue for me but the other wired options do provide more buttons.No other cons yet , but will need to see on the durability and the battery after some more time.Overall it’s a great wireless mouse for someone like me who is a casual gamer and prefers the wireless experience for daily use these kind’s of mice give.

The media could not be loaded.
I had the same mouse but wired version. It was really good but I hate to have wire lying around. So when I saw this, I gave my other mouse to my brother and got this one for myself.Been using it for more than 8 months and it’s been really good.- The buttons feels tactile. Solid build.- I felt comfortable holding the mouse. Ergonomic design.- I couldn’t notice any latency. And it was very accurate.- I was intensively gaming for the first 6 months and had to change the battery twice. For casual gaming the battery would probably last for an year.- There are 4 dpi settings and I could be versatile with it in changing scenarios.- I haven’t used any other wireless gaming mouse, so I cannot compare how good/bad it is to another one.For an average gamer like myself, this mouse does very well.

This is an excellent mouse. My only complaint is distribution of weight on the mouse is not even, which, can be solved by some homemade solutions such as using AAA batteries with more adjustments to it which can be a drag. Otherwise, this is an excellent excellent mouse. Loved it.

If you are looking a bt mouse for gaming this isn’t one, not v ergonomic and its response time is very slow, also its way to small and while you move it it feels v harsh to the surface, not meant for gaming at all, if you want this for general use then you might go for it, overall it isnt worth it, I can’t even return it but replace it w the same trashy mouse.

I bought this mouse on 11june, 2021 and I am posting this review on 26 june, 2022 so a little over a year.The mouse is amazing in every aspect ( good battery life, light weight, virtually no input lag, and more…), but as some other reviews also mentioned, the switches are sub-par at best, after one year of continuous use the right mouse-button just stopped working one day for no reason(tried on different devices to make sure it was the mouse). My recommendation is to buy this mouse knowing that you might have to get a new one in a year or so. Other than that its a good mouse its just the buttons that might cause issues.Update: I guess violence is sometimes the answer. I just smacked it a little and the button started working, increasing 3 stars to 4 stars now lmao.

Exactly what the title reads. It’s an overall good mouse for 1-1.5 years. After which it develops an annoying double click or ghost click issue. Rendering the mouse absolutely useless for precision games.

An almost perfect mice if you can see past one fatal flaw.I first bought this mouse three years ago and had to get a warranty replacement one year into its lifespan because of the double click issue. The replacement mouse worked fine for the next 1.5 years but then started having the same issue. Now I’m considering getting a mouse from a different company altogether. Philips has this persistent problem in all their mice models. I have owned a few of them and every single one develops this issue just a few months in. They just can’t seem to fix it. Their mice are amazing when they “work”

I play games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019, Dota 2 and CS:GO. The mouse provides excellent latency (>10 ms) and is also very ergonomic to hold in the hand even though the design is not ambidextrous. I recommend using a Duracell for this mouse as it lasts up to 3 months. I don’t use the side buttons for anything related to gaming, but it shows its usefullness when using softwares like Fusion 360, SolidWorks or other CAD software. The scroll wheel is particularly good and smooth. Overall, the best wireless mouse I’ve used. I purchased some cheap ones before but they all died within 2-3 months or some odd problem started happening. In Philips 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse’s case, I dropped it almost 25-30 times since I got it and it has been performing as well as the day I bought it.

Tejas –
Pros: great smoothness, accuracy, and optimal weight. Also has a speed control button with four modes.Cons: no way to figure out how to program the two side buttons. That’s all. Actually minor.Highly recommended. Although I don’t use it for gaming. My office work needs mouse to be precise and reliable. Good investment.
Manit Verma –
When plam gripping, the mouse gets uncomfortable really quickly. That’s my only concern. Hardware and software are great.
Ishan Mishra –
Amazing product. Very durable and compact mouse for gaming. It is a Philips mouse.. so, we can expect it to be amazing as Philips has one of the best sensors for gaming mouse. Battery life is also amazing. Only regret is no RGB. I wish it had RGB. But overall an amazing Mouse and everyone should go for it.
PS –
The mouse itself is quite good. But mine stopped working just after 10 months of use. I gave it to Philips service center in Delhi, and now it has been about 5 weeks and they still haven’t replaced it.I have owned several Dell mice in the past, and their replacement time was always within 5 days. Philips’s service is poor compared to it.

latency won’t be a problem, just find out if it is a good size for your hands since it is quite small.pro tip- use lithium ion aaa battery with a converter to make just as light as g pro wireless
Divyanshu Kandpal –

Placeholder –
Top notch quality as expected from Philips. Shape is so much comfortable like it’s custom made for your hand. There’s a catch in weight balancing, you can remove cover to loose 7g. you can use AAA battery instead of AA to loose 13g (by using tin foil) . Making the weight under 80g. Less weight less strain on your wrist for those longer gaming sessions.

