Makes gaming with bigger hands easier. For this price, i would recommend.

best mouse ive ever used, its like the regular G502 but on steroids

Quite nice I must admit logitech stepped up big time

The software def needs some updating to make it more clear but its a good mouse.

The mouse is very high quality and lives up to the g502 pedigree, but it isn’t for everyone. I tend to claw grip mice and when I attempt to do so with this mouse it makes using the scroll wheel a little less comfortable. If I want to use the thumb button for quick dpi adjustments it forces my hand to sit a little farther forward. Doing so causes my index finger to have to curl back a lot and leads to wrist pain. If I move my hand further back and maintain claw grip, but can use the mouse wheel comfortably then I can’t reach the thumb button.

It's great. LED's are bright and smooth. I wish the mouse was just a tiny bit lighter though. I have it working with powerplay and it's excellent.

I love this mouse it's so clean and if you have big hands it fits so well!

----- SUMMARY ----- Verdict: There’s a lot to like about the Logitech G502 X Plus. It’s fast, highly customizable, and offers satisfying clicks. You’ll also be happy with the long battery life and comfortable design. The G502 X Plus is an excellent gaming mouse for those who want several customizable buttons and speedy performance that won’t let you down in fast-paced games. Pros: - Appealing and comfortable design - Highly customizable - Crisp and tactile switches - Fast response rate - Long battery life Cons: - No Bluetooth connectivity ----- DETAILS ----- Design & Features: With its curved profile and supportive thumb rest, the Logitech G502 X Plus gaming mouse has an ergonomic shape. There are also a few nice touches like a rubberized, textured grip on the sides and a small indentation in the left click button. It has felt comfortable to use while playing a variety of games or working from home. The front has a USB-C input for charging, but the mouse is also compatible with Logitech’s PowerPlay Wireless Charging System (sold separately). Since I don’t currently have that, I can’t speak to how well PowerPlay works with the G502 X Plus, but it’s nice knowing that feature is available. Battery life is solid, with up to 120 hours when RGB lighting is off or 37 hours when you have the RGB set to always on. A unique design aspect of the “Plus” version of the G502 X is the 8-zone LED lighting area on the palm rest. With that, you also get active play detection which will automatically turn the lighting off when your hand covers it (to conserve battery power). The lighting settings and more can be customized in the Logitech G Hub software. More on that later. All the clicks and button presses feel nice on the G502 X Plus, thanks to Logitech’s new hybrid optical-mechanical switches, which are crisp and tactile. It was a noticeable and satisfying change from my previous mouse. The left side has a removable sniper button that can easily be swapped out with a non-clickable rubberized button (included in the box). The sniper button is also reversible, so it can flair towards your thumb or away from it, depending on your preference or hand size. As for the scroll wheel, you have the choice between hyperfast scrolling or a more precise, “ratcheted” mode. The scroll wheel also allows you to scroll left and right by pushing your finger on the left or right side to tilt it in either direction. On the bottom, you’ll find PTFE feet, which help the mouse glide smoothly across various surfaces. I’m using a leather-like pad on my desk, but I tried the G502 X Plus on a mouse pad and a few other flat surfaces and barely felt any friction. The ergonomic design of the G502 X Plus coupled with its light weight makes this the most comfortable mouse I’ve ever used. It’s also sleek and eye-catching, especially with the RGB lighting on. If you’d rather not have the RGB, the non-plus version of this mouse has all the same features without the lighting, and it’s a bit cheaper. Performance: The G502 X Plus handles each game exceptionally well. For testing, I picked several games across different genres, like Red Dead Redemption 2, Age of Empires IV, The Witcher 3, and Call of Duty: Warzone. The accuracy and responsiveness are fantastic. Having the extra buttons comes in handy, especially since you can customize them to a specific game. The buttons are well-positioned so that they can be easily pressed when needed, but I appreciate that they’re also unobtrusive. The USB-A “Lightspeed” wireless receiver has proven to be reliable, as I’ve not experienced any connection drops or mouse lag. I have zero complaints about the performance of this mouse. I just wish it came with Bluetooth connectivity as well because that makes it a little easier to switch between my desktop and laptop, but that’s not a dealbreaker for me. Software: Logitech G Hub is the home for adjusting the RGB lighting, reprogramming buttons, creating profiles for games and apps, customizing the DPI levels (mouse sensitivity), and monitoring the battery. When I installed Logitech G Hub, it instantly recognized my G502 X Plus mouse and has been working seamlessly with it since. It’s an easy-to-use software with only a few screens to toggle through, but it offers a lot of customization. ----- WHAT’S IN THE BOX ----- 1x G502 X Plus Wireless Gaming Mouse 1 x DPI-Shift Button Cover 1 x USB-C Charging Cable 1 x Lightspeed USB-A Receiver 1 x USB Extension Adapter 1 x User Documentation 1 x Sticker

