Logitech G502 HERO Review: Best Budget Gaming Mouse?

★★★★★ Best wired mouse that I’ve used. So damned expensive!It is a very good mouse though. I like Logitech mouses and keyboards.It has a good weight, and fits my man hands better than most other mice.It is responsive.I’ve used many mice in my time. The MX Master is my favourite, but it is wireless, and I prefer the cable connection. This one is the best wired mouse I’ve used. My old one wore out after a few years of excessive use. The buttons started glitching. These new buttons are meant to be longer lasting as more reliable.I liked the weights on my old one. They don’t do the adjustable weight on this version, but the mouse is still fairly weighty and substantial.In my opinion Logitech is still king.

★★★★★ g502x Wired, AMAZING mouse. SO after purchasing the wired version of the g502x and using it for a while i have some things to say about it.There is a lot on this mouse to like, and some minor things that could be improved but overall fantastic mouse. I never personally owned the original g502 but i used it often so ill try to compare them the best i can.Pros:-amazing comfort and shape for long use times-very good accuracy and response time with a 1000hrz polling rate-completely customizable settings for al of the programmable buttons and ability to change dpi levels-is capable of storing 2 entire profiles with different buttons and dpi levels programmed for each one changeable via the G9 button (basically instead of programming a mouses buttons once you can have 2 separate profiles you can swap in between.-the two profiles can be stored onboard the mouse and used with any pc with onboard memory-optical switches give a faster response time and make faulty double clicking impossible-dpi shift button can be changed or removed to become flush with mouse.-infinity scroll wheel-lightest g502 ever weighing less than a g203 at only 84 grams still keeping the same great build quality. massive difference from g502s lowest weight at 132gramsCons:-mouse skates are scratchy brand new and take a few hours of use to become perfectly smooth with round edges-dpi light has been moved in front of the scroll wheel and now changes color instead of the shifting led on the g502 that was on the side, which for most people including me is a pro but for those who are colorblind might be hard to tell what dpi you are on.-no rgb (which for me is arguably a pro)-no more adjustable weightsoverall this is an amazing mouse and my favorite g502 ever but to those who miss the rgb and weights of the normal g502 it might not be. personally never cared for either of those features so I consider this mouse an awesome upgrade to the original g502.

★★★★☆ Great quality but not quite perfect. Like most Logitech mice, it's great quality, though this one has some minor issues.It's comfortable and fits in the hand well, though the default thumb button gets in the way constantly. It comes with an easy replacement that removes the thumb button, but the instructions on it were incredibly unclear on how to remove it. Fortunately it was easy to figure out that it's just held on magnetically and can be removed with ease and replaced just as easily.The G-Hub interface for setting up the key bindings and DPI is... clunky and unintuitive at best. Like basic level UI problems, like... clicking on the universal cog wheel that says "Device settings" on mouseover is where you'd think you'd go for changing device settings. You would be wrong. That involves clicking on the picture of the mouse itself which doesn't have any feedback on mouse rollover. There are a large number of other clunky user interface issues with the software part, but it is effective, just annoying to use. Fortunately you don't have to use it very often.While some people really want the lighter mouse design and will be pleased with the g502x being substantially lighter than previous models, I can't help but think it feels like a hollow piece of cheap plastic, and I really miss the g500's insert for modular weights. Having just changed over from an mx518, it feels "too light" by far and will take some serious getting used to, but that's purely a personal preference thing. Just take it into account when purchasing is all.These are relatively minor nitpicks though. Everything else about it is great, but the nature of the problems I have are the dividing line between "very good" and "truly great" is all. Still a very solid 4/5 but I couldn't in good conscience call it a 5/5 mouse when it's missing features from older models and has such a terrible user interface for the setup software.Also note this particular model is the wired mouse, so it has no battery life, so that doesn't really make sense to have as a rating at all. Supposedly the wireless version has 130+ hours "minimum" of battery life, so that's pretty amazingly good, but I can't verify that myself as mine is only the wired version as I personally dislike wireless mice because they have a bad habit of losing power when I'm in the middle of something important.