April 2021 update:I’ve been using this mouse for a while now, using AAA batteries, which makes it extremely light. One issue I’d faced was unintentional double clicking from the left mouse button. This issue comes and goes, and my research shows that it’s a very common issue with this model, and Philips has not acknowledged it or provided a proper fix. As a result, its difficult for me to recommend this mouse.Original review follows:This model is more commonly known as the G305 in Western markets, and seems to be identical to it. It’s got the same top-notch Hero sensor as Philips’s most expensive mice, which tests show is just as good as any wired gaming mouse. I bought this mouse to replace a Redragon Shark, which I felt was tracking poorly. Granted, it cost about half of what this did, but it seems like that was a case of “you get what you pay for”.The biggest concern I had purchasing the mouse was its size, but it turns out that I needn’t have worried. I have relatively large hands, but since I use a claw grip, this works perfectly fine, and is quite comfortable. It’s noticeably lighter than the Redragon Shark, since this uses 1 AA instead of 2. I believe it can get even lighter if used with a AAA battery (with some kind of adapter).Tracking feels extremely smooth, with its 1000Hz polling rate. Philips’s G-Hub software is well-designed and offers a lot of customizability.Overall, this feels like an excellent choice for gamers – as long as you’re using a claw grip, or have small-to-medium sized hands (palm grip).

the only mouse that is similar to the G Pro X, which unfortunately isn’t available in our country. lightweight and haven’t had any trouble with the clicking issues many have reported. i even have the G 502 hero, but i prefer this mouse simply because its wireless and feels pretty good. highly recommended if its in your budget.

Same size as the g90 & g100s (those mice were gold!), so ergonomics are great. Accuracy seems great as well.The only issue is the quality. 3 months of playing apex legends and left click, mouse wheel click and right click are double clicking. Wouldn’t recommend any Philips product for gaming. I have G413 keyboard and the plastic feels soft &cheap and the keys come off easily.

Vandana kale –
Great mouse for a tight budget even today for Asian market. The sensor is great. To reduce weight of the mouse you can use AAA battery with foil paper rolled to fill the gap in the battery housing. Do not use the battery provided in the box if you will use it for Gaming. The G305 in EU/NA has Hero16k sensor, I hope they reboot the sensor for 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse too.Quality wise, it’s pretty durable for normal use and no issues so far. No double clicks, scroll skips, etc.

It’d been almost 5 months I’ve had this mouse and I never regretted buying it. I have pretty big hands so at first I had issues with my palm placement cause I was using pretty large sized mouse before this. But overall if you have medium or small size, you are totally good to go from day one. About battery, the mouse itself came with a Duracell OEM battery which last for almost 4 months may be some more days than 4 months. A simple Battery change is good for it. The DPI range is totally abnormal, having a dual monitor setup I set my DPI around 6-8K which is totally fine. The user experience is totally awesome with the Philips G HUB app and it is easy to configure the mouse(or any Philips product). I didn’t notice any latency issues with this mouse(the hero sensor is just a beast). Ofc it won’t be a Philips wireless without a scroll wheel issue. I didn’t had any problem until now but the scroll wheel feels sturdy and not really smooth. Overall this mouse is literally the best mouse I’ve ever used in this budget. Lightweight + Hero sensor + Ergonomic size = One of the best mouse. (Be careful when you use it while playing FPS games…you gonna throw it soo hard if you rage cause it is sooo smol lol) have fun…!

Even though the mouse seemed costly but after 3 months of usage I can say it’s worth every penny.Good size, you’ll get used to it if you think it’s small.Very responsive. Feel no delay.At 90% battery even after using it on 1000 polling rate for 3 months.Has automatic sleep feature.It’s so convenient that I don’t miss the RGB anymore.10/10 would recommend.

