    Very good mouse, I have purchased a lot and send to friends as gifts. I still remember when these came out decades ago and one of my classmates got one for Counter Strike... awesome design, awesome quality. I own many other gaming mice including wireless ones. This is the cheapest one and my favorite.

    Great mouse, got it for gaming originally, not as hi-tech as some, but very sturdy and feels good, the right side is a lil funky on the ring and pinky fingers, but not in a way that inhibits enjoyment of use. over all tracking is good, buttons are responsive, and the build is sturdy, good product for the price.

    Feels just like the original version of the mouse with some added features on the buttons to set up now. It's a lot bulkier than the newer mice today, but definitely still a go to for many I would imagine. Great price, no extra fancy stuff, just good all around mouse for gaming / every day use.

    I think its better than the G502. It's not as flashy and doesn't come across as a "gaming mouse" to the eye, but it's helping me get those snaps in csgo and cod. And thats all that really matters. Got it for $20, the cheapest I've ever seen it is $40-- I've never made a purchase quicker than this.

    Using nostalgia to sell this mouse, after using it now, I'm sorta disappointed, even at the 19.99 price point I got it for. I would say unless you really like nostalgia, it's worth getting a newer/better/lighter mouse.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    The MX518 is still a great mouse. I got this mouse on sale for $20, that's an incredible value. This one has the excellent feature of being able to save your settings to the mouse's on board memory so you can take it between systems and have it always set up the way you want it.

    Good mouse. I've had similar throughout the years. I've gravitated towards clae-type mice over the years, so this is quite a bit bigger than I've been used to. Still, it performs admirably and feels great in the hand. A little clicky for my taste, and also doesn't feel as solid in the hand,but otherwise very functional.

    I had fond memories of gaming with the old MX500. I can still feel it in my hand. So, what better way to do some XP era retro gaming than to go with its' modern replacement. The same feel but way better tracking.

    Used to own an original one. This mouse brings a lot of memories. I like the shape, sensor and button responsiveness and the fact that the cord is not braided. Which makes it easier to clean. If you can get this on sale, it's tremendous value. Highly recommend!
