Rank history
Just missed the top 5
GPT Razer Viper V3 HyperSpeed — excellent shape and sensor, but the AA-battery design makes it heavier than the top FPS picks · Logitech G305 Lightspeed — still great value, but too heavy and dated versus newer lightweight budget mice
Claude Logitech G203 Lightsync — great $30 starter but wired, stiff cable, and 85g with a dated G Pro shape that lags the field · Lamzu Maya — excellent ultralight shape and build, but street price hovers just above $70 and stock/QC inconsistency keep it out of a strict under-$70 list
