Logitech G - G502 X LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse

I didn't know about optical switches. I guess that will solve the issue. I was just looking at the G502X Lightspeed, so buttons are all there that I like. I'll definitely look into endgame and the others you suggested though.

I have the # Logitech G502 X Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse - LIGHTFORCE

Is the G502 X Lightspeed base plate swappable? or only the G502 X? Currently I'm leaning mostly to either the G502 X Lightspeed, seeing a lot of mod kits that I like the idea of, or the Glorious Model I.

Seconded!! I have bought several, not because they break but because it's the only mouse I have used and will use since 2009. Originally had the old style wired. Now I have the wireless in white and the millennium falcon edition 😄

They definitely feel a little more solid but probably because I always added the weights to it. I have finally gotten used to the lightweight wireless g502

At work I have the 3d connection nipple, but everything else other than moving around is mapped to my my g502x lightspeed. Copy/paste, move, esc, enter, cut... You name it. I tried CAD mice in another work but it felt so limited for what it positions itself to be... I can map any macro to my logi, but I can only use predetermined commands on the cad mouse? Also, way less buttons and the ergonomy sucked. Love my g502x. Best mouse ever.

i just wait a bit, and get the "used like new" or "refurbished" name brand mouse on eBay for half the price. i have like 4 versions of the G502, including the original Lightspeed, and the G502X lightspeed (nonrgb) and i got all of them under $80/ea. I also got a Glorious Model I2 Wireless for like $65 open box on eBay when it had been out for like a month. it is kinda the best of both worlds. i have used the cheaper mice for sure, and they do the job. i just know what i like now, and get what i want, but for a deal.

Missing the G502 X Lightspeed. I have been using that for almost 2 years now, and it is basically perfect (coming from a long time G502, G Pro, and MX Master user). If Logitech's GHub software wasn't so shit, it would be 10/10.

G502x lightspeed. I've used MMO mice but they are too bulky and I never use all 12 buttons. The g502x has just enough extra buttons for me.

Logitech G502 X Lightspeed (NOT the Plus version). Great successor of the Logitech G502.

I got lucky and got the G502 X lightspeed for £70 All black no rgb, abit lighter than rgb version. Wireless, USB C, no Bluetooth but for me that's ok. Great shape and tons of extra buttons for games and productivity. Only thing I hate is the mouse clicks are a bit loud and the scroll wheel noisy too. It's good enough for my use case.

I’ve been using Logitech G502X Lightspeed for few years now and no complaints. Just a tip: don’t buy a mouse without testing it first. How it fits your hand is the most important thing. All of the decent gaming mice (60+€) perform similarly over a transmitter.

I was skeptical of wireless gaming mice. But I tend to play lower sens in fps and the mouse cord was becoming an issue. Finally took the plunge with the G502 plus X lightspeed and holy hell I’m never boing back to wired. Def look into what could be causing the issue.

Logitech's gaming mice (https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/products/gaming-mice.html) have good macOS support, although Logitech G Hub can be annoying. I use the G 502 X: https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/products/gaming-mice/g502-x-wireless-lightforce.html

Agreed, the x is far too light for me. The 502 hero feels better built and better weight

Probably the g502x lightspeed this mouse has an optical switch, optical scroll wheel encoder

The difference is only the rgb don't get the rgb version for an increased price not worth just for lights.

Yeah screw the rgb lights man it will only just drain the battery life fast. It's better to buy the non rgb version.

Zowie, vaxee, Logitech and razer mice For gaming and work i recommend the cobra pro because of the trimode connection, g502x and keychron m6

Absolutely. Out of more than 10 different mice between 30 and 100€, this was my favorite.

You can try G502 X Lightspeed, its a mouse for productivity as well as gaming, very comfortable to work with and high spec for gaming.

I have had both. I prefer the non-x. It is heavier with the possibility of adding additional weights. The buttons that sits beside the left-click are easier to reach. I found the top one a bit hard to reach. I think the scroll wheels are also different but I don't really remember how. Anyway, here's a [picture ](https://i.imgur.com/9weI3ZT.jpeg)of my hand

The Hero has a wire, correct? I think I've tried that and I like that even more so than my wireless one. Minus the fact that it has a wire of course

G502X lightspeed all the way

Ergonomics wise, and if you don't seem to care too much about esports values, my biggest suggestion would be the G502 X Lightspeed. it's decently light, perfect for productivity and the extra buttons have actually ended up being pretty handy for me. the Razer Basilisk line is also very similar (ergo focused and nearly identical shape) but I've not had any hands on experience with it myself. GPX Superlight 2, Viper V3 Pro and similar mice are all praised on here but they don't sound like what you need at all - i think you'd be paying extra for nothing there. the Deathadder V3 would indeed be ergo but again it's probably higher end than you need. Pick something of good quality, but my suggestion would be that the only feature you should worry about (past the basics of 2.4 wireless, 1000Hz polling, decent sensor and switches that will last) is the shape. that's my opinion anyway

g502x, no ifs about it

I have a 6 year old g502. Started to get the double click (then no click) issue. I took it apart and replaced it with 100M high quality mechanical switches. It was fun to do about if soldering and it works just as good as it did when it was brand new. 10/10 - beat their planned obsolescence

Haha I just finished posting that I replaced my switches on my g502 with high quality 100m click switches and it’s been amazing ever since.

G502 hero light speed wireless. It was like $150 on sale. Ya, I think I’ll get another 5 years out of the replacement switches easy. And I have enough backups to do it again if I need. Takes me about 1.5 hours now that I know what I’m doing.

I've had a 502 Lightspeed for 5 years now, it JUST wore down to the plastic on the thumb this year so build quality and charge hold has been pretty unmatched for me compared to most mice. Will probably be looking at a 502 X LS to replace

My new favorite is the Logitech G502x in white. Fits my hand perfectly and I love the thumb grip texture. I'll be using this model for quite a while.

I'll go against the grain and say: As a normal consumer, this seems pretty nice to me. Powerplay is fantastic, and 68g is perfectly fine. You'd all have said that was great 3 years ago. How much better do you play now that your mouse is 35g with no ergonomics or durability? Anyway, I digress. This mouse looks nice. Most of the mice you guys get excited about look like wish.com imitations of new Razer, old Glorious, and old Logitech mice. This one actually looks unique without being overly "gamer aesthetic". Lastly, the AA batter support is a massive plus. I see that you all don't care for it, but that is perfect futureproofing. Lithium batteries degrade, so when you buy a mouse with a lithium battery, you're buying a mouse with an expiration date. AA battery support ensures you can always use it in the future even once the lithum battery only holds a charge for 20 seconds. Yes it's heavier if you use that, but by that time maybe I'll want a new mouse, and this one will make a great travel mouse for work. Not necessarily trying to argue, just telling you all since you seem incredulous. P.S. I'm not buying it. I love my Powerplay G502X. I need those buttons to take the burden off my keyboard hand.

I've got 2 wireless 502X and they both work flawless for a few years now, its literally the perfect mouse for my taste.

Logitech G502 is one of the most common gaming mice, I've had mine for over a year now and it's great. Goes on sale often and the G502 Hero is currently only $37. It has 2 side buttons plus a DPI switch and 2 additional buttons next to the left mouse button so more than enough for shooters. Also somes with weights so you can make it heavier if you prefer a mouse with a bit more weight.

Everyone is different, some people will need a bigger or smaller mouse and some shapes will fit better into certain peoples hands. I've had my G502 for almost 2 1/2 years now and have never had issues with wrist pain, but that's not to say it couldn't be painful for some people like yourself.

I’ve had a g502 for a little over 2 years now and still no issues with double clicking. I’ve never tried a g305 but I’d imagine they are similar quality as it’s not much cheaper than the g502, if you’ve had multiple of them start double clicking after a few months you’re either very unlucky or not looking after the mouse properly.

If they do eventually wear out on mine, I might consider upgrading to the G502 X Wireless and charging pad, but for £30 it works great for now so I'm in no rush to drop £200 on a mouse and mouse mat.

Idk if you’ll like the style, but I have the g502x with the powerplay mat underneath my desk mat. Really good mouse with programmable buttons and unlimited battery since it wirelessly charges. And the powerplay mat has a wireless transmitter built in so you can keep the one inside the mouse for if you need to take it on the go

I have had the G502 X wireless and it's been a fucking dream

Logitech 502x wireless. Or 502 wireless. You can use both in wired mode. Battery lasts a good amount of time a couple weeks) before you need to charge it. A must have for me is a dpi switch on the mouse, hard to find a mouse that works both in wireless & wired/charging mode and has a dedicated dpi button. Having owned and bought both razer, logitech, and niche micr brands, logitech -> razer -> niche brands. At the end of the day it really isnt about the mouse. It’s your performance

I am for wireless logitech g502x as well! Got it for a long time now, battery lasts really long and i never had any latency issues. I was really skeptical about the latency but there is no noticible difference. I took the one without rgb, for longer battery usage.

