Our Verdict
Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED
Razer Mamba Wireless
The Razer Mamba Wireless is a slightly better FPS gaming mouse than the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED. The Razer feels better built and more comfortable, especially for fans of palm grip. It can be used wired or wirelessly, unlike the Logitech, which is wireless-only. Finally, the Razer has a higher max CPI and more programmable buttons. On the other hand, the Logitech is better suited for a fingertip grip, has slightly lower click latency, and a lower lift-off distance. Logitech's G HUB software is also fully compatible with Windows and macOS, while Razer Synapse 3 is only compatible with Windows.
