I've used one of these guys for several years now. Still work. Logitech make a solid mouse.

I love the 502 but the first one I had ended up getting an issue where it would double click somewhat randomly after about 3 years. I liked it enough that I bought a new wireless 502 to replace it but wouldn't call it buy it for life.

I also got the double click issue and read a solution online: bang it on your desk. Sure enough, it worked!

But yeah, time will tell if that’s a BIFL solution.

Fair enough. I'm using the dav3pro at the moment. When my g502 had one of the feet start peeling, they sent me a new mouse and let me pick any with the same value. Picked the superlight and now I won't use a heavy mouse lol

That sounds like a great deal. I switched to a razer basilisk v3 and I can’t complain.

I blew some canned air into the crevasses and so far so good

The rubber on mine has completely lost its friction and is no longer pleasant to use. Metal scroll wheel has no proper finish and ends up corroding after the paint peels off

Came here to say this, have had this mouse for over 6 years now and still working perfectly through thousands of hours of gaming, general use, and now work!

Also have one and have loved it. Ergonomic and tons of features.

Another happy g502 owner here. Mine must be going on 7 years now and barely shows any wear. You really can’t go wrong.

G502 wireless or nothing.

For gaming, it's too heavy though but still a great mouse. Btw I didn't think it was too heavy till after switching and it took a while to adjust

This...well actually mine is a g5 but close enough. 14+ yrs old and still perfect. My razor deathadder prior to that lasted 2. I may have aggressive counterstrike games to blame for that tho

Fabric cable - why?

Braided mesh cable cover is what they mean.

5spd4wd t1_jbg4ojs wrote

Oh. Thanks. Braided with fabric or metal or somehing made to resemble metal?

wuhkay t1_jbi5q93 wrote

I think it's like a nylon. But I am not 100% sure. I know it's not metal.

Edit: looked again, seems like more of a polyester.

I've had bad luck with that type of cable.

wuhkay t1_jbi6fq9 wrote

It really does depend on the brand and quality. My logitech mice have been great, but I have had cheap braided cables thet get weird.

5spd4wd t1_jbi77la wrote

I tried a couple as as charging cables and they frayed and pulled away at the ends. Went back to OEM cables. So I wouldn't want a mouse with one.

I have never had an issue like that with a Logitech mouse, but I get the concern.
