When it comes to performance, a mousepad will fall into one of three categories – control, speed, or balance.

There’s not much to say about it, which is probably a good thing because it also means there isn’t really anything wrong with it. Once you apply pressure to your mouse the feet sink into the pad somewhat, greatly slowing it down, but if you don’t do that then the relatively smooth surface won’t do very much to actually stop your mouse. We’ve sent one over to our reviewer to find out what’s up, and you can read all about it in our full Logitech G740 review. Rubber bases have proven to be the most efficient because they do not allow for too much friction that causes your mousepad to move all over the place while you’re dragging your mouse across it. Maybe if it was less expensive, it would be easier, but as it stands, I can’t recommend this mousepad.

Regardless, this is a completely honest assessment of the product, and all the opinions expressed in this Logitech G640 mousepad review are my unbiased thoughts. This definitely isn’t a mousepad that feels as if it’s totally letting you run free with your mouse, so to say, but it also isn’t a dedicated control pad if you ask me. Their main cloth mousepad line (containing the G640 and the G840) has been going for years now, and with the pads showing no signs of slowing down in the pro scene it’s perhaps not a surprise that Logitech isn’t in a hurry to release new pads.

The Logitech G740 is a pad that does the essentials right, but it’s not a very exciting or revolutionary addition to the world of gaming mousepads.

Xuyên suốt phía trên, bàn di chuột có kết cấu sạch sẽ, ổn định để theo dõi mượt mà trên toàn bộ bề mặt. Let me first reply to the question that’s on everyone’s lips: there is no difference between the surface of the G740 and the G640/G840.

It doesn’t have to be; nailing the basics and offering a controlling surface that doesn’t go into ‘mud pad’ territory can definitely be enough for a lot of players (just look at how many pros are using the G640, which has the same surface material) but if you were expecting some type of extremely specialized or revolutionary product you’re better off looking elsewhere. This flattens out, and it’s not curved to the extent where I felt like it hampered my performance, but it’s worth mentioning regardless. Knowing that some designs and patterns can interfere with sensor performance, the G640 cloth mouse was designed for consistent performance.Even if you have no experience with the G640 and you want a thick pad that gives you a controlling glide (with more control in the static friction department than in the dynamic friction department) this could be one to take a look at. I never had any issues with the G640’s white Logitech G logo since it didn’t look distracting or gaudy to me, but the blacked out logo, combined with the black foam (this is blue on the G640) makes for a pad that looks sleek and will fit in any setup.
