Would u say a worthy upgrade?
Or would have u liked more?
Is Kone xp air wider and taller compared to 502 x? What do you mean bigger? Please explain
I have the g502 hero as a productivity mouse and i don't mind upgrading to g502x lightspeed. I was considering the basilisk v3 pro but the g502x lightspeed is cheaper. The weight of the wired g502x is attractive but it doesn't feel like much of an upgrade over my current g502 hero which I'm not using for gaming, and especially with that average-looking rubber cable they decided to use.
Easy answer.
If you own the G502 wired > Yes
If you own the G502 lightspeed > NO NO NO
@@jcap8391 yes both ways, more deathadder feel
They look cool
"Why pay 20 extra dollars for RGB?" RGB gives you 10-20% more FPS that's why. Facts.
true, I forgot about that
@@TheTechne expectation: gives more fps
Reality: increases power consumption
@@Seeded335 Not if the expectation is sarcastic.😉 But yeah you're right about more power consumption and in the case of the G502 X Plus it adds another 7 grams of weight.
@@vigilant_1934 I get the jokes tho lol
The RGB has hypnotic effects that makes you see more fps than normal
I used the G502 Lightspeed for years and years. I messed up and found the MouseReview subreddit and began my steady decline into chasing FOMO and what was "competitive". I've used 30 mice in the last year. Consumerism took hold and I ended up on the Superlight, ignoring thumb and wrist pain that all these super lightweight mice gave me. Gotta have the "best" tech, right? Gotta be ready to be "competitive", right? Wrong. I'm 38 years old. I'm never getting out of Diamond, let's be real. Once I saw the G502X leak, I sold my entire lot, and snagged the G502X Lightspeed. I play all different kinds of games. FPS, MMO, etc. The extra buttons were always helpful and the comfort is unmatched. I always played well. Don't know why I did all that. The moral of this novel is just be happy with what you have. Don't do what I did. lol.
For sure! 👍
Curious as to what you think about the Viper V2 Pro..
true, for each their own. If you're a casual gamer, buy anything that fits you hand well. shape is king.
@@wavytoad9983 I found the shape to be uncomfortable for longer periods of gaming. It's way too flat for me. Hand size is 17x8. Extremely well made mouse though.
Same sort of story with me tbh, always loved the G502 shape more than any other mouse, but once I got into tac fps I was convinced I needed every tiny bit of advantage and wasted so much money on buying every new mouse that came along. Just for the hell of it one day I tried my old G502 wired just to see how much harder it would be, and to my surprise my aim while definitely more steady and my flicks weren't as fast, was still pretty accurate and I was still able to be consistent. Honestly people act like it's impossible to get good with a heavy mouse, but it's all just muscle memory. If that's what you've used for like 2 years, switching to something else might not be as beneficial as people think. I said fuck it and just bought the G502 lightspeed and that's what I've been on ever since. Looking to pick up the wired version of this mouse.
I had a Logitech G903, but after I held the 502 on display at a store, I picked it up and never looked back. It's so ergonomic and comfortable.
Thanks for the review! Honestly expected better upgrades after so much time re weight and cable. Sticking with the Basilisk
I think its a good upgrade for ppl who used previous G502
Personally i don't like under 80G mice they just feel cheap even tho i tried to get use to them
But i might consider wireless one if its become available in my country
Thanks for the review,good thing that you showed us 3 of them in one video.
thanks for putting the entire refresh into 1 video
Haven’t been here since I got a razer Kira pro headset from your review but knew I had to come back for new tech help I’m glad to see you still doing well:)
Bought mine 502x plus yesterday. Love the 502 can’t wait to get this upgrade and try the new switches . Another amazing upload techne.
Got the new Ryzen and Radeon around the corner. The Huntsman V2 TKL is incredible. The Vaxee PA is silky pads perfected. The past year has been amazing for peripheral upgrades. A g703x would complete me for another 10 years.
This year is literally an upgrade year.
G703x??
@@falconops1 We're going to vibe it into existence.
Thanks for the honest review! I've been scouring the web trying to find ones that aren't biased one way or the other, and I think a non-basilisk main/non-g502 main is a fantastic base for a review!
Love how you always give your genuine opinion techne!
Great Review!
I hope we can go have a comparison with the G502x and Basilisk V3 especially with the Basilisk V3 getting a wireless release.
I recently got this mouse, and I managed to get the RGB one on sale for the same price as the non-RGB. The main reason I was interested in the RGB is because it lets me set the lights to different colours by profile, so when I look at the mouse I can see what profile I'm using.
on non--rgb there is a light indicator to show you which profile you on.
