NEW G502 X PLUS LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse (Review & Gameplay)

[@Dazs]

EDIT: Made a mistake on the wired version being 89 grams and the wireless being 106g as listed from Logitech. Been seeing in the comments lots of weight discussion for the G502. Sorry I got confused on what was posted also. Mouse still feels great, the glide is a testament to its PTFE mice feet. I got the posted specs below! Connectivity: USB-C Charging Weight: 106 grams Mouse feet: Low-friction PTFE feet Height: 131.4 mm Width: 41.1 mm Depth: 79.2 mm LIGHTSPEED wireless technology Up to 5 onboard memory profiles 13 programmable controls 8-zone RGB lighting Battery life: Constant motion 120 hrs (37 hrs RGB on) Sensor: HERO 25K Resolution: 100 - 25,600 dpi Max. acceleration: >40G2 Max. speed: >400 IPS 3Tested on Logitech G240 Gaming Mouse Pad G502 is such an icon mouse, that just had to cover it. I am still trying it all day today. Figured give all the thoughts & impressions of the mouse and even compare it to the old G502 that I ran down back in the day and also compare it to my G303 which is my main driver atm. Tried to change the format where it felt more authentic and really gave more details to help give you informed thoughts on the mouse!

Thank you for your video. I have a question: Is this compatible with apple laptop computers?

[@zombieimpact2790]

Honestly, I feel like I do better in first-person shooters with a heavier mouse. When using a lighter mouse, my hand comes off the mouse pad more often than with a heavier one, so I feel like most of the time, a heavier one is more accurate.

[@telkaivokalma]

Upgrading from those garbage switches is an ez dub. I'm constantly surprised by the amount of people that disable the dpi shift buttons. Biggest selling point of the mouse. Not the dpi shift functionality, but button location. Map them to keys. I use the forward dpi button for picking stuff up in games and back dpi button for melee or gernade depending on the game.

[@jimboc669]

Yeah I bind them to 7 and 8 and use them in game.

Thanks for this video! I've been scouring the web for a solid review of the g502 x. This is the first one that I've come across that shows gameplay, as well as being fairly honest.

[@henrychinaski]

I know a ton of people who use the G502 for work too. The comfort and layout of the buttons as well as the customization of the button layout make it a very special mouse. People like to shit on it because it's heavy like their mum.

[@michalaugustin8122]

I have 3 g502 lightning, one at home, construction site and office/rental flat. I have ESC and ENTER on the triggers and it's making me really fast. For AutoCAD I have a special profile where there is L and M on the trigger buttons to draw a line and move an object. It's the best mouse. Oh and I stuck microUSB - USB-c dongle to each of them for good so now I have "usb-c version" of g502 lightning

[@Shadow__133]

@@michalaugustin8122 I use the top left keys for copy/paste, the side thumb for calculator and gsync plus side to lock my station 👍 And I love the weight. That's why I may skip this new generation.

[@sbggxnzo]

Honestly I love my g502 lightspeed but I would really consider upgrading just for the usb c. Lighter weight is just a bonus for me,

[@LastAphelion]

Favorite mouse for forever, every button is perfectly placed in my muscle memory for quick melee, ability on top, voice chat and grenade/fire select/another most used ability on side, and last but not least keeping the DPI shifter on over 9000 so that I can spin people around on Roadhog in DM the wtfs never get old

How is the left click?

[@LastAphelion]

I've been using a G502 Hero for a couple of years now, and it's been great, but recently I've been wishing it was lighter. Looks like the wired version might be the right upgrade for me. Thanks!

[@SilentNinjaSparks]

So... coming from a G602 5 year old mouse, does the dongle do anything special? Or can I just plug in the tiny USB receiver thing?

[@thelvadam3870]

Is there a way to make this mouse heavier? I like the improved switches and the scroll wheel but the added material in between the left and right switches in addition to the light weight make me not want to get it.

[@JillpapI]

I just purchased a G502 X which is how I discovered your channel. I appreciate the fact that I felt I learned far more about this mouse from your review in comparison to many other reviewers. Big, big thank you for that. Ever since I converted to a glass mousepad I've begun to strongly appreciate enormous PTFE feet and in all honesty this is my primary concern with this mouse. I plan to buy Superlight skates for the sole purpose of pasting the circular skate onto the dongle cover of the G502 X. Do you happen to know if the dimensions are the same and if I might encounter any issues you foresee as a more experienced user of this mouse?

