Excellent gaming mouse-precision control & rapid fire action available

This mouse is awesome. But the switches it uses for the clicks are known to fail and my right mouse button just started having issues 3 months out of warranty. Not great for such an expensive mouse.

I bought this product because my wired version of the same mouse broke. Easy to say this is a defective over priced basura

Pros: Excellent ergonomics, nearly identical to wired 502 Hero, 60 hour battery, grippy rubber scroll wheel Cons: 48 hour battery when using LED light I used to be part of the wired mice only for gaming camp, that is until I stumbled upon the G502 lightspeed. I have last year’s G502 Hero and will base my review comparing the two. Starting with design and ergonomics, the G502 Hero and G502 Lightspeed are practically identical in terms of button layout and size. Aside from the obvious Hero being wired and Lightspeed being wireless, there are three key areas where they differ: 1) Scroll wheel - the Hero has a solid metal wheel, the Lightspeed has a spoked metal wheel with a rubber ring. I actually prefer the more grippy rubber on the Lightspeed wheel. The metal wheel on the Hero can get a little slippery. 2) Glide - the Lightspeed glides a bit better than the Hero. There’s quite a bit more surface area on the rear foot on the Lightspeed in the Powercore module area. 3) Weight - Hero @ 121 grams vs Lightspeed @ 114 grams maxing at 139 gram and 130 grams respectively. I actually prefer the lighter weight of Lightspeed. Speaking of weight, I wanted to point out one caveat for prospective buyers who plan on getting the Powerplay pad. When you use the Powercore module for wireless charging, you lose the ability to add weights to that compartment. The Powercore module takes up the entire area. You can still add weights to the middle/front compartments, but it does make it a bit front heavy. Fortunately for me, I like where the weight is at with the Powercore module installed. Not having to plug in a cable or place the mouse in a dock to charge is awesome. It’s a great time to be alive! Battery life: The published specs are accurate. I got about 2 days worth of use when the LED on and 8-10 ish hours of extended use with the LED light off. This would be a concern only if I’m traveling as I use the Powerplay at home. Wired gaming mouse replacement? I did not perceive any noticeable lag moving between the Hero and Lightspeed and would not have any hesitation using my Lightspeed as my only gaming mouse. I am a casual gamer, but also do content creation. The tracking precision and accuracy is phenomenal!

Just wasn't happy with it. Very expensive. You end up with a usb cable dangling around all the time to keep everything charged.

The battery life is terrible. I returned it and went with th G502X plus. I used it 8-10 hours for office work with a fixed light. I didn’t like my saved light setting didn’t work once I plugged it to the corporate device. Maybe the cycling of the lights drains the battery versus being a fixed color. G502x Plus has 5 onboard memory profiles, which allows me to use it in other devices.

The initial feel of this mouse was great. After about 3 months I started having a ton of trouble with the RMB and the LMB double clicking or not working at all. Total dissapointment.

Received a notice stating the new hero 25k was on sale. Went to store and picked it up and purchasing online. Got home and read the box. It was the hero 16k sensor so I took it back. While at the store I was told I was incorrect and didn’t read the packaging right. Even after pointing out where it clearly said 16k and showing the manager where it said 25k online I stopped trying to explain it and just returned it and bought the 25k version elsewhere. I figure they are just trying to move out old stock before the new 25k comes in but buyer beware and read the packaging.

Great gaming mouse, free wheel is great for scrolling

What was already a top-rated mouse design gets even better using Logitech’s light speed technology. The mouse comes with a USB adapter for charging, a case for holding the additional weights that can be added, the mouse of course, and a USB wireless dongle. Things I love: The design. My hand just kind of naturally falls into the curves and grooves of the mouse. Each button is just a slight movement away and it doesn’t feel like a chore to have to find them on the mouse. The mouse doesn’t feel like a wireless mouse. And by that, I mean the way it moves on the screen, no noticeable lag whatsoever, no cord to snag the back of my desk. I’m not a professional gamer by any means, but input lag or latency is nonexistent for me using the G502. Things I Like: The customization options check the boxes. You can use the downloadable software to change what each button does, change DPI modes to your liking. You can use the G-shift button to open even more button options, as well as use it as a Johnny on the spot sniper button when you need to fine tune your shot by slowing down your DPI to a crawl. RGB is all the rave and it’s customizable on the G502 as well as weights that can be added to the underbelly to make the mouse a bit heavier if that’s your thing. This is also compatible with Logitech’s power play mouse pad. This will charge your mouse as you game so there is no cables and no downtime whatsoever while your connected. Final Thoughts: There’s not anything about this mouse that I don’t like. I’m not using it for a competitive edge but having the feel and design of a wired gaming mouse, but without the cord to drag around the desk or having to wrap it up when I want to go somewhere, is extremely convenient for me. I’m so glad they kept the design of it’s wired brother. My only concern down the road is replacing the internal rechargeable battery which I see no clear way to do, but it isn’t going to deter me from enjoying this mouse at all.

This is my third and last Logitech mouse. After 2 or 3 months of basic use ( not gaming ), the left mouse button started double-clicking. The mouse is impossible to use in basic tasks like the selection of text and dragging and dropping files. I will personally never buy another logitech product again.

the software sucks. just like corsair - DO NOT BUY! It sucks, your STUCK with it and logitech could care less. ITS JUNK!

The mouse worked for maybe a week when I was only playing one game and it would sometimes stutter. Played another game and I couldn’t even play. Ended up switching to the razer basilisk.

Replaced 2x before moving onto corsaie mouse. the right click on logitech breaks if you do a lot of right click held down (both broke around 6 month mark)

This mouse is great except that sometimes it will not charge even when the lights are on indicating it is.

Requires proprietary USB micro cable. If anything happens to the cable you are up a creek. Been a Logitech fan all my life. Gonna start shopping around now that they are doing this more and more.

It’s nice but the side button gets annoying sometimes

I had to return this mouse. I currently have the G502 wired. I love it. Works great and feels solid. The wireless model feels a lot cheaper. The mouse wouldn't track well at all. It would randomly not pickup movement. The wireless dongle was on top of my desk about a foot away. I moved my headset dongle to see if that was the problem. I use a mousepad. The wired version has a setting for what type of surface you are using, but the wireless doesn't have that option. I really want this mouse too.

I have the wired version of this mouse and liked it so I got the wireless version, but the mouse disconnects and lags while in use

Extra buttons too sensitive, accidentally changing the dpi all the time. Scroll wheel is a loose cannon, almost useless. Unfortunate, G703 much better.