Does this mouse also wobble and rattle when shaken/moved quickly side to side ?
@@jafarabbas9785 None whatsoever. This mouse is actually high quality.
Wow they look insane, excited for this!
So do you think the Basilisk or this is better? I don’t think I need buttons but I’m honestly not sure
I’ll only ever use the G502. I love the button layout. Nobody does it the same. I’ll buy this.
Is there any more width/is it any flatter where the pinkie and ring finger sit.. Like wide enough for the pinkie and ring finger..or is that side space the same/unchanged as the original 502?
The Logitech G502 Lightspeed was my first real wireless gaming mouse and I loved it! These extra features honestly make it worth it for me to swap my mouse out, especially since I bought the 3 year warranty so I might as well. Gonna get the regular G502 X Lightspeed(No RGB) and save the money for more battery life and I don't even really see the lights when using the mouse. One question though, will my Macros and Key Binding profiles for my various different games transfer over or be imported from the Logitech G Hub when I plug in and use the new mouse? It would honestly suck if I were to have to re-enter/create all of them since I have so many
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.
Hey I was watching your video and I bought a steel series lol arctis pro wired and it doesn’t really even sound loud so cranked everything up and it is a little better but not very loud still are they supposed to be way better out the box ? I have never had any before
Hello! I've a question about a complaint i seen in amazon about this mouse. The wired one it seems that cable sticking out of the mouse faces downward and makes contact with the mat making friction that way, is it true? is hard to find a review out there about this mouse that isn't with the wireless ones.
I have been using G502 since like 10 years ago, the wired version, lightspeed version, and I'm definitely upgrading to this. Reason being, I really like the looks and shape of the mouse, but it is very difficult to clean, especially for people like me with sweaty hands. The grooves on the sides gets filled with greases really quick, and they go in all directions, I have to clean it with a toothbrush everytime. Also, the old metal scroll wheel oxidizes after the protection layer falls off, and the new lightweight scroll wheel is really hard to clean, it gets all greasy in the circumferences in no time. It seems to me that these will be less of a problem with this new iteration, and having a type-c port is definitely a plus.
I was considering the vertical mouse by Logitech before I saw this one tho.
I have ordered the G502X Pro for 2 weeks and it still haven’t shipped.
@@1Rise how about now
@@Luceium01 satisfied with my purchase. all issue mentioned are fixed. I got the white one with rgb.
When you said that the wired version's cable is "rubber", does that mean the sticky kind of rubber or smooth kind? I hate the sticky kind since it clings to my desk, but if it's the smooth kind then it's fine.
Do they have add on weights?
I don't feel like it is worth upgrading too, but it does give options for people which I guess is good. Hopefully the switches do turn out to be better and the thumb button change is interesting.
The price increase is quite steep for the few updates though.
Not really that big of a price increase. New switches, better grip, comes in white, better/more rgb, more than double the battery life, it’s also lighter.
Does the Feet on the Wired version feels better? Because the bottom feet is bigger.
Ngl I like the old look of the g502 better. Oh well, glad Razer's carrying on the design aesthetic.
I think the reason it is the best selling gaming mouse ever or the second (idk if the deathadder is more popular) is because of how cool and futuristic it looks
Is the plastic PBT or ABS like the old G502 HERO?
I loved the older G502 I have the hero and the light speed, but I switched over to Razer and bought the basilisk V3 they are very similar but I think I prefer the weight of the G502. My daily mouse is the basilisk V3 though, Razer did right with the flex cable and I'm astonished that Logitech missed the ball with that one on their wired version of the G502
Would you say that the Kone XP Air, is bigger in generel size compare to the G502?
And with Kone XP Air, nothing has change beside the wireless, because the side button was a bit sharp on the wired version.
Will you say, that you also feel that?
I'm looking for a new mouse in generel. My old Roccat Leadr is about 4 years now.
So would say it is time, but after so long, i find it very hard as well.
Did try the old G502, but the generel size was to small, my little finger didn't have any natrual place to rest.
At the end of day, i just did hope i could keep using Roccat, because of the easy shift. (and just so easy for me to use after 10+ years)
but i did learn that Logitech have something like it, but didn't try it out that much. (because of the size isus)
g502 X lightspeed weight is absolutely perfect, there is some weird threshold that you can absolutely feel, that's why you felt the difference with the plus even if it was only some grams
Amazing video! Just a question, which keyboard do you prefer, fnatic streak65 lp or the ducky one3 sf ?
