Which is better for console gaming?

The Pulsefire Fuse. It connects wirelessly to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, while the G203 is a wired USB mouse for computers.

Which has lower latency?

The G203 states a 1,000 Hz (1 ms) polling rate. HyperX does not publish a polling rate for the Pulsefire Fuse, so the wired G203 is the safer latency claim.

Which lasts longer between charges?

Neither has a rechargeable battery. The Pulsefire Fuse runs on a replaceable AAA battery; the G203 never needs one because it draws power from the cable.

Is the Pulsefire Fuse worth it over the G203?

Only if you need wireless or console support. For wired desktop play, the G203 gives you a stated 1 ms polling rate and a much larger ratings base.

The Pulsefire Fuse at 75 g including the battery, versus 85 g for the G203.

Does the G203 work on a glass desk?

No. Logitech lists mousepads and desks as its tracking surfaces. The Pulsefire Fuse is rated for all surfaces including glass.
