Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been using the original G502 Lightspeed since it was released along with a Powerplay pad. With the G502 X Plus Lightspeed being an iteration of an existing model, I largely base this review on the significant changes between the two. Though it does come with some improvements, overall I find this new iteration to be a downgrade. [ What’s familiar ] At the heart of the mouse sits the Hero 25K sensor which has the same high precision, low latency, and smooth responsiveness I’m familiar with from the older model. I’m mostly fond of this performance, but as usual, woe to ye who encounters a spec of dust on their mouse pad, as when playing an FPS game, this will often snap my camera up to face the sky or down to the ground and spin around at RPMs that would make a car engine blush. Works well with the Powerplay pad. Though this is not a review of the Powerplay pad (sold separately), I see this compatibility as a major asset for this mouse. Besides the obviously very nice worry-free charging, the pad’s built-in wireless receiver provides very close-proximity wireless transmission that reduces/eliminates potential hiccups. The official G Hub software has improved since the old model was released, but it’s still pretty bad. As an example, for what should be a cornerstone feature, they *still* haven’t properly implemented automatic profile switching. I mean, they’ve tried, but it just doesn’t work well. I have to create desktop profile clones for each application/game I want to customize and then manually switch between them in order to have a sane experience. [ Improvements ] - I’m not fond of textured rubber grips on mice, but there’s improvement here. The tactile feel of the deep-grooved triangle mesh on the older model felt unpleasant and was a horrid magnet for biofilm buildup. The texture made it difficult to clean well and I removed bits of rubber every time I cleaned it, resulting in what now looks like quite a mess. The much more subtle texture of this new model feels nicer, and I assume will be easier to clean, though I expect I’ll still be removing some amount of rubber over time. - Pressing down on the wheel as a middle mouse button feels less awkward, probably due to the removal of the ribbing found in the old model’s wheel. - Swapping out the micro-USB port for USB-C was a long time in the coming, but appreciated all the same. [ Downgrades ] - It feels like there’s been a double or worse increase in the travel distance (pre-activation) of the left and right buttons over the old model. I greatly dislike this change, and I’m certain this has negatively impacted my gaming performance. - I prefer heavier mice, as I feel like they give me finer control than lighter mice. Not only is this new model lighter than the original, they completely removed the optional weights as well, which strikes me as a case of extreme corner cutting. This probably negatively impacted my gaming performance. - The switches on the left and right buttons are much louder, with a metallic ‘dink’ noise that I find particularly annoying. - The old model had three discreet indicator lights on the left side that could clearly display the current DPI setting as well as the current battery charge. With the removal of these lights, they added a single light beyond the scroll wheel to be used as a battery level indicator, which is almost completely hidden for me because of the curve of the mouse combined with its position on my desk, making it virtually pointless. The new Lightsync lighting is used as a DPI level indicator when changing this setting, but the colors are so arbitrary as to be meaningless, with apparently no way of changing these color presets. It feels like they’ve effectively removed these two features. - The included USB cable is rubber-coated. I have no idea why they bothered, as this adds unnecessary friction to mouse movement when tethered. [ Other thoughts ] - The changes to the G-Shift (‘sniper’) button has no benefit for me. The increased size is offset by it being placed farther toward the front, resulting in the same feel for me, which I think is a shame, as I see room for improvement here. - The vast majority of the new 8-LED Lightsync lighting is hidden when a hand is placed on the mouse, so it seems mostly designed as accent decoration while not in use, rather than for actual utility while in use. [ Conclusion ] While not a bad mouse, I consider the G502 X Plus Lightspeed to be a downgrade from the older G502 Lightspeed, and for that reason wouldn’t recommend it unless the new lighting particularly tickles your fancy.

I recently bought this mouse and fell in love. It has a unlockabke scroll whell and the scroll whell never stops spining if you spin it right. The rgb lights are a nice touch for gaming to. The sensor is very fast. Perfect for gaming. The left and right click are very nice and the extra programable buttons are awesome. Overall this mouse is 5 stars for me.

Logitech G502 is the best when it comes to gaming mice

This mouse feels great in my hand, and you can feel how much lighter it is than the previous model. It responds before I even click completely, it feels like. The batter life in it is unmatched too. Even with RGB on always. My favorite mouse ever.

The Logitech - G502 X PLUS LIGHTSPEED is a very good mouse, whether for gaming or anything else with your computer. I'm a fan of Logitech products and have never had any problems with any of them. I'd give this 5 stars, but Best Buy was incredibly slow getting it to me, and I'm local. I would have gone to the store to buy it, but I wanted to save gas and time to do other things. My mistake.

Great product and fast service. Product worked well as described, thank you!

Smooth inputs and satisfying clicks. Vibrant lighting if you care about that. Not as heavy as expected.

This is an extremely light and responsive mouse and with the upgraded button the clicking sound is exquisite

pretty good response, great mouse, went from the wired version to the wireless due to a set up change and needed the space, this works great and no cables!

Bought this as a Christmas present. My husband loves it and says it’s light weight and smooth while he is playing.

Good mouse. It is very comfortable. I like the option to swap the dpi button out.

This mouse is amazing. It was a birthday gift for my techie boyfriend and he loves the heft, the reactivness and the charging capabilities.

Longest lasting battery life out there, hasn't been charged and still going after a week of all day use.

Very good product for sure. I have no issues and no input lag!

Pretty similar to the previous version. My only issue are the side buttons were shifted a little bit and it took a while to get used to it. Otherwise, I'm very happy with this purchase.

Very good mouse, speed is perfect and it performs well under stress

Great mouse. Quick and easy pick up. Would buy again.
