Logitech G402 Review [OLD but still POPULAR why?]

Hiya!

Thanks for the review! You did a good job of covering what potential buyers need to know.

 

Good to hear it is smaller than the 502. The 502 was a little too big for me (too long, hard to get my fingers to reach the left and right buttons with my claw grip).

Thank you i did my best so i am glad that u like it ^_^

Yes its smaller and less bulkier.

Its a good mouse if u are looking for an alternative to the G502.

The new rival 600 is also a good mouse but it has it quirks.

First its the use of overkill sensor marketed having 350IPS and dual sensor to reduce the LOD to 0.5mm which is unecessary and stupid as it will gives u no benefit in real life.

Second those gimmicks adds extra cost to the mouse so its a bit overpriced around 70-80USD.

In other word u are paying more for nothing for performance.

nice detailed review from someone who actually used the mouse more than the usual week or two review period of top reviewer.

I have some question since I'm looking at this mouse right now.

- you mentioned that the sensor in that one is a bit lacking in terms of tracking but for someone like me who use relatively high (I'd say mid) sensitivity settings not extremely low as other pros will I notice a different?

-I'm also looking at the g403 (arguably better sensor) wired but I like the look and the price of the g402 so what do you think?

First of all..Thank you ^_^

 

The sensor is great..not the most accurate sensor ever, Though you probably wont be able to notice its flaws.

The only issue with the sensor is that its a bit inconsistent in slow movement. But you have to move it very very slow like you didnt even look like you're moving your mouse (but u did).

Also the sensor will spin out if you move it at around idk like more than 5M/s and a tilt slam technique meaning slamming your mouse sideways on the mousepad. Not a big issue if you didn't do those two.

 

Well the G403 shape/shell are loved by many and the sensor is better but if you are a casual gamer i don't think you will be able to notice the differences in performance.

Thanks for your fast reply really appreciate it, and yes I'm a casual gamer not really looking for the most fancy sensors however I'm an editor so settings macro keys on the extra buttons on the g402 will benefit me more.

Thanks again for making up my mind.

Well its just a coincidence, I am online so..

 

If you love the shape and need more button you could go with the G602..its a wireless version of G402 with more button and slightly inferior sensor. It uses AM010 but without Gyro and accelerometer. But it should be fine for you.

It might be popular because it's the mouse you are shown when you walk into a retail store and ask for a gaming mouse. At least that's how it is over here.
