r/logitechUpdate on my new MX Master 4. This is goodbye.
6 months ago

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/wowI analyzed 1 year of gaming mouse recommendations on Reddit (Nov 2024–2025). These are the top 20 ones on r/wow

Yep, got 3 of them and none of them have had any issues so far, going strong for 5+ years on all of them. After a terrible experience with SteelSeries mice, this one was a revelation.

r/pcmasterraceG502 Lightspeed is the best peripheral!

Lightspeed? No idea what that means, mine is a G502 Proteus Core. just kidding, my G502 is from the first G502 series (2014ish) and still going strong. The perfect mouse for me.

Yeah, I've had the G502 Proteus Spectrum, the G502 Hero (because I broke the Spectrum) and now G502X Lightspeed and damn do I love this thing.

It’s kinda random compared to his remaining collection - that’s what I meant. Personally I’m still on my Proteus Spectrum after almost 10 years, stock except skates, never had issue with clicks or buttons. Never had problems with GHub as well and love its features.

r/MouseReviewG903 feels like a brick. What's the best FPS upgrade?
3 months ago

I went from G502 to G903>g703>g pro super light> G wolves hsk plus lite>keychron m4> Darmoshark M5 air> now currently using the G-Wolves Fenrir asym, for my medium sized hands this mouse is absolutely divine. I still use the m5 air from time to time but the Fenrir is like a glove I've been missing my whole life, I highly recommend the keychron m4 as a budget gateway into fingertip mice

r/MouseReviewI do not understand the hype around fingertip mice

If it helps you with your decision I went from straight up palm gripping the old g502 Proteus core with all the weights in it, to the g903 Proteus spectrum, to the g502 hero, then the g703, keychron m4, Darmoshark m5 air, hsk pro, and finally am currently using the Fenrir Asym 99% of the time, every now and then I switch and use the Darmoshark m5 air because I think it looks bad ass, but the Fenrir asym fits me like a glove

r/G502MasterRaceBest wireless mouse to buy after 10 years of wired G502
11 months ago

Not sure what your role it, but if you have an office role, I highly recommend Logitech MX Master 3!!!! I use this for work and go back to my trusty G502 wired for home/gaming/everything else.

r/LogitechGToday I realized I've been using this mouse for over 18 years

My G502 Proteus Spectrum died the other day after 8 years. Had the G400 for a few years before that. Now upgrading to the G502 X Plus Wireless, hoping quality is still as durable 😅

r/LogitechGFinally ascended from shitty mice with this.

Oh yeah? Well, your 5yr old g502 is shitty compared to my 10 year old g502. ![gif](giphy|CAYVZA5NRb529kKQUc|downsized)

Been using the G502 Proteus Spectrum on my desktop for years. Haven't found anything I like better. I also have a G502 Hero Lightspeed for my laptop.

r/G502MasterRaceG502X Wireless after 31 months of daily uses

Your problem with the proteus is easily manageable. Just use box cutter and VERY CAREFULLY cut the cord's sleeve and strip the cable. Just make sure to not cut too deep and only use the cutter to cut the sleeve and not the actual cable.

Even better, you can just cut the frailing part of the sleeve and then use a lighter to slightly melt the cables back together so that they dont frail anymore
