Analysis and first impressions of the new Logitech G502 Lightspeed

The new version of the Logitech G502 Lightspeed offers us a further step on what we already knew about this popular mouse model that delights users who spend hours playing on their PC. In this case and after the presentation made by Logitech itself in the German capital just over a week ago, we have the opportunity to test one of these new G502 Lightspeed.

Its main novelty in addition to a somewhat improved design and more balanced weights focuses directly on the wireless connectivity of the new G502 Lightspeed. This renewed mouse offers the possibility of playing with little latency to the current games without cables, so the demand of the millions of users of the original G502 launched in 2014 was met with this new model presented. The new mouse has all the characteristics to become a top seller just like its predecessor did during these years.

Design and main specifications of the new Logitech G502 Lightspeed

When we focus on the design of this new mouse we find the necessary improvements in terms of wireless connectivity, we can also see that it adapts perfectly to all types of gamer since the size, although small, has perfect ergonomics . The main manufacturing materials are ABS and this makes it quite light but adds the option to include weights inside in a simple way to perfectly adapt to the player. Logitech did not want to change the design much over the previous version and is that when something works it is better not to touch it too much.

These are them main specifications Techniques of the new Logitech G502:

• Size 132 x 75 x 40
• Weight 114g + 16g thanks to the 6 additional weights
• Hero 16K sensor designed for this G502
• 32-bit ARM microprocessor
• 100-16.000 DPI
• Black color
• Without lighting it can last up to 60 hours of intense gameplay

Obviously we have all the configuration options with its 11 configurable buttons in the same arrangement as the wired version. In fact, as we have said previously, they have modified the design or the options of the mouse little, what they have done is an improvement in its internal hardware that is really important.

Sensitivity and power go hand in hand with this G502 Lightspeed

And it is just as important to have a powerful mouse in terms of specifications and that is really responsive for games. In this case the best thing about this G502 Lightspeed is that you can see the hard work they have done from the brand to not lose performance in the mouse and in the presentation event they highlighted the hard research work done so that the power consumption and power of the device did not affect the player in long hours of gaming. That is why this new Hero 16K sensor designed exclusively for this G502 achieves that the consumption drops up to 10 times more than other similar mice.

The only bad thing in this case is that the way to charge this new G502 Lightspeed while you play is as it happens with the G903 and G703 Series models, withthe Logitech Powerplay mouse pad.

Installing the new mouse on the PC is very simple

It is really easy to install this mouse on our computer and we simply have to download the device software using the pendrive that comes in the box, and connect the USB cable. Now we can download the software on your computer and enjoy the different game configuration options that this new G502 Lightspeed offers us. If you have the older version of this wired mouse you will realize that it is very similar if not the same.

It is a simple software that is provided to facilitate the desired configuration of each player, it also offers the option of configuring the macros directly from this software, which makes the installation process much easier. It is not a complicated task at all And if you have a Logitech brand device in your possession, you will surely get the installation software quickly.

Very high level for real gamers

In my particular case I can say that I'm not that "extreme Counter Strike player" anymore but during the hours that what we have played with this new Logitech G502 on the PC has been truly spectacular. It perfectly withstands hours of "home" game play and the battery is not a problem at all. Then we have the options to change the instant DPI thanks to the button and this is appreciated in some moments of the game, but what surprised me the most is undoubtedly the agility of the mouse and how little or nothing it loses in terms of speed being a mouse wireless. This is what is most surprising and it is that a wireless mouse had not surprised me in games for a long time, yes, this is one of the top mice and its price shows it.

We will be able to calmly play Fornite, Blizzard, Battlefield 5 or any game thanks to its precision and being wireless, all it does is favor the game since we can have more ease in movements. The presentation event of Logitech the chosen game was the great League of Legends, game of which I can say that I played for the first time in this event and that your fans forgive me but I am very bad. With the rest of the games that we have been able to test now more calmly, we realize the spectacular precision of the G502 Lightspeed.

Editor's opinion

We can highlight many aspects of this new mouse but we will stay with the most important in my view. The great autonomy of the Logitech mouse, added to the economic design and the good work of its wireless technology make us think we're playing with a wired mouse And so that's really the great thing about this new Logitech G502.

We can think that the purchase of one of these wireless mice may mean a loss of our AIM or even having to charge more constantly, losing hours of play and it is not true. The technology implemented in this mouse make us forget all that and only let's enjoy the versatility it offers and the spectacular specifications what's wrong with it. If you are planning to buy a wireless mouse right now to spend hours and hours playing your favorite games, keep this new Logitech model in mind since we are sure that it will not leave you indifferent.
