Never understand why people seem to care about the weight of a mouse, it doesn't really matter how heavy it is you get used to it over time. I've always liked heavier mouses more but I guess that's just me

"Dont buy this" proceeds to point out tons of things i like in a mouse. You just made me more sure about the purchase, which i really appreciate! Really like your straight forward (and very honest, thankfully) style of review!

Had mine for a day now, couple notables: - The DPI shift buttons are the main feature of the G502, second only to the grip style. Not for the ability to swap dpi on the fly, but for the button placement. Swap those buttons to keys that you can use in game. Ya'll not doing this are missing out, heavily. The G502 is the "best selling mouse ever made" and not the basilisk. What's the only difference? The DPI buttons. USE THEM. The larger size on the g7 also allows you to hit it with your thumb comfortably. This is great as I use it for push to mute and grenade/gadget depending on the game, and freeing up the pointer finger is useful. - The Scroll UP/DOWN is now customizable in GHUB. This is actually fairly huge. Bunny hopping and infinite scroll wheel shooting? I'm sure there are other uses. I've only made use of it in Warframe so far, but I'll be keeping an eye out for other uses. - The weight. I'm throwing this out there for the people not pretending to be "pro gamers" and actually value comfort over a .01 percent higher k/dr. The g502x is markedly lighter. To the point that is slightly uncomfortable. I have both the OG lightspeed and the X in front of me, and I'll definitely be taking up the advice of swapping the bottom weight plate. If you are in it for a lighter mouse, but want the comfort of the g502 layout, this is probably a huge plus for you. Not for me. If I didn't have the extra weight plate, I would be *weighing* (lol) the pros and cons as far as keeping the OG lightspeed around. - The RGB strip is awkward and noticeable in the palm. I don't like it. It's not a make it or break it for me, but it is unusual. - The thumb rest area feels shorter. I'm unsure if this is a pro or a con. - The lack of a gap at the front of the mouse between the left and right mb is annoying. I liked the gap. It's been a day and I've tried to click that area multiple times now when regrabbing the mouse because it sits in the same location as muscle memory puts my middle finger from the OG lightspeed. Not a huge thing, but it is weird. - It is talked about in the video, but the mouse wheel is a huge improvement. Like HUGE improvement. I have hated the g502 mouse wheel since I first picked up the OG in 2014, despite it becoming my favorite mouse for nearly a decade. This is significant, imo. The X fixed all the issues I've had with the 502, but added some others. So far I'm happy with my purchase.

the fact that they made a swappable flat button for the side button is great, really one of the only complaints that i had with the previous version.

I have been using the foremost DPI switch on my g402 (g502x otw) for years. For basically any game that has a melee/fast melee, e.g. melee in Halo, switch to knife in CS etc. It has all been bound to that button, nothing has felt more natural for me. That and using the side "sniper" button to switch weapons.

After using the og 502 I couldn’t imagine using any other mouse, I love the two side buttons next to the left click, hopefully getting this x upgrade for Christmas 🙏🏼

I bought mine (x plus) about 2 weeks ago, and upgraded from the 502 corded version. I like this one FAR better, and I thought the 502 was great. I like the rgb, it’s comfy, light, and highly responsive.

Great review. Is there anything one can do to protect the rubber coating before ever starting to use the mouse? On my old lighspeed it's worn down all the way to the plastic. I'd be happy if there was something skin-safe that could turn the rubber into a hard, resilient surface.

Thanks for the review! I've got this one with the g915 on black friday for a dime and as a casual gaming gardener, the weight is completely unnoticeable for me. My skills wouldn't be any less clumsy with a full fletched gaming mouse. Where did you get the triangular mousepad btw.?!?! I love it!

Hi. Thank you for the video. Can you turn off dpi changing buttons during the game in order not to misclick them? Can you put another function on sniper button? Like melee/stab?

