No idea how so many people like that monstrosity. Tried it, my pinkie gets numb because of the positioning. I have to constantly adjust my grip, my hand is too big for it. On top of that, is heavier than a 203 or 103 which have such a simple and better design. I will be forever a hater of g502.
r/pcmasterrace • The 25 most recommended gaming mouse according to Reddit (in the past year as of Jun 2025) ->I've got G402, G502 and G502X and After all this time I still think the G402 is the best simply due to the fact it has no RUBBER on the left side so it NEVER feels sticky. Truth.
r/MouseReview • 4 Years Later Review of my Logitech G402 Hyperion Fury ->I've got G402, G502 and G502X and After all this time I still think the G402 is the best simply due to the fact it has no RUBBER on the left side so it NEVER feels sticky. Truth.
r/MouseReview • 4 Years Later Review of my Logitech G402 Hyperion Fury ->That thing weighs as two to three decent gaming mice. On top of that, it forces the user to use the most unhealthy and imprecise grip - the palm grip. A definite no.
r/PUBATTLEGROUNDS • What's the best mouse to play PUbg with? ->I don't know atm how old mine 502 is, but I think around ten years ? Let's say, the rubber like part on the site is worn out down to the plastic body...so extensive use and no problems so far. Not even with the cable, as my mx518, g5 & g500 before had.
r/Guildwars2 • I need a good recommendation for a mouse ->I use a 144hz screen, I have a G502 and an MX3s. Honestly yeah the G502 is more responsive, but the MX3s is way more comfortable. I just switch between them depending on what I need to do.
r/logitech • Update on my new MX Master 4. This is goodbye. ->Pulsar Xlite v4 Large model probably. Pulsar is on Amazon but have 2 year warranty per their website. Intellimouse Pro maybe too (no wireless rip)? Lamzu Thorn as well. Lots of good big mice out there outside of Logi/Razer. Depends if you are wanting all the extra buttons. If you do, just grab the new 502 and don't worry about it.
r/MouseReview • Better gaming mouse than G502 Lightspeed in 2025? ->You will not get the best of both worlds depending on what you want from the productivity side. Does your workflow require or utilize more buttons? Do you care about weight when youre playing games? If the answer is yes, you should just get two cheaper seperate mice. Im sure people will give you good gaming specific reccomendations so I wont get into them. I use a lot of keybinds for productivity to accelerate my workflow, and thats only possible with mice that have more than two side buttons, I've found a few that sort of work for both gaming and productivity: - The G502x is a good balance, but its as heavy as a brick which is fine for some games but I find uncomfortable for FPS. - Lightweight MMO mice like the Steelseries Aerox 9 are great if you need the buttons, and its lightweight but its not suitable for a claw grip let alone a fingertip grip. - The razer Naga has variants with swappable side buttons and depending on your hand they may be suitable grip wise, but id sooner drink paint than recommend them with their issues and they are not worth the cost. I can keep listing reccomendations, but you'll find drawbacks and negatives that will significantly degrade your end experience trying to have a one mice fits all solution, you will constantly be trading away things and in my opinion - no options exist that I can say is worth $150 in value. 2x $75 mice will get you very far, especially in todays markets where Chinese mice are on par if not better than mainstream options in many instances. Ive settled on the G502x for work. The side buttons and the index finger buttons are very useful, but more importantly the scroll wheel has a button to switch to a free spinning wheel, and has side tilt buttons - those two things alone make it extremely useful if you utilize them.
r/MouseReview • Mouse Recommendations in 2025? ->Logitech G502 is solid around that price range, been using mine for like 3 years and it's still going strong
r/pcmasterrace • What is a good gaming mouse that is t really expensive but not really cheap? (Under $100) ->Yep, g502 is the best mouse I've ever had. Bought 3 so i have reserves.
r/wow • View on Reddit →If any of my G502 or G604 mice breaks i'm going for that Redragon mouse. I like the look of the M811 and think it'd be a fine replacement.
r/wow • View on Reddit →this goes for 99% of video games you cant go wrong with a g502 (or if you prefer razer, one of deathadder viper or basilisk will suit you)
r/WorldOfWarships • View on Reddit →And it is heavy. And I've bought like 6 over the years, I wouldn't have it any other way.
r/gaming • View on Reddit →Another one! I was a Corsair guy for a while, but fault after fault... Had multiple Corsair mice in one year. The 502 is the first non-Corsair mouse I tried and I've rocked the same one for years since - Flawless
r/G502MasterRace • View on Reddit →Had the G502 for some time too, but it was too small and cramped for my hands. And the weight is way too much even for work. I'm generally more a keyboard guy, so a mouse needs not additional buttons for me. Found my type in the EC1 shape. The free scroll is great - though the wheel was slightly off-center on my copy and others I've seen which bothered me a bit...