I play fps (COD), mmorpg (wow and others), MOBA games and others like survival games. Basically all kinds of games haha. I play with a dpi of 6300. Never had any problems with the sensors. The extra buttons are nice and intuitive. U can customise all buttons, even the DPI button. (The button at the scrolling wheel.) I choose to change that button to use it for games as a function. U can choose to not use it, or learn how to use it for games. I use it by just stretching my middle finger. But i only use that button for wow, for other games the button really is unnecessary.

Agree with this. You can use Solaar to manage your Logitech devices as well. Can also configure the mouse on Windows and then save the settings on the onboard memory and then use on Linux afterwards.

I use the Logitech G502 X the wireless version without RGB It has optical switches

This was me exactly. Had other mice in the past that worked but nothing to write home about. I was needing a new mouse and a friend recommend the G502; found a good deal so I picked it up and fell in love. Upgraded to the wireless version last year and it’s working great for me so far. I actually use the older wired one for my WFH setup currently.

I have the wireless 502 and i f love it. I will buy another when it dies

Razer Deathadder and Logitech 502 are the only wireless I have experience with, they're decent enough though the wireless deathadder has no textured side grips. Your price range is less a choice and more entirely dictated by the ridiculous prices gaming mice have gotten to sadly.

I have/had like 5 mouses of this list and the best one, the one i only use is the logi g502 wireless, is such a beast of a mouse, super ergonomic, good click sensation, is light and fast, only mouse i’ll use forever lol

Well its because is a hell of a mouse, I doubt i will use another one ever

Well honestly, i have never had that issue, i use them a lot, just bind them to other keys, sometimes with macros and work excellent, the only button that i dont use is the one upside

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.

G502x, it's fairly inexpensive and a massive weight reduction from the previous models!

I keep a list of the biggest mice people recommend on here in case something huge for my massive meat paws comes on the market. Some of them are long, some of them are wide, some aren't either but for some reason people still recommend them. Anyway, here's the list, the dimensions are LxWxH and it's ordered by length. Asus Rog Spatha X - 137x89x45 - 168g Microsoft Pro Intellimouse - 132x69x 43 - 109g Mionix Naos Pro - 131x85x39 - 102g Logitech G502 Hero/Lightspeed - 132x75x40 - 121g/114g Logitech G502 X - 131x79x41 - 89g Zowie EC1-DW - 130x69x42 - 63g Darmoshark M3 - 130x66x39 - 58g Keychron M7 - 128x77x44 - 63g Pwnage Stormbreaker Max CF - 128x68x44 - 43g Razer DeathAdder V3 - 128x68x44 - 59g Rawm MH01 - 127x66x40 - 65g Viper V3 Pro - 127x64x40 - 55g Waizowl OGM Cloud - 126x68x38 - 55g Pulsar Xlite V3/V4 Large (size 3) - 126x70x45 - 58g Teevolution Terra - 125x69x43 - 49g Vaxee NP-01 - 120x66x39 - 75g Cooler Master MM720 - 105x77x37 - 49g Also, if you're looking for cheap, Redragon do some decently sized options... Redragon m908/m913 - 123x92x42 - 117g/128g (not very long but very wide). Happy mouse hunting! Edit: Updated with those in this thread.

A different option might be the Kysona Uranus mouse. Or something like a Glorious D2 pro. A lighter weight mouse with an extra button by the scroll wheel is what I’m getting at. The g502x is a fine mouse but it’s going to be much different. I would suggest pairing it with a speed pad like the QCK Speed or the LGG Neptune Pro. I just got in the QCK Speed the other day. Still testing but it’s ok. I think the overall quality of the Neptune Pro is better. QCK is cheaper though and sold at Amazon and Best Buy.

decent enough, pretty heavy compared to most comp mice though. I'd only get it if you really like the shape. You can get good 30 dollar mice from china at 50\~ grams, but with shapes closer to the viper mini or regular.

MX Master 3S for basically everything. G903 Lightspeed for FPS. But, nothing wrong with buying G502X if you're already super comfortable with G502. Personally, I probably will never get out of Logitech. Just too used with the software already and nothing compare to my MX Master. Used the series since 2S

G502x is my personal favorite

Have you tried the G502X? I tested a bunch of mice as I couldn’t decide, and found the G502 was my favorite. Went to purchase it and the G502X was on display. It is a very nice upgrade in quality and feels just as good (if not better, I purchased the G502X) as the base model.

I use a G915 keyboard and a G502X mouse. Both are solid!

100% agree. It's baffling to me that there are dozens of lightweight mice that all seem to be tripping over each other to compete for the same market share. The G502X variants, Aerox 5, and Model I2 are the only "modern" mice that come to mind with 4-5 side-buttons, and they all have at least one major flaw (i.e., heavy or wired, weird paddle thing, Glorious, in that order). A superlight G502 would absolutely be killer in the space.

KP is great (possibly my favourite shape currently), but I wouldn't say it has a thumb rest. Could just be semantics, but for me the G502x has a thumb rest, because it extends away from the base of the mouse. KP has more of a pronounced thumb groove. Otherwise, I agree that the mains are maybe the most disappointing part of the KP. They are usable, but I wouldn't say they are a joy to use. They are okay. Regular TTC Gold Dustproofs would feel nicer.

I just keep going with g502, swapped to g502x myself last. Also, keep in mind that you can RMA a mouse once before buying another, cause the wear and teae is a manufacturing problem all companies have. Well more like planned obsolescence.

"Return merchandise authorization". It just means, manufacturer agreed to take the device back, usually in return for a free replacement. Logitech has been a great experience for me, hence my staying with g502 since 2015 and returning each mouse once before buying a new one. They make a lot of money making sure we're lifelong customers, by replacing defective devices for free, one time each.

Buy the g502x guys . That g402 can scroll button tillt left and right as another swich like the g502 ?

502x light and nice

That's the reason I bought a G502 X even though I got a Viper v3. While you don't need extra buttons on tactical fps like CS, it's literally the exception since most other genres of game do benefit from extra mouses buttons. Even arena shooters do. I'm not asking for Naga clones with 12 side buttons, but I wish we had more high-end options of mouses with 3-4 side buttons instead of 2. It's honestly the perfect middle ground, and contrary to what people think, 2 more side buttons wouldn't make the mouse much heavier.

G502 or G502x That’s all.

G502 or G502x That’s all.

I liked my G502 for the extra buttons in Warframe. There’s the new X variant if you want to stick with it. I’m currently using a Viper V3 Pro as my main and absolutely love it. I do wish it had an extra thumb button though.

Literally too heavy and causes me wrist pain lmao. I realize how much a bitch that makes me sound like. I bought a 502x as like a "let's see" and it was immediately giving me wrist pain. Wish I still liked it cause I want more mouse buttons

I primarily used a Logitech G502. I recently upgraded it to the G502X, which had some really elegant improvements. I use it as both my gaming and work mouse. I hear a lot of folks talking about the Scimitar, so I bought it to try it out. A few things I noticed about the Scimitar, when comparing it to the G502X: * The Scimitar is heavy. This comes down to user preference, but I personally prefer lighter mice. * It does not glide as well as the G502X. I'm not sure if the pads on the Scimitar are just poor quality, or if its the weight of the mouse, but there is noticeable resistance compared to the G502X. * The scroll wheel on the Scimitar is too shallow -- I feel it should rise up above the buttons a bit more. Also, there is no left/right click on the Scimitar's scroll wheel. These work as amazing keybinds on the G502X. * The Scimitar has no quick/infinite scroll functionality. In comparison, the G502X has a little button you quickly toggle which locks/unlocks the scroll wheel, allowing your to freely/rapidly scroll. This is a massive time save when scrolling long websites, documents, etc. * The bottom row of buttons on the Scimitar, notably buttons 1 and 4, are way too close to the base of the mouse. There is only a few millimeters of space between the base of the mouse, meaning your finger is almost always dragging on your mouse pad. It feels uncomfortable hitting them. I like that the button pad can move forwards and backwards, but it needs to be higher up. * The finger rest on the Scimitar is on the right side, and acts as a rest for your ring finger. I feel this is a useless finger rest. By comparison, the G502X features a thumb rest which feels so much better. Ultimately, I think the G502X is a better mouse all around. It functions as a better productivity mouse, as the side buttons make for easy back/forth navigation, and the infinite scroll wheel makes short work of long documents. Its also fantastic outside of MMO's, especially FPS games because of its trigger button, which slows your DPS while you hold it. This is amazing for achieving better accuracy while sniping and such. For MMO's the G502X has 8 programmable keybinds (3 side buttons, 2 index finger buttons, 3 scroll wheel clicks). In my opinion, these feel so much more natural compared to the Scimitar square number pad, and when you combine that with modifiers like Shift, you now very easy and comfortable access to 16 keybinds, all on your mouse. Plus, while it ultimately isn't that important, its also worth mentioning that the Logitech software is significantly nicer and easier to use compared to Corsair's. If I may be so bold, I would argue that the G502X is the worlds best mouse, hands down.

Yeah the latest version solved the 2 biggest complaints people have to the original G502 and G502 Hero. That being its heavy and has a switch that gets double click at a relatively low usage endurance. The new one is ~30% lighter and uses optical switches.