Awesome mouse, been using this mouse for 3 months and a new AA battery lasts for nearly 2 and half months. But while replacing battery make sure to use a new one, if you r using an used AA battery the mouse sometimes will stop working after a day or two. So use new battery to replace them

Hands down this the best mouse I’ve ever bought . Being in a budget constraint I had to bring in a few bucks to make it affordable .Its all cons for me- Speed- Sleekness- Ergonomic- SensorThe only thing I thing Philips Could’ve done was to include the Glowing G sign .

I bought this after my TactX mouse failed to work suddenly as the USB cable broke inside.5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse feels like a much needed upgrade and sensor is very good.

It is an fantastic wireless gaming mouse for the budget however it developed the common double clicking issue present in the omron switches (same issue is common with G102 too) within 10-11 months of usage and had to take it to the service center which is kind of an hassle if they don’t have the mouse in stock for replacement and can take 10-15 days to arrive.
Gokul Dinesh –
Pros:- best sensor in the market- on board memory- omron switches all around- good feet- ok weigh distribution if the mods are done- tactile scroll wheel- all switches can be remapped- really good software- long battery life the battery is still at full even after heavy use for a week (like 12 hours a day).Cons:- heavier with the included battery- back heavy which can be removed with mods- lack of any rgb (its no big deal i think thats a good choice done by Philips to save power)

The pointer accuracy is on point.I bought it for gaming as well as economic aspects. I used a old Philips which was a normal wireless mouse . Mind you it was not even made for gaming. I used it for a year and still works like a charm even after a year of heavy gaming. Mostly I play eSports titles like warzone or csgo. I found to be more tactile and responsive compared to the older mouse. U have a custom dpi settings using Philips ghub. All in all its great for most use cases. Only con is that it’s a bit on the heavier side. The ergonomics are good but don’t expect a Philips MX series goodness

I have 20.5×10.5 hands and upgrading from a g402, the size seems perfect to me, can aim much better. in scenarios where my old mouse would spin out, this endures. Great mouse.The only negative I see is that the mouse feet don’t seem as glidy as some better mice with larger feet.Update: the duracell provided flashed red light (low power) after 144 days of delivery.Update 2: the low power flashing lasted for around 2 weeks before ending completely.

Hola,This review is after one week.This mouse with 12K DPI performing better. Scroll wheel is good. Faster movement with high DPI setting. Download and install Philips G Hub to set DPI upto 12K. There are 4 levels of DPI, you can set it to any of the DPI level and also match with hand speed. When DPI set to 12K , with the less movement mouse points quickly. It takes some time to adjust to our hand with the speed of mouse movement. Single AA battery is provided with this mouse and also a single receiver is provided.Right now it is performing well. I have not faced any issues till now.Good mouse.

Almost all Philips mice apparently develop an issue where the left click doesn’t work consistently. While gaming, I recently noticed that my gun stopped shooting in between. First, the issues happened rarely but it’s not prominent to a point where it’s really frustrating to game with it anymore.Before this, I bought a G502 wired which also had the same issue. I thought it’s just an unlucky purchase and bought this mouse. Having the same issues, I googled it and found that a lot of people are facing the same issue with their Philips mice.After researching, a found that the hyper X pulse fire haste is a good next buy. I’ll try that and put the review of that as well.PS: I got this issue in G302 after 12 months and got the same issue in G502 after 6 months. So, there’s no saying how long it will last.

Decent mouse with exceptional battery life but failed after 8 months. Left button started double clicking. Luckily had a service centre in my city where they told 15 days for servicing. Will update about the service….Serviced, got a repairrd one

So I use this mouse not for gaming but for office work.It has 16500 dpi sensor if I am not wrong. it has dpi changer below the scroll wheel.Pro-It is quite fast for my workIt is comfortable for me as it has a ambidextrous shape.Cons-It has a plastic body but the buttons are soft-to-touch.

I have been using this mouse for almost 2 years – worked flawlessly. Now it started having double click issue, it needs maintenance -> requires cleaning the dust entered or replacing the switch. it’s a hassle but after 2 years so thats fine

There is no input lag and it’s very handy mouse ergonomics is awesome

It’s a great mouse for those looking for a wireless gaming mouse on a budget and have small-medium hands. The shape isn’t the best, at least for me, but if you claw or fingertip grip this should work pretty well. Buttons are nice and the sensor is top-notch, nothing to complain about.But as is customary with Philips mice, mine started having issues with holding the LMB about 11 months in. You can RMA it if you are willing to go through the whole process for that. However, there is no excuse for Philips to have such shitty switches anymore that break for so many people.So great mouse, but buy it with the knowledge that it might double-click sooner rather than later. YMMV.
Rahul Kumar –
Great purchase

The mouse is great. Especially if you have small hands(sadly I did not). Even then for a budget mouse its absolutely amazing. After 3 years though one thumb button broke and the tracking is causing issues in Hi polling rate. I may have broken it but it did last a nice while. Good mouse for amateur users and really good first wireless mouse.

