G500 have nice design, but buttons are prone to die soon (also replacements). It was when I move to Razer.
r/windowsxp • Some older Logitech gaming mice ->I think i use the g500? It's the Logitech MMO mouse. Use the side buttons or don't, but that's a quality large mouse. I still find myself doing a mini claw when I prefer to palm, but as a large handed fella, we take what we can get
r/pcmasterrace • Help for a mouse that fits my hand ->My G500 is still going strong - bought it in 2010 or so. It’s been relegated to my work laptop but that’s only because I wanted a wireless mouse for gaming.
r/pcmasterrace • [ Removed by moderator ] ->G500, not sure how old it is, at least 10 years and still good. Its never needed charging or anything....
r/LogitechG • What Logitech mouse is everyone using right now? ->Once I found the perfect fitting mouse for me, I bought a lifetime supply of them. Logitech g500. I still have like 10
r/pcmasterrace • Help for a mouse that fits my hand ->Actually, my original g502 proteus (first edition) wired still works today.after 11-12 years And if works flawlessly too, the cable is a little beat up My 19 year old g500 also still works and looks brand new, but this one been unused for many years
r/LogitechG • Today I realized I've been using this mouse for over 18 years ->[Logitech G500](https://imgur.com/YNxdc9J)! Loved it, had a little rack to put weights into, an on/off-able free scroll wheel, the sides were textured a little rough for better grip. I'd buy another one if they made them again just for the nostalgia.
r/MouseReview • What was your first "official" gaming mouse? ->I've been on a g500 for 15 years. The day it dies, will probably the day I stop playing WoW. Sooo much muscle memory, it'll be difficult to go to anything else.
r/wow • Best mouse for WoW with side buttons? ->Agreed. The G502 is still king of the "compromise-between-gaming-and-productivity-features" category for me, mostly due to its mechanically toggled scroll wheel. Besides weight, the only other feature that I consider missing is detachable/replaceable cable for the wired version, especially if they're coming out of the box with these cheap non-braided cables. It would also help if they had better QC to prevent chatter-prone switches, although the one I'm currently using is apparently one of the lucky ones (but my previous G500 and G500S both ran into chatter issues). The only real non-Logitech competition I've seen so far are Razer's Basilisk series (heavier and the scroll wheel toggle is software controlled iirc) and Keychron's MX Master clone (no wired-only option and typical Chinese after-sales support).
r/MouseReview • Gaming mice peaked? ->Still need a Logitech G5 or G500 type Mouse because the other ones are not as big nor comfortable. Also if you have your hand in that position of the claw without a big enough Mouse it'll cause your hand in forearm to cramp really bad and it's terrible
r/pcmasterrace • Help for a mouse that fits my hand ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
