Logitech G POWERPLAY - Wireless Charging Technology

Continuous Wireless Charging System

POWERPLAY

A breakthrough in wireless charging that allows compatible wireless gaming mice to simply always remain charged, both at rest and at play.

A Revolution in Gaming

With POWERPLAY and LIGHTSPEED technology integrated, Logitech G has solved the barriers to high-performance wireless gaming. Input lag, wireless drops and dead batteries are now a thing of the past. Wireless is the future of PC gaming, made possible through advanced science and unrivaled engineering.

“What we wanted to achieve is complete wireless and uninterrupted gameplay at the highest level of performance”

— Laurent Plancherel, Principal Electrical Engineer at Logitech

UNLIMITED POWER

The ability to wirelessly charge a device both at rest and in motion is a feat in electrical and mechanical engineering that has never before been achieved. Logitech G committed to this breakthrough and relentlessly pursued the innovations that POWERPLAY required.

It is the first and only of its kind that delivers continuous charging while mouse is in motion via low-frequency electromagnetic field. This field covers a broad surface area, so your mouse is charged anywhere on the pad. A variety of Logitech G mice are POWERPLAY compatible. Simply add the POWERCORE to your compatible mouse. POWERPLAY does the rest.

Pro-Grade LIGHTSPEED Wireless

POWERPLAY delivers continuous power in addition to acting as a LIGHTSPEED wireless receiver. The combination of the most versatile continuous charging system and the wireless technology that pro esports players use to win tournaments delivers the ultimate wireless gaming experience. POWERPLAY also cleans up your desktop, with just one USB connection for wireless charging and LIGHTSPEED connectivity.

Journey To 4 Millimeters

Achieving the incredibly slim form factor was another huge challenge in the design of POWERPLAY. We know that gamers must have a slim mouse pad for optimal performance, so this was a must for POWERPLAY. Through rigorous materials selection, the result is an industry-first multilayer lamination process. Materials also include polycarbonate for protection of internals and rigidity, and a proprietary anti-slip treatment between mouse pad surface and POWERPLAY base.

“To pack all this technology into a 4 mm thick pad, we had to reinvent our manufacturing process and explore multiple new materials”

— Vickie Chang, Senior Mechanical Engineer at Logitech