Best mouse I’ve ever owned. I immediately put superglides V2 on this mouse as soon as I got it. The GHub to configure the mouse is awesome as well. The only part of the mouse that I don’t like is it’s not as easy to see which on board profile you’re using. The older G502 Hero had 3 lights that were specifically there to show which onboard profile you were on. This mouse does indicate which profile by the LEDs on the light changing to the color you specified it to glow. But if you didn’t want any LEDs on you would be absolutely clueless to what onboard profile you are on and it’s not exactly hard to hit the button to change profiles

I've been using the Logitech G502X Lightspeed Plus for the last week and I haven't been able to stop using it. So much so that I can't decide if the Razer Viper Ultimate V2 Pro is still my favorite mouse of all time or if this Logitech G502X Plus has just taken it's place. After going through countless gaming mice over the years that boast all the latest tech and features, I've narrowed down three core components that matter the most to me: mouse shape and how it conforms to my hand, the sensor, and weight. While these three core components are of most significance to me, the additional components such as the scroll wheel, mouse skates, physical buttons, and software are the defining factors that complete the overall package. They ultimately help aid my decision in whether I make a mouse my daily driver or not. After about a week's use, I'm convinced that Logitech has delivered a flagship product worthy of a daily driver. For someone with medium to large hands, I find the mouse shape of this Logitech G502X plus right on the cusp of absolute perfection. For context, my hand measures 7.5" height (from the base of my wrist to the tip of my middle finger) by 4.25" width (measuring across my palm including my thumb). While mouse shape and size ultimately comes down to personal preference, I find the shape of this G502X perfect for interchanging between my preferred palm and claw grip. It also has a more prominent hump than the smaller Viper Ultimate V2 which adds an ergonomic comfort that is not present in the Viper Ultimate. While in some scenarios (mainly competitive FPS short gaming sessions) I may still prefer the more low profile shape of the Viper Ultimate V2 Pro, I'm noticing that the more ergo shape of this G502X makes for a much more comfortable experience for long gaming sessions. It does so without compromising on my performance either as I've found the ability to maneuver the mouse to be about the same. While the weight of 104 grams is significantly heavier than a lot of today's popular gaming mice, for my medium to large hands, this was a non issue. I also found that the heavier weight of this mouse is easily counteracted by the stellar mouse shape and thumb rest which provided some of the best handling I've ever experienced. And if you were a big fan of the original G502 (which I certainly was back in the day!), you'll be happy to know that it's now lighter than the original 114 grams. In terms of the Hero 25k sensor, there's really not much to say other than it's a flawless sensor. I played countless hours of Overwatch, Counter-Strike