Streak 65
@@TheTechne thank you very much, you have no idea what problem you just solved me, I was having a crisis between the 2. Thx for always helping.
I just upgraded from my G502 Lightspeed to the X Plus and it's worth it, the refresh looks and feels great, the ptf feet are awsome and the switches feel great, I've been using this shape Since The Logitech G5, and had the Proteus Core, never tried the basilisk but using powerplay for 4 years.... I can't go back to a wired mouse and having a surface that charges my mouse while I play, unbelievable 💜
One question: the old g502 has a problem that is, when you press the mouse scroll depending of the angle you press it, you can accidentaly activate one of the lateral (left and right) whell buttons wich can lead to undesirable commands. Looking into your video and some photos, seems that the wheel of the new model is different. Can you report if this accidental presses also happen on the new model?
would like to know as well
The promising thing I see are the optical switches. Finally no more bad debounce algorithms for logitech as well. I hope they will release a G Pro Superlight with this tech
If the g502x lightspeed had the weight of the wired g502x, it would be absolutely perfect
100%
That’s a 10g difference? Do curls with a 5 lb dumbbells? Replace these nice PFTE mouse feet with SuperGlides (they’ll feel 25g lighter)…
@@TheChillee Its about the inertia of the mouse not about our arms having strength or not.
@@TheChillee i would have agreed with you if it was only a difference of 5g or less, but 10g is a noticeable difference for mice.
You could probably easily get rid of 10g if you modded it 🤷🏼♂️
Well, I'm using a G402 for an ages now and I love G502 and this new one came out make me really want to upgrade.
Pls help me , I have the Arctis Pro wired without DAC and I connected it through USB to my PS5 both front and back but it does not work , no audio coming from the headset but the lights on the headphones work .
I too prefer a plump mouse. Does this one have more chonk? The classic 502 was great, but just too slim for my palm.
Please make a review about the new Barracuda X 2022 version and compare all of the 3 barracuda headphones, you're the only channel i watch, your channel is awsome!
Im using the normal g502 for 6 years now and i still love it
You think this new one would be a upgrade like with Just aiming better and all that stuff in gen
Can we get the Odin Aurora 65 keyboard review?
Do they make a LH version?
I know the proportion of lefties is fairly small, but it's still a pretty big number
As someone who daily drive G502 for gaming at home, if your current G502 starts double clicking, get the G502X, if it doesn't, get it anyway since your current one's gonna double click eventually
What no option to make it heavier? I have been using g502 for 6/7 years now, wired then wireless, and I have always installed the weights. Even before that, I had an older mouse that can be added some weight. Now I feel left out.
G502 X vs Basilisk v3 Pro? In terms of tactile clicks and weight? which is better?
Why didn’t logitech put a paracord cable on the g502x wired
Unpacking: Why is the G502 X the only one not having plastic infront of sensor?
Thank you spent the last 1hr trying to figure out the difference between them
currently watching a bunch of reviews I have used a 502 lightspeed for years and before that I used a g700 and g700s so any weight reduction is cool and honestly I'm only recently actually starting to want weight reduction I've always liked heavy.
I was looking on the spec sheet for this mouse and there were two things I use a lot and wasn't sure if it had but it indeed does have both so honestly as soon as I can justify the upgrade I'm doing it cause my mouse is getting old and ratty and one of the upgrades is actually something I've wanted for a long time and kinda DIYed my own mouse to have but it broke so I gave up so that's epic
Can someone please tell me what it means when I press the middle button on the g502x and the middle little light changes color?
Left my basilisk ultra v2 for g502x plus and haven't looked back. Theres nothing close to the heavenly feel of this mouse
I spilled cofee on my 3 year old G502 ligthspeed at my workplace and it died, so I bought the G502x wired. I love this mouse, it has a slightly different the hump shape but it is still very comfortable.
A month ago I paracorded it (I used the paracord of a Hyperx Pulsefire haste) and it is almost the perfect wired mouse for my necessities... has a lot of buttons (I'm a developer and I need a ton of shortcuts), lightweight in case I play Valorant or League on fridays (82g is impressive considering all the extra buttons and the complex scroll wheel assembly that it has) and better build quality than the old generation (no pretravel on the main buttons and almost no rattle on the shell).
Tbh, I hope logitech make g403 superlight. I love that shape so comfort on my hand 😂
The battery capacity appears to be more in the PLUS version compared to the others.
