Logitech G602 Wireless Gaming Mouse Review

In the world of competitive gaming, every player is unique with their equipment preference. Some players want small, soft keys on their keyboard while others want keys that a blind person can see.

It has 11 customizable buttons that can be mapped anyway you see fit based on your preference or need for a specific game. In addition to the usual three main buttons, there are six on the left hand side that rest nicely right above the thumb, and are easily accessible without much movement. There are also two buttons on the top that can be reached by the index finger.

The layout makes it easy for any player to be able to macro out the buttons without concern of being able to actually hit them when the time comes.

The casing of the mouse is also a nice design in the fact that you don’t have to worry about slipping. The casing has just the right amount of grip on it that it stops you from slipping without impeding on your movement when you actually have to slide your fingers.

The mouse comes with a Logitech G-Series receiver that connects at 2.4GHz, and while that may lead to a concern of lag, the G-series receiver dedicates the full bandwidth to the mouse. It even includes a range extender just in case you will be a little further from your PC than usual.

Performance:

The Logitech G602 can look good and feel good while holding it, but all of that doesn’t matter if the mouse doesn’t perform.

Let’s get it out of the way right now, the G602 performs, and performs well.

During hours of gameplay, which included a seven-hour session of Smite, not an ounce of input lag, delay, interference or anything of the like was experienced. The buttons worked beautifully and the movement response was instantaneous.

Adjusting the DPI on the mouse was simple enough to the point that you can change the sensitivity without leaving a current game. Just clicking a button on the mouse either lowered or raised it, and players can check it right on the device itself by way of a light bar.

The buttons are all easily accessible despite being small. The size really didn’t matter much in terms of affecting gameplay though someone with large hands may have an issue.

The only other issue is the fact that the mouse is powered by two, non-rechargeable, AA batteries. Though with the battery life being as strong as it is, it’s doesn’t pose much of a problem. Still, some may take issue with this.

Conclusion:

The Logitech G602 Wireless Gaming Mouse is one of the best wireless devices I’ve used and reviewed. When you can release a wireless product designed for quick response and not have any issues with input delay or interference whatsoever, then you’ve done something right as a company.

With a reasonable price of only $79.99 and the performance that it on par with a lot of the higher-end wired mice, the Logitech G602 is definitely a product worth checking out.