GO, Vanguard, Warzone, Doom Eternal, etc., and was very impressed with it's insanely accurate tracking performance. I never experienced any sort of input lag, stutter, or delays when using it wirelessly. Another thing I really love is it's default lift off distance out of the box. When using AWPs or scouts in CS:GO, this is something that has always been immediately apparent to me. I either have to mess with LOD settings or scrap the mouse all together. This G502X is well balanced in this regard. Testing the sensor across a multitude of different screen sizes and resolutions with different DPI settings, the tracking always felt perfect. When it comes to the additional hardware components, this mouse is just well built. The pure PTFE feet glide effortlessly on practically any surface. I'm also a huge fan of the infinite scroll wheel. It's something I find myself using more and more for productivity work. It's also very sturdy with prominent clicks. In terms of the physical buttons, Logitech's new hybrid optical switches feel extremely satisfying. By far the best switches I've ever felt on a mouse. This is something that Logitech has always gotten right and now it's better than ever. They feel very crisp with great tactile actuation. This has always been a bit of a sore point on my Viper Ultimate V2 since the optical switches feel a bit mushy. Of course, this new G502X plus comes with a sniper button as was originally featured back when the G502 was first debuted. I love that Logitech now gives you the option to remove it altogether and replace it with an unobtrusive button that's included in the box. Another feature that I like is the additional G7 and G8 buttons which allow you to map them to whatever you want. By default, they function as DPI toggles (up/down) which is a feature that is being stripped on a lot of new flagship gaming mice in order to make them as light as possible (not a fan!). Lastly, the Logitech G Hub software is a joy to use. It's minimalistic and intuitive design interface accompanied by a plethora of different customization options, just helps to accent what is already a top notch product. G-Hub tells you exactly how much battery you have left (down to the power consumption of your mouse), allows you to set multiple profiles, map buttons, change RGB lighting, create macros, and customize DPI speeds. I love the "on-board memory mode" option. This is perfect for those who don't want to mess with software. Just set everything once and those changes will be saved onto the physical on-board memory of the mouse so your settings will just automatically load whenever you boot your PC. I was not expecting to like this mouse as much as I did. Although I was a big fan of the original G502, somewhere down the line I got caught up in the ultra light weight gaming mouse trend. So much so, that I had forgotten how iconic this mouse shape (and it's thumb rest) is and how well it conforms to my hand; an easy tradeoff for a slightly heavier mouse that most users can easily adapt to. Combine that with useful software, sleek PTFE feet, amazing hybrid optical switches, a flawless sensor, and an epic scroll wheel, and you have one of the best, if not THE best, flagship gaming mice currently out!

