Logitech expands its budget G3 Series in the Philippines
Logitech G has brought its more affordable G3 Series to the Philippines, launching the G304 X SUPERLIGHT wireless gaming mouse and the G316 X 98 wired mechanical keyboard. They join the earlier G325 LIGHTSPEED wireless headset to form a matching, lower-cost desktop set. Local suggested retail prices are ₱4,995 for the mouse and ₱5,695 for the keyboard, Gadgets Magazine reports, with the G325 headset at ₱5,495.
The pitch is high-end features at lower prices. "By fusing elite precision, like our sub-micron HERO 44K sensor and 8 kHz report rates, with high-end heritage design, we are enabling everyday gamers to level up their gaming experience at an approachable price tag," said Arnaud Perret-Gentil, head of product for PC gaming and creators at Logitech G.

G304 X SUPERLIGHT: lighter body, faster sensor
The G304 X SUPERLIGHT updates the shape of the original G304 with a lighter, roughly 59-gram body and Logitech's HERO sensor, which reaches up to 44,000 DPI (dots per inch — how far the cursor moves per inch of mouse travel). It supports LIGHTSPEED wireless, Bluetooth, and wired USB-C, and can hit an 8 kHz report rate (how many times per second it tells the PC where it is) when paired with the optional PRO LIGHTSPEED Receiver.
Logitech rates it for more than 130 hours of battery life, and USB-C fast charging gives about 3.5 hours of play from a two-minute top-up. The mouse uses at least 51% recycled plastic, and its exposed screws are meant to make it easier to open and repair. Independent coverage of the global version, sold as the G305 X, lists the same 59g weight and HERO 44K sensor, as The Gadgeteer notes.
G316 X 98: enthusiast keyboard features, lower price
The G316 X 98 is a wired mechanical keyboard with a compact 98-key layout and features usually reserved for pricey custom boards. It uses hot-swappable switches — you can pull and replace the mechanical switches without soldering — and a multi-layer gasket build for a softer, deeper typing feel. It runs at an 8 kHz report rate with a claimed 0.125 ms response time.
An onboard dot-matrix LED screen and control dial let you adjust report rate, brightness, volume, and music playback on the fly, while per-key RGB and a 30-zone light bar handle the lighting. Macros and key assignments are set through Logitech's G HUB software.
G325 completes the set
The G325 LIGHTSPEED wireless headset rounds out the trio with 24-bit audio and a boomless microphone that uses AI-powered noise reduction to cut background sound. All three products work with G HUB for tuning performance, lighting, and macros.
Why it matters for Filipino gamers
For local PC gamers, the appeal is getting Logitech's flagship-grade sensor and 8 kHz speeds without paying flagship prices. A sub-₱5,000 SUPERLIGHT mouse with a HERO 44K sensor is aggressive, and the ₱5,695 keyboard brings hot-swap switches — a feature enthusiasts love — into a mainstream price range. For context, the global launch prices were about $79.99 (around ₱4,935) for the mouse and $119.99 (around ₱7,400) for the keyboard, so the Philippine keyboard SRP actually lands below a straight dollar conversion. The three pieces are designed to match, so budget-minded buyers can build a coordinated Logitech setup for roughly ₱16,000 total.