This Vs the new basilisk pro is a verrrrry close one. I adore having a DPI light, and a DPI scroll

As a 502 hero user, you've given me everyreason why I should buy the new one. Thanks 👍

The G502 X Plus is simply a more expensive option to push the price of the G502X up while making it seem cheaper at the same time. I forgot the marketing term for this practice, but many companies sadly do this

I just want the G203 to get this treatment and new switches.

the only difference to write home about the g502 x is the new optical switches which should _FINALLY_ be resilient to the double-clicking issues that have plagued their mice for years now. i've had an optical switch keyboard for about 3 years now and it finally solved chattering compared to normal mx cherry.

If the cord on the wired version is light enough like the ones used on ultra light mice, then I feel that would be the best edition. 89 grams is definitely noticeably lighter than 100 grams and the price difference is huge too.

Got the G502X Lightspeed version in black (my first ever G502) and i'm freakin loving it. The only thing that stopped me buying a G502 before was the non-removable sniper&thumb button on the side. Absolutely hated it. Now that they've pulled a razer on that thing (on Basilisk Ultimate it is removable), got it ASAP. Using a Razer Basilisk Ultimate on the side and i must say that mouse has a very unstable scrolling experience. You cannot switch weapons in games only relying on the scroll wheel steps because it is not registering scrolls until you push the wheel a little bit further in order to complete its registering... When i opened it up i saw that it's using a cheap potentiometer system rather than an Optical encoder like Logi products. And that potentiometer is wiggling back and forth as you scroll the wheel causing those scroll skips. I've managed to tuck a toothpick (yes a freakin toothpick) in the enclosure in order to prevent it to wiggle, and it improved the scroll skips to a managable degree. If anyone is interested in it i can send photos of it. Anyway, stay away from Basilisk ultimate and V2. Stick to G502X.

So my issue with this mouse is unwanted inputs from the scroll wheel. Playing apex I have my forward movement and jump bound to the scroll wheel for wall jumps and tap strife which is great for the free spin wheel but it get annoying when I go to lift up my mouse to reset center the mouse wheel is so sensitive that it causes me to jump at unwanted times and gets me kill more times than not. Is there a way to decrease the sensitivity or stop this without having the wheel locked. Any input from anyone would be helpful.

I use the rgb on my 502 ONLY to have a visual representation of my current profile, so if my profile wasn't changed while starting a game I'd instantly know and will be able to turn it on manually. Other than that I also don't care for rgb. So if I want to have that feature I'd have to go for the rgb version, because the other ones have 0 lights to indicate that.

My only complaint about the RGB on the X Plus is that the Logitech "G" logo isn't RGB as well, it should be

Do you have any kailh 8.0 switches to compare with the new logitech opticals? How is the weight between the two?

the g502 was an amazing mouse. you could remap those keys to other buttons like numpad controls on caming profiles and change profiles for like editing or stuff. those dpi buttons are useless so i remapped them everywhere and now i use then all the time. feeling like the 502 x is just a refined version. also can't live with a mouse again now with less buttons hahaha

I've had my G502 for 6 years and have no idea what you are talking about "sticky" rubber sides. They are worn, but perfectly contoured to my hand like a leather glove - not sticky for me at all. The heavy weight is the real problem, which the new G502x fixes (89g).

what charging connection does the standard 502 have? doesnt the 502x plus have a type c charger?

Man, no weights was a deal breaker for me since i use them on my g502.

I’ve had mine for a while now, main complain is the scroll wheel, dpi buttons. The free scroll wheel is something I don’t enjoy purely because I do play shooters, can’t be y-y 360 no scoping everybody ya know? I also find myself accidentally changing dpi and I have yet to change it in the profile (postal employee, sorry sometimes just wanna game) so I know it’s more of my fault than the mouse, but unlucky I have to change it. Overall though, I do enjoy the mouse, I wish I would have invested in the death adder v3 purely because I loved the v2 so much. But the mouse after I disable the scroll wheel, the mouse feels great in my hand as I have larger hands than most, the clocks feel great for my bigger palm grip, because I push towards the end of the buttons, the battery lasts me hours and I charge maybe weekly. I did have a lot of customization to it as we, so it does feel very Personal when you make a profile. It does have add-able weights to make heavier but although I find it fine. Overall I would say 7-10. Overall great feel besides scroll wheel, and goddamn was it expensive lol

On the logitechg website it says it has 13 programable buttons, but I only count 11, the same number as the original g502 lightspeed?