I’ve been married to the legendary G502 mouse line since 2016: starting with the Proteus Spectrum, graduating to my first Hero in 2018, cord-cutting with the game-changing Lifespeed wireless model in 2019, and now with the newest iteration of goodness…the G502 X Plus. There is always an initial worry when anyone says ‘new and improved’, my fear immediately goes to changes to the form factor. To me, no computer accessory is as intimate to my gaming comfort as my mouse, you take forever to find the one that is perfect fit for you, and once you do you hope it never dies because everything inevitably changes. Logitech has done a superb job of staying true to the classic look and feel that made the G502 model the legend that it is, I was not at all sure how they were going to continue that trend. Why? Because I can see the slightly different ergonomics of the two side buttons, the mouse wheel and the DPI switch. I can tell the thumb rest is elongated, I can feel the new texture on left and right side grips and the confident clicks of the new switches…all subtle changes against the backdrop of the new Lightsync RGB 8-zone lighting area crowning the palm rest. Even with all the easily distinguishable changes to the build, it still rests easy under my grip in that same familiar position, fitting like a glove (or maybe vice versa…). It still feels like home, yet the differences seek attention. Here is what you notice. Still the same old greatness: Buttons: you get more buttons than a non-MMO mouse has a right to have, up from 11 programmable buttons on the old to 13 on the new. Map away to your hearts content Scroll Wheel: same hyper fast scroll potential, it’s a one-button switch between comfortable clicks and free spinning action, swap out to whatever your pleasure is. Wheel remains tiltable left and right Hero 25K sensor – still crushing worlds with sub-micron tracking, zero compromises given when your sensor is among the best out there. Lightspeed wireless – my original experience with first-gen Lightspeed was that it essentially felt like zero-lag- I literally tested it side by side with my Hero wired mouse and felt no compromise in cutting the cord. The new mouse boasts a 68% improvement over the existing Lightspeed, but I’m not sure how you can improve 68% over basically lagless play. Its basically corded, without a cord. Fits seamlessly into the existing Logitech infrastructure – G-Hub software picked up the new mouse right away and assigned a new device profile for immediate customization. I swapped the Powerplay disc from the old mouse into the new and it took to charging immediately off of my Logitech Powerplay base, and which also has a built in Lightspeed wireless receiver the mouse paired to. As with the old model, there is a port at the nose of the mouse (USBC) for charging if you haven’t figured out how to make the Powerplay charging mat a part of your life yet. Do it, it is so worth it to never plug it in. Ever. Raising the bar: Lightforce Hybrid Switches – new optical-mechanical switch technology, while I didn’t consider it a detracting feature on the 2019 version, you can definitely feel a firm difference in the click. Coupling optical speed and mechanical feel rewards you with incredible speed and reliability. Outstanding upgrade. Friction Free gliding - New coating on the bottom of the mouse, looks like white stickers but is a PTFE layer on the feet to reduce friction between the mouse and the pad/surface. Definitely noticeable between last-gen and this model, it glides on the Powerplay mat hard surface. Customizable sniper button – okay, small upgrade, but I like it, the ‘sniper’ button on the left side is on a magnet, and can either be flipped for a better feel, or replaced with an included blank (my choice) to remove it. Nice touch, this button was a bit annoying on the old one as it was built for weird long-thumb people, and not me. Lightsync RGB – the plus model has an 8-zone RGB break on the palm rest, looks awesome alone but in tandem with my Powerplay mat and G915 TKL Lightspeed keyboard, customize your setup eight ways to Sunday. Mine all run in simple cycle, but they look great in unison. Unit weight – I’m torn on this, it isn’t a plus for me but I understand that the trend is towards ultra-light. This unit reduced it’s weight from (I think) 114g in the last-gen wireless unit to 106g on this comparable unit- a feat considering the new LEDs are an added weight- but I do like my mice a little on the ‘more substantial’ side (no weight-shaming here), and I do miss the customization offered with the weight kit in the last model. Making mice intentionally heavier isn’t a thing anymore, and I may be alone on and island with that. What can I say, to each their own. All in, the new G502X Plus weaves great new function into a time-tested familiar form. It somehow reinvented itself without changing what makes it a legend, and added some really great value while cutting weight (and not corners). It comes at a premium price, but it is a premium product with much more to offer if you enhance it with the Powerplay upgrades (do it, really). I said it when I reviewed the 2019 version and it still holds true– this mouse was never a question of if, it was always a question of when.

