After almost half a year of hunting for a mouse, the choice came down to between this one and the steeseries rival 600. I've been staring at this model for a long time, but in the end, I went with this one. G502 is more comfortable to hold in the hand. In general, I believe that the issue with the wheel is a pretty significant disadvantage because it is obvious that the stopper is unable to deal with the blocking of the heavy wheel for an extended period of time. In any event, I do not have any remorse for the money that was spent, and I will certainly advise others to get the mouse; nonetheless, the mouse was not successful in all 5 of the tests. I will say it again: two months of the wheel functioning normally is not nearly enough time.
