Review on Logitech G G502 SE Hero Gaming Mouse Black/White by Adam Wawrzyski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product, I advise you to try it.

Nuance with additional buttons. The "sniper" button, located under the pressure of the thumb, interferes. It protrudes too much from the body and is too shifted back. It would be worth making it either thinner, or moved a little forward. Wheels and buttons rattle. The second was fixed by the same foam rubber, which was written above. The case itself is solid, for the most part. But the area under the thumb still flexes a little. At the same time, the actual clicks of the buttons and the wheels during use are quiet. I would even say almost inaudible. And the wheel with the steps turned off, of course, is generally silent. The wire is soft, apparently - silicone, not PVC - which is good. But too thin, in my opinion. One random twist and goodbye. Wire without braid. Personally, I would prefer a stiffer, but thicker and braided wire. There is a reduction in the cost of the model, because the old versions of this mouse had both a metal wheel and a braided wire. The weights inside the mouse are not held on the lid, as is usually the case, but are inserted tightly into special lodgements. The lid is attached with a magnet. A latch at least like on the battery compartments of remotes (for example) - and that would be better. After all, this compartment does not open so often, but more often - generally once after purchase. And the magnetic compartment makes dragging a mouse in a backpack along with a laptop (which I love) a risky business, you can lose both the cover and the weights. By the way, after a month of use, the loads still had to be pulled out - because of the narrow body, the thumb hurt mercilessly. The mouse has become too light for me, but the finger now feels better. Technically, the mouse shows itself positively. But kosyachnaya ergonomics spoils everything. For more or less large hands - I do not recommend. For medium-large, I think it will be normal, especially if you like very light button presses. A lot can be forgiven for the optical wheel sensor. Only here the price is completely inadequate. I bought it for 3.4k, which, in principle, is normal. But not more.

Pros
  • Comfortable for a large hand, but with reservations (see below). Heavy on its own, but there are also weights that can be placed in several different configurations, which allows you to weigh the mouse in both roll and trim, if you know what I mean. Relatively many buttons. There is also a nuance here, about it in the comments. Optical sensor in the wheel. That is, if it dies, it’s definitely not from wear and tear, like resistive encoders in budget mice. It is possible to turn off the steps and get smooth scrolling. Flipping through the Internet and long documents is very comfortable. The steps, in turn, are mega-clear. The main buttons are Omron switches for 50 million clicks. I liked these mics even on my previous mouse from HP. The sides are rubberized, without a pronounced relief, but the existing "tread" is enough to create huge traction. Sidewall shape. Grasping. Even if there were no rubber bands on the sides, the mouse would not fall out of the hands. Conveniently located side buttons back and forth. I would like to move them forward a bit, but still the location is good (addition after a few more months: it would be better to raise them, sometimes there are miss clicks) MMB is easily pressed with a relaxed middle finger. A huge plus, on most of my mice, to press the wheel and not scroll it, you need to twist your finger. Visual indicator of DPI modes. The sensor to disrupt, in my opinion, is generally unrealistic. Yes, and rides on any surface that I have tried. Excellent sensor.
Cons
  • The main disadvantage: ergonomics. The mouse itself is narrow and low. And if the second is unimportant, then the narrowness of the body comes around with pain in the joints of the thumb. Too narrow left button, shifted and deployed to the right, to the central plane of the mouse. Because of this, in the 1-3-1 grip, the index finger does not lie on it, but on the additional buttons on the left, but even from them it hangs down. To press LMB, you must either twist your finger to the right, or grab 1-2-2. Which is inconvenient for me. At the same time, the ring finger lies to the right of the RMB, on a side invented here for some reason. But this is not so critical against the backdrop of a narrow case. Out of the box, there is no free play on the left and right buttons, combined with VERY little pressing force. It seems that the button can be pressed by sneezing on it. And due to the lack of free play, this leads to constant miss clicks. To avoid this, you need to keep your index finger forever overhang. Who needs such a light touch? Fixed by putting a strip of foam rubber under the paintwork - a crutch! Controversial design with a bunch of decorative slots in the case. Maintain cleanliness. Wheel — plastic "metal". Not slippery, but for not the cheapest mouse, this is a very strange decision. Why not rubber? And then, "silver" plastic likes to peel off. Whether it will come off here, time will tell. There is no color differentiation of pants . sensa modes. The indicator is good, but I like it more when each mode is displayed in a backlight color. Here, color illumination only displays profiles. The G9 button next to the button to turn off the scroll steps feels too similar to the same steps button. And it's too deep in the back. Pressing is extremely uncomfortable. Reverse software. There are really no settings (although everything essential is available), and the interface was made by a man from Jupiter. Thank you at least for saving the settings in the memory of the mouse, so that this muck can be cut down and never seen again.