Great mouse!!! Nice functionality with lots of cool color patterns. Easy to use and program. It can be used wirelessly or wired. The thumb button it’s really nice, especially while gaming. Myself and other family members also bought this. Highly recommend!

My old G604 has taken a beating over the last couple years, and it was time to look for a new mouse, while it still works perfectly it’s showing it’s age and has held up to many hours of gaming. When I saw Logitech “reinvented” the G502 with the “X Plus” model I had to give it a try. Unboxing and first impressions: The mouse came in a nice “typical” Logitech logoed box, and inside is the mouse, charging / wired cord, wireless receiver, a blanking button for the shift button, manual, and the usual “L” sticker. The body itself is pretty closely shaped to the G604 but more angular, the two main mouse buttons are longer and narrower then the 604s and the two buttons next to the left mouse button are much longer and easier to reach. There are two side buttons which you can program, and a new, side button in front of them that has a little lip that extends back so it’s easy to reach. This button is a preprogrammed as a DPI shift and when pressed it cuts the DPI way down for precise control. The top of the mouse also has a new RGB light strip and looks pretty cool and is programmable through the G Hub software, “all keys are very easily programmed through the software.” Using: The 502X feels great in hand, it’s extremely light, if you like a light mouse for gaming, you’ll love this one. I happen to like a little more heft to my mice and luckily if you happen to have an older mouse that has the “G” 10gram coin you can swap that into the base without a problem and this made it feel just right. The new “Hero” sensor is super sensitive, and you can “if you wanted” adjust it up to 25600, “I tried this once and wow that’s way too fast and sensitive” but you have full control of what you want to set the DPI at just like their past gaming mice. The new lighspeed hybrid switches and seem to be extremely responsive with just the right amount of force needed to activate, “will see how these hold off the static buildup and doubleclicking issues I’ve had in the past with their other mice”. Speed and accuracy while gaming is as good as it gets, and that new shift key really helps a lot when you are using a sniper rifle and want to halve your DPI for precise shooting, “it really helped in Borderlands 3” The scroll wheel has the button for that located behind wheel so you can set the wheel to free spin and behind that is another button that you can cycle through stored onboard profiles saved on the mouse itself. I also like the feel of the white PTFE feet, they are larger than the ones on my other mice and are very smooth sliding on my neoprene mouse pad. Conclusion: If you want a great mouse and do a ton of gaming, “like I do” then you’ll probably love the new 502X Plus. The battery life is outstanding, and their claim of 40hrs is pretty much on. It does have a USB C connector for charging and is compatible with the Powerplay wireless charger “I’ll be grabbing one of those”. So if you are in need a new mouse or just want an extremely good gaming mouse then put the G502X Plus on top of your shopping list.

Logitech has always made very cool gaming products. The G502 wireless gaming mouse is no exception, I'm happy to say! Like most products these days, there is very little literature in the box--'instructions' that are basically pictures, a QR code and the web address. In the box are the mouse, dongle and a good, long braided wire for charging or using the mouse wired. While it's basically 'plug and play', I HIGHLY recommend downloading the Logitech Hub from their website. Having that on your gaming computer enables this mouse to do an amazing amount of things--some cool but not totally necessary, while others are incredibly innovative! The coolest feature that is unnecessary but pretty neat is the lighting scheme. There's a lot to choose from through the hub, from 'random waves' of light to a stationary color of your choosing (and there's almost too many to choose from). Neat, but won't really affect your gaming haha. The other features, however, are pretty amazing. The DPI is adjustable all the way up to 3200!! That is crazy precise, but also a fairly standard feature in gaming mice these days. What isn't standard but is very cool is the adjustable "DPI Shift" button! You can pre-set it for a specific sensitivity for games that have that one crazy moment where you need it to be ultra-sensitive. The best part is, it works REALLY well! Going hand in hand with that is the 'profile' settings that can be saved to the mouse itself! You can save up to five specific profiles and recall them whenever you need to! It makes changing from one game to another very fast, as you don't have to go through and change each individual setting on the mouse. Of course the other buttons are programmable (almost always a feature of gaming mice these days) but having the ability to change them all 'on the fly' with the press of a button is amazing! The wheel is sold as an "ultrafast wheel" and it lives up to it. It's got a satisfying 'click' when you scroll, but even with that the wheel is probably the fastest I've used. This is a wireless mouse, but it also comes with a very long, braided wire for charging or for using--either while you charge, or (my preference) all the time. The mouse is very responsive either way. I barely registered a difference with or without the wire. Maybe just a millisecond slower when using it wireless, but that might just be my brain trying to convince me there's a difference. Personally I have so many dongles right now, and such a bad track record for losing them, that I really appreciate you can use this mouse either way. The cord is easily replaceable as it's a standard cord...in my experience the dongles are not so easy to replace. If you are looking for a great gaming mouse with a TON of useful features you can't go wrong with this one--whether you prefer wired or wireless. In a word, this is quite possibly the best gaming mouse I've ever used!

