Of course, if you didn’t already love the G502 line, the G502 X Plus isn’t going to convert you. But it’s still largely the G502 mouse you know and love. The G502 X Plus is a nice update to Logitech’s G502 line: It sports an attractive redesign, an upgraded sensor and new (hopefully durable) optical-mechanical switches. These estimates are over 2.4GHz wireless, as the G502 X Plus does not have Bluetooth.

The Roccat Kone XP Air gets 100 hours with its lighting turned on (and it’s basically a disco-in-a-mouse). The G502 X Plus works well enough out of the box, but you’ll need to install Logitech’s G Hub gaming peripheral software if you want to program controls, customize lighting, and manually adjust and set DPI steps.īut if you turn the G502 X Plus’ lighting on, its battery life drops to just 37 hours, which is much less impressive.

It’s a good option for gamers who play a variety of games (and/or who are intimidated by mice with 20+ buttons). Its five auxiliary side buttons and four-way scroll wheel, plus its second layer of programmability via Logitech G-Shift means it has enough programmable controls to be a decent MMO/MOBA mouse.

Size and weight aside, the G502 X Plus’ responsiveness and reliability make it a great gaming mouse for a variety of games. Size alone suggests this mouse is made for palm grippers who want ergonomics and comfort, not claw- and fingertip-grippers who want to zip all over the mouse pad. The G502 X Plus is also just a very large mouse. As I mentioned earlier, it’s not a lightweight mouse (though it is a little lighter than the similarly-sized Basilisk V3 Pro). The G502 X Plus performed solidly in a variety of games, thanks to its low-latency 2.4GHz wireless connection and smooth PTFE feet, as well as its speedy, tactile switches.