[@RauKnowsAPEX]

Always love the review content ❤️

I have a g502 lightspeed. The right mouse button has started misclicking after 1 year. Im getting this mouse today hoping the updated left and right click last longer. Googling it, the original g502 lightspeed had terrible problems with the left and right mouse buttons.

@@SaketSam-mp8rk I have 2 G502's. I have a Hero for my laptop I take to work, and a lightspeed I use at home on my desktop. I actually just bought the hero a day or 2 ago because the first g502 I ever owned finally started acting weird. I think I have purchased about 4 of these mice and have been using them since they came out. I'm addicted.

I'm on the G305 and just wish it has 2 more programmable buttons. I may have to get the 502 X. Is there a G series mouse with more buttons than a 305 that still retains the form factor?

[@Tripokaridos22]

I saw u have 303 and 502x what is your advice for me that i want something like 305 grip ? I want to place my little finger back.

[@IsouDMI]

Thanks for the review! I was interested because of the updated look but the fact that I can't insert weight is a deal breaker for me. I personally prefer a heavier mouse and actually use 4x2g on my lightspeed.

[@johnnynguyen2078]

how do you change the plastic on the side dpi? im still trying to figure that out

[@DVTHEFOX]

Please tell me if you can save the RGB profile in the on board memory, so i don't have to use G HUB anymore... I mean, i can do it with my G502 HERO, but i've heard it's not possible with this one...

I know mouse is old, but did you ever use the g700s and if so how would you compare?

[@Dazs]

I have, I felt like the G700s were clunky. I prefer definitely the G502 for its ergo feel if I can get the wired version for lighter weight or the G303.

[@DarthCanuck]

I currently use a Razer Naga Pro for work and any MMO or RTS games. For FPS which Apex is my main game I use the Razer Basilisk Pro but have been considering something different. I really like the two buttons next to the left click. I have also heard that the G502 is slightly bigger than the Basilisk? I sometimes find the Basilisk a little small for my hand size.

[@frostgodx]

You have everything backwards lol. Also they are the exact same shape. G502 is made for large hands so if you think it’s small idk what to tell ya

[@Elite]

For someone who has a g502 lightspeed for over a year and a half, should I upgrade?

[@Gamebrojeremy1]

Only if your mouse is starting to fall apart. Logitech has a habit of lowering the prices of their peripherals after a year on the market so if you can hold out until then, you could upgrade for a discount. We also don’t know if double clicking has been addressed with these new hybrid switches so it’s best to wait if there’s no issues with your current 502.

[@shotbykm]

sickk i have the G703 Lightspeed and wont need to upgrade but I am gonna watch this just to see. Thanks Dazs!

If you like how much smoother the 502X is, grab some Corepads for your G303SE! Haven't finished the video yet but by the gameplay portion I didn't see the weight corrected. The wired version is 89g, the wireless ones are significantly heavier. Still decently light-ish for a mouse with this feature set, but heavier than I'd like. Personally, there's a big difference between

I just got a Hero to replace my decade old middle button failed G502 Proteus. I could return/refund to get a new X but at half the price, no buttons that will fall off, and with weight customization this doesn't seem like a good deal.

08:31 you say 140 hour battery life, Logitech says "up to 120 hours battery life" there is a big difference here. You are not quoting the correct facts for this mouse. You should improve how you review and not put in false specifications for viewers which look better than what is on paper. Sigh.

[@johntowle]

In your description for this video on YT you even copy and pasted "Constant motion 120 hours 37 hours RGB on " yet you then go to claim a flat 140 hours battery life at 08:31 Bad mistake and factually incorrect information being imparted by this reviewer. Failed to provide us with any real world testing on battery life. Even though he admits " I am still trying it all day today" so uses it for a whole day but nothing about if the battery life advertised is what he is getting. Disappointing review. That's an important feature for a WIRELESS gaming mouse.

@@Costinmusca I am telling you I have no clue because I never use their software to that degree. Most I do is save DPI. (Which I mentioned all I did in the software) Never found any mouse software reliable. I know all these mice come with fancy software but a real gaming mouse is mostly on shape, glide, and other buttons that help you in game. You shouldn’t be switching DPI on the fly in game and you shouldn’t care about the color of your mouse while you game. Even different profiles is odd if someone is taking their gaming seriously. Again bluntly, for a gaming mouse, I find the features odd. I don’t do tons of mouse reviews, I am a gaming channel, if I see something that sparks my interest then I cover it.