This is a great mouse for gaming or even just for working. It suits all my needs and has some awesome functions that my other basic mouse didn’t have. The mouse connects via a USB A dongle and does not have BlueTooth. Windows and Mac will let it function like a normal mouse once you plug it in, but you need to download the Logitech G Hub for the more advanced features. Installing the software was easy and I didn’t have any problems with the install. Charging the mouse is done with a USB A to USB C cable. The G Hub software does make it easy to set your functions. The Hub allows you to create different profiles so that you can assign them easily with the G Hub app. One awesome feature is the ability to switch it to on board mode which stores your settings on the device instead of having to connect with the G Hub to change anything. I currently have this off, but nice to know this feature is here. Settings with the software include changing your DPI settings where you can adjust the DPI and even remove the settings that you don’t want. By default, the profile that comes with the mouse has 800, 1200, 1600, 2400, and 3200 DPI. You can only set a maximum of 5 speeds total on the mouse. Assigments allows you to customize the mouse with Windows/Mac commands, Keys, Actions for Discord, Overworld, and OBS, Macros, and System settings for launching applications. I admittedly didn’t use too many of these advanced features, mainly just the OS commands. If you had these options on another gaming mouse, you should be able to use them here. You can change the Lightsync LED to specific colors, animations, brightness, and this will also display your battery life once you change these settings. Even with adjusting the brightness down to a much lower setting the LEDs are still bright enough. There are a few animations like Breathing, Pulsar Point, Ocean Wave, Color Wave, and even a fixed color setting if you don’t want anything highly animated. Obviously these settings will affect the battery life, so for you this will vary. Settings in the G Hub include power consumption and how long it will take for the mouse to full charge. Here you can also check for firmware updates along with an inactivity light setting when the mouse is idle. The scroll wheel took a little getting used to for me because it is much faster compared to my other mouse. You can click a button to give it a mechanical scroll which I prefer not to use, but have for certain situations where I wanted to be mindful of my scrolling. Overall, I am very happy with this mouse. The clicks of the mouse button don’t sound like you’re clicking on a toy and is overall quieter than my other regular mouse. It’s not too loud and not too quiet. I’ve had this mouse for about 5 days and still have plenty of battery power left. You can still use the mouse when it’s charging as well, which is another plus in my opinion.

Just unboxed the Logitech G502 x plus Lightspeed wireless gaming mouse. It comes with the mouse, wireless dongle/receiver, USB/A to USB/C charging cable, user’s guide, and a USB/A female to USB/C female coupler/adapter. Oh, and a sticker and a ‘cool’ shift button cover. First off, this thing fits my hand beautifully. I always seem to press the thumb button, and this has a replaceable magnetic cover that eliminates that button. It works great for me. When I first connected it wirelessly to my PC, I was a bit bummed by the scroll wheel. It’s called Hyperfast scroll and is smooth and zoomed down a webpage. I prefer a slower drop and a click. Well, this mouse has a button on top that does just that. You can choose between the two actions and use what works best based on the task at hand. Nice! If you’re like me, you probably already have the G Hub installed, if not surf over to the manufacturer’s website and download the app. Through the app, you have 5 onboard memory slots, different wave effects, battery level indicator and battery life. At max charge, the app states approximately 39 hours. The app also keeps the mouse up to date with firmware revisions. Currently, mine is on breathing effect w/ an ocean wave. I’ll post a pic or two. The Lightspeed wireless and Hero 25k sensors make this mouse track beautifully. For an old dude like me, I have the active DPI Speed at 1600. You have the option to set it at 800, 1200, 1600, 2400, and 3200. There is a DPI Shift button that will allow temporary alterations or/and it can be used to shift assignments to one or all the keys on the mouse as long as you hold the button down. So overall, this mouse is very comfortable for me to use. I have average to large hands, and I have zero issues with the size. I love the left thumb delete cap and I can always replace it with the button if I choose to make it operable again. The box states there are 13 programmable controls. I’m not sure exactly how, but if it states it, I’m sure it’s possible. This mouse is probably a bit more than I need for the type of games I play, but like I stated, I’m very happy with it and how well it scrolls across dual screens. I’d have no problem recommending this to anyone looking for a great wireless gaming mouse.