Been burned by both, but Razer has been better lately compared to Logitech for me. I love the Superlight 2, but the mousewheel click on mine doesn't actuate on the click, it actuates a little lower than that. The G502X's mousewheel died on me. Meanwhile, I have a Basilisk V3 Pro that's staying strong, but I just got a Pulsar Xlite V3 on Sunday that I'm trying out.

I've bought two of these. The first was my main gaming and work mouse. It got a lot of use in 3-4 years, I bought another when it got worn out. Now I have a G502X for gaming at home and bring my G305 to work. I've recommended the G305 to friends looking for their first gaming mouse or as a great work mouse. Honestly I'll probably pick up another G305 replacement at some point for work.

I got a G502X specifically because of the new switches that can't double click. Naturally, now the function buttons are double clicking since they only used the optical switches for the main buttons.

i got it and im really happy with it so far it a bit heavier but only like 4 grams feels nice in my hand the other mouse was a bit too small only 60 euros

Yeahhhh I picked up an mx master when I was mouse shopping last year, replacing a g502. I loved the shape and the mouse wheel but as soon as I got it set up and tried to use.. "why the FUCK is my cursor skipping pixels??" Like the thing had grid-snapping enabled. I can't believe people use that thing for office work, I could barely pick options from a dropdown with it. Tried fiddling with DPI settings but was still unusable. Returned and got a 502x, it works the way I expected it to...

I am loving my G502x... 3 weekend now and prefer it over my adders and logi pro series mice..

I literally just bought the G502X today and I really like it so far. I’ve never owned a Logitech mouse but didn’t want to get another Razer mouse and the Basilisk V3 was the other one I was considering. I probably would’ve gotten the Lightspeed, if i wanted a wireless mouse though.

I use the Logitech G502 X with the SteerMouse driver.

i use it just fine and my hands are tiny, its a little heavy but it does the job just fine

The shape of the G502X isn't quite the same and it's like double the weight of the ones on here.

G502 X and a Razer Orbweaver.

This one. Especially for fps gaming. It has two extra mouse buttons on the left click that I use for pinging and reloading. Theres also an extra thumb button for a dynamic dpi meaning you can push a button and make it more or less sensitive. Theres also a special usb cord that plugs into the blue tooth reciever. This makes sure there is no interference between your mouses blue tooth and any other device. Probably helps with latency which there are no latency issues with that cord.

G502x

This is my variant

G502X all the way. If you have any PC hardware stores around you, visit them and see if you can get your hands on it.. look and see how it feels before purchasing

If you like the G502, get another one. Get the G502 X for optical switches that aren't going to develop double clicking issues. There's similar mice from other brands as well, like a Razer Basilisk.

I didn't like the hump of the MX master compared to the G502 X. Try them both out in your hand

If he's not competitively gaming a g502x could be comfortable for work and casual games

Thanks everyone on suggestions At the end we went for / opted for LOGITECH G502 X, against all my previous bad experiences with Logitech equipment for the past 15 years. Piper software gave me a new hope for Logitech hardware ( since there there is no Microsoft software in my house). All I can say, if Logitech board of directors have few ounces of gray matter left between their ears, they would contact Piper developers immediately and offer them cooperation. Just to prove that I'm not speaking out of my ass here is my previous experience wit Logitech hardware (I will not mention Linux software since it is non existent): Last Logitech what I consider good piece of equipment was MX518 (still working) and G35 Headphones (still working, although 10 years later, I rolled with my chair over them and broke left headphone mount) . Rest of Logitech equipment I bought, did not last more then 2 years of moderate use: In 2007 I bought G15 (v1) keyboard - erased letters from keys after 10 months - asked for warranty, did not approved. Bought G413 (with "famous" Romer G switches, 14 months later Space key and "H" key, started to register several key presses in one press. Of course, out of warranty by that time. Bought Logitech G635 - year and half later USB connector, on headset side, start to lose connection, of course out of warranty. Bought Logitech X pro headphones, cushions peeled completely after one year and 3.5mm connector to USB sound card broke. Bought Logitech X52 HOTAS for my son (based on my experience with Saitek X52, which is still working btw.) yaw axis broke after year or so of use. You guessed it, out of warranty. God I hope, that their Quality of Control has changed in recent years.

logitech g502 x or any of those I guess. has 5 side buttons (two side buttons, one "sniper button", two buttons next to left click), all programmable with logitechs G Hub software

I also had wired G502 since 2014 until very recently and bought G502X plus 2 weeks ago. I am overall very happy with it, if you switch off the rgb battery is incredible, build quality is nice. Only think I dislike is that the “redo” button is somewhat uncomfortable compared to old g502 and I use it a lot and have it bound for some ingame actions.

I had the Razer Naga with 12 side buttons for many years. It was great until eventually it wasn’t possible to fix the double click anymore. For a couple of years after I had a cheap copy of it, which was okay but not quite as good. It did the job. Currently I’m using a G502 X, because I don’t play much and it was half the price of a Naga Pro. It’s a great mouse, but I do still miss the 12 side buttons and how simple it was to use.

I have the G502X and I love it. The seamless scroll makes zip jumps and parkouring much easier

Check out the Logitech G series, I have the G502 X and have been loving it. I've seen posts about these mice lasting longer than some presidencies. There a good variety to choose from and they all have some form of customizability with the software.

I’m a Logitech mouse user because I have my power play mat. I recently upgraded my old g502 hero to g502x and I like how now you replace one of the thumb buttons to be normal and flat when you’re not using it. It’s magnetic so it’s easy to swap out whenever you want.

I swapped from g502 to G502 X, and those are so much easier to press on X because they are bigger.

I LOVE my logitech G502X

Well it’s just everyone hands are different, if you have smaller hands or I think like ENDGAME mouses and really good, maybe for regular sized hands or for the avg consumer maybe a super light or a razer V3 pro or hell maybe even a WL beast X mouse, if you have bigger hands definitely go for the G502 X it’s a really good mouse for tarkov with all the buttons and not being a MOBA mouse. Those are just my suggestions, also zowie has some good ones but I think they are a bit behind 

It does have teflon feet...

Yes it does rofl. It’s dyed black that’s all.

I also prefer the non-x. I got a G502X when my last 502 gave out, and honestly I'm not a huge fan of it. I'm going back to a 502 hero when it dies.

I've used the Logitech G502 for years, and I swear by it. Three thumb buttons plus two next to the LMB, so not quite a full-on "MMO mouse", but I find it's enough, and I've struggled with actual MMO mice being uncomfortable to use.

Hah, yeah good point. My current one is indeed a G502 X too.

They started using optical switches 1 or 2 years ago when they released their new g502 x. They claim it fixes the double-click issues, but it's too early to make any definitive conclusions.

I haven’t used the 305 but I have a 502x that’s awesome, though I’ve only had it a year or so, ymmv Edit: mouse only, wasn’t thinking g about he keyboard part.

I just bought the g502x and can't fault it. I was pretty set in my ways using some steelseries mouse, then tried to upgrade to the razer death adder for the extra button. I plugged all three mice in and the g502x won out. It just feels so nice in hand

Something to note the g502x is significantly lighter than a g502 even without the weights. I have owned both and the normal g502 really is a great mouse. The only reason I replaced it was for the weight. That thing survived when I had a G413 keyboard and I used to flick into the metal and somehow it survived. The area in front of where your thumb goes is cut and scratched really bad but still works. My only experience with razer products were their headphones I had an Electra V2 and they broke in less than a year. For a mouse review one of my friends had got his razer mouse (idk which one) like a year ago and it's starting to double click already.

Yeah i taught that maybe the polling rate is the problem but i tested with my own mouse set to 650 polling rate 1k polling rate and 4k but its the same shit. Then i asked a friend to use his viper v3 pro. No difference. I got the 502 x and i works fine on 1k polling rate with no stutters or lags or input delay but the mouse is just not for me.

Yeah thats the weird part if i plug my mouse with a usb c cable to my computer it stutters and lags but when i put my g502 x with the inbuild cable its smooth. I dont have any other real wired mouse comparison except some fuckass wired office mouse wich also works smooth.

The new G502X is worth looking at, much lighter than the old G502, fixed the double click issues and the scroll wheel is plastic and rubber.

G502x. It has the new switches which allegedly last a lot longer. If you get a g502 lightspeed, invest in a new pcb with replacement switches so you are ready

Logitech g502. If you get the G502 Hero its under $50 typically. Excellent mouse. If you wanna spend a bit more you can get the G502 X for the higher end version. Excellent mouse, looks good, very comfortable, solid amount of buttons. I own 2 - one for my desktop and one for on the go.

I'm using the G502X one and i personally can only recommend it, you also technically have3 buttons you can assign on the side. I use them mainly for dashes/Abilites i need to use during movement. Personally it's a-ok for FF and keybinds have not been an issue on any job in every type of content for me

You should look into logitech G502 and Razer Basilisk.

I really enjoy my Razer Basilisk V3 Pro (white) for my gaming setup - I appreciate RGB, and this mouse delivers a cool under-glow. I do however, use a G502 as my productivity mouse at the office - It has a lot of buttons, which I've set to do various things relevant to the programs I use at work. Edit: The G502 Hero (wired) is significantly cheaper, if that's a concern :)

I would suggest Logitech G502 Lightspeed / G502 X. They have three side buttons, with an additional two extra buttons for your index finger (on the left click). It's an ergonimic mouse, roughly sized for medium hands.

