Logitech is well known to be one of the best PC gaming accessory manufacturers, with a solid line of gaming keyboards and mice. That been said, the Logitech G502 gaming mouse is no exception to that rule.

As someone who works on a computer and plays video games when time permits, it's safe to say I do a lot of mousing. For years I've favored the Logitech Performance MX 's big, comfortable design and its 'Darkfield' laser sensor has always been more than capable of keeping up despite being wireless...

Between its comfortable layout, 4K-friendly 12,000 DPI, surface calibration software and its sub-$100 price tag, the G502 seems like Logitech's new go-to enthusiast mouse.

Its cord is no trouble but the G502 isn't wireless and that could be a con for you. It may also sit a little low for someone with a large hand and a preference for the palm grip.

The Proteus Core may sound like an essential component for space travel, but it’s also the latest precision gaming mouse to leave the Logitech Labs that packs a Hercules-on-crack punch on paper.

The Logitech G502 is one heck of a mouse. It’s got a great build quality and a great feel to it. The soft-sleeved USB cable is a great touch and looks amazing. The design is sleek and as long as you like blue you’re all set with the G502.

I have tried out more a dozen Logitech mice since the 1990s and I must say, the latest versions today seem to miss some of the design finesse that the famed mouse maker is known for.

It’s really difficult telling gaming mice apart nowadays. All feature highly adjustable DPI or sensitivity settings. All are somewhat colourful and snazzy with splashes of style littering their compact bodies.

How do you build a successor to the best selling gaming mouse to date? This tall task was taken on by Logitech while developing the G502 Proteus Spectrum gaming mouse . The answer? Some RGB loving, obviously.

The Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum does everything a perfect mouse should do. It's highly customisable, it looks good, works flawlessly and it is durable.