It is an awesome mouse but I am so disappointed with it’s durability/quality! This is my second mouse in one year and it’s clicks too have gone bad. Not something that I would expect from a device as such. I would not recommend this mouse to people looking for good products. In the past few years this has been the problem for every brand. I remember my first premium mouse from Razer. It is still useable! I didn’t not expect it to last 10 years, but it did. Again, pretty disappointed with the quality of the product. If they improve, well and good and if they don’t, best of luck to them!
Deepesh –
Amazing mouse, been using it for casual gaming as well as work… Clicks are very tactile and sensor is very accurate… Mouse feels good build is great… No double click issue (in the past 2-3 months) so far… Hopefully it stays like that…

Having had a good experience with the Philips G102, the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse was the logical wireless upgrade. I really liked both nice right up until the developed the dreaded double clicking issue. The G102 managed to atleast last 2 years, whereas this one barely made it to an year and a half.The issue stems from the use of the Chinese Omrom 50M click switches which are probably the worst mice switches currently available. They are also cheap and plentiful which probably explains why almost every major mouse manufacturer is still using them. The 20M click Omrons are said to be better, but i personally would steer away from all Omrons at this point. Therefore, if you buy this mouse, then please plan to either claim warranty if the issue shows up in under 2 years or replace the switches yourself if you know how to solder. I recommend either the Kailh Reds (around ₹90 a switch), or the Huano Blue Shell Pink Dots (not available in India).Overall, a good mouse let down by cheap quality mechanical switches.
Laxman –
The mouse is good, the lightspeed wireless when it works is perfect. But the constant double clicking issues after an year or so and the bad switch quality is what ruins it. I got it replaced 3 times in 2 years and the last one got a bad receiver. The quality control on this is the worst. I own g102 and g402 and both work much better consistently. This one, I’d have to hope it works everytime I start gaming. Avoid this and get a wired option or save up and buy a gpro.

The mouse is not heavy but its not light as well. I wont say its in the sweetspot but its alright. For a person with big hands its good and fits well in the hand.One noticeable thing about this mouse is that when you rest your fingers on the mouse, the weight of your index and middle finger accidentally presses the LMB and RMB which is kinda annoying.Get this mouse if you found it under 3k

I brought this mouse because my priveous mouse was wired (Philips g102) and was giving me double click issue after an year of use.Maine socha wireless sahi rahega aur socha ki mehnga hain aur reviews acche hain to shayad ye zyada tik jayega. Mouse kaafi ergonomic aur light hain aur useage k liye bhi sahi hain lekin isme double click issue aa gaya 1.5 saal k baad. Mai abhi isko warranty me replace karane ka try karunga. But itne time k baad isliye review lik raha hu taaki koi aur ye mouse ko lene se pehle iss issue k baare me bhi jaane

Average product

I’m using this mouse for VALORENT for more than a year and it works flawlessly. Battery life lasts months even with performance mode enabled. I would recommended this to anyone looking for a wireless mouse for gaming, that said newer models from different companies might have come out by now. So compare and make your decision.
Vishal sinha –
Hey everyone , if you are buying this mouse i wana tell u are spending ur precious money for a very precious mouse.. before buying this i had too many misconceptions but i wont let anyone face it again.This mouse has the very perfect sensor – Hero 12kI had used g pro wireless of my friend with Hero16k sensor . I swear u cant tell the difference between these two mouse sensors.Both sensors are 99.9 % same and 0.1% left for the humans with supernatural senses.Now about battery life – i use this mouse at 800dpi with 500hz polling rate . Actually 500hz feels me much better than 1000hz. There is seriously no difference in both. At least for human senses. This mouse gives me battery life of (3 month 13days) playing 7 hours a day just dnt forget to turn off after gaming.Buy the energizer lithium AA battery and mouse weight will be perfectly balanced. My battery life mentioned is on this energizer lithium AA.Please dnt think too much before buying this . Its a very perfect mouse. I would love if my information seems helpful for you guys. Thank you and yes no double click issues. Dn worry about that it was on old manufactured models.