G502x, optical switches so it won t double click and one of the comfiest mouse ive ever used

The Logitech G502 and its variants.

Indeed. I second the G502 X.

I've been liking that mouse a lot, perfect middle between an MMO mouse and regular one, it's got normal mouse weight and a bunch of side buttons (at least for me, I'm fine with 5/6 side buttons), MMO mouses tend to be super heavy, making it awkward to use for other games like shooters.

Can confirm, have only been using g502 hero's and will only use g502 heros. Not the g502 X though, I'll never understand why the changed the design. I just want a g502 with good quality switches and USB C.

I like the x more then the non-x at this point. but I also went from LS to LS so I haven't used a cable in years to judge on that part

I think the G502 X looks pretty classy. MSRP is out of your budget, but it goes on sale within your budget. Just got one for $90 on sale the other day.

From those I'd say the superlight. Then the Hitscan. I like the g502x shape the best though, it's slightly better than the g502 hero. Never liked those low back profile, I realize it's to decrease weight and volume but those shouldn't be compensated for the feel of the mouse.

Just bought the 915x lightspeed and g502x Am pretty satisfied. Especially for the dpi thumb-button... Can change dpi temporarily when sniping. Also the buttons next to the m1 are supreme... The only downside is that I got black charging puck (powerplay) for white gaming mouse, haha.

The g502 is great but the switches wear out so fast. G502 x fixes this finally with light switches.

From what I've seen over the years, none exist that you describe/request. The few mice known with more than 2 side buttons are the Glorious Model I series (don't recommend ever), Logitech's G502/502X series and the Razer Basilisk series (don't recommend for competitive gamers), and the Steelseries Aerox 5 and 9 series (also dont recommend for competitive gamers). There's other mice that can be considered from the likes of Corsair, Asus and Logitech but they're all extremely outdated and haven't really been in relevance since the mid 2010s at the latest.

G502s double clicking issues rnt that bad compared to G203

I feel like Logitech doesn't do shit these days because they're just too successful. People are STILL buying the OG GPX and G502 for retail prices, so why should they bother putting in the work? They'll prob release something good once sales drop off

the double click is a 50-50, my g502 and g402 lasted for 4-5 years and i didn't get double click issues in both of them

Solaar is application to manage Logitech mice. https://github.com/pwr-Solaar/Solaar Piper is a frontend for libratbag. https://github.com/libratbag/piper Libratbag has a list of devices from Asus, Logitech, Glorious, Steelseries and more. https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag/tree/master/data/devices I personally use a Logitech G502 that had on-board memory from when I customized it on Windows. Solaar seemed to work well.

Don't trust this list. I had the following mice Logitech 502 - Heavy, outdated Naga/Scimitar - Only useful if you want the extra buttons, wireless vesions mucho expensive Deathadder essential - Bought 2 of them since they were only 20 euro on sale, both mouse wheels stopped working and started scrolling randomly Razer Deathadder V3 Pro - Has creaking issue on the left side of the mouse and problems with coating - issues fixed in the wired version that came later Basilisk V3 - Heavy but just a bit better than the 502 MX Master 3 - SUPER HEAVY, more of a work mouse than gaming I finally settled on a Deathadder 3 wired with a bungee, quite satisfied. I would recommend it, the Hyper x Pulsfire haste 2, or some of the new mice that came out that aren't "tried and tested", as counter - intuative as that sounds.

Logi g502 fanboy here while I think there is similar or even better ones out there, Iam so used to the shape and the infinite scroll wheel I will always buy this model. Seems like this mouse is like the what MS Intellimouse was in the late 90's and naughties, even tho it wasnt the best mouse ppl dint liked to change until MS stopped producing it. Owning mice is like a cult, there is trends to follow before was weighted mice now its as light as possible. owning the most obscure brand recommended by some influencer is a must Logitech software is bad but not obligatory, there is a utility that saves all the changes to memory and doesnt use resouces when closed like any decent program

Most ppl like the 502 for its shape and infinite scroll wheel. I do like it for this reasons I have 2 wired and bought a wireless one immediately when launched. Is there better sensors? Better switches? Better priced, Better software this one obviously, yes but iam so used to this shape it feels natural to me. At this point is preference most mice are so identically in functions and performance that is splitting hairs.

Logitech g502. You can turn off the RGB, and even if you leave it on, it's literally sulper minimal and just the blue Logitech logo.

I have a G502 and my only issue is that for the two buttons on the top, it's almost impossible to hit just one at a time.

It’s all subjective but I’ve always loved the G502 for gaming and the MX Master for productivity.

Logitech G502 + Mac Mouse Fix (solves reverse scroll on mouse and other mouse tweaks)

Had the G502 for some time too, but it was too small and cramped for my hands. And the weight is way too much even for work. I'm generally more a keyboard guy, so a mouse needs not additional buttons for me. Found my type in the EC1 shape. The free scroll is great - though the wheel was slightly off-center on my copy and others I've seen which bothered me a bit...

Generally mice that are more open. The G502 and Basilisk thumb area is a bit cramped. I don't have thick fingers, but long ones and my thumbs are a bit wider at the tips than on most people. The EC1 shape is good for working because it's super relaxed. But I aim better with the FK1 XL shape, Viper and similar works great too - less comfortable though.

Just do yourself a favor and buy a Logitech G502. Wired or wireless, your choice. I've had both for years and have never had issues with them at all.

G502. I bought it in 2019 and by may 2024 I had to buy another.

It's a nice mouse - one I'm currently using - but the side grips are dirt and grime magnets and not that easy to clean out.

Cool but not the best, if some needed a good overall mouse, I would recommend the gpx 2 or a similar shape bc that's just a good shape, the g502 is kinda outdated and bulky, especially for gaming.

If you're in a office space or play mobas then yeah you should prob chose the g502.

502 is a big mouse, but maybe you want something where the hump is a little taller and more so in the middle. Ec1-dw or Xlite large v3 or 4, ec1 will be slightly taller and more forward and the xlite is similar but a good amount taller. Keep an eye on that Razer vertical mouse they announced maybe. Eloshapes to help compare

I've had my g502 for.... well shoot Im not even sure how long. It's been through 3 pc builds so I've had it for possibly almost 10 years. That's crazy now that I'm thinking about it. I've also had my Razer Black Widow Elite for 7 or 8 years. So I suppose consider those 2 endorsed. I did not realize how long I've been using my peripherals.

Any reason to get this considering the only two logitech products I ever purchased failed at the 1 year mark with the mouse (proteues G502) having the scroll wheel crack first then the side buttons. I live too far for the warranty to make any kind of difference for me.

I have the g502, thers an app called piper which supports my mouse I can customize everything which is offered by the Logitech app in windows Heres a list of supported mouses by piper, I'm pretty sure there's plenty other applications like this but this is what I use https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag/tree/master/data/devices

Just my two cents but when I first got into PC gaming this was one of the first mice I tried. I just didn’t like the feel of it. So I got a Logitech G502 instead and it was a much better fit. Have you tried that? It’s heavy and has a sniper button as well

Logitech g502! Customizable weight, extra buttons are actually *ergonomic* instead that weird grid formation, and on board memory to change Keybinds for different games. Bought mine for \~$40 and it's lasted for 4 years so far.

Sheeesh. I use the g502 as well but I took all the weights out. Your arm must be shredded 💪🏼

Yeah everyone complains about g502 double clicking but i do literally abuse the mouse and it does not double click. Had it for 3 years at this point it will die eventually but it still looks like day 1 after a wet wipe 😂

Never found the appeal of mmo mice, but my all time favorite mouse is the razer deathadder, because the shape of it is just perfect for my hand. And I get two keybinds on the side. Not very durable though, I think I’m on my 4th deathadder, but that’s over a decade timespan. A few years ago I did for a small period of time try a logitech g502, I didn’t really like it. But that’s personal taste, I will use a deathadder till the end of times, perfect size/shape/ergonomics for me anyway.

I got to diamond in Siege using my G502. It’s a gaming mouse

Logitech G500 shape is great for my mainly palm grip, having owned since 2009, I'm having to sadly replace mine. I tried the G502 a few years ago and HATED how flat and small at the front it felt, and I don't have that big hands.

Currently using a logitech g502 and a razer viper on laptop and desktop respectively. Both are great mice. I think the razer naga hex (v1) was my favourite mouse historically though i got it around the start of GW2 and it was just very well suited to that game. I had the naga hex v2 after that and it was also great. (preferred the v1 slightly)

I’d recommend a vertical mouse (Keychron M5 — the dual-scrolls will be useful) or, if you’re up for it, a trackball like the Ploopy Classic. I haven’t done architecture but I did a lot of 3D work and some basic CAD and the trackball excelled, especially if you customized the QMK config to your workflow. I think the extra buttons on the g502 won’t be that useful since you’re going to be using hotkeys with your keyboard hand and it would be slower to switch modalities with your index finger as well as click, let alone drag with one of those extra index buttons. It is a comfy mouse for lazy internet browsing and it can be cool for specific games, but you can get two specialized mice for your budget/the cost of the g502.