Hi, is the sniper button programmable ?

Funny thing is, I bought the G502 X the moment it was available and.. while the weight difference and new feet are excellent features... That "RGB strip line" is so annoying for my hand. It gnaws into the palm, making palm grip uncomfortable.

As someone who still uses controller to play games and is becoming an animator/3d artist, I'm totally satisfied 😌

how's the rattle/wobble on the scroll wheel when moving side to side ?

Good review, recently making the switch from Cougar to Logitech mice and you've helped a lot, thanks a lot man

Hi, do you know how to clean the sides of the old version? :c

Nice video, Thanks what is that 4:59 its a mousepad ? If yes please give me The name of that Looks good😊

I use the rgb on the regular g502 to let me know if my per game profile did actually fire off. When my profile is in desktop mode I have the lights on the mouse set to red and when its running a custom profile for a game its green. Ghub is so trash and unreliable this became necessary to tell what profile the mouse is running. So rgb for looks is unnecessary but at least with my standard g502 and other peripherals like my keyboard rgb does a great job of communicating what color coded profile is running. So rgb can be practical. When it comes to my peripherals I couldn't live without it.

I love all my g5xx mice.. Especially my g502 lightspeed. Honestly the best mouse Ive ever owned. I also personally love the rubber on the mouse, as it makes it feel more premium and definitely does improve grip. I had to add this, when blowing air on the mouse and it sounds like a Lambo reving and taking off, your words "just doesn't have the same umph as the old one " had me dying.

Can the color of the single LED on the wired version be changed? All the photos just show green.

Not a single reviewer mentions that it's wider. I have big hands and I didn't know about this mouse until I tried it the other day, it's not bad! Matter fact, I like it more than the Corsair Ironclaw which was the best for big hands a year ago, but the scroll wheel breaks easily on it.

Does this mouse go sleep after sometime , if not used? Can we modify the time to go sleep?

you seem like a smart person, what do you think of the razor viper mini?

I agree, If you don't care about a light that will drain battery go buy a lightspeed version insteed. And that's going to be my choice in the future.

If you’re coming from the G502 Lightspeed Edition you can change the bottom cover that holds the USB dongle on the G502X(+) (which is pure crap plastic compared to the rest of the mouse) with the one from the G502 Lightspeed that has the two weight slots in it (and is much better quality plastic) and you get a pretty good feeling mouse that isn’t so heavy that movement feels sluggish, but not so light to the point you feel like you could chuck the mouse off your desk.

so i added the g502 x plus to my collection and so far i love it.. also have the g303 shroud edition, and just got rid of my black superlight and picked up the magenta one.. its hard to pick a favorite lol..

Not only rgb is difference. Also G502 lightspeed has micro usb instead of type c like 502plus has.

I have got the wired one. Its great and finally light. I had old one.

I have tremours in both of my hands and I basically can't use light mice (and it sucks) I also really like the way it looks coming from a mx master 3 its nice

Coming off a wired G502 Hero that’s a several year old tank, I purchased a wireless G502 X without the RGB. Love the hero, so I’m sure I’ll love this too. All of these mouse videos I’ve watched featuring lightweight mice, with two side buttons seem to be geared for the competitive shooter market. I tried that route, but I vastly prefer being able to load plenty of in game actions to my mouse.

interesting my wired none rgb 502x cost about £55 and I bought for the single function it has that no other Logitech mouse has, and that is the mouse wheel scroll can be bound to buttons, It was possible to do with other Logitech mice but only through script. But.. although I have NEVER had a problem with any Logitech mouse double clicking, the 502X is the only mouse I have ever owned that fails to click on a very regular occurrence

Is the 502 still powerplay compatible ?

