Same, I've had my Logitech MX518 for 15 years. Still going strong, good as new. I also have worked from home for the past 6 years so it's been used around 8 hours a day mon-fri in that period of time.

"Finalmouse Classic Ergo", followed by the good old "MX518" were the only ones that really worked for me (I've tried a lot from Razer, Logitech, Lamzu, Zowie, Vaxee, Xtrfy, etc.)

G502 pales in comparison to its predecessors. G500 was superior in build quality, functions, button placement, and ergonomics MX518 was the GOAT though

r/gaming • Why was the Logitech G203 considered to be the best gaming mouse of all time? →

I went from MX518 to G5. The G5 had adjustable weights in the tray, as well as replacement grips, which could really change the overall size and shape of the mouse, or different textures - one grip was smooth, another textured. I've now moved onto the G502 Hero - another good sized mouse, adjustable weight, plenty of buttons and software to support remapping them. Nice having a dpi thumb button to help with sniping, having that bound to a much lower dpi for precision work, and much higher for normal.

Loved these, still use the g mx 518 as I just can’t seem to find something as comfy to me. I dread the day it dies.