> When my G600 finally dies, I need a mousewheel that has tilt buttons It doesn't have as many side buttons, I prefer mice with only a few, but the Logitech G502 has a 4-way scroll wheel. I've used this mouse for a long damn time, they've made a few new versions so hopefully they're not going to discontinue it any time soon. But I bought some spares anyway, just in case.

Other than getting sticky, I like the G502

I'm a Logitech MX Ergo Trackball kinda guy. Casual use only. I game with the Logitech G502.

I’ve been using the g502 for a decade, great mouse.

I've been using the logitech G502 for years. Its got enough side buttons for me, but I use a ton of shift keybinds on my keyboard. Definitely solid, decent lighting if that's your thing. I generally replace about every 2.5 to 3 years of daily use.

It depends what games you’re playing but I think a really safe option is the g502 as you mentioned, you should be able to pick them up for a pretty good price too. -the programmable buttons give you good flexibility for CAD and whatever other tasks you might do for architecture and it is also super comfy, if you play fps it mightn’t be suitable and there’d need to be alot more information provided, hand size, grip etc

Honestly I used the g502 and it was really comfortable but if it’s specifically for comfort you might like a vertical ergo mouse more, but I haven’t personally used one before so I can’t recommend

as someone on the 502 I miss the 600 and just wish they did a powerplay compatible wireless g600 and get their heads out of their asses

By not wasting money on a muse. Iv bought all kinds of $100 mouses... Mice? And the tried and true Logitech G502 is just as good as a fraction of the price. 

r/G502MasterRace

I've had two G502's, both started having unwanted double click issues after just a year of use. Switched to Razer Basilisk and it's now my favorite mouse after the Logitech MX518 which is no longer being manufactured.

Logitech G502 is the only mouse I’ve ever used and I refuse to even think about using another one, it’s that good. The amount of extra buttons it has compared to everyone else allows me to map abilities and grenades and all kinds of stuff to my mouse.

I like the g502 because I can make macros with the extra buttons

I love my new Logitech G703 for claw grip. I tried G502 and G903 but G703 is obviously the superior choice for my style of grip. It's a pretty boring slab of plastic if you switch off the RGB that just looks like "a mouse" tbh if you know what I mean

I have this exact grip pretty much but with slightly bigger hands please let me know which mouse works out for you! For me the thorn I've used the most but the mouse felt so like high up idk how to explain it. I recently had the pulsar x3 mini which felt really nice but didn't get to use it too much and see if it keeps feeling nice, due to the clicks feeling really bad. My first mouse was the g502 so I think it may be due to that mouse my grip turned out like this XD.

Yeah! I am saying it might be due to the g502 your grip changed to the current grip! But yeah I know the feeling I have been looking at the VAXEE np-01 v2 to try to see if it might be good for me.

Look at how popular g502 is every year

Well the 502 is really heavy, has terrible logitech bloatware and (like your personal experience, and other infamous double click issues) breaks easily. So they could improve on that. For the same or similar money you can get much lighter and wireless options from Glorious, Endgame Gear, or other mentioned brands.

1.98m with large hands, I use the same mouse.

The G305 was my first mouse I loved, I’ve since upgraded to the G502 and it’s even better.

I just use a logitech G502. Has enough extra buttons without putting all of them on your thumb, and is generally just a solid mouse all around for any game.

the g502 is specically right handed, but I know logitech also has some other mice that are ambidextrous like the g903, but the buttons aren't in as good spots imo

My g502 middle click is not always responding but I just use another mouse button (the one on the left side) as my middle click and it’s so much better honestly

it for sure is more difficult to design a pcb, shell, R&D, etc. also, adding more buttons, larger pcb, larger shell, adds more weight. however, there is a major market for more variation. if a company wants to take a chance, thats on them. Though its impossible to ignore that the mice market has been DOMINATED by the g502, and its not for the scrollwheel or the weight... if a company came out with a light weight 4-5 button model in the 60g range, I think it would drastically take a chuck out of that market share. however companies like Razer and Logi have their 4-5 button models, and they already sell like crazy, so we cant look to them, even though they would be the ones with the marketing budget to make a massive wave with a move like that

Thing is a brick, shape is nice.. shame they don't make a g502 superlight. After using light weight mice it's hard to go back to that weight.

This is fantastic advice. I have a Logitech g502 and I use the ability to switch between free wheel and click on the mouse wheel constantly for SC.

You did not just recommend a g502 for counterstrike

Its a decent mmo mouse cuz of all the reprogrammable buttons. but a large 120 gramm mouse just isnt fit for fast paced fps gameplay

I used this one for 5+ years, but I'd recommend a lighter mouse with no cable like the g305. My general ux recommendation is to avoid using mouse4/5 as in-game binds, so all these extra buttons should be irrelevant for dota.

Most likely the mouse wheel is without support on one side or with a broken support. G502 is quite big mouse for Your 19 cm hand. If You really like Logitech - then watch on G Pro X Superlight-2 (or Superlight2 DEX). From other good mouses I would recommend 1. Razer Viper V3 Pro 2. Razer Deathadder V3 Pro, 3. Asus ROG Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition. From Chinese mouses You can request ATK X1 Ultimate (version with 8K Dongle which sometimes goes as present to other versions of this mouse) - I've heard already a lot of good references about this mouse. All above will fit Your hand.

I'd honestly just buy another G502, I've also used mine for well over 3 years now and I wouldn't want to switch to anything else.

Cancel the order if you can and get something lighter. It's not a great mouse. It's good but it's not great. You can do so much better.

Same, just not the right shape. My hand cramps up like crazy. I love the big chonky mice. I use the Logi MX master for work and Corsair M65 for gaming. Edit: I guess I had the G502, but still made my hand hurt like crazy

"Look for r/mousereview there is plenty of mouses to pick." Here is was, perfectly happy with my aging G502 I picked up on black Friday deal nearly a decade ago, blissfully unaware there were exotic mice. I don't know on what yet but you just cost me money, and it's all your fault, not mine. You should be ashamed of yourself!

I’ve used this mouse for the past 5 years and I do hit dpi up accidentally sometimes, but not often

G502👌👌👌👌

I've been using the G502 since it came out in 2014. Great mouse.

Soldering skills - that's what I obtain because of mmo mouse. Really nice hobby. And now I have 2 g600, 1 g502 and one Razer naga pro v1 in restored and fully functional condition. For Logitech it was double clicks. For Razer is was scroll wheel issue. Spare parts, from Chinese brothers, serve good job inside old warriors. Love and peace for u folks

Cheap? G502. Quality? G pro x super light

i agree! "mmo" mouses are also good for productivity! I had the MadCatz MMO7. I could assign a ridiculous amount of buttons to that thing not just for MMO's, Mobas and gaming but for photoshop and various CAD software. I use a Logitech G502 and its fiiiiiine but i really really miss the directional button on that mmo7 mouse and also a button where my ring finger sits on the right side of my mouse.

Hey op, I'm a stroke gamer (wierd calling like that lol) myself. Been using mouse with loads button for gaming as well since 2017. Logitech g502 is my first gaming mouse I use, works great for cod and few shooter but abit limited, button wise. I also tried logi g604 too but don't like. The side button abit too hard to get use it for me Currently I use evga x15. So far the best mouse for me. 20 buttons and you can customise everything with 5 profile in their evga app. I beat wukong entirely using this mouse and heck the first game I unlocked all achievement in steam too xD Negative side it's quite heavy but I'm used to it now so no biggie. Also i do have pedals aswell, another extra 3 button for gaming lol

G502, I’ve had mine for around a decade with minimal issues.

Best MMO Mouse, Logitech g502. It doesn't have all the side buttons, just 3 side, and two top buttons next to the left click. It's fully programable, and you can make macros as well. After that Razer Basilisk, similar design to the g502, not as many buttons. The kicker is I use a Keypad controller in my left hand. currently a Razer Tartarus Pro. There is one I am really interested in getting though: # Azeron Cyro

Same here. I have all of the MMO mice in my closet, I hate them. They are too tall and uncomfortable. I also play a wide variety of games and the G502 works for everything.

The great, the one, the chosen, g502

I am currently using the G502 with the 80HE, but I used it even before I got this keyboard

The g502 is circle jerked on reddit but that doesn't make it a good mouse

Logitech G703. Perfect mouse alongside the G502.

I had the wired for about 2 years, then upgraded to wireless. After around 2 weeks the middle click button was pretty unresponsive, good thing it stopped working within return period. The replacement they sent just finished its first year and hopefully many more years of camera grip abuse.

G502 because it has a button to let the scroll wheel free wheel. That's saying enough

Yup I gotta agree - the MX Master is too heavy and slow polling rate for gaming. Also enjoy the MX Vertical for office work and general browsing (keeps your wrist from hurting). I love the g305, and eventually got a G Pro Superlight refurb - they're both simple, super light, and they just work. The g502 is a good option as well, but is heavier and has a "gamer" style... Although it's fairly tasteful IMO.

Using G502 on my gaming system at home and my work computer at the office.