G 502 X Wireless can be charged on a special logitech mousepad (Powerplay).
Though, the mousepad is about same price as a wired g502x.
Wired will never be garbage
Don't have a 502. I like that look of those top side buttons. I have a 903 with a Light speed mouse pad. This looks like an interesting upgrade. Not a competitive gamer so the wireless weight looks fine to me. That white and gray together is stylish too
I love the new g502 and i love the basilisk, the basilisk Ultimate with dock Is 100 now
Will wait next year for the G502 Superlight!
that will not happen.
G502 X Plus charges with Powerplay?
I definitely want to buy it but my G502 Hero is still alive and in good condition (5 years) despite moderate use in work and gaming. And I dunno about the weight reduction because I use mine with all the weights in the mouse.
A mouse not having a braded cable is a GOOD thing. Why would you want your mouse cable to be stiffer and have more friction in the event it's not suspended and is instead being dragged around? Just because Razer and logitech told you it was a good thing doesn't make it so.
I've been wanting to get the lightspeed G502 for a long time now, to upgrade my wired one. Now I know I just have to wait and I can get an both things, a wireless mouse that's an upgrade of my current. Heck yes 🤣🤣
I've use the OG g502 wired still going strong no problems.
me too, have it as back up.
I currently use a Logitech G502 x wired and a Corsair SABRE RGB PRO CHAMPION SERIES and a Corsar Harpoon PRO RGB. All mice are wired of course but for me its like this:
- Logitech G502 x wired is feeling nice but too flat. Setup was annoying hard since first the software wouldn´t recognise the mouse and to begin with I wasn´t told which software to install anyway.
- Corsar Harpoon PRO RGB has a weird position for the wire not being centered giving you constant side drag and poor build quality especially with the mouse wheel failing after a year.
-- Corsair SABRE RGB PRO CHAMPION SERIES is my absolute favourite. Although the sensor failed after a year (got my money back though) this mouse has the best feeling for grown up man hands, buttons and wheel are extremely quiet (not like the Logitech) and it is rather cheap. Unlike the Logitech it doesn´t come with dpi buttons but after setting it up in the Windows setup I never felt the urge to change anything unlike with the Logitech.
TLDR: Logitech has so far the most modern technic, the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO CHAMPION SERIES feels best, is quiet and will fail within its 2 year guarantee span.
Oh and the absolute most important I forgot to add: the SABRE RGB PRO CHAMPION SERIES doesn´t feature any TPE which makes it non sticky and very easy to clean. Although I went through multiple Corsair mixe of the same model they all broke at the sensor, mouse wheel and /or buttons, but I always got my money back.
My "pro" tip, never buy a mouse with battery (unless it can be easily changed in the future when it breaks), never buy mice with TPE (it gets sticky over time), never buy mice beyond 65€ (it´s just overpriced at that point). I can say that after decades of gaming since I started with a Sinclair Spectrum and the Amica 500 in the 80´s. Hope I could help.
Techne, how about the shape? Any difference? More ergo?
No, that is what I hope for. A more plump version
i like the shape of the G502 Hero that i have, its a good shape for my hand
but i need a G502 XXX, make the G502 body out of metal or something, i need it to be heavier, at least double the weight, maybe triple
I just saw the original is on sale for $30 on Amazon. I was thinking about upgrading my current mouse the SteelSeries rival 500 to the OG. I love the rival cause of that side button right where my thumb rests it’s great for knifing in cod
Looks really cool
To me the G502 looks to have just the right number of buttons to be functional and not too many as to be confusing and wasteful.
I have never been a 502 fan, therefore none of these mouse would interest me. If the wire version ever goes on sale for around $50, than I will consider picking it up but if the Kone XP wire is on sale for the same price, than that would be my choice. Great video as always!
I bought the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro from Best Buy on Sunday and the dongle did not work at all. Went to Reddit and seen other comments about the dongle as well. Bought a different one from Amazon and the same issue with dongle. Razer customer service reached out to me to replace the dongles, however I turned it down. Exchanged the Basilsk for the G502 X Plus(same price) and it’s arriving tomorrow. Returning the other Basilsk I bought back to Amazon.
Edit: I should note that the Basilsk worked perfectly with Bluetooth and wired. My computer would not even recognize the dongle was plugged in.
Does your g502 order say we will ship it tomorrow
@@Katasio_ no it doesn’t. Doing store pickup tomorrow.
G502 x wireless highly reminds me on my Aerox 5 wireless.
Aerox 5 wireless is even 26 grams lighter.