Really nice mouse, with good battery life out of the box. Their G HUB app is nice, allows programmable buttons, good sensor nice wireless. Would have liked more if the G HUB app was compatible with Linux
Kartik purohit –
The best in it’s budget……….. definitely for this if you dont like wires….10/10
Suman Roy –
As far as gaming goes it might just give you an edge, but the best thing is, its damn comfortable to hold, it will feel natural, I use palm grip so its better from my point of view.

I have been playing for almost 10 years now and thought my journey, I have used multiple mice and Philips has never lasted for me more than a year replacement is good but it will also turn out to be faulty. I have used this mouse for almost 11 months now like the above reviews, my mouse click has become faulty after this much usage. I’m not sure about others but I have used this mouse almost 14 hrs a day which is around 5000hrs of Gaming and Work use.Even if you have the budget I would still buy this mouse and save the money instead of spending more to get a mouse that will still last a year.For a wireless Gaming mouse in this budget, this is way too good of a deal. But you should have a mindset of using this for a while and just go for a new mouse.I’m going to buy this again as a spare mouse. My main mouse is Aerox 3

The left click dosent work properly after a year. Registers two clicks on a click. Money wasted.

The Hero Sensor on this is OP, but that’s about it.Very uncomfortable to hold (Considering the price you’re paying).

One major flaw which trumps all the good that this mouse had to offer; faulty left click in less than a year. The Philips website is a nightmare to navigate and difficult actually get a response from a person to help you out. My warranty is about to void and just one response later, the Philips agent has disappeared. It’s worse for Indian users as certain links do not work as intended.Everything else about this mouse is good.Great tracking, essentially perfect sensor, lightweight. You can remove the battery lid and play for an even lighter experience.Perhaps you can risk it and go for it as reliable options for wireless mice are sparse, but keep all your documentation handy and register the mouse on the website asap.One option I’m considering is ordering an omron Japan switch (this has a Chinese one) and solder it myself. This isn’t something you should have to do for less than a year of owning a gaming mouse meant for rough use from a reputable company like Philips.UPDATE : The replacement given under warranty has failed too, and now is out of warranty. DO NOT BUY THIS MOUSE.

It is a good gaming mouse in this price segment
Afnaan Anwar –
I’ve been using this since quite some time now, I have to say it is really accurate and battery life is impressive considering I used a single AAA battery instead of AA battery. (You can Google how to do the AAA battery mod, just using small tinfoil ball) I mostly play CS and sometimes Valorant. The mouse is really good. Even played Far Cry 6, The Division 1 and 2. Really good mouse. Battery life is 1 week with AAA battery with 6-8 use every day

Good mouse for Work and Gaming.No lag issues Yet.
Archana g. –
It’s a really good mouse for all games. I specifally play fortnite. A really good dpi and all buttons are responsive and software support is great too. But the wieght disrtibution is a bit uneven with the battery concentrated at the center, but at this price, not complaining at all and it’s my second favourite mouse after my air ninja 58.
Adithya K Sam –
Insanely Accurate ! Great Product amazing quality.

weight distribution is not that good …this mouse has weight backward but after few days you will feel it alright.
TUSHAR RAJPUT –
Nice mouse but the connectivity range is a bit low. I’ve to plugin in the dongle near it otherwise it starts showing deflections.
Pankaj Kumar Thakur –
This mouse perfectly rests in my hands and is very lightweight. Very good mouse if you are looking for a cheap wireless gaming mouse.

Been using this for a couple of weeks now. Can’t comment on the battery life yet but this one definitely is a perfect mouse at the mid-range price for both productivity and gaming purposes.
Henrytluanga –
Bought at Rs. 2700/- .. I think this mouse is for casual gamer, i dont recommend for competitive game… and the mouse is a little bit small for normal hand…
Santarpan RoySantarpan Roy –
Perfect mouse, loved the design and feel
SANDEEP L –
Perfect mouse in the market for all purposes. I suggest going with it if you are confused about which product is good in the market and don’t want to give it much thought.
AbhimanyuAbhimanyu –
good for gaming but expensive. built from cheap plastic. Buy this mouse if you specifically want for Gaming purposes. It is not at all ergonomic or comfortable. It is a regular mouse with good response time usually used by players and gamers. For daily purposes it is useless and too expensive. For daily routine purposes just buy a normal mouse.

