Logitech re-introduces the G502 gaming mouse with a wired and wireless version, the G502 X and the G502 X PLUS

Logitech has announced the latest versions of the world’s most popular gaming mouse, the G502 X and the G502 X PLUS with a raft of new innovative additions to enhance your gaming chops.

“The G502 is an icon in gaming and we know that the community has been looking for the next-generation offering,” said Ujesh Desai, vice president and general manager of Logitech Gaming. “We reimagined the iconic G502 with design and engineering updates that elevate the legendary gaming mouse into a new era of play. With lighter materials and cutting-edge technology, the new G502 X promises to continue the G502 tradition of ultimate performance and total control.” 

The new G502 X has been updated with Lightforce hybrid optic-mechanical switches which provide greater speed and reliability along with precise actuation — just what you want in a gaming device. Lightforce combines microswitch technology with the benefits of optical switches (speed, performance, and reliability) giving the tactile sensation that every gamer wants. The end result is an ultra-low latency optical actuation with a crisp tactile mechanical click.

Included in the multitude of buttons a reversible and removable DPI-shift button that allows you to customise the mouse based on your hand size and grip style. The scroll wheel has been redesigned with a higher stability but reduced weight but continues to provide the G502’s “dual hyper-fast infinite scroll and precise ratchet modes.”

The sensor underneath is Logitech’s HERO 25K high-precision gaming sensor bringing amazing accuracy and response times. The sensor and Lightforce results in a 68 percent faster response time than the previous version. The wireless version uses Lightspeed wireless protocol to connect to your PC and is compatible with Logitech G Powerplay wireless charging mats.

As you would expect in a gaming device the RGB 8-LED lighting is customisable and adapts how the mouse is being used at the time.

Both the Logitech G502 X (wired) and G502 X PLUS (wireless) gaming mice are available in black and white and will be available on LogitechG.com and selected retailers in September 2022 for 9.95 and 9.95 respectively. For more information on the new G502 X line head on over to the LogitechG website.
