Logitech POWERPLAY

Back in early 2016, Logitech unveiled the G900 Chaos Spectrum, a wireless gaming mouse that was faster than wired ones. It was the best gaming mouse ever, and now they’ve improved it with the G903, which adds compatibility with the POWERPLAY, a mouse pad that charges the G903 and G703 wirelessly.

As mice have gotten better and better, mouse pads have become less and less necessary, and until the PowerPlay (not capitalizing that anymore), the biggest “innovation” in mouse pads over the past couple years has been the addition of RGB lighting.

With the G903/PowerPlay pairing, Logitech has solved the two main problems with wireless gaming mice- lag and the eventual need to plug in to recharge. The PowerPlay package includes multiple gaming surfaces to suit your preferences, and even better, the PowerPlay doubles as the wireless receiver for your G903/G703, so you only lose one USB port to the two products.

And yes, it works. After a few minutes of the magic setting in, you’ll never think about plugging your mouse again, and eventually forget it was ever a thing.
