Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

I moved to this mouse from another top model of Roccat: Kone XTD. Logitech's sensor is better, although the horse's is also very, very good. The Kone XTD is noticeably larger and not suitable for claw grip at all. After 5 years of using it, I really liked the shape of the G502, although at first my fingers and palm were strained due to the fact that the mouse is smaller and narrower, although both have the same weight. By the way, the shape makes the G502 seem lighter than the Kone XTD.

I will describe the impressions of the games: just amazing! Unreal control and convenience. I haven't played Counter-Strike 1.6 for many years (I switched to Quake Live), I decided to test the mouse there on a CSDM HS server. As a result - the first place, and I haven't played it for a long time. Playing Quake Live is also an unreal pleasure.

I highly recommend this mouse (or its younger model proteus core) for purchase, since the price tag has fallen and for 4 thousand this is a very, very cool mouse.

Pros

- Super sensor, it's a pleasure to play - Very nice shape - Lots of function keys - Good software for setting everything and everything in the mouse - Possibility to redistribute the weight balance with weights - Materials, rubberized elements, soft touch plastic - Nice backlight (about 16 million colors is a lie, although the range of colors is not bad) - Comfortable with both palm grip and claw grip - Four position wheel - Very crisp clicks and clipping of the mouse wheel - Soft cord, ferrite filter on it, braid

Cons

- People with large palms will have to relearn how to hold the mouse a bit - The wheel backlash (subjectively, in fact, it does not interfere at all at all) - The wheel is made of metal, because of this it is heavy and even with scrolling fixed, inertia is felt, although there have never been any "false" scrolling triggers. Also subjective. - The sniper button is not very convenient, you need to reach with your thumb. Again, subjective. - Many slots, potential receivers of dirt and dust - If the fingers on the buttons sweat a lot, when you remove your finger, the button may stick and a slight "squabble" will be heard. - LMB and PKP play a little due to design features - If you are a fan of lowering the mouse strongly on the table, it will rattle. I play with headphones, I don’t notice these moments at all
