g503 hero

[INotPablo]

Hello, will the g503 hero still perform well in games in 2024?
Or is there a better mouse for a similar price (if there is a better one, please, it's not very difficult to find). Thank you

Just like any other HERO sensored mouse, it works just fine in video games.

There are better mice out there, though that doesn't mean the G502 is a bad mouse and there are folks like me who swear by it. The main issue with it is that it's very heavy by modern gaming mouse standards, and most people nowadays are trending towards lighter and lighter mice, and you can get some pretty light mice nowadays. The first example to come to mind is the Logitech G305 Lightspeed (G304 in some regions), especially with a AAA conversion, as it's a very light combo that's wireless with a good sensor and very cheap, though there's a dozen other options that work as well. 

 

As with any peripheral, a lot of it is personal preference. Just because one person online loves a heavy mouse doesn't mean you will, and just because the majority of people nowadays like superlight mice doesn't mean you will either. My advice is usually to head to somewhere like a Best Buy or Micro Center where they have a few of these mice on display, so you can try a few out and see what you find comfortable. Most mice over ~$40 have a perfect sensor on them, so you mostly need to worry about how comfortable the mouse is.

Hay mejores ratones, aunque eso no significa que el G502 sea un mal ratón y hay gente como yo que lo defiende. El principal problema es que es muy pesado para los estándares modernos de mouse para juegos, y la mayoría de las personas hoy en día tienden a usar ratones cada vez más livianos, y hoy en día puedes conseguir algunos ratones bastante livianos. El primer ejemplo que me viene a la mente es el Logitech G305 Lightspeed (G304 en algunas regiones), especialmente con conversión AAA, ya que es un combo muy liviano, inalámbrico, con un buen sensor y muy económico, aunque hay una docena de opciones más que funcionan como Bueno. 

 

Como ocurre con cualquier periférico, gran parte es preferencia personal. Sólo porque a una persona en línea le gusten los ratones pesados no significa que a usted también le gusten, y sólo porque a la mayoría de las personas hoy en día les gustan los ratones superligeros no significa que a usted tampoco. Por lo general, mi consejo es dirigirse a algún lugar como Best Buy o Micro Center donde tengan algunos de estos ratones en exhibición, para que pueda probar algunos y ver cuál le resulta cómodo. La mayoría de los ratones de más de ~$40 tienen un sensor perfecto, por lo que lo que más debes preocuparte es qué tan cómodo es el mouse. 

I think that in my country there is no such thing as trying a mouse (well, I really don't know if there is). I was looking at the g305 and I like that one better than the g503 in appearance.
If I can't find a way to test the mice, what could I do?

Pick one you think looks comfortable and hope for the best.
