"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."
Pulsar Xlite v4 Large model probably. Pulsar is on Amazon but have 2 year warranty per their website. Intellimouse Pro maybe too (no wireless rip)? Lamzu Thorn as well. Lots of good big mice out there outside of Logi/Razer. Depends if you are wanting all the extra buttons. If you do, just grab the new 502 and don't worry about it.
r/MouseReview • Better gaming mouse than G502 Lightspeed in 2025? ->I've got G402, G502 and G502X and After all this time I still think the G402 is the best simply due to the fact it has no RUBBER on the left side so it NEVER feels sticky. Truth.
r/MouseReview • 4 Years Later Review of my Logitech G402 Hyperion Fury ->You 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)
r/MouseReview • Best budget mouse, available on Amazon worldwide ->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.
r/MouseReview • Best budget mouse, available on Amazon worldwide ->I 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.
r/Guildwars2 • How The Heck Do Y’all Press All These Buttons?! (New To MMORPGs On PC) ->I use a 144hz screen, I have a G502 and an MX3s. Honestly yeah the G502 is more responsive, but the MX3s is way more comfortable. I just switch between them depending on what I need to do.
r/logitech • Update on my new MX Master 4. This is goodbye. ->No idea how so many people like that monstrosity. Tried it, my pinkie gets numb because of the positioning. I have to constantly adjust my grip, my hand is too big for it. On top of that, is heavier than a 203 or 103 which have such a simple and better design. I will be forever a hater of g502.
r/pcmasterrace • The 25 most recommended gaming mouse according to Reddit (in the past year as of Jun 2025) ->Im never betraying my dear g502
r/gaming • Why was the Logitech G203 considered to be the best gaming mouse of all time? ->I dont rest my whole hand on it Is what i realised just now,my palm rests on my desk while mu fingers are mostly in the sir,maybie weird but hey pereferences exist.
r/gaming • Why was the Logitech G203 considered to be the best gaming mouse of all time? ->G502 Hero is the choice here as others have mentioned
r/pcmasterrace • Help for a mouse that fits my hand ->And it is heavy. And I’ve bought like 6 over the years, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
r/gaming • Why was the Logitech G203 considered to be the best gaming mouse of all time? ->Oh, to be clear, I haven’t needed replacements for any of them, though I did upgrade my daily work noise to a lightspeed one. The extras I bought were for other workstations and friends and family. Friends don’t let friends use oem mice. I haven’t had one die on me yet, though the rubber coating is getting a bit gross on the most heavily used ones (about 10 years old now). I have 2 more fresh in box that I bought when they were on sale for $35 at best but a few years back.
r/gaming • Why was the Logitech G203 considered to be the best gaming mouse of all time? ->You don’t need an MMO mouse to play. If you weren’t struggling with your old keybinds there is no need to change. I use a G502 and simply remap the thumb buttons to control and shift using the keyboard for the rest of it and it works wonders.
