"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards."
"Been using them for about four years working out in my gym, and cycling daily (45+ minutes on a bicycle outdoors)."
"They last absolutely forever (I know 1980s models still in daily use)"

"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"

"I couldn't go back to the G502 now I use all 12 buttons!"
"With the Naga I map the center button on the bottom row to shift. ... And with that I can roll my thumb up, left, or right and get another three keybinds. ... And just having shift there also lets me press that for shift, instead of my left pinky. One less thing for my left hand to do. Makes Shift+4 while moving and jumping easier. ... This gives me ready, instant access to the entire hotbar. And with shift, an entire second hotbar (excepting shift+7 and shift+9)."
"Only the Naga let's me assign shift to one of the middle row buttons, then easily roll my thumb left and right to get shift4 or shift6 from just my thumb."

"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."

"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"
"Thing is a brick ... After using light weight mice it's hard to go back to that weight."
"the weight is way too much even for work."
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 ->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. ->Mine is the G502 Proteus Spectrum from 2018
r/LogitechG • What Logitech mouse is everyone using right now? ->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? ->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.
r/ffxiv • MMO mouse for FFXIV ->G502 showing up 5 individual times on the overall chart warms my heart
r/pcmasterrace • The 25 most recommended gaming mouse according to Reddit (in the past year as of Jun 2025) ->Why wireless? Unless you're using a laptop that you move around, I'd think wired would be better. I used to use a wireless mouse but got tired of worrying about the battery. I use the g502 wired now since I don't ever move it from my desk
r/wow • What MMO mouse would you Recommend for WoW? ->Honestly, after being on the deathadder for like 10 years, then to steel series, I have the Logitech g502 now and it's just perfect. Would never go back.
r/cs2 • Which is the best for cs 2 ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
