G303 vs G302

[hansnothanz]

So where i live the g302 is widely available and all that but i worry about the censor because i saw a guy on youtube demonstrating that the sensor tends to spin out sometimes and that the mouse wobles because there are no teflon pads on yhe left and right side, and most importantly sensor rattle, has logitech fixed these issues in new batches? 

I tried the g302 in an event and i like the weight and shape more than my current g502 but i didn't bit the bullet yet because of my concern

And also by the way the g303 in my area(philippines) is only available, last time i checked, online for like $73 when converted compared to g302 which is $40

 

Which should i choose. Decisions decisions

 

And also sorry for the ill constructed post

They are exactly the same except the G303 is RGB while the G302 only has blue lighting. The sensor is the same, the buttons are the same and the weight is the same. Just get the G303.

They dont use the same sensor, the g302 uses the AM010 and the g303 uses the PMW3366

Still, just get the G303. It has RGB so you might as well get it and if it does have a better sensor, you should go for it only if you're into competitive games like League of Legends or CS:GO. If you're a casual gamer and want to save money, go for the G302.

Wrong. G303 has a better sensor - PWM3366, whilst the G302 has a lower grade AM010 sensor. The other difference between them is that the G303 has extra feet for improved stability.

 

Some G303 batches suffer from a sensor rattle so look out for that.

Any way i can tell the bad batches based on the box? And i saw a g302 with extra feet on the bottom. Has logitech addressed it and fixed it in new batches?

There's no way to tell if your mouse is going to have the said issue only with looking at the box. Some of the faulty G303s don't have it straight away. If you can test the mouse before buying, shake it to see if it rattles and if there is even a slight rattle, don't purchase it. According to Logitech, the issue has already been resolved, but the store you are buying from might still have some of the old mice.

As for the extra feet, I'm unaware of that. Logitech's website still shows that the G302 lacks them.

I can just tell the store that the rattle is a defect right so i can purchase another mouse right? And as for the extra feet on the g302, weird because litteraly yesterday i used the mouse and was shocked it has extra feet

Depends on the store's return policy. It's a defect, so they should replace it. If they refuse, you can RMA it to Logitech and get one from a newer batch.

Are you sure it was a G302? If you are, then Logitech might have secretly released an updated version in some places, like they did with the G502 before making an official announcement.
