> 3 dayThe Logitech g hub software is terrible, it takes a few seconds for the mouse to wake up and switch to the DPI settings it was set to, the only “fix” is by switching it to the on-board memory mode. This bug alone completely ruined my experience with this mouse. Also, it still uses usb micro b in 2022….. come on Logitech, you can do better. Update after about a week of usage: ******************************************************************************** Keep in mind I am comparing this mouse to my MX Master 3 So, its being evaluated as productivity and light gaming mouse ******************************************************************************** The good: decently comfortable for my large hand, good sensor and satisfying clicks. It is definitely 200% better at gaming than my mx master 3. The ergonomic is decent, not bad, however I much prefer the mx master 3. Charging time is decent, and battery life is not bad too. The bad (things that I dont like): the scroll wheel is terrible in comparison to the mx master 3, you have to manually switch between the ratcheting scroll and infinity scroll with a physical button, they shouldve used the adaptive infinity scroll wheel on the mx master 3. Also I sure miss the side scroll wheel and the thumb button on the side. Also no Bluetooth and the bug I mentioned previously is annoying. Overall, my conclusion is while g502 lightspeed is a great gaming mouse, mx master 3 is still a significantly better productivity mouse (duh, obviously). An mx master with the guts of a g502 lightspeed would be the perfect mouse for me, Id love to see a performance version of mx master in the future.

> 3 dayIve only had this mouse for about a month, but I really like it. Im a guy who gets really frustrated you can feel the delay between moving a mouse and seeing it move on the screen. With this, it seems instant. I like a mouse with a bit of weight, so I added all of them. Also looks cool and feels solid. No batteries to replace either - just plug it in every few days to ensure its charged. G-Suite software is easy enough to configure to tweak the purpose of the buttons. I think you can do it at the game/app level too, but I havent messed with that. Only gripe is that you have to use Logitechs proprietary wireless charger. Ive got a number of wireless chargers I wish I could use, but to no avail. Maybe one day someone will reverse engineer it and we can make a DIY one or something.

> 3 dayWhen the G903 came out, I was pretty stoked. Lots of new technology and promise all packed into one platform, and great reviews. It turns out that no matter how good a mouse is, one compromise can turn it into a nightmare. It also turns out that if you put switches into a mouse that quickly start double-firing is pretty bad too, but I digress. The compromise that ruined the G903 for me was making it ambidextrous. What? you say, thats not a bad thing! Well, I reply, take your hands, and lay them on a flat surface in front of you, and relax. What do you feel? Unless you are not built like most, youll find that the weight of your hand rests more on one side of your palm; Left side for the left, and right side for the right. So, when you make a mouse ambidextrous, you make a mouse with a symmetric profile. It didnt take long before I realized that I wasnt going to be able to keep my hand on the mouse in a gaming hold for very long before cramps started in. It was like having someone twist my wrist. So, despite the great stuff they put into this thing, it would have been infinitely better to create a left and right handed version. Enter the revamped G502! My corded version of this mouse is still in use in my household more than a decade after I first bought it, but Im looking for a wireless mouse for reasons I need not go into. I can say now that they seem to have brought all the good stuff from the G903 to the G502 Hero Lightspeed. The wheel that used to bug me because it was so stiff on the first G502 now feels much more like the G903. Its even a bit easier to spin and side-click. The DPI buttons (which are still in an awkward place, which is why its still just near perfection) are no longer mushy, so thats a plus, and of course its wireless, has the updated sensors, will work on my Lightspeed mat, and, just for the shiny factor, had a full RGB logo. The parts that made this mouse the most popular gaming mouse (Logitech IMHO EVER made) are still there. So, when, my gamer friends, you are trying to pick between the two, let me urge you to save yourself what may be a hundred dollar mistake, and pass the G903 over for the reliable old G502 form with the new G903 technology built in. Youll thank me later.