Is the venerable 502 improved? Yes! The 502 X Plus is a better 502. The first thing you'll notice is the weight, much lighter than the original, but still feels solid in the hand. The scroll wheel is improved, it's not as clunky and rolls smoother. The feel and texture of the wheel is better in scroll or fly mode. The clicks are a little louder and sound more metallic with the new switch mechanism. The shape is about the same, so not much different there. There are slight differences in the looks, but it feels the same. The lighting has changed, but it's always under your hand. USB-C charging and a long battery life. The DPI switch button is changeable. From direction to type. I like the original insert as it sticks out more and was easier for my thumb to use. With the small insert, which sits flush with the side of the mouse, my thumb kept bumping the side buttons. So, the original insert works better for me. The underside has the same pop out circle to put the USB receiver in for storage. Setup is plug and play. Just take the receiver and plug it into a USB port. It’ll work with generic mouse settings. With G-Hub software, you can unlock all of the options on the mouse. Make sure your G-Hub software is up to date or the mouse will not register with the software. Once G-Hub finds the mouse it walks you through a basic setup. Then at the mouse setup screen you have access to DPI settings, lighting, and what button presses do. Whether to use mouse memory, or custom game settings. The software lets you customize away. You have 13 buttons and can customize most. Lighting effects to DPI settings. The HERO sensor is still up to 25K DPI and the mouse is as responsive as a wired mouse. I had no problems testing it out in games. The lighting changed from the G to a light that crosses the back of the mouse. You can set colors and effects from G-Hub. This mouse is an improvement over the 502, the weight alone is a big difference. All of the functions you would expect from a Logitech G mouse are there when you the G-Hub. The clicks are solid, and the wheel works better. Everything is smooth in operation. The pictures compare the 502 X Plus to the original 502 wireless. The 502 X Plus is always on the right.

I owned the original Logitech G502 and I absolutely loved it. However, in time, it seemed to get less and less of a charge and eventually it would only last a day. I then switched to the ASUS ROG Chakram, which is a heavier mouse, but has a joystick on it that I thought I would utilize in some games. As it turned out I did not really find much use for that and so when I saw this I thought I would love to try it. The fact that it has really cool RGB (yes I'm one of those folks who love RGB) then that was a deal clincher for me. Getting the Logitech G502 X, for those who have had the original, will seem very familiar. The ergonomics are a little better and you get the really, really awesome light on the mouse which is the best RGB integration into a mouse that I have seen yet. And believe it or not it really does not shorten the battery life much either. Speaking of battery life, the mouse, when fully charged, says it will give about 39 hours. I have found so far that, surprisingly, it is actually pretty close to that. I believe I am at about 30 hours now and I am at 26% left. You can adjust how long the light stays on, how bright it is, how long until the light dims, etc so Logitech gives you very fine control over the RGB. You can even turn it off if you're one of those boring and stodgy people who don't like fun. All in all I have been using the G502 X for a week and let me tell you, it lives up to the original G502's claim to the greatest mouse ever. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the absurdly cool, free spinning, mouse wheel, which allows you to move up and down very fast or very finely. It is the cap on an already great mouse. New users may find it a little odd, my wife kept spinning too far, but you can get used to it pretty quick. All in all, perfect ergonomics, fantastic RGB lighting, strong battery life, complete customization of the lights and buttons, this mouse is the clear cut winner and the best mouse a PC gamer, or even just a PC user, can buy right now. As good as the ASUS ROG Chakram is this is better. A CLEAR CUT BEST MOUSE ON THE PC.

