Logitech G502 X Plus Wireless Gaming Mouse - LIGHTSPEED Optical, LIGHTFORCE Switches, LIGHTSYNC RGB, HERO 25K Sensor for PC/Mac - White

I've been a long time user of the G602 and G604, but both were heavy, and the 604 replaced the 602, and has since been discontinued and not replaced. So after searching for mice with extra buttons near the thumb but also comfortable with a lot of the features I've loved in the 604. While the G502 X didn't fill all those needs, it's been a great choice.Pros:- Ergonomic - It just fits my (rather large) hand well in a few different positions, and is so light I've found my wrist fatigue has been reduced significantly. Unlike the 604, I can press every button easily without looking for them, particularly the scroll wheel, DPI adjustments, and 3 easy to find thumb buttons is great. It also feels comfortable, which is hard to describe, but the material feel is what I want in a mouse.- Light - I mentioned this in the ergonomic part, but its super light. Apparently it's around 105 grams, which can be heavy for an ultra-competitive mouse, but for most gamers or folks just looking for a light wireless mouse, it's great.- Great button feel - The older Logitech mice used to have a weird mushy click and my old 602 and 604 both had issues where the button would stop working well. The new G502 X models have a new mechanical click that feels amazing. Very much like a mechanical keyboard as far as consistancy and feedback. Not every button has the same feel, but they all feel very tactile and reliable.- Great battery life - I can get 3 weeks on a full charge at 1000 hz poling rate. Don't bother with smaller polling rates, as when the mouse isn't being used it's not a power issue, and when it is in use, it's still not a huge power issue. You might get a few extra days at best, but if 3 weeks isn't enough charge time for you, I'd be shocked.- USB-C charging - Sad that this is still a plus, but USB-C cables are so much better. Glad we're finally starting to no longer see Micro-USB cables.- Works Wired - Forgot to charge it? You can use it wired, or use it while charging (Either works).- Great sensitivity - The mouse is so adjustable, I found I could turn it down from my usual DPI and get both great responsiveness and accuracy with a near default config.- Customizable - Logitech G software has flaws, but it does allow some pretty good versatile configurations. Every button can be remapped and remapping can be done on a per-app basis.- Logitech Support - I've had multiple issues with Logitech mice long into their service but under warranty, and Logitech has always been easy to work with to get a replacement or help. This sounds like I'm saying Logitech has a quality issue, and I'm not, I know stuff happens, particularly with high use products, so it's good they stand by them.Cons:- Large - It's not a small mouse, so if you have small hands, it could be a little large for you. It also means it's not easily portable, though honestly mice aren't that large in general, so portability isn't a major concern, and you can always get a mouse case if you travel a lot and want to protect it.- Logitech G Software sucks - I mean, it does OK, it can auto-sense games, you can copy profiles, but it has several general flaws, including if it detects a new game it generates that game's default setting that you CAN NOT CUSTOMIZE ahead of time. If I have a known default mapping/DPI setting I know I like in most games, why can't I make that the default? Also, making button changes and navigation of the US is very unintuitive. Like one of the worst UIs I've worked with on a major brand's software. It also by default likes to spam notifications that is harder to turn off than I would have liked (Otherwise, every time the mouse gets touched, you get a windows notification or 3 about the mouse and DPI changes). Their old software (pre 2015) was easy to use, and worked in the UI was nearly the exact opposite of this. Fix your software Logitech!- No backup gliders - Not a deal breaker, as I know I've not had a mouse with glider issues in the past 10-15 years, but it would be nice, particularly on a gaming mouse where if the pads wear it could be noticeable for some. I don't need stickers Logitech, I'd rather have a replacement pad set.- No pinkie rest - Some mice have a nice pinkie rest that helps you relax your hand a bit. This mouse does not. That's definitely a personal thing, and honestly most gaming mice have moved away from this due to weight, but with a large hand, I like mice with them.Overall, it's a great mouse with a lot going for it. I'm enjoying using it, have found my hand/arm feel better after a day of using it vs my old mouse, and love all the features it offers that I can look past any small shortcomings.Who do I recommend this mouse for? Artists who need finite DPI control. Office workers who want a bigger mouse (there are cheaper options, but it's a solid productivity mouse). People who use their computer for a significant time. Casual gamers. Competitive gamers who want an all in one mouse. It's a good mouse for a lot of use cases, which is why I'm giving it a 5 star review. It's not perfect, but very few products are, and it's strong where it needs to be.

I’m not gonna lie—clicking “Buy Now” on a $179.99 mouse felt like I was ordering a small appliance, not a piece of plastic designed to sit under my hand and help me teabag strangers in Call of Duty. But friends… this is no ordinary mouse. This is the Logitech G502 X Plus. And it’s not a mouse—it’s a lifestyle upgrade.This thing didn’t just arrive. It descended from the heavens, glowing with RGB LIGHTSYNC glory, ready to light up my desk and my self-worth.Here’s what makes this mouse feel like it belongs in a museum (or at least a Bond villain’s gaming setup):LIGHTSPEED Wireless: The connection is so fast and smooth, I checked three times to make sure it wasn’t actually wired. My old wireless mouse had lag. This thing has telepathy.LIGHTFORCE Switches: They sound and feel so satisfying I started clicking things I didn’t even need to click. I deleted three files just for the tactile experience.HERO 25K Sensor: This mouse can track movement down to the atomic level. I accidentally sneezed while gaming and it executed a perfect 360 noscope.RGB Lighting: Oh, it glows. Subtly? No. Elegantly? Not really. But gloriously? Yes. The lights pulse like the mouse is alive. Sometimes I stare at it just to feel something.Customizable Buttons: 13 of them. THIRTEEN. I have keybinds on here I didn’t even know I needed. I now have a dedicated button for muting Zoom calls, launching Spotify, and making a sandwich (okay, not the last one—yet).Things you need to know:Yes, it’s pricey. It’s the most I’ve ever spent on a mouse. I hesitated. I questioned my life choices. But now? I look at my old mouse the way a billionaire looks at a gas station hot dog: with pity.Battery life? Fantastic. Ergonomics? Feels like it was molded by a tiny Swedish artisan who studied my hand shape since birth.Final Verdict:If you’re even thinking about this mouse, do it. Is it overkill for spreadsheets? Absolutely. Do I now dominate Excel like it’s an eSports tournament? You bet.This is the mouse your hand deserves. Welcome to the premium click life.

This is amazing. I didn’t think I would like it as much as I do. The latency is extremely low, on par or even lower than a wired mouse according to rtings testing.The battery life is actually amazing. I have the RGB on the mouse turned down to 25% brightness (still plenty bright) and with that I get at least 1 week per charge with heavy daily usage. (I use the mouse for probably 4-8 hours every day, and have it set to turn off the RGB w after the mouse is idle for a few mins.)It’s cool that the app will show you the remaining hours of battery life, and as you adjust features (like RGB strength, polling rate) it will show you the power usage and how much time you’d have left.It’s fully and completely customizable. All the buttons, DPI settings, RGB colors/patterns/strength, etc can be completely changed and stored in 5 different profiles (on board the mouse, you can have even more profiles with the app). You can set it up so that it will switch to a specific profile when you launch a specific game. So you could even have a completely customized profile for every game you play.For instance I have a profile for desktop use (browsing the internet, watching TV, etc) with a low 125hz polling rate to save battery during that type of usage. And then when I boot up a game it switches to a different profile with 1000hz polling rate. (Which honestly, the 125hz polling feels fine and I don’t even think I can tell the difference besides placebo lol)