I’ve been using Corsair mice all my pc life, i recently jumped to the Logitech g502 x plus and it’s a night and day difference, I don’t know about other Logitech mice but this mouse mops the floor with all the Corsair mice I’ve had and used. My personal favorite out of all the Corsair mice was the dark core pro rgb cause of the heft and reliability. But this mouse, just wow, guess I’m using Logitech mice from now on, idk about keyboards yet tho lol

which is best redragon sniper or glorious o

So if I have the old classic g502 mouse is the sensor or anything make it worth it to upgrade?

RgB is more reasonable on wired version but it lacks one 😵‍💫

I put some lubricant oil on the front wheel because it was squeeking and now it doesn't scroll up or down consistently. At least it doesn't squeak as much but now I'm sad I can't scroll t.t

If you liked the 502 (which is the best id ever used) you will like this one. Its a bit overpriced but is great overall and i would buy it again.

Are there any good gaming mice with the same kind of no friction scroll wheels that you can find on the Logitc mice?

The dpi you can disable, and rebind for custom macros

Question: does it work with the powerplay mousepad? I am assume I will, but I have found an answer to this question. Thank you!

butons G6, G7, G8, G9 are programmable ?

I just bought x version after 3 years of original and what is problem for me, not mentioned anywhere, left main button is smaller than use to be approx 0.5cm at the front edge. When I click on the left main button, I am touching side button!!! Did not happen with original one.

i tried getting into light weight mice but i can’t do it. i don’t play shooters like that anymore too so i said to myself it’s to wrap it up and go back to what im comfortable with. i also really don’t like is any honey comb pattern mice too. i don’t like having holes on my mice. it gives me a heart attack when i have any kind of liquid near them. oh well. i’ll be sticking to this mouse for awhile.

The side dpi buttons i rebound to click or disabled them

so how good (reliable/durable) are the switches compared to the old g502? the switches on my current g502 crapped out after about a year, as did most mice i had in the past, mostly double clicking and the like. if these are better I would be willing to buy it. dont care about the wireless versions so moneywise its not much. anyone?

How does the shape compares to g703??

Ive had an old G502 Lightspeed for years now, its been my main mouse for a long time, and it needs to be retired, poor thing has some clicks not register, while other clicks double, and the rubber on the sides has been wearing off that all the original triangle patterns are just gone, and parts of the rubber are just falling off. I think its time for a replacement.

Would you replace say...g700s with the wireless version of this mouse....asking for a friend 😜

I just bought this mouse and I dropped the new lightspeed and gave it to my brother. After this I don’t think I’ll go to another, it’s amazing… aim and 3 buttons for my thumb is the best

So far, I'm loving this mouse! I've been using a POS mouse for years and this has been a pleasure to use so far, haven't run into any issues yet. I just feel like there's a lot of haters out there about this. People these days are being way too picky and complain about stupid little things. Yes, this mouse is a little pricey cause it just came out. So, if you're looking to get this but unsure, I'd say go for it.

I spent most of the video trying to figure out the tattoo. Kinda forgot to pay attention to the mouse. But I think I got it! The Tattoo is seawater, right?

It would be great if the thumb rest could be unmounted.

Rubber Triangles on the old G502? I've had mine for so long its a completely smooth surface by now

This redesign feels like two steps forward and one step backward, and significantly more expensive than the regularly discounted G502.

The weight is fine tbh, I recently got one as a replacement for my broken superlight under warranty. Not sure I would be happy with the 150$ price tag 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂

I took the weight out of my g703 and it fits into it perfectly.

What's that grey geometric mouse pad you're using? Know the brand?

Got mine and the right click doesn't work. If i turn it off and leave it alone for a few hours the right click starts to work for roughly 10 to 30 minutes.

I bought this to replace my g502 light speed and realized that it doesn’t have wireless charging so my power play mouse pad is basically useless now so that kinda sucks

Diamond Lobby like the grip texture on the OG 502 so much that he had it tattooed on his left hand.

