Logitech announced a new gaming mouse titled the 'G502 X.' This is a reimagining of the company's G502 which, since its launch, has grown to be the company's best-selling mouse and one of the best-selling mice in the gaming world. The G502 has previously received upgraded iterations such as the G502 Hero, which allowed for weight customization.
The G502 X, though, is an ultra-lightweight mouse with a thin-wall exoskeleton and a lightweight scroll wheel. The mouse features Logitech's 'Lightspeed' technology that ensures a fast and reliable response time. In addition to its low weight, the G502 X is notable as it features additional RGB lights. Whereas the traditional G502 and G502 Hero have an RGB-enabled Logitech logo, the G502 X also features an eight-LED lightbar.
Lastly, the G502 X is available in white and black, in both wired and wireless variations, at an MSRP that ranges from $80 USD for the wired model up to $160 for the wireless, RGB-equipped model.
