Logitech G502 Hero K/DA High Performance Gaming Mouse - Hero 25K Sensor, 16.8 Million Color LIGHTSYNC RGB, 11 Programmable Buttons, On-Board Memory - Official League of Legends KDA Gaming Gear

Externally, other than the colors and a thinner non-braided cable, this is identical to the venerable G502 Hero. Some forum posts suggest the K/DA G502 Hero and newer G502 Heroes have improved switches for the main buttons (hopefully resolving the double-clicking issue - more on that later), but there’s no way to tell without taking it apart and voiding the warranty. Side by side by side with my 2+ year old G502 Hero and a newer G502 Hero, the old switches do sound louder and feel more clicky, suggesting there has been a change. There are already plenty of articles out there if you want to get into the deeper technical aspects of the G502 Hero. From a usability standpoint: - In order to use the DPI shift button (or whatever function you assign to it), the one in front of your thumb, you’ll need to use a palm grip and/or have medium/large hands. I use a claw grip, have short fingers, and can’t reliably reach it. I don’t think it’s reachable at all with a fingertip grip. - Love the free scroll wheel, more so in regular use than gaming. Zipping up/down a lengthy page with a flick of a finger is *chef’s kiss*. I hate using mice without it. - The G HUB software has gotten a bit bloated over the years, previously taking up a lean 21.6 MB of RAM before the latest update, which ballooned it to about 110 MB. However, you can use the mouse without G HUB running once you load your settings to the mouse’s on board memory. In comparison, Razer’s Synapse software (along with some mandatory “features” you can’t turn off) takes up about 149 MB, even if all you want is a static color for a keyboard backlight. - The blue plastic of the three thumb buttons doesn’t quite match the blue of the two buttons below the mouse wheel. From a quick glance, it’s not really noticeable, but upon closer examination (for review purposes), the color is slightly off. Not sure if that’s intentional, or if a batch of buttons slipped through QA. - I actually prefer the non-braided cable. It’s lighter and more supple, so ultimately less noticeable compared to the old thicker braided cable. In decades of gaming, mouse cables have never been a point of failure for me. I’ve been using a standard G502 Hero for a few years, and some things that’ll likely happen with this near identical version: - The rubber grips get a bit less grippy over time/use. Additionally, the grooves in them tend to collect gunk, especially if your hands get sweaty. Maybe a pattern with wider and/or rounded grooves (to minimize nooks and crannies and right angles) would help with that and/or make it easier to clean. Some modders add a bit of grip tape to fix this. - The dreaded double-clicking issue. If this K/DA version does indeed have better switches, this point may be irrelevant. Otherwise, if you dig around a bit, you’ll find this is not a rare occurrence with the G502 Hero and I’ve had it happen myself. Basically, the switches on the left/right mouse buttons have a tendency to fail, sometimes double-clicking near instantly, sometimes unclicking/re-clicking while you’re holding it (making things like selecting or drag&drop impossible), or sometimes not registering clicks at all. When it’s bad, the mouse is unusable. To be fair, Logitech support sent a replacement (for my old G502 Hero) with no hassle.

First off. This mouse is heavy. And I like that. And thats coming from someone who previously used one of the lightest mice in the world. The weight is well balanced and helps control aim really well. The cable, is excellent. Its super lightweight and flexible and I cant even tell its their when hard-core gaming. All the mouse buttons are freely reprogrammable easily in the G-Hub software, and is extremely useful. In the end 10/10 from me. And the design of it is awesome. It being K/DA limited edition is amazing too, and it looks fantastic!

All these gamers and their braided cables, they are ugly, catch lint, and catch on edges. This mouse alone is worth the purchase for the sensor coupled with the smooth cable alone. Award winning sensor, awesome color scheme, and smooth cable. Im down.

I have used this mouse for about a year now, and I must say I am impressed. I play league of legends and this mouse takes all the abuse so well. It is pinpoint accurate, easy to play with, has an unlockable scroll wheel, and the macros are in great spots for my hand. I have very long fingers, and this mouse does really well for me.

A huge legal legends fan for well since the game started there was an alpha to the game before it actually launched for everyone and I’ve played both of been with the community for since they’ve been around and I’m still going to support them every every step of the way

great mouse, click scroll or freewheel scroll with a metal mouse wheel, programmable dpi settings, and able to use additional weights to make it as heavy or light as you want. Comfortable with palm or claw grip, and looks really too. two thumbs up

Either logitech changed their G502 recently or the K/DA version is different. The click is noticeably louder and feels very different to the G502 that Ive been using for many years now (5+). Theres very slightly more pressure required and the click overall feel is different. The colorway is fun and the cable is also not a braided cable but rather a soft plastic one. Over time Ive found the braided cable wears down and collects dust as it disintegrates so I dont mind that change as much. Other than the click, the scroll, other buttons, function pretty much the same but time will tell if I can get another 5 years out of this edition as well.

G502 is my favorite mouse. Amazon delivery is very fast, but the Courier only knocked on the door once and left, leaving my delivery on the ground. I hope the Courier of Amazon can let me sign to confirm receipt of the goods before leaving.

I absolutely love this mouse, looks great, very responsive, ultra low latency. I like heavy mice, my son likes them light the great thing about this mouse is that you can customize it very easily just by popping open the magnetic base and add or remove the weights. I have the exact same mouse but all black in color and wireless with a charging pad. Problem is my son always leaves it off the charging pad and finds it dead once and a while. Only once and a while because there wireless one is amazingly easy going on the battery. But I was surprised to hear my son was really excited to finally have a wired mouse no more stress with a low battery mouse! The mouse is loaded with programmable buttons that are easy to use and the mouse wheel can be clicky or free spinning with a click of a button (I love this feature). My son says black is going out of style and white is more in for your computer and peripherals. So this mouse is right up his alley. He is soo stoked to get it and he is happy to give me all the black colored plastic peripherals.

If youve had the regular hero this is the same great design with a very nice skin to it.