I'm just trying to find a mouse that fits my giant hands better. There are mice out there for large hands but nothing with gaming features (shortcut buttons, precision dpi, etc)

Acquistato quasi un mese fa ,ma faccio il reso. Considerando il costo dello stesso dico: Bellezza sulla scrivania : 10 Durata della batteria : 6 ( la 1' carica durato 2 sett intense , la seconda sembri stia durando la metà ) Illuminazione : 10 + Velocità di risposta 10+ Comodità : 6 ( il tasto laterale da cecchino nonostante la prolunga , per utilizzarlo comodamente bisogna avere un pollice lungo 10 cm. Nuovi piedini PTTF :4 molto scorrevoli ma ( utilizzandoli con pad rigido logitech , si consumano come un wafer su carta brasiva da 120 ) Feedbach switch : 3 ( motivo della restituzione ) NUOVI SWITCH IBRIDI CON TECNOLOGIA LASER , dire pessimi , é fare un complimento. Appena sballato già il feedback era 🤔...a distanza di quasi un mese ..per carità ! Switch sx si é irrigidito gravando sensibilmente sul rate di fuoco ( ovviamente utilizzato click to click ). Gioco su sparatutto dal 96 , credo che dopo 27 anni di esperienza, posso garantire che questo SUPERMOUSE non é assolutamente adatto a gli sparatutto e soprattutto il prezzo ragazzi..attenzione ai vostri soldini 😉. Grazie del video molto bello,ma pessimo scherzetto di logitech

as someone who had both the x is a wonderful mouse i put superglide feet and some additional grips on it. how in the fk do you miss click the dpi buttons??? with the powerplay mat i never have to worry about batt life. Its def biult much better than the original. idk what i would do without the free spin scroll wheel now i use it all the time. I am thinking about getting a 50g mouse for some shooters tough want to try it out

I prefer textured plastic for side grips. Rubber after wore out feels sticky and dirty. Holes and gaps also gets dirty over time and very time consuming when cleaning. I prefer this design but I hope it gets more minimalistic with less unnecessary gaps and holes around the body.

In g502 scroll wheel is too stiff to strafe jump in apex. Will it be possible with this one?

That scroll wheel sounds like a big ol turbo with a ported shroud 😭😭

i don't know, i kind of like the metal scroll wheel,feels more durable and grippier to my finger

I feel like I am the only one that doesnt remap the DPI buttons to something else like CTRL+V and Enter. I set it to 1 DPI and use that for everything else, I barely every "shift" DPI. Even when Sniping I just use like 3000 for desktop and Max DPI in-game and set in-game sens to 1 or as low as possible. I've never really needed to "shift" dpi whilst in a game.

Eeh, glorious model i seems good enough for me, lol. Very lightweight, good ventilation in the palm area to prevent sweat from building up, great tracking, etc etc... Only downsides are minor gripes, like thumb buttons are too close to the thumb, and left click being tilted in a slightly unoptimized position. Thassit. xD

Well ive had the 502 old version after i only had g pros and i was so annoyed of the poor quality im now switching back to the 502 new version

For myself, the scroll wheel sounding the take off of an airplane is the deal breaker. You don't have it, I don't buy it.

best review ive watched, i feel like the non rgb is even better as its 7g lighter! mine comes on thursday :)

Still gonna buy it.

i really like your review, very informative and funny at the same time 😀

The rubber is the worse part of it. Just give us a plastic only mouse!

Thanks for the giggles and thorough review! :)

If i only look at the new version i dont like the buttons next to the main button. They are to long to be a quick function. And less raised. I owned the original 502, Prometheus, hero and the lightspeed. And they always been the best for me. If this is the new road logitech is following also with the new g7** headset gaming keyboard and the mouses then this was the last time i went for logitech

Love the content. Honestly much more entertaining than most other reviews, keep it up!

G502 X Plus can be charged with powerplay pad?

found a great deal on the g502X plus and it was only 105$ including shipping, only 3$ more expensive then the logitech 502 so I hope I'm getting the good stuff

I bought the plus just to spite you and myself at the same time.