When a few friends of mine switched to light mice, chiefly the Logitech GPX, and were swooning for them, I gave it a try and got caught up in the hype. I had very happily used my Roccat Kone Aimo for years, but a weight of 130g really wasn't cutting it and I saw my aim suffer in quick flicks. After quite a bit of research (shoutout to eloshapes!) I decided to go with the Roccat Kone Pro. It was clear right from the start that I wanted a similarly large ergo mouse with a thumb rest for comfort. Not many options in that category tbh, but I'm really happy with the choice I made. Also tried the Glorious Model I 2 and the Logitech G502, but the Kone Pro just fit into my hand better. So then, what is it like? It's great! The weight (66g) is a massive difference and the classic kone shape still fits really well. Movements feel effortless and very comfortable and controlled. It's a bit smaller than the Kone Aimo and therefore a bit too small for my usual palm grip, but that's fine. The weight makes up for it so that I don't need that much support, being able to switch to a palm/claw "hybrid". The scroll wheel is awesome. The only issue I have is with the mouse buttons which feel a bit mushy for desktop use, but in games when you're locked in you don't notice at all. In contrast to the Aimo the buttons are individually mounted and not integrated into the main body cover, so I think that's what makes them feel a bit less stable. Overall the build quality is acceptable but nothing extraordinary I'd say, but I never expected the thickest hard plastics in a light mouse where weight is the priority, and in games you don't ever notice it at all. The plastic still feels solid. Objectively the only issue is a bit of rattling when you set it down. It might be a small step backwards in feeling of quality for desktop use, but it's a massive improvement in reaction speed in game and comfort over long periods of time for both games and desktop use. I'm running it at 1000 Hz and 2000 DPI, same as the Aimo. However, with the more effortless movement I was able to reduce ingame sensitivity by about half, which improved my feeling for the crosshair immensely (CS2: 0.5 sens > 1000 eDPI). And with that I can only recommend this mouse. Didn't see many reviews for it here, or people posting about using it, so I thought I'd chime in. Its differentiating mark is definitely the shape, and I strongly recommend that everybody try an ergo mouse with a thumb rest. It's very comfortable for normal to long fingers and over long periods of time. There are also some pictures for reference (yes, I'll also get a new mousepad...).

Totally agree, the aimo and g502 have far more pronounced thumb rests. If eloshapes hadn’t classified the kone pro as having a thumb rest I wouldn’t even have considered it. But now that I have it in my hands it’s more than enough. You don’t need to grip the mouse that hard because it’s so light, guess that makes the thumb rest less necessary.

It always felt too narrow.

r/G502masterrace

Do you mean something like the G-Shift key that the g502 has?

I’ve been using a g502 since I built my pc like 8 years ago. It’s perfect

G502 fits my meat mallets.

Its not. its becouse its cheap and the unwashed masses buy them

Was in a similar situation, ended up with the g502 for the side burtons and the buttons on the left mouse click for sensitivity can be rebound and are a blast to use.

I must have used damn near every iteration of the G502 by this point, I love it that much. First iteration suffered a fall that broke the scroll wheel. Subsequent generations before the current one had the notorious double clicking issue occur after 2 years or so The latest one uses laser activated switches. Response times aside (I'm not sensitive enough to tell the difference), I'm optimistic the laser switches will last longer.

The answer is always Logitech for mice. Which model? G502 series has lots of buttons and good mapping software. And the important free spinning wheel.

I have a G502 and it randomly jumps spasms around all over the place in game or desktop for a one or two random seconds and it is so frustrating I’ve tried everything to fix it and it still does it - what the hell is happening and how the hell do I fix it?

I used my G502 for years and I loved it because I was learning MnK, the buttons really helped me quite a lot but over time I used less and less buttons. Now I just usually bind my melee button in most shooters and the other button I might pick some kind of game specific action but most of the time I leave it blank.

G502 or G903, free spinning mouse wheel is life

Logitech dropped a few insane shapes in a row (G502, OG GPro, G403, GPW) then refused to update two of them and only slightly upgraded the other two.

Logitech g502 or lightspeed. I wouldnt go with razer as i went through like 5 deathadders, and all of them developed a double click problem (i play alot of games that require alot of clicking). Had the logitech lightspeed for some time now and its been solid.

Depends on the grip type. I have 21cm hand and can fingertip g502 to small mouse. For claw the Sora is perfect for me. But yeah I can't palm anything.

g502 >>>>

I suppose only users with small hands recommend G502. This moise is so small and light that it is terrible. I need heavy and big mouses. I undestand some ppl would like it. I also bought it and now it stays in my drawer (some people recommended it for me).

The answer is and will always be Logitech G502, the goated mouse

They used to be so good. I refuse to give up my G502.

I have one of the original ones which I think was better made although the scroll wheel is metal so it reacts with sweat and rusts. Other then that it's still working fine after about 10 years I think. It's wearing though like the rubber on the thumb rest down to the plastic. I think they fixed the scroll wheel rusting problem on later models? An alternative mouse would be great but it would need to be a very similar shape with the thumb rest and back and forward buttons which I use for going back and formward in web pages. The unlock ont he scroll wheel is also great if you want to quickly zoom to the bottom of a very long page. Not defending the products really but I would imagine you see a lot of problems for the G502 because they also just sold a damn bunch of them so just more people to moan.

502’ best fucking mouse on the market

I think it has more to do with your type of grip than with the mouse itself. Ive been using it for years and can't remember hitting it more than once or twice.

LOGITECH G502 is genuinely the best gaming mouse in terms of price/quality I've ever had. I know it comes in both black and white, but I'm not sure if it can be wireless.

I've never found a mouse like the G502. To me it's irreplaceable. Thought I'd write a list of reasons: 1. 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. 2. Customisable buttons, with a 'shift' modifier. Most people don't use these enough. I made shortcuts for Task Manager, screen clip, emoji list, and account lock. All instant, from a mouse click. Also makes life easier. 1. I also mapped the front 'thumb key' to left click. This helps avoid strain injury - I have a second left-click on my thumb! 2. Sniper button is also very useful, even outside of gaming. Any fine movements are easier. 3. It's quiet. Most mice are much louder than this. Even the G502 X is louder. The buttons also click nice and easily. 4. These typically last for years. I've had a G502 Proteus Spectrum for 9 years, and it's now my office mouse. My G502 Hero has been going for 2 years with no issues. The Hero model has a much better cable too. 5. It's ergonomic. Your right hand should be tilted to the right, in the resting position - and this mouse allows that. No need for an 'upright' mouse... 6. The rubber grips never wear out, or turn gunky like most rubber does. Unless you're the unlucky type with acidic sweat (can't use rubber). Reasons it's not the best: 1. No teflon feet - You need to buy them 3rd party, and mod it yourself. At least it's an easy workaround. 2. Heavy - I personally use high DPI, so I've adjusted to it. I can't go back to 'standard' mouse sensitivity after adjusting to high. So, the weight doesn't bother me. 3. Large - Depends on your hands. I have big hands, so it fits perfectly for me. Most mice are too small. But the shape can't be for everyone.

You'll get a billion suggestions of G502. It's fine, it's a perfectly safe choice, logitech mouse. That out of the way: Roccat/Turtle beach Kone XP. If you ever loved the logitech G700(s), the Kone XP(air) is the spiritual successor. Was a mad, mad fanboy for the G700(s) had 2 regular and 1x "s". The kone XP is ABSOLUTELY the successor, not a single doubt in mind. Even the thumb shift key is placed right (just off most peoples thumb meat) and weighted perfectly IMO. RGB is meh, turn it off. In every other way, screw TB with a large rusty mace, sideways. Can't speak for any of their other trash. Roccat were all about AWESOME hardware with software coded by a 2 week old long haired gibbon on a "coffee only" diet. The Kone XP is the sweet spot, still well above average mouse hardware and software that works very well (after some updates, genuinely not had a single issue with it but I was late to the party).

I do constantly hit them, because I mean to, because I've rebound them to something useful. I hate using mice that don't have buttons there at this point.

This is the way. Reason I always get a new g502 is the button placement for using mouse4 as my crouch is just too perfect /comfortable

That's why the G502 tops this list. Cheap and incredibly good. $45 on Amazon, bought mine nearly 4 years ago, and have had zero issues with it.

Interesting. I've had mine for years and don't think I've ever accidentally hit them.

Just get another G502, best mouse around hands down. I've been using them since they came out in 2014.

I used g502 and it’s pretty good. Also has a huge cult following that swear by it. I did end up changing to my hyperx ultra lightweight wireless mouse, and I love it so much more than my 502. I’ll never game with a corded mouse again

i can map every button on my g502 with piper

I admire you choices but I love my G502. The Big thumb button is my mount button. I love my mount button there.

I have the G502 and it's great. Razer Deathadder was my previous mouse and it died shamefully in the middle of a game, maybe others have a better experience with it, from my experience Razer is not reliable.