I don't know about the battery life bit i can get out of my like two solid long gaming sessions on 2.4ghz connection.
I'm kinda corruisou what's the real battery life on this Logi mouse.
i really don't understand the point of the X plus the RGB are centered on the palm area the lights will be blocked lol -.- i currently have the 502 lightspeed and i bough the white version g502 x lightspeed.
-.-
I need the weight lol thats one of the main reasons im not upgrading, my g502 lightspeed has all weights in the design, other than better rgb looks worse to me i do love sharp edges on stuff
"i like a big plump -" Lmao! congratulations on 250k subs btw!
Would you be interested in covering the Azeron keypad?
Imho, Logitech messed up the DPI buttons on top. The placement on g502 was perfect, now they extended the DPI down button further up, which messes the ergonomics for a medium-sized hand.
Imagine if they got the G502 wireless down to around 80 grams +/− 5 grams that would be a killer mouse imo.
Nice little blade
I'm not sold. Even though the design change isn't too drastic, it doesn't really scream "G502" to me. I thought the visual updates the LIGHTSPEED added were all the mouse really needed after the Proteus Spectrum. I don't see myself upgrading to this version. Maybe the next generation will do it for me.
I was planning to buy a Steelseries Aerox 5, just because I liked how it looked, but after trying it out I found it really fckin uncomfortable. And then I accidentally stumbled upon the G502, a mouse I had never looked into before. It's literally night and day.
the old G502 (without extra weight) weights around 135grams if i'm not mistaken. Therefore if that weight is still problematic, than i think they should upgrade. But otherwise, no need to upgrade. Or for somebody else that hasn't got G502 yet, and like ergonomic many buttons this is a solid choice.
My personal downside is that none of them support bluetooth, while others like Razer and Steelseries wireless already able to use both 2.4ghz dongle and bluetooth.
121 grams. I have the Proteus Spectrum model. BT would have been nice, but it probably would have cost more and keep in mind that BT has a higher latency than the Lightspeed tech. BT is generally not recommended for gaming use.
if they can make a super light version of the g502 x lightspeed it would be my ultimate mouse
I'm upgrading just because of the USB C connector. That alone makes it worth it.
i like this kind of video just relax n chill
I am just more into razer stuff right now but if I switched over I would definitely go with that because they are just comfortable to use. I'm no pro either so this is nice for work and gaming. It's like having a master mouse but more gamery. Glad it's going to usb-c
Do you think this or the Basilisk v3 Pro is better?
@@mysticalrandomness4282 It's probably going to be pretty close. The optional charging and 4000hz wireless dock is definitely a bonus for the basilisk but if I were all in on logitech stuff I could see myself using this mouse.
@@krebsgewehr Ok. I already have a Razer headset so and this would be my first Logitech peripheral so I guess I should go with the v3 Pro? For some reason I really like how clean and minimal this one is though.
@@mysticalrandomness4282 Go for this one then. I think it'll be solid as logitech makes a lot of really nice things. I know that software support is nice for Logitech stuff. Usually works on PC and Mac.
@@krebsgewehr Thanks, Im still not sure though, because Ive heard a lot of good things about the Basilisk too
DO A REVIEW ON THE SERAFIRM A1 GAMING HEADSET PLEASE!!! It definitely would be a great one to review!!
This headset is the first to have a eq for console and all platforms actually. Please check it out 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome review Techne, helped a lot.
The best (imo) g502 clone is the EVGA x17 and it was going got less than $20 on Amazon just recently.
Not sure i like that RGB bar going right across the middle of the body of the mouse. I think I would feel that crack and it would annoy me.
Does anyone else have problems with lightspeed mice and frame skipping ? I’ve used a g703, g pro, super light, g305 and I feel like they all skip frames with the lightspeed connection. Hella frustrating
Have you tried using the dongle and moving it closer to the mouse?
People are so obsessed with the weight, when it really makes a differrence only for the most skilled people, while for most average gamers the shape is much more improtant (with weight under 100g being fine).
u didnt do a click sound test.... :((
You get a like purely for how cheery and happy you come across 😊
Basilisk is tempting... But I love the DPI scroll and play pause options with those two top buttons!
Time to upgrade from the original G502 Proteus core! 👌
For what hands is this mouse for big small medium?
medium
@@TheTechne thxs i ordered mine.
Don't really understand the need for a lighter mouse but then again I curl 50 lb. dumbbells. Had Logitech used exotic materials such as carbon fiber, we'd be looking at a $300+ price range.
