Hi,

I fancy a change from my G500 which has been great but I like new shiny things, can anyone recommend anything that has the following features for FPS mostly BF4 -

Thumb buttons
Free scroll option
Able to change the sensitivity
Heavy or weights that can be added
Wired
Palm grip
Nothing too cheesy gamer style

Thanks
 
It has everything but I'm not a fan of how it looks at all, really not fussed on RGB either, is that the only difference from the original?

Are there any others?

Thanks
 
Thanks, maybe I'll just have to get over its looks. what kind of surface do you use it on?

I noticed on the Logitech site linked above it said it was tested directly on wood veneer IE no surface.
 
Ok thanks, I need to weigh up the differences between the 502 and the 700, kind of leaning toward the 502 at the moment, Tons Hardware gave it 10/10 as a great all rounder

The Corsair M65 is supposed to be good too though
 
Stuff it I'm going to get the 502, Setter when will the Spectrum version be in stock please, the current version shows as out of stock so assume its EOL or will more be coming in?
 
Thanks for the compare thing I didn't see that yesterday, the 502 has all the boxes ticked for everything I want so going to go with that, just waiting for OCUK to get stock of the model in

Cheers
 
Thanks for the info, I ruled the M65 out, definitely want a 502 just waiting for stock

Thinking of going for a softer mouse mat, I use a Steal Series 4HD at the mo but fancy an SS QCK, for £9 they are worth a go, anyone have any experience of a 502 + QCK?

Cheers

No but please come back and tell us what its like afterwads. As don't know which ones to get.

And is it really necessary (a proper mat)? just have the wooden tabletop here.

I would say so, tried my G500 on my desk and my 4HD and the difference is night and day, the 4HD is great but I need something more comfortable

Looks interesting, especially the vibration thing. Its optical and not laser though, not sure of the real life difference. No reviews yet and cant see if it has free wheel scroll anywhere
 
Oh yeah, don't know why I thought it was optical

Thanks for the feedback, what makes it not as comfortable as a G500, I find the G500 very comfortable and was hoping the 502 would be similar, does it not meet the palm of your hand as much? That's pretty important for me

I love the free scrolling, I use it all the time and would miss it if I didn't have it
 
Hi,

Just to let you know I bought a Proteus Core but unfortunately its having to go back, the design is completely different from previous Logitech mice and is causing me to get cramp in my hand, shame as the sensor, smoothness and tracking of the mouse is great but ergonomically its very uncomfortable for me.

I need something with a wide ass :)

It's really a claw grip mouse rather than a palm mouse. I always found the G5 and G500 to be slightly too small for palm grip as well though.

What do you use please? Reading pages and pages of info and still not sure whats worth a risk of ordering to suit my grip, I think I want something with a big ass to fit the base of my hand
 
G700S looks the right size and shape but its wireless so too expensive for me, even the £70 was too expensive for the Proteus for features I'll never use. I'm looking for something cheaper this time which is comfortable, I keep looking at the Zowie range but there has been a product recall

My G500 also double clicks on the right click, annoying but I can live with it for the comfort until I find a replacement
 
That's great thanks for the pics, the part that fit in your palm at the top seems thinner and less rounded, this the problem I had with th 502 although it doesn't look as bad plus I need a lighter mouse these days as I have an issue with my wrist

Appreciate the feedback
