Silly DPI numbers. I wonder if those have even proper sensors for that stuff or if it's done via weird methods resulting in subpar performance in high DPI settings like it a lot of times is.

Check the news. All reputable mouse companies have increased their prices, be it Logitech, Steelseries, Razer, Cyborg, Corsair, you name it. I had a G500 for which I paid 50EUR. 5 years of usage have taken their toll on the mouse and started having clicking problems (aaand there's also the fact that I got pissed and ****ed up the scroll button by punching it but that's something else). So I basically bought the logical solution, G500s (its successor) for which I paid 80EUR. That's quite a bit more. Is it worth it? Probably, yeah. Considering a mouse like this lasts for at least 5 years (had an MX518 for 7 years), it's still worth it imo.
well yea, that's my point. My MX310 is still alive with some small issues but every other logi I bought after 2005 lasted 2 years tops. :wanker:

OEM thick skulls >P We still get our toys.
I was half asleep when i saw that title and almost made that same mistake thinking they're leaving the mouse market entirely. I've used logitech mice for over 20 years and have zero desire to buy other brands. Had they actually left the business, I would probably have bought 3-4 mice I really like and put them away since no matter how hard I try, I can't bring myself to like any other brands. edit: I just checked their site and noticed a mouse i've never seen before. Looks nice... http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/mx-master?crid=7

Logitech cant compete with many newcomers to the high perf mice scene. No wonder they're opting out.
Actually on a technical level they're currently the best (G502/G303). Sales aren't reflecting it though. Deathadder is actually one of the best sold mice (which was actually Razer's answer to the MX518).

Once upon a time, I used to love Logitech and did own many of their high end mice including G8, G9 and MX series... However, there is a lot of competition and Logitech aren't as good as they used to be, unfortunately. That said, I would still rank them in the best 3 mice available... There is fierce competition from others such as Razer & Corsair.