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →this is just poor industrial design and programmed obsolecense. if it is meant to wear down then it should be at leas user replaceable. I have a G502 that looks exactly like the pictures.
r/G502MasterRace • View on Reddit →You don't need an MMO mouse to play. If you weren't struggling with your old keybinds there is no need to change. I use a G502 and simply remap the thumb buttons to control and shift using the keyboard for the rest of it and it works wonders.
r/ffxiv • View on Reddit →Okay while most people would tell you to get the deathadder V3 , for what your asking I would suggest a g502 or basilisk. I don't program or anything but when I had a g502 I would use the side buttons for mute or deafen on discord or the snipe button for pause and play music . If you're doing hardcore gaming then get the deathadder, if you don't then get the basilisk.
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →I bought a death adder and it automatically installed their trash software. Bought a g502 and gave the death adder to my cousin lol
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →As another guy with big hands I recently got the g502 and it wasn't the best. It was plenty log enough but still way too narrow and just felt like it was putting weird pressure into my palms. How did you like it?
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →Another one for the G502. I have the wired version. It's been with me for like 4-5 years and has held up exceptionally well. There are 6 different buttons you can remap with the Logitech software so it's a great pick. If you can find one for a reasonable price then then G604 (the mouse I'm currently using) is the best one. However, it's out of production and really hard to come by now :(
r/wow • View on Reddit →Yeah sorry I mean to say get a 502x as the g502 is better built in my experience and built for multitasking.
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →I do so miss my g600. The 502 X isn't half bad so far though.
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →Not sure if you want to but you could look up used mice as well. I managed to get mice like the G502 X, Basilisk V3, DeathAdder V2/V3 for under 30$ each (usually 1.5-2x the price new around here so it might not be an option for you). I thought the thumb rest was a necessity for me as well but in the end the DeathAdder shape is what fits my hand perfectly.
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →Yeah the cable situation is weird. Probably all new produced have the cheap cable. Sad. The sturdy braided one is the best. Though a little heave
r/G502MasterRace • View on Reddit →Razer NAGA. I play a lot of mmos too. But it's been so good for arpgs. My hands feel so much better after swtiching to wasd in arpgs and using the mouse for skills. Had a G502, and I honestly hated it. I know everyone loves it. Way too heavy for me and the buttons are super mushy. I like the mechanical buttons on the naga. Had the wired NAGA for years with no problems, decided to get wireless a few months ago and it's been great.
r/ARPG • View on Reddit →Honestly, after being on the deathadder for like 10 years, then to steel series, I have the Logitech g502 now and it's just perfect. Would never go back.
r/cs2 • View on Reddit →Newer ones are largely garbage but a lot of Logitec mice from 10-15 years ago were built incredibly well. I still use my 15 year old g502. Though I've heard newer ones have weaker switches.
r/BuyItForLife • View on Reddit →I have the 502 light speed myself and it's been great. Had the wired 502 before as well. Only thing I suggest is buy from Best Buy and get the 2 year geek squad warranty for $19.99. Mine devolved the double click issue just under 2 years of ownership and they replaced it no questions asked. Otherwise, best mouse I've ever had.
r/G502MasterRace • View on Reddit →I also have big hands and use the Logitech G502 with no problems
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →I have a G502 and my only issue is that for the two buttons on the top, it's almost impossible to hit just one at a time.
r/wow • View on Reddit →Oh, to be clear, I haven't needed replacements for any of them, though I did upgrade my daily work noise to a lightspeed one. The extras I bought were for other workstations and friends and family. Friends don't let friends use oem mice. I haven't had one die on me yet, though the rubber coating is getting a bit gross on the most heavily used ones (about 10 years old now). I have 2 more fresh in box that I bought when they were on sale for $35 at best but a few years back.
r/gaming • View on Reddit →I'm on my fourth I think. At least third. The free wheel. The extra buttons not to many not to little. Yeah pretty perfect. On next sale I'll get 2 more. The wired one can be 20 bucks on sale. And that is ok. 60 or what retail fuck they want is way too much.
r/G502MasterRace • View on Reddit →Hey didn't read the message properly. I don't know when they switched to non braided cable. I think all new ones have the cheap cables. Doesn't bother me though I never unplug the mouse.
r/G502MasterRace • View on Reddit →Generally mice that are more open. The G502 and Basilisk thumb area is a bit cramped. I don't have thick fingers, but long ones and my thumbs are a bit wider at the tips than on most people. The EC1 shape is good for working because it's super relaxed. But I aim better with the FK1 XL shape, Viper and similar works great too - less comfortable though.
