“The G502 has been my go-to mouse for years, and it’s the
perfect balance for me when it comes to getting some extra buttons
while not overwhelming me. This mouse is extremely comfortable to
use for extended periods of time. The G502 has a sleek and
cool-looking design. It has always been an incredible go-to for
gamers who want a couple of extra, easy-to-reach buttons and a
smooth experience that allows them to game without interruption!”
said Meg Kaylee, a popular gaming streamer and producer who has
been using a G502 since 2019.
From the start, G502’s design has prioritized gamers’ needs.
With each update, Logitech G’s team of engineers and designers
quantified what factors influence gameplay and brought those
insights to life with the original G502 and every model since.
Starting in 2014, Logitech G introduced the first G502, with
deep personalization, unparalleled tracking performance and
responsiveness, and maximum comfort, followed by the G502 Proteus
Spectrum in 2016, providing gamers with up to 16.8 million
customizable lighting color options. From there, 2018 witnessed the
launch of the G502 HERO mouse, designed with Logitech G’s HERO 25K
sensor—the highest-performing sensor at the time. In 2019, the G502
was upgraded with LIGHTSPEED wireless technology for incredible
responsiveness and reliability and POWERPLAY wireless charging; and
in 2022, the G502 was upgraded to G502 X, G502 X LIGHTSPEED, and
G502 X PLUS with LIGHTFORCE hybrid optical-mechanical switches.
“At Logitech G, we take great pride in what we have accomplished
over the last decade,” said Ujesh Desai, general manager of
Logitech G. “What sets G502 apart—cutting-edge technology and
innovative design—has become the gold standard for gaming mice
across the board.”
In designing G502, the team of designers and engineers had to
quantify what factors most influenced gameplay while delivering a
mouse that provided an abundance of superior features. The original
G502 mouse featured a powerful, highly accurate, precise sensor
that could be tuned to a gamer’s mousing surface for superior
tracking and optimal sensor performance. By leveraging technologies
like heat mapping and experimentation with surface geometry, the
team created a mouse that delivered deep comfort, featured a new
visual design, and performed like an extension of the gamer’s
hand.
“The G502 design optimizes every part of the hand, tailoring
itself to every desired gaming need and over delivering in button
placement, which maximizes our gaming experience. Tools like this
are true extensions of ourselves and enhance our abilities
tenfold,” said Jeremy “Squatingdog” Pedron, creator and gamer.