★★★★★ Fantastic mouse. Perfect mouse for me. Useful buttons, I love the mouse wheel tilt. Admittedly the side/additional top buttons don't feel super high quality but they're still working fine after quite heavy use since I purchased this mouse.

★★★★★ Améliorée et de très bonne qualité. Souris grandement améliorée à comparer à sa prédécesseur. Très bonne qualité, légère, le dpi est ajustable, les boutons sont rapides et facilement accessibles et la roue de défilement est de bonne qualité. Pas de led, même pas du logo, à part celui qui indique le dpi de la souris et il ne reste pas constamment allumé. Il me semble que pour le prix ils devraient en ajouter pour bien voir le dpi comme sur l'ancien modèle.

★★★★★ A timeless classic made even better (lighter) for 131 grip. This is the absolute perfect mouse for my 131 grip. I developed this habit using Logitech MX518. The only other mouse that I used for prolonged period of time was Superlight G Pro X that developed a fault with its scroll wheel after 8 months. G502X also has another one of my favourite features - infinite scroll wheel. It still works perfectly even though now they use less metal in it compared to the G502 Hero and Proteus Core. The reason why they did this is to shave off 30 grams, which makes this mouse very lightweight considering its size and number of buttons. Highly recommended.

★★★★★ Es exactamente lo que esperarías de este mouse, solo que si lo consigues en alguna oferta no dudes en comprarlo

★★★★★ Really good

★★★★★ This is a great mouse. This mouse has tons of customization and it works great. It has fantastic value. The size fits nicely. If you enjoy the Logitech 502 Hero, you will almost certainly find the G502 X Plus a winner. The buttons work really good, the clicking sounds are pleasant, and this mouse has an infinite scrolling wheel that you can activate, which is a nice feature.Pros:- PTFE mouse feet for very smooth glide across mouse pad- The new optical hybrid switches are incredibly fast, it has a nice responsive click and actuation. They should last longer than conventional mechanical switches and help to correct double-clicking issues.- No RGB lighting headaches- This mouse wakes from sleep mode instantly.- It's noticeably lighter, which is something most gamers are looking for. It has good aim and stability.- Comfortable ergonomic shape, it fits my hand well (large) even in different positions, it is light which helps to reduce wrist fatigue. I can press every button easily without looking for them, the scroll wheel, DPI adjustments, and thumb buttons are easy to find and comfortable.- Great button feel- I've had a couple issues with Logitech mice in the past, but Logitech has always been easy to work with to get a replacement or to help solve my issue, it's important that a company stand behind their products and Logitech has been stellar in that department, and it's one of the reasons I don't hesitate to buy their products, not to mention that they are often the best I can find.Cons:- No backup gliders- The new Logitech G Software kinda sucks, it does OK, it can auto-sense games, you can copy profiles, but it has several general flaws, including if it detects a new game it generates that game's default setting that you CAN NOT CUSTOMIZE ahead of time. The software UI sucks. Also, it would be nice to have a default mapping/DPI setting for a specific game one might like. Also, it spams notifications that are hard to turn off. The old software was much easier to use.Overall, it's a great mouse with a lot going for it. I'm enjoying using it vs my old mouse, and I love all the features it offers, which helps to look past any small shortcomings.I would recommend this mouse for everyone:Competitive gamers who want an all-in-one mouseCasual gamersOffice workersArtistsPublicIt's a great mouse for a lot of use cases, which is why I've given it 5 stars. It's not perfect, but it is a great all around lightweight mouse that can be used in just about any situation.

★★★★★ ممتازه

★★★★☆ it's only been a few days. but up until now it functions great.there's only 2 notes though.the wire is not braided and don't know if it will last because it's kinda feel cheap.and the mouse itself feels a bit light. i wish there was a way to add weights to it when needed like the older model.but everything else is great specially the free scroll wheel