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →I've been rocking the G502 lightspeed for a while! It would be nice to have a few more buttons to map, but I appreciate the simplicity. I put flares and chaffs on my mouse, and the cycle hostile targets button so I can react to stuff quickly without needing to go hunting for keys (or remember which is which) It's nice also having the ability to change your dpi on the go if you like a different sensitivity for turrets vs piloting vs on foot shenanigans. ðŸ¤·â™‚ï¸ Edit: typo
r/starcitizen • View on Reddit →the double click is a 50-50, my g502 and g402 lasted for 4-5 years and i didn't get double click issues in both of them
r/mkindia • View on Reddit →It's all subjective but I've always loved the G502 for gaming and the MX Master for productivity.
r/buildapc • View on Reddit →Interesting analogy, I guess just buy a g502 at 100g I guess
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →Im pretty happy with the Logitech G502. It has a few extra buttons on the side with a bit more seperated locations. I find it easier to hit the right button compared to a Razer Naga or Corsair Scimitar and as healer im fine with that amount of extra buttons. In the end i recommend you check them out in a shop and not just buy them online because everyone will have different preferences and you have to find it comfortable
r/wow • View on Reddit →I dont rest my whole hand on it Is what i realised just now,my palm rests on my desk while mu fingers are mostly in the sir,maybie weird but hey pereferences exist.
r/gaming • View on Reddit →Logitech isn't shit. It's just okay for a high price. In some products they pretty much are the best. \- MX Keys keyboard is one of the best scissor keyboards. \- MX Master 3 is the gold standard for a productivity mouse. Then on the pretty good front: \- G305 is a fine mouse \- G502 is a fine product line. there are clones shapewise, but none of them is necccesarily superior. And in the OEM bargain category, a logitech cheapo mouse/keyboard pretty much beat the alternatives HP and Dell give with their computers. So all in all, Logitech is not exactly shit, it's just meh.
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →G502 showing up 5 individual times on the overall chart warms my heart
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →I have similar sized hands to you, it's been a nightmare and a half to find a mouse that fits the hands properly. I have bounced back and forth between the Logitech G502X and the Asus ROG Harpe. Logitech is better for a palm grip. The asus is better for fingertip and claw grip. Found the asus mouse to be more comfortable and lighter.
r/pcmasterrace • View on Reddit →Logitech g pro wireless. I used to have the g502, also a great mouse. I have the glorious model O, and a few others as well, but I would not recommend any of them over the first two mentioned
r/thefinals • View on Reddit →I keep a list of the biggest mice people recommend on here in case something huge for my massive meat paws comes on the market. Some of them are long, some of them are wide, some aren't either but for some reason people still recommend them. Anyway, here's the list, the dimensions are LxWxH and it's ordered by length. Asus Rog Spatha X - 137x89x45 - 168g Microsoft Pro Intellimouse - 132x69x 43 - 109g Mionix Naos Pro - 131x85x39 - 102g Logitech G502 Hero/Lightspeed - 132x75x40 - 121g/114g Logitech G502 X - 131x79x41 - 89g Zowie EC1-DW - 130x69x42 - 63g Darmoshark M3 - 130x66x39 - 58g Keychron M7 - 128x77x44 - 63g Pwnage Stormbreaker Max CF - 128x68x44 - 43g Razer DeathAdder V3 - 128x68x44 - 59g Rawm MH01 - 127x66x40 - 65g Viper V3 Pro - 127x64x40 - 55g Waizowl OGM Cloud - 126x68x38 - 55g Pulsar Xlite V3/V4 Large (size 3) - 126x70x45 - 58g Teevolution Terra - 125x69x43 - 49g Vaxee NP-01 - 120x66x39 - 75g Cooler Master MM720 - 105x77x37 - 49g Also, if you're looking for cheap, Redragon do some decently sized options... Redragon m908/m913 - 123x92x42 - 117g/128g (not very long but very wide). Happy mouse hunting! Edit: Updated with those in this thread.
r/MouseReview • View on Reddit →It is crazy to me the cult like following this mouse continues to have, and I maimed this mouse for like 3 years from 2017-2020. The extra buttons are cool, but man there are so many better mice out there, that are so much lighter. If you want a wired mouse try the op18k it's the best fps mouse in existence, probably. Lots of ergo mice out there, from death adder to zywoo to superlight to vaxee If you're stuck on this shape you might try the basilisk But really you'll just probably be happiest with another 502.