> 3 dayIve been using a Logitech G502 Proteus Core for a couple of years, and Ive been wanting a wireless mouse for ages however, I had been hesitant to switch to anything else because I loved that G502 Proteus Core. Then, this mouse came out. I knew it was time to upgrade. I get a mouse that looks, feels and performs identically to my Proteus Core. No, scratch that, BETTER than my Proteus Core. Except now no more wire wrangling. No more wire catching on the edge of a table or needing to tape it down. Except the sensor is faster and better than my G502PC, and the wireless mouse is somehow LIGHTER than the wired version. What kind of space age magic is this!? When I got it at first, I was actually a little disappointed. I had been excited for this new, fancy mouse that was going to step my game up. But then I got it and it just felt exactly like my old one. It felt like nothing has changed. The wait to use it came to a somewhat anticlimactic end. But then I thought about it and realized..... IT FEELS EXACTLY LIKE MY OLD ONE. I got literally exactly what I loved before, but this time with RGB lighting and no cord! What had I expected? I got literally exactly what I wanted, and it felt like home. And the battery life, of my goodness, the battery life. Ive been using this mouse since mid Early/mid-May. I probably use my mouse for about 1 to 4 hours a day, sometimes every other day depending on schedule. I charged this mouse to 100% on my first day of ownership. I havent charged it since, and my battery currently reads 64%. Incredible. Over a month of regular and consistent use, with lighting on (at about 60-75% brightness, purple) and I havent even gotten it to half charge. That tells me Ive probably got another month or so of battery life to go! I have been BEYOND satisfied with this mouse. I only had one minor hiccup. Initially I put the wireless receiver in the rear of the tower, straight into the motherboards primary USB 3 port. Unfortunately, I noticed that I would get occasional stuttering and hitching with the mouse cursor. After a bit I noticed that it only happened when my cell phone was on my computer desk in front of my mousepad. I relocated the receiver to the USB3 slot on my Corsair K60 keyboard, problem solved. I havent had one stutter or hitch since. I think my cell phones WiFi signal was causing some form of interference. I could reproduce the problem with my cell phone location every time, so Im confident in what the issue was. BEYOND satisfied with this product. If you have ever used any of the Logitech G502 line - or mice of a similar shape - this product is an absolute NO BRAINER purchase.

> 3 dayAfter almost 2 years of use (and abuse) this mousepad is still going strong. I use this with a g502 and the response time is great and have no issues. The pad itself can get scuffed and dirty fairly easily but its not an issue.

Greater than one weekI bought this mouse to replace a Razor Mamba which was the worst mouse Ive ever used. The difference in quality is insane. I went from a mouse that was unusable on mac, and poorly performant on Windows, to a mouse that couldnt perform better. The customizable weights, the scroll wheel, the position, and function of the buttons, are all perfect. It sits next to, and holds its own with a Swiftpoint Z gaming mouse that cost more than twice as much. I couldnt be happier with this purchase.

> 3 daySo I have both the wired and wireless version of this mouse and I love it. Its comfortable to hold and adding the weights gave it just enough to where its easier for me to aim. The Wireless G502 also mixes well with the Powerplay pad basicly eliminates the battery issues.

> 3 dayThe older wired G502 was the first gaming mouse Ive ever purchased for myself. At the time, I mostly played games like Counter Strike: Source and Unreal Tournament. Years later theyve been making changes to the gaming market that this mouse fails to innovate on, but perhaps for a good reason. Ive moved on to lighter, flashier mice. From the Razer Viper Ultimate, to the Steelseries Aerox 3. I thought the weight was the difference between flicking for headshots and a loss... Turns out Im wrong. I bought the Lightspeed Wireless. The nostalgia came back to me. The extra weight from what I was used to seemed a little jarring at first. But I moved the sensitivity down a little, played some games and I was just in a groove so good that I made this my main mouse. Looking back at the (lack there of) innovation, they kept it simple. Same infinite scroll wheel, same shape, same weight system. The internals changed, Its wireless and has a new sensor with a battery. The only thing I wished they changed was making the move to USB Type-C, but to me that doesnt matter as much as you will be charging this maybe around once a month or so. Compared to my Aerox 3, the wake up time was instant. A feature I didnt think Id care about but it makes the desktop experience way better in the long run. The ergonomics I believe are what make this mouse the best for gaming for me. The little flare on the side that the mouse gives for your thumb is second to none.
