Better performance than ever before
In continuing the legacy of delivering unrivalled gaming performance, the G502 X has been redesigned from the G502 form and updated with new gaming technologies, including the introduction of LIGHTFORCE hybrid optical-mechanical switches.
Exclusive to Logitech G, all G502 X models come with the all-new LIGHTFORCE hybrid optical-mechanical switches for incredible speed and reliability, as well as precise actuation with a crisp response.
So what is LIGHTFORCE?
The answer: A revolutionary microswitch technology that combines the benefits of optical switches, which include fast speed, performance, and good reliability, all with the important actuation feel of mechanical switches that gamers love.
Using galvanic contact parts within the switch that operate just like mechanical switches, LIGHTFORCE maintains that crisp feeling, resulting in optical and mechanical triggers engineered in unison and delivering the ultimate gaming performance.
LIGHTFORCE hybrid switches provide reliable, ultra-low latency optical actuation combined with the best attributes of crisp, tactile mechanical clicks.
The same beloved design, but upgraded
The G502 X touts a whole new redesign, with changes such as:
- Reversible and removable DPI-shift button to accommodate a wide variety of hand sizes and grip styles
- Redesigned scroll wheel with higher stability and reduced weight, all while retaining the G502’s iconic dual hyper-fast infinite scroll and precise ratchet modes
- USB-C charging for wireless versions,
- Thin-wall exoskeleton for weight reduction and maximum rigidity
It also comes equipped with the HERO 25K high-precision gaming sensor, offering a 1-1 ratio accuracy at sub-micron levels and zero smoothing, filtering or acceleration.
In terms of activity and performance without the wire, when combined with LIGHTFORCE, these features have response times 68% faster than the previous generation.
The LIGHTSPEED wireless protocol update also allows gamers to connect two LIGHTSPEED devices to one receiver using the Device Pairing Tool in G HUB. Players can choose to operate G502 X with the same receiver as their Logitech G915, G915 TKL, or G715 gaming keyboards.
Additionally, the G502 X line is compatible with Logitech G POWERPLAY wireless charging mats for unlimited battery life without wires.
And for all the aesthetic chasers out there, the G502 X PLUS model comes with LIGHTSYNC RGB with the following features:
- Flowing 8-LED lighting that is customizable and adapts as the user plays
- Startup and power-down effects
- Battery optimization through active play detection
So whatcha waiting for? Elevate your gaming experience with the Logitech G502 X line, all available in black and white colourways.
