If you’re looking for a fantastic gaming mouse deal, you’ve found it. Amazon has slashed the price of the Logitech G502X wired mouse, one of the newest G502 mice models, but there is a catch. While both the black and white models are discounted at Amazon, the white mouse benefits from a slightly higher saving of 33% off the price, while the black model only has 26% off.
While we weren’t huge fans of the first G502 mouse model, which had its 10th birthday a few months ago, some of the newer iterations of this Logitech mouse are genuinely some of the best gaming mouse models you can buy right now. However, you’ll need to grab this deal quickly, as this sale won’t last forever.
While we haven’t put the G502 X to the test, we have tried out the non-wired G502 X Plus – you can read our G502 X Plus review here. While the Plus model has a wireless connection, the G502 X is pretty much the same in terms of features, specs, and shape. What’s more, the G502 X is 17g lighter than the Plus model.
The G502X boasts a solid build, and we found that the shape of Logitech’s current G502 mice makes them comfortable to hold in your hand. We found it works best with a palm grip, where you have most of your hand resting on the mouse, but it’s still perfectly usable with a fingertip grip as well, while suiting a lot of different hand sizes.
One of the features that appeals most to me is the dual-mode scroll wheel, which enables you to switch between either a free-spinning wheel, or a ratcheted mode with individual notches. Its high-quality Hero 25K sensor is also the same model used on the G502X Plus, which we found offered “essentially flawless performance” in our tests. This makes for an ultra-responsive and seamless-feeling gaming experience, which I personally think is a must for a good gaming mouse.
Now that you’ve got your new mouse sorted, you might want to think about upgrading other aspects of your setup, from investing in one of the best gaming keyboards to picking out the best gaming headset.