There’s a reason why r/g502masterrace exists

Must be your personal issue, never once accidentally pressed dpi buttons myself using this mouse daily for many years, I do have pretty thin fingers tho

I use a Logitech g502 which is pretty decent mid range (I think I got mine for ~$40) has side buttons I use one for my panic heal skill (don’t tell me you don’t have one) and one for weapon swaps. If you use the mouse for office stuff or web surfing, it has a cool wheel that can spin freely to zip to the top or bottom of a page quickly. Adjustable weights, and programmable. I really like it so far

Whatever you like, I use a g502 since I like heavier mice

Its purely personal preference all of them are the same . I use the g502 and it fits my big hands . Even though i dont have actual evidence but whenever i use a wireless mouse i can feel lag so for gaming i stick to wired mouses .

Yeah the g502 is a good example of this

The current iteration of the 502 is very cheap feeling, the wired version doesn't even have a braided cable anymroe

I've been using g502 which has 5 buttons (two on the tip of the mouse, 3 on the side, and with ctrl/shift/alt + button it's still 4 layers of buttons so it makes up for it, been using it for 7 years

G502 is goated for people with larger hands

G502 had it for 5 years so good

Honestly shocked to see the G502 so low on the list. Best mouse I've ever owned.

Naga Trinity or G502

The G502 is so comedically overrated.

G502! I have massive hands and it's nice. I did open it up to add a bit of weight, but that's maybe a personal thing. Both logitech and razer have mice specificly for big handed people. I like logitech the most from the ones that i tried.

G502 feels so 2018. Who in their right mind uses a paper weight of a mouse with double click issues for gaming in 2024 when there’s cheaper mice weighing barely 60gm and better switches and massively better ergonomics as per your preferred grip style.

I think you're right about the g502 but I think it's because people need the extra side buttons when they first get into mouse and keyboard gaming. They use as many keybinds on the mouse as possible as a crutch, because getting good with your left hand is one of the hardest things about learning how to play on keyboard and mouse. I think people just get into the hobby with the g502, develop such a mind muscle connection to it that they can't use anything else. Everyone I know who uses the g502 tell me it's just the first mouse they ever used and they're too use to it. I finally convinced my friend to take my GPX and use it, he learned how to game with the g502 and had been using it for 5 years. He now can't look back at the g502 and loves the gpx. It's just familiar for a lot of people and they don't want to move away from it

Yea exactly, you don't want to reposition your hand while aiming, I know you were kind of being sarcastic but honestly it's probably not best to use a common keybind on your mouse side buttons. What I think it is, is that most new players to keyboard and mouse are not use to using their left hand for a ton of dexterity and they try to stuff as many important keybinds on their right hand by using the mouse buttons and the g502 has a ton of buttons so they go with that mouse and then they learn on that mouse, get super use to it, and can only use that mouse even after they have fully learned how to game on a keyboard and mouse. I know multiple people who first learned with the g502 and have been using it for years. It just seems like the perfect mouse for beginners, and then they get so use to it. I finally convinced 1 friend to try a gpx for a month and if they didn't like it, go back to the g502, he never went back to the g502 and thanks me lol. A lot of g502 players just fear trying something else, even if they will play better, because they're so use to the g502, because it's what they first learned how to play on.

Yea being able to adjust your dpi is really nice, g502’s go on sale pretty regularly

Yea ig that sucks? Bought it originally for WoW

Whale fuck now I gotta justify another purchase

Also a Logitech g502 user, on my second one now. It's basically perfect for me. My keyboard is a Ducky One 2 Skyline. It's nice, but I've been thinking about custom building a new board for fun.

No steelseries mice, good. Had two, both of them three times as expensive as my current g502, both had corroded switches after a month and caused double clicks and all sorts of things. Not to mention the rubber on the side falling off after a week. Changing RGB colors to rainbow caused the mouse to glitch out completely and force some kind of a permanent autoclick. The software got more and more bloat as time went by. Nothing but horrible experience.

Please dont get logitech. I warn everyone for their mice. I have been a logitech user for long - g102, g304, g502, and now using g pro x superlight. But every freakin mouse gets double click issues. I thought I paid 10k for a mouse it will not have that issue but guess what - logitech doesn't cares. Go for razer please.

Logitech g502! Customizable weight, extra buttons are actually *ergonomic* instead that weird grid formation, and on board memory to change Keybinds for different games. Bought mine for \~$40 and it's lasted for 4 years so far.

Non gaming MC 3S Gaming? My heart will always go towards the G502. Have multiple, both wired and wireless, have had zero issues despite the YEARS on them. G Hub software is meh. I set my colors, DPI, and shut it off, never to be used again. Only cons would be weight for some and perhaps how it fits on their hand.

G502 - Over 2m tall here with shovel hands.

I'm 6'4 250 and I have huge hands. I have both the g502 and the spatha and the spatha fits in my hand so beautifully it is really like a perfect fit.

I think most companies make decent mice, but the priority should be a lightweight gaming mouse. Logitech Pro X Superlight 2 is around 60g and I like it, so something around that weight and comfortable in your hand would be ideal. I think up to 80g would be fine. It is of course subjective, I'm sure some people love heavier mice, and I myself was a G502 worshipper... but after buying a lightweight mouse IMO it's close to just being objectively better.

G502 is just a god-tier mouse in general. So good it has it's own fanboy subreddit, have owned mine for 5x years now

I mean i know the g502 has tons of buttons if you havent already looked at that

actually made my wrist actively hurt while using it, and I'm not a couch potato either. I lift regularly. It's so bad for ergo. The G305 is better, but again, switches wear out quickly. Which I guess is what you get for a $30 mouse.

This. Yes, I can remember to plug it in in game when it almost dies, but it's a thought thay hasn't came across my mind in YEARS. It's just always charged, wirelessly, and until someone else does the same tech, I love my superlight. Are there better mice? for SURE. Will I get them? Not without powerplay If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Logitech hasn't done me wrong, ever since I got my g502 and moved onto the gpro and the GPSL.

I have a Logitech G502 and I love it. Just generally a great mouse, Total War doesn't require any special features on your mouse to have a good time. Just get something comfortable.

I have a few. For ambi, it's Viper v3 and XM2w. For ergo it's EC2 and G502.

Second this! G502 at home, MX Master 3S at work. Wouldn't ever change. Batteries last 10x longer than Razer too

Imo after playing a Logitech g502, g702, super light, and glorious model O wireless, I still fondly remember the generic HP office laser mouse having the best feel. Imo if you want a sturdy mouse the g502 shouldn't be your first pick (felt way more "unstable" in terms of quality compared to the other mice, and the mouse wheel wobbled worse).

Any Logitech G502 series. The best gaming mouse there is

I have issues with EVGA's Unleash software with my Z20 keyboard (macro programming is a PITA and doesn't always register, and it does weird things when I use my KVM). GHUB on my G502 is mildly annoying (sometimes I have to alt-tab twice to get it to recognize a game and switch profiles) but it does work work. Seems like everyone is just bad at M&K hardware support.

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll grab one of these as a backup since they're cheap and I could consolidate my M&K software if my g502 fails. Ooh, and the RGB might actually sync up for once, hah (*glares at Gigabyte monitor, Logitech mouse, and EVGA keyboard...*).

I bought a g502 and a zowie EC2A on the same month, I was surprised the EC2A was the first to start double clicking.

G502, great mouse. I have it for many many years now and will probably not change it any soon.

I have this one too! but since my G502 feels much better, I have to use it instead.

I’ve tried a lot of gaming mice over the years and they’re all the same - high price tags, poor quality components. None of them lasted for more than a few years before they started double clicking or having scroll wheel issues. I’d recommend the basic wired Logitech G203, or G502 if you want something more ergonomic. Personally I don’t see why you’d ever need anything more than that for CS.

Logitech g502 goin in 7 years with this mouse

Yeah. Nah. Like, I hear what you're saying. And this was mostly true before they made using handheld tools absolutely fucking insufferable and slow. But I had to replace my mouse a few months ago. Got the 502 partially for this reason. I find the freewheel to be entirely pointless for trac beaming. Simply because the distance moved is more than exceeded by the regular mwheel movement (because its so fuckn slow). This may change if CIG design team ever get forced to load a ship with a tool/play their own game. On that basis I would counter-recommend something with more buttons if all else is equal.

Personal preference, for gaming my favorite is the G502. Used it for years before replacing to a newer version of it. For work its the G305 because its cheap and wireless and if it breaks a few years later, i can get another one.

I must've been one of the lucky ones where that didn't happen with the old G502 proteus spectrum. The new x plus version is supposedly using optical switches so I guess I'll see what happens in a few years. So far so good The G305 though, i think i had the opposite effect. LMB started only registering half the clicks I made unless i pressed really hard. Good thing it was cheap, swapped for another G305 lol

I personally love g502. It's sooo good that you can't complaint (except for some software issues :p)

G502 from 10 years ago. Original proteus core running strong, beast of a mouse

I have been using it for over 2 years at this point and its still as good as it was.

This was my last mouse and I loved it. The only problem is for some reason the left click sensors can fail, you wont notice it in dota but in games you need to hold the click (drawing a bow in skyrim) it will cycle on and off rapidly. After mine failed, a google search told me it was not an uncommon problem, so I switched to the razor equivalent. I prefer the feel 9f the g502, but the razor is almost the same and has not failed me in 2 plus years so far. G502 I didn't even get 2 years out of.

