"when hardwired with their power kit the parking mode never misses a motion event."
"We have four roborock S7’s running in our 5,000 sqft office. ... Bought them since they first came out years ago. ... They run every day. ... Only last year did we replace the battery for all 4. ... Other than that, no issue at all, rock solid, very pleased that we also have them for our homes too."
"My Roborock S7 does about 2,000 sqft twice a week since 2021, and it's still going strong"

"Spell keybinds is like, the entire reason to have a mouse with more buttons for me."
"Three thumb buttons plus two next to the LMB ... I find it's enough ... I've struggled with actual MMO mice being uncomfortable to use"
"I used my G502 for years and I loved it because I was learning MnK, the buttons really helped me quite a lot ... Now I just usually bind my melee button in most shooters and the other button I might pick some kind of game specific action"

"Reason I always get a new g502 is the button placement for using mouse4 as my crouch is just too perfect /comfortable"
"G502 fits my meat mallets."
"very comfortable"

"G502 because it has a button to let the scroll wheel free wheel. That's saying enough"
"The infinite scroll. For long pages, coding, and using so many apps (even 3D modelling, game engines etc). It makes life so much easier. Once you're past the learning curve, you can't go back. It's like scrolling on a phone screen."
"truly the infinite scroll feature is my favorite part"

"micro movement is rly hard with it because its heavy ... that couses inconsistency when you play more than 2-3hrs ... i usually played csgo , 2 now , and after few games i was slower and losing duels because of that ... i had problem with micro aim probably because its big and heavy ... for control its bad"
"I use a g502 with all weights attached 💀💀 ... I switch between a g502 and a g pro super light and the difference is like running and waddling through water"
"yeah i used to get wrist pain after 3 or 4 matches of Valorant. ... It was a bad habit i developed while using the G502."

"The keys start double pressing after a couple months of moderate use. ... it's basically useless once that starts. ... It just stops functioning as a useful keyboard when the keys start double clicking. ... I've had 4 of the keys go so far."
"After 7-ish, double clicking Nagas"
"I returned the G Pro to Amazon myself after the left button started acting up after three weeks. ... Also I remember a few years ago, Canada Computers had 15-20 open boxes of the G Pro Wired in every store due to mass returns. ... The ghost clicks have been a common issue with all Logitech mice for the past 5-6 years. ... My conclusion is that there is something wrong with the design of the Logitech mice themselves that causes the switches to wear out very quickly."

"much easier and less straining on the hand, unlike the G502, during flicks and stuff."
"The Teevolution Terra fills the hand much better than my G502 does"
"I have 21cm hand and can fingertip g502 to small mouse."

"for the two buttons on the top, it's almost impossible to hit just one at a time. ... Spell keybinds is like, the entire reason to have a mouse with more buttons for me."
"button xonfig and positioning is a bit off, keep switching dpi macros by accident mid game."
"Hah, yeah good point. ... my only issue is that for the two buttons on the top, it's almost impossible to hit just one at a time."

"GHUB on my G502 is mildly annoying (sometimes I have to alt-tab twice to get it to recognize a game and switch profiles)"
"my biggest gripe is HAVING to use the newer G software, hate it. ... the older one was so much more friendly imo."
"Logitech software is poorly designed."
240hzghost 1.0You will also feel a difference once you remove all the weights from your G502 Check these out: * [Razer Cobra](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Razer-Cobra-Lightweight-Underglow-Adjustments/dp/B0C5XNRVWM/ref=sr_1_6?sr=8-6) * [Logitech G305 Lightspeed Wireless](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-Wireless-Lightweight-Programmable-compatible/dp/B07CGPZ3ZQ/ref=sr_1_5?sr=8-5)
You can go for the Razer Cobra. I started using the G502 in 2016, and it stopped working in 2022. After that, I switched to the Razer Basilisk V3, but it stopped working last month. Now I’m back to using the G502, though I’m planning to switch to the PRO X Superlight 2 DEX Wireless.
2ChaoticNeutral4U 1.0I use wasd for movement. I press 1-5 with my fingers. 6-0 is on my mouse, I have a Logitech G502 Hero I bought solely for playing this game. I have action camera bound to q, special ability to e (it used to be - and I'm not reaching that far to press it), f is for interaction, right shift for dodge, x for mounting. I main a Reaper so I just have to reach for F1 for shroud. All the keys I need are around wasd or within reach of my left hand, and I do not touch the keyboard with my right hand. I'm middle aged and have been playing on computers with keyboards and mice since I was a kid, so muscle memory is strong. I struggled when I was a teenager to switch from cursor keys to wasd, but it's now normal.
AcceptableBear9771 1.0I retired my G502 HERO a few month ago after years of service. Got a new one without even remotely thinking about it. It's such a good mouse for its price!
achristian103 1.0G502 Hero is the choice here as others have mentioned
Adnaoc 1.0Logitech g502 hero, the best mouse I ever use.
advacardo 1.0You'll be fine with a regular mouse. It's MMOs like ESO where side buttons are useful. I have a Logitech g502 hero and that works well for all my MMOs. Also it has an unlockable scroll wheel which is very nice
aliarr 1.0is the best one i have come across. Used to be a corsair slut, but found their peripherals break without much time or use. (4 mice, 2 keyboards, 1 headset = all broke with light use / not a lot of time)
AL-KINDA 1.0it sorta does or its the new shapes of mouse. this g502 hero is garbo compared to my discontinued logitech weighted mouse.
aLostSymbol 1.0The Zowie S1-C is a nice wired mouse with some weight. The Logitech G502 Hero has extra metal weights which you can add or remove to your liking. Most mice at the moment tend to be on the smaller, lighter side though.
angardia 1.0G502 hero if im not wrong comes with weight, but its with cable only, so its similar to mine. And basilisk only around 110g. I understand that new trend is lighter the better, but i love the feeling that my hand on the mouse has this weight and hard position on the pad. ❤️
