Logitech G502 X review

The G502 X is for players who value buttons and a full-hand shape over low weight. Logitech says the redesign brings the G502 down to 89 grams with a thin-wall exoskeleton, which is still the heaviest mouse here and about 50g more than the Pulsar X2 CrazyLight. It uses the HERO 25K sensor, described by Logitech as sub-micron with zero smoothing, filtering and acceleration, and it was the first G502 with LIGHTFORCE hybrid optical-mechanical switches. A practical detail is the DPI-Shift button: you can remove it, reverse it to bring it closer to your thumb, or replace it with the included blank cover to stop accidental presses. This wired version was $79.99 on sale against a $99.99 list price on Logitech's US store when we checked. It is a sensible pick for MMO, MOBA and general PC use where button count matters more than flick speed. Competitive FPS players should pick one of the sub-65g mice higher on this list.
