Our Verdict

Logitech G Pro Wireless

Gigabyte AORUS M5

The Logitech G Pro Wireless is a better gaming mouse than the Gigabyte AORUS M5. The Logitech is much lighter and feels better built, and you can use it wirelessly via its USB receiver. It has a wider CPI range, a more consistent sensor, a lower lift-off distance, and much lower click latency. Also, it has an extra pair of buttons on its right side, and you can set a G-Shift button that enables a second layer of controls. On the other hand, the Gigabyte comes with extra weights if you prefer heavier mice.
