"LIGHTSPEED and POWERPLAY made the dream of untethered and uncompromised
wireless performance a reality," said Ujesh Desai, vice president and
general manager of Logitech G. "The new HERO sensor in our G603 wireless
mouse and the new G613 wireless mechanical keyboard show our commitment
to driving wireless performance even further across our product line."
HERO Optical Sensor
To achieve the goal of creating a high-performance wireless gaming mouse
that also offers long-lasting battery performance, we invented a brand
new sensor. HERO, which stands for High Efficiency Rated Optical sensor,
provides next-generation efficiency - creating the best optical sensor
ever designed for wireless gaming. HERO offers precision and accuracy at
12,000 DPI with no acceleration or smoothing and 10x the power
efficiency of previous generation sensors.
Next Generation Wireless Gaming Mouse
The Logitech G603 delivers a completely wireless experience with
performance high enough for even the most demanding gamers. It’s the
first gaming mouse to feature Logitech G’s HERO sensor with exceptional
accuracy and precision with sensitivity up to 12,000 DPI. The Logitech
G603 harnesses HERO’s efficiency potential to deliver over 500 hours of
non-stop gaming at maximum performance. It uses LIGHTSPEED wireless
technology to deliver professional-grade wireless performance and
unrivaled reliability, even surpassing many wired gaming mice.
High-Performance Wireless Mechanical Keyboard
Designed for a wireless world, the Logitech G613 features LIGHTSPEED
wireless technology for a super fast 1ms report rate and Bluetooth for
multi-device connectivity. It delivers up to 18 months of gaming on two
AA batteries. The Logitech G613 also includes six programmable G-keys,
putting custom macro sequences and in-app commands at your fingertips.
It also features Logitech G’s exclusive Romer-G™ mechanical key
switches, providing competition grade performance with incredible feel
and durability. Romer-G switches actuate at a distance of 1.5mm, which
is up to 25 percent shorter and faster than the leading competitor.
Combined with a low-force 45g actuation, Romer-G switches provide
near-instant responsiveness and help minimize fatigue over long gaming
sessions.
Table Sized Mouse Pad
Designed for players who value wide playspaces and clean setups, the
Logitech G840 is an extra-large mouse pad that you can spread across
your desk. Set your keyboard and mouse on top of it for a cleaner, more
uniform look.

Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard are expected to be available at
