How did it perform? Check out our review below to see whether or not it’s a mouse we recommend.

Logitech’s G502 gaming mouse has a venerable history, so its latest ‘ G502 Lightspeed’ wireless mouse has a lot to live up to. The G502, through its different iterations, has proven to be a fan favourite with its angular design, comfy thumb rest, hyper-fast scroll wheel, and numerous buttons – so many that it almost makes you wonder what an MMO mouse is for. It’s often described not just as one of the best Logitech mice, but as one of the best gaming mice full-stop. I am genuinely surprised by Logitechs decision following their success in the. The one drawback for those who loved the G502 was its lack of wireless capability. The Logitech G435 is the lightest wireless gaming headset Ive tested so far. This is where the Logitech G502 Lightspeed comes in: almost nothing external has changed about the G502 with the Lightspeed edition, except that it connects wirelessly via Lightspeed USB or a Logitech G PowerPlay mousepad. For fans of the G502, this ‘if it’s not broke, don’t fix it’ approach is perfect. The problem with turning a wired mouse into a wireless one, however, is that wireless technology is more expensive to implement. And this shows with the G502 Lightspeed, with its $149.99 price tag pushing it out of midrange territory and squarely into the high-end. The question is, is it worth such a steep price for wireless? I think yes, undoubtedly.įor all intents and purposes, Logitech’s G502 Lightspeed is the same as previous G502 models, except it now has Lightspeed wireless capability.
#Logitech lightspeed software update
It boasts a whopping (if entirely unnecessary) 25,600 CPI – as do all previously-16,000 CPI HERO sensor mice thanks to a software update released in late 2020 – and its high polling rate allows for a 1ms report time to prevent input delay. It also features 11 programmable buttons, and a battery life of up to 60 hours with RGB lighting disabled or up to 48 hours with RGB turned on. People have come to expect a lot from Logitech’s G502 gaming mice, and the G502 Lightspeed doesn’t disappoint.