I have finally stumbled across an absolutely killer gaming mouse that has left me with 0 complaints. The mouse is light, comfortable, ergonomic, and has plenty of buttons which can all be fully customizable with macros - or productivity shortcuts. There is rubber on the sides, but smooth textures where no grip is needed. I absolutely love the DPI shift button. Not only is it more convenient than the typical DPI selector button, but the shape can be adjusted - or it can be capped off which essentially removes the button. I have fairly small hands and thanks to the physical button options - I am able to reach it without issue. I also love the option to spin the mouse wheel freely in hyperfast mode, or quickly switch to a ratcheted mode for more precise (and tactile) scrolling. The button is easy to reach and actuate. I also find that tilting the mouse wheel to the left and right is more responsive than most other gaming mice - to the point where I can actually use the feature without worry of accidental activation. So far the battery life has been excellent, but I very much appreciate that Logitech has created a Powerplay wireless charging mat that can keep the mouse charged indefinitely. The wireless charging mouse-pad is pretty expensive (at over $100), but it’s a cool and useful option. The mouse isn’t overloaded with macro buttons, but every button it does have is well within reach and is simple to modify/customize with the Logitech G Hub. And, because the mouse can save multiple profiles, I find myself using the G502X for work - changing the buttons from macros over to productivity shortcuts. The mouse does not have Bluetooth connectivity as an option, but the USB-A Lightspeed pro-grade wireless adapter can be stored securely inside of the mouse - so travel is simple and swapping to a new device/computer is quick and easy.

I'm a fan of Logitech mice and an overall fan of Logitech in general. This mouse comes with a crazy high price tag and at first glance offers a lot of bells and whistles in return. After using it for gaming for a week, I'm not sure if how I use the mouse is worthy of that price tag. I've really never met a Logitech mouse I didn't like and if you take the price out of the equation then that still holds true for the G502 X Plus. What do you get with this mouse that you don't get with other gaming mice? For starters, the overall look is really cool. Rich satin black body with gloss black trim. Very sharp. The lighting affect is really nice and you're able to customize the colors any way you like. You can literally choose from any color you want and what's more, you can save different setups to use whenever you want to. You can also save the setups for select games you play. I was able to save a setup for DOOM Eternal, and I can customize the button assignments for the game and the color I want to use. What's more, you can actually save the setup to the mouse itself so the settings you save will be there if you take your mouse with you. Ok, so that's pretty cool. The super slick inserts on the bottom side work really well and the mouse does slide amazingly well. There's an on/off button as well on the bottom. As far as the buttons are concerned, you have the standard left, right and mouse wheel (also a button). On the left top side there are also two additional buttons along side the left mouse button. These are assignable, but their default is to raise and lower the DPI mouse movement amount. The mouse wheel has a button behind it that lets you switch from a ratcheting to free spinning wheel. Behind that is an additional button that allows you to cycle through your saved color scheme/button assignments. But wait, there's more. There are also the two side buttons for your thumb and a DPI Shift button in front of your thumb. I found the top left buttons useful for gaming, but try as I might, I just couldn't find a use for switching my movement DPI let alone using the shift button to temporarily change my DPI. While playing, I found the shift button to be extremely annoying, and I was inadvertently hitting it all the time until I used the extra button included in the package. The alternate button really just amounts to a cover for the button, if you don't want to use it. Thankfully, this was included. Now I have more thumb space. But even with that being said, I was constantly hitting the side two mouse buttons when I didn't mean to. I think this is because they're just big. It would have been better if they were half the size so you could find them when you needed them but otherwise, you didn't have to change your grip to avoid hitting them. While I like the mouse wheel rubber texture, the wheel itself is still plastic which doesn't allow for a great spin in free wheel mode. It would have been much better if it was a metal wheel with a little weight to it. I have other Logitech mice that have metal wheels and they work so much better than the plastic ones. They also give the mouse a more high end look which is something a mouse in this price range should have. The charge lasts quite a while, I've only needed to charge it up once since I got it. I does come with an awesome charging cable. USB-C to USB-A. It's a very flexible rubber material and it's six feet long. They also include a USB-A to USB-C adapter if you need it along with a G logo sticker and some quick start guides. The app has to be downloaded from the Logitech site however you're on your own to find it. There are also nothing in the way of instructions on how to use the app. It took me some time to get used to the way it worked and how to save my setups. Instructions would have been nice. All in all, it's a smooth mouse with plenty of customization options. If you have small hands I think you might like this mouse better than a person who has larger hands.