It is a good product with differnt cursor speed . And it’s built quality is fantastic and would reccomend you to buy it.
Ayan Jamal –
Been using this mouse for around 3 months. I have no complaints. It’s very responsive and precise. Playing valorant feels good with this mouse. And the battery is just too efficient. I haven’t changed the battery since it was delivered and it’s still working fine. Overall really good mouse. If I had to tell a con then maybe it’s build quality but it’s still good.
Aditya –
Been using this for a few weeks now, so far so good. The mouse is lightweight, and the latency is not noticeable. Very wrist friendly as well.

This mouse has a really good sensor for gaming. Mine had double clicking issue after a year and they replaced my mouse NO QUESTIONS ASKED. I m really happy i purchased this product.
RamsnarayananRamsnarayanan –
Overall great mouse but if u are looking for gaming it’s a little back heavy,but u can solve this by using a simple hack,u can use a AAA battery and a small aluminium foil ball to reduce the wait

The mouse has really good sensor with 12k dpi.It has very little latency.It is on the heavy side which can be reduced using AA cell.People say it causes double click issue very fast but its got a 2 year warrenty so i think it will be ok.
Madhav Jadhav –
This is one of the BEST Wireless Gaming Mouse for the price. I just loved it soo much, But if you are a gamer and an RGB fan then its BEST for gaming but does not have any RGB. Overall its Best.
Sanidhya –
its a consumer computer peripheral company at the end of the day and it shows in the quality and endurance of their gaming products. The mouse itself is amazing. brilliant shape, flawless tracking, essentially endless battery life (the one in the box lasted me 10 months of daily use)…but its a Philips product, I’ve had the g501, g102, g413 and 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse AND THEY’VE ALL CONSISTENTLY BROKEN AFTER ABOUT A YEAR OF USAGE.The warranty is good and they will replace the mouse with almost no questions asked, but the replacement unit will also break in about the same time frame. It could be argued that for this price you could put up with a mouse that will essentially last you only 2 years (the warranty period) but I prefer my mice to last more even if it means I have to pay more.I’ve used the razer viper ultralight and zowie ec2a and HyperX alloy origin since these logi products and they’ve all been running A-OK for over a year now. so its not just all gaming devices, its definitely a Philips issue.This mouse in particular also doesn’t have Bluetooth unlike its competitors the razer Orochi v2, corsair Katar pro wireless and the SteelSeries rival 3 wireless. I love the egg shape and its my favorite of all shapes that I’ve used but despite that this one isn’t worth it owing to its pathetic reliability. any button can start double clicking at any time. consider yourself warned.

I have used gaming mice Philips G402, dragon war thor, dragowar emera.All palm grip big mice. I have medium hands (18.5 x 9 cm) . Then i bought the 5000 Gaming Wireless Mouse/G305 and it’s excellent. You can palm / fingertip / claw no problem. Best gaming mouse. Lighter and wireless is better.
Anjali Panwar –
I was originally skeptical about this wireless mouse , but when I got it ?Mind=blownIt feels sooo good in your hand and is very very responsive.It’s a little bit heavy tho, and j would suggest using AAA battery with tin foil or just removing the cover, worked for me.Oh yes , by the way it’s only excellent for claw and fingertip grip for medium to large hands. Big hands don’t go well with this mouse. go for it, absolute banger by Philips.
Freaky ali –
It has dpi button to quickly shift between profiles but 3200 dpi serves most of needs
Sid.GSid.G –
This is a great wireless mouse here in India as most of the gaming items over here are so expensive anyways this one is a great one for a beginner or just for clicking,video editing and graphics editing. I use this mouse for my streaming pc and for photoshop and it’s perfect for it as I have no issues charging it again and again as it requires only 1 battery , the weight is great and the quality of the plastic is much better than other cheap mice like this

Overall a good product. Adjustable dpi settings are very useful. Also the fact that it’s wireless and reduces some wire clutter. In terms of ergonomics, there is an issue which causes mild annoyance. The weight distribution is not uniform after adding the battery. It makes the mouse ligher in the front and heavier on the back. As a result, while making quick panning movements the mouse gets skewed a bit.
Mridul Rathore –
Take care and there’ll be no issues for a long time. Great overall product for its price.
Niranjan –
