Logitech has three new gaming mice, and the wireless ones finally have USB-C up front. That\u2019s right, Micro USB\u2019s reign of terror continues to be on the decline as Logitech\u2019s new G502 X series<\/a> gaming mice come to succeed the company\u2019s popular G502 line.<\/p>\n

The three mice \u2014 G502 X, G502 X Lightspeed, and G502 X Plus \u2014 also now include hybrid optical-mechanical buttons for greater responsiveness as well as a more precise 25,600 dpi \u201cHero 25K\u201d sensor. They\u2019ll have an overall lighter weight and come in both black and white.<\/p>\n

While the mice sport the company\u2019s new \u201cLightforce\u201d hybrid optical-mechanical switches that are designed to utilize the speed of optical technology, they also include the clicking satisfaction of a traditional mouse button. Logitech claims that the optical switch also wears less, so it\u2019ll last longer than a fully mechanical one.<\/p>\n

The base G502 X is wired and has the lightest weight of the bunch at 89 grams. Both the G502 X Lightspeed and G502 X Plus have 68 percent faster connectivity than the previous G502 Lightspeed<\/a>, but only the G502 X Plus comes with the company\u2019s gameplay-reacting Lightsync RGB feature.<\/p>\n

The slight redesigns include a reversible DPI shift button for more customizability, and if you\u2019re a gaming novice like me, you\u2019ll like the fact that you can remove it if you don\u2019t use it. Logitech also lightened the scroll wheel to make free spinning easier but can also switch to ratcheted scrolling.<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s get this straight: the real deal for getting this \u2014 or upgrading from the previous model \u2014 is the USB-C connectivity on the wireless models. They can be played wired in a pinch but can also last on one charge for up to 140 hours for the Lightspeed or up to 120 hours for the Plus (with RGB off). You can also achieve unlimited battery life on both using Logitech\u2019s magical<\/a> Powerplay wireless charging mouse pad. The wireless models can share a receiver dongle with any of the following Logitech G keyboards: G915, G915 TKL, or G715.<\/p>\n

You can preorder the new G502 X line on Logitech\u2019s G website<\/a> now. The wired G502 X<\/a> is going for $79, and the wireless Lightspeed model<\/a> is $139, and both will ship next month. The Plus will set you back<\/a> $159 and should start shipping today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
