11/29/2023 0 Comments Logitech g502 lightspeed wireless![]() ![]() Think about it: The G502 Lightspeed looks and feels like its predecessor, but includes both a battery and the necessary wireless hardware-and yet it weighs less than the G502s of old. Seven grams might not seem like a lot, but it’s a minor miracle. But the G502 Lightspeed somehow cuts the weight to 114 grams. The G502 Hero weighed in at a whopping 121 grams, and topped out at 139 grams-well above the 100 gram benchmark held as the industry ideal. That said, the Logitech G502 Lightspeed is actually the lightest G502 to-date, addressing a common complaint kicked around since the mouse’s first iteration. Suffice it to say, if you’re determined to weigh down the G502 Lightspeed, you can. You can slot in up to four 2.0 gram weights though-all of them, or two balanced out, or arrayed so the weight distributions thrown to one side or the other like the previous models. Like the older G502s, there’s a removable plastic panel you can peel off-though the one on the G502 Lightspeed is smaller and arrayed more towards the front of the mouse. Thus the Logitech G502 Lightspeed features a second system for weight customization. There’s an obvious caveat though: Powerplay users can’t take advantage, because these weights fill the same space as the Powercore module. Here, take a look at 2018’s G502 Hero and the G502 Lightspeed side-by-side: The wired and wireless Logitech G502 might as well be twins. It’s an amazing design feat, one so clever the average user won’t even notice. All the particulars of the G502 have been recreated, the features that have kept it on our list of the best gaming mice since its inception. Even the dual-mode scroll returns, allowing you to switch between smooth and notched scroll modes at the press of a button. It’s still one of the most comfortable mice I’ve ever used-highly subjective, sure, but I’m far from alone in that assessment.Īs for functionality, the eleven-button layout remains intact, including the tilt wheel and the pair along the side of the left mouse button. It has the same gentle curve, the same elongated oval footprint, the same compact thumb rest off the left side. This is the G502, the same one I used daily for three years straight between 20, and off-and-on after as well. $250 is a lot to spend for a mouse and mouse pad, regardless of its futuristic feature set, but if you have the money to spare, the G502 is an excellent product, even divorced from it's supportive sibling.And in that regard the Logitech G502 Lightspeed is an unmitigated success. If you do want mat charging, it's going to cost you another $99.99. Even without the Powerplay charging mat, the G502 retails for $149.99 (£129.99 in the UK). The G502 Lightspeed is a tremendous gaming mouse and easy to recommend.if you can afford it. It suits my hand really well and outside of the sniper quibble, all of the buttons are well positioned and easy to reach-I never found myself pushing the wrong button of a pair by mistake, or accidentally unlocking the scroll wheel. You can also sync lighting between the two peripherals in G Hub if you prefer a unified aesthetic across your desk. It's completely free of the detection issues I encountered testing Razer's similar Hyperflux charging mat solution, which lost tracking near the edges of the mat, and charges the mouse at a very brisk rate. The mat not only continuously charges the mouse on the fly but if you pair them in Logitech's G Hub software suite allows your PC to register the mouse without having to plug in the USB Nano dongle. Probably the flashiest of the G502's features is its compatibility with the Powerplay charging mat. I occasionally found myself pushing the sniper button by accident when moving the mouse or reaching for other buttons, and while a brief drop in CPI is certainly not a deal-breaker, it was a minor annoyance. My only minor issue with the button array is that the left side of the mouse is a bit over-crowded-it's host to a pair of CPI buttons, two proper thumb buttons, and a sniper button that drops the CPI to 400 by default for precise aiming. The buttons on the latest G502 are clicky, sensitive, and mostly well positioned. The G502 does charge quickly, up from nearly empty to 100% inside 90 minutes, and offers up to 60 hours of battery life with the lights off (48 hours with RGB enabled on the logo and CPI indicator). ![]() Rated for 400 IPS, so it won't drop tracking or stutter when you're wildly sweeping it across the mat, Logitech boasts the latest iteration of the HERO delivers that excellent performance at 10x the power efficiency of previous generations. The core of the G502 Lightspeed is Logitech's 16,000 CPI HERO sensor.
