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.

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.

I previously had a G502 about 10 years ago and since then went to ergo style mice like the Deathadder and a few other brands, the Deathadder will feel great! The v4 is around 50g too so is very light!

Logitech proteus core g502 It's simply the best

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

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
