"Three thumb buttons plus two next to the LMB ... I find it's enough ... I've struggled with actual MMO mice being uncomfortable to use"
"binding strafe to the two side buttons having character movement completely dedicated to my right hand. ... feel really improved my gameplay ... Also binded the other two macro buttons next to left click as modifiers (like alt/ctrl) for more keybind options. ... It frees up your left hand completely for just using abilities allowing you to reach more buttons/have more keybinds."
"I believe this is the main reason mice like the G502 are as popular as they are; 2-3 more buttons than the standard lightweight gaming mouse ... i know many dont, but i prefer having crouch/jump on my mouse so i can slide cancel or dropshot easier for example. ... agreed, or gray zone, or arma, or apex, or the finals ... in something like arma where you have helicopter x and y axis, both leans and ready stances, as well as countless other nuance, a couple extra buttons your left hand doesnt have to focus on makes a difference ... i can reload and run at same time because run is pinky, and reload is index, but to do both takes my index off of d, where reload on mouse doesnt effect aim or motion because im still on wasd and...im reloading, so not shooting anyway. ... on the contrary, most people do use them thus the popularity of the g502. in this sub, we assume the GPX is the best-selling, most used mouse, but its really the g502 by a mile and its despite its shape and weight definitely not because of it. studies/polls into this show its overwhelmingly because of the number of buttons, and that having 1 button over the razer basilisk makes a huge difference in sales."

"G502 fits my meat mallets."

"If you use a tractor beam, Logitech mice with the freewheel. Mx3 or the 502 are awesome. ... You're missing the fun of the spinny wheel!"
"G502 because it has a button to let the scroll wheel free wheel. That's saying enough"
"I have a Logitech g502 and I use the ability to switch between free wheel and click on the mouse wheel constantly for SC."

"Literally too heavy and causes me wrist pain lmao. ... I bought a 502x as like a "let's see" and it was immediately giving me wrist pain."
"I use a g502 with all weights attached 💀💀 ... I switch between a g502 and a g pro super light and the difference is like running and waddling through water"
"Thing is a brick ... After using light weight mice it's hard to go back to that weight."

"actually made my wrist actively hurt while using it ... It's so bad for ergo."
"It's too damn narrow at the grip. ... Anything under 63mm grip area width gave me cramps in my hand"

had it for a few years now and it’s awesome. never had an issue.
r/logitech • What is your experience like with the G502 X Wired Gaming Mouse? ->the fact that a wired g502x is 70 aud rn and a wireless one is 300 is wild when i can get a keychron m3 for 75 or something more comparable to a g502 from keychron for 110 aud max, and they're amazing mice too, not just cheap garbage. just proves that you pay for the logitech name, i guess.
r/LogitechG • Logitech 😘 ->[Logitech G502 Hero](https://talospc.com/product/logitech-g502-hero-wired-gaming-mouse/) or [Logitech G502 X](https://talospc.com/product/logitech-g502-x-wired-gaming-mouse/). Both excellent, both not too expensive. Had to buy a 502 Hero because I need the extra buttons for macros, best mouse so far. My 402 has 3 buttons double clicking (after 6 or 7 years), and the 203 i got doesn't have the buttons (excellent budget mouse as well).
r/pcmasterrace • What mouse should I get for PC gaming? ->I've been running with it for about 2 years now, it's nice and bulky, the wire is long enough and the little wing on the side for my thumb is a must have now with any mouse I use
r/logitech • What is your experience like with the G502 X Wired Gaming Mouse? ->I don't know you hand size, but I found the G502X to be a bit narrow in the thumb area for me, and the Basilisk to be roomy.
r/MouseReview • Hows the Logitech g502 x wired gaming mouse holding up long term? ->G502X has 3 thumb buttons, 2 LMB side buttons, and 3 wheel buttons. ASUS Chakram X Origin has 4 thumb buttons + 4 joystick buttons on left side + wheel Steelseries Aerox 5 has 5 thumb buttons + wheel
r/MouseReview • Mouse with 4-5+ side buttons, but not 8+ like MMO mice? ->The base g502x (wired) is the lightest out of all g502x variants, you just need to an elevated support to hold the cable so it doesn't touch your desk and cause friction
r/MouseReview • "best" gaming mous for me? ->That's the reason I bought a G502 X even though I got a Viper v3. While you don't need extra buttons on tactical fps like CS, it's literally the exception since most other genres of game do benefit from extra mouses buttons. Even arena shooters do. I'm not asking for Naga clones with 12 side buttons, but I wish we had more high-end options of mouses with 3-4 side buttons instead of 2. It's honestly the perfect middle ground, and contrary to what people think, 2 more side buttons wouldn't make the mouse much heavier.
r/MouseReview • I believe this is the main reason mice like the G502 are as popular as they are; 2-3 more buttons than the standard lightweight gaming mouse ->G502x wired is pretty good, bit bulky but I like the extra buttons. G203 also a great budget mouse, also liked how light my old G203 Prodigy felt which can help if your tracking fast movement on screen.
r/pcmasterrace • The 25 most recommended gaming mouse according to Reddit (in the past year as of Jun 2025) ->I know you said 40, but this is peak. You might be able to find better sale in your country https://www.logitech.com/en-eu/shop/p/g502-x-wired-lightforce.910-006138 Don't go for older version, with pure mechanical buttons, as they tend to start double clicking after few years
r/Warthunder • What's mouse would you recommend for the game? Budget 40€ ->I find the scroll wheel very loud and rattling.
r/logitech • What is your experience like with the G502 X Wired Gaming Mouse? ->Same, but the wired G502X
r/thefinals • So which rodent is guiding your crosshair today? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