You can remove the weights on the g502… (watch me get downvoted cause I’m talking about Logitech)

Sorry but does this mouse hyperscroll vertically? the g502 is not magnetic but it hyperscrolls

Binding keys and actions to my G502 is what made the entry to MnK gaming much more accessible and manageable for me. If I had to stick my finger out any further than the V key or towards the numbers row when I made the switch from console to PC, I would've had a lot more trouble getting into it

G502 . It doesn’t have as many buttons as the 600 but is perfect for me . Is good for everything im playing

Love me some G502!

G502, and gpw now after double click issue. Pretty much every mouse is fine with a good middle mouse button & 2 extra buttons for me for rtss

Been using my G502 Since I got it and my PC back in 2018. Still going strong. SUCH a nice feeling mouse.

It's got to be the Logitech G502.

The Teevolution Terra fills the hand much better than my G502 does, id look into that.

decent? HOW DARE YOU speak such slander of our one saviour and lord g502,the greatest mouse that ever moused. (i wish it had more buttons though) so i still use my old logitech for rpgs.

I have the same mouse and I love my. I had been using the Logitech G502 for the longest time, but I kept having the switch in the left mouse button fail. The basilisk is the same size and button layout and lighter.

The Logitech g502 is hard to beat as long as you're right handed

Logitech G502 Free spinning mouse scroll wheel for tractor beam and speed control. Scroll wheel tilt left and right to change weapons. DPI buttons for SCM / QT master modes. Thumb buttons for Walk and F.

G502 gang!

Funnily enough I wholly ditched corsair for the same double clicking they had on their white RGB mouse, twice in a year to replace it and decided to go for a g502

Shape? G502. It’s literally the perfect shape. Your hand just sits in the damn thing. It’s amazing. But it’s a bit heavy and clunky and a modern alternative is only available as the much maligned Glorious Model I or Razer Basilisk.

i still use a logitech g502 since switching , solaar and piper provide what i need to use it , open rgb can set the lights as well

as an 'old 34 yo who grew up with the tech i always wanted one of those mice with the numbers for macros on the side.....till i had a razer molten naga , the buttons were too small to be worthwhile and the left click died way too fast to wanna try razer mice ever again ... these days i need the at least 2 side buttons tho ,just cause its so much easier having the back/foward buttons for browsers on them ,it feels Wrong not having them when i use my mother's mouse to help her now n then... that said since getting a g502 and having an additional 2 on top of that on the side idk if i can ever go back. i mapped copy/paste on them and its really nice to be able to do that now

I replaced the chord and it went again about a year later. Decided it was eventually time. Could not find one anywhere at a decent price so I went with a G502 I think it is. Not a bad mouse but not a MX518. Many many years of joy it brought.

I’ve tried a bunch of mice -final mouse UL and UL mini -glorious model O -g403 -g203 -death adder -GPro wireless And I still like the g502 best

Biggest misconception about the G502 is that it's made for large hands. While it works for some; myself included cannot use it. It's too damn narrow at the grip. My buddy with slightly smaller hands performs extremely well with it. If you fancy spending a little $$$ for a long term mouse, I recommend the Zowie EC line. Ergo shape, very large, around 70-80g, no extra software needed. I myself searched all over for a good mouse that fit my hand, went through about 40 different mice, and ended up on the "Zowie EC1-CW". I wanted large, not 100g, wireless, don't care for RGB, and more modern performance (negligible), and no additional programs needed to change mouse settings. Another few mice I enjoyed (though heavy) was the Razer Naga, Corsair M65, and (not heavy) G Pro Wireless / Superlight, and Glorious Model D. My hands are 8.25 x 4.5 (If I remember correctly). And I can totally palm the EC1-CW comfortably. It's literally a perfect fit for my hand. They also have different sizes of the same mouse. Also take grip style into account. I'm more a hybrid of Palm/claw. Width was the biggest killer for most mice from my experience. Anything under 63mm grip area width gave me cramps in my hand

Honest question because that's the biggest complaint I have about the g502: How the fuck do you not constantly press the two dpi buttons which are right besides the left mouse button. That's the single worst hardware design choice I've ever seen. I've tried the g502 and this together with the very high weight was the reason I returned it after two days.

Funnily enough, I'm using the logitech g502 and g815. I picked them up when I built a new system in October. I'm loving them, they work great for the wide variety of games I play.

G502, always G502

Very happy with my 502

I have purchased and gifted so many "high end" and expensive mouses (mice? meese?) over the years. My wife even got me one of those fancy RAT7 jawns back in the day. I keep going back to the G502 (or the older MX500 before the g series).

Logitec G502. Get scroll wheel and a just the right amount of programmable buttons. Also great wireless connectivity and battery lasts me forever, I charge it once a week and I game every day.

Logitech g502?

Minimum of three side buttons, good software and someone the larger side.....you can see the same text I can right? That sounds like a g502 to me, I recommended because my OG one is still going strong since release and is built like a tank.

get a used g502

G502 worked great for me. Both wired and wireless. If you want something cheap, the Rii wireless mouse worked great for me as well.

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

Possibly an unpopular opinion, but I don't think you need a keypad on the side kinda mouse. Me personally I've always found them cumbersome to use in-game, and unbearable to use when not playing wow lol. What I did/recommend is something like a Logitech G502. It's very comfortable, and comes with weights so you can adjust to your liking if you prefer a light or heavy mouse feel. What I did, and feel really improved my gameplay, was binding strafe to the two side buttons having character movement completely dedicated to my right hand. Also binded the other two macro buttons next to left click as modifiers (like alt/ctrl) for more keybind options. It frees up your left hand completely for just using abilities allowing you to reach more buttons/have more keybinds. Personally with mmo/keypad mice I'd find myself fat fingering abilities a lot so PERSONALLY (can't stress that enough) I don't really like/recommend them.

Logitech anything. MX Master for work, G502 for play.

Logitech g502. Just fits perfectly.......

Another vote for the G502 here, I'm 6'2" and it feels very comfortable in my hand

I'm using a G502 coming from a G700... https://preview.redd.it/r64tziesc1zd1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bd24a935f3e5e5bc2eeeace978c53561063b47db

If you use a tractor beam, Logitech mice with the freewheel. Mx3 or the 502 are awesome.

logitech g502 been my mouse for the past decade, and i will not replace that for anything else

Ignore everthing buy g402 Or g502

Unfortunately there aren't any alternatives for the g502 that have all the features I use on it. So far my 2 year old g502 is still going strong and I hope it doesn't die because I don't want to buy Logitech again.

Logitech G502. Not for the gaming features, but for Logitech G Hub. It has 11 programmable buttons that you can set to keyboard shortcuts for individual apps. It’s $100 but it’ll last you for years.

Headphones: Audeze LCDX with Audeze deckard amp/dac Mouse: g502 Keyboards: candy bar and bfo9000 I used to have a mouse mat from thekey.co and it was super high quality. Does anybody have recommendations for something of similar quality

Nobody is recommending the ROG Spatha, much bigger than the logitech g502 that others have suggested

I mean, generally what can you improve on a mouse that already has huge positive reviews? Like we are entering the point where innovation in the mouse space is essentially done. What else could they possibly do? Making them cheaper isn't innovation either. So generally the best solution is to go with the mouse who has the most true positive reviews. This will mean having that mouse for as long as possible and having the most positive experience. The 502 has been up there for a while for a reason i say. Wired or wireless. I have had 2 of them and only stopped using the first one because I had worn it down so much it needed to be replaced.

The 502 is one of the most popular and positively talked about mice on the market. If you read the data in the picture you would notice that the 502 has the most mentions and the most positive results over any other singular mouse.

How exactly did the 502 make itself worse? What absolute loony tune idea did you come up with here? The 502 has effectively not changed in the last 5-10 years. Aside from adding wireless, more weights for those that want them, and various new technologies. How are they worse. Hell even the price for them has stayed the same.

I have had my lightspeed for about a year now and it has zero issues. The thing about braided cables is that they were THE way to stop cables from fraying. However with the advancement of different rubbers and methods to stop degradation the newer style makes more sense. Braided cables typically have an issue where they don't glide across objects nearly as well. So like catching on edges of mouse pads or desks, which is what happened to my last one and one of the reasons for my change to a new one that was wireless. People see changes and instantly think they are bad but don't fully understand the issues they had with the old way.

Crazy that nobody mentioned G502 yet. Legit the most accurate mouse I've had in 20 years.

I really liked that mouse but after a year of usage the right mouse button became sticky. out of warranty

Used wireless, back to wired now and its fine. Took me couple days to get used to the wire. Will go back to wireless soon tho. I use Logitech G502, i like the shape and it has weights you can take off if you want it lighter

Started having odd issues with my scroll wheels on my x superlight and g502, decided to take them apart and take a look. The amount of cat fur I found wrapped around the scroll wheel and on the buttons was wild. After cleaning, have had no issues. Obviously entirely anecdotal.

The G502 might be the most overrated mouse of all time tbh. I bought one and returned it. The scroll wheel sucks for basically everything except for scrolling through webpages, the buttons are eh, it's not really comfortable to use and the quality is pretty much just okay. I had been using a cheap $20 mouse for about a year before I bought the G502. I then returned the G502 and for the past year have continued using that same $20 mouse
