    very good price. was going to buy one this weekend from msy for $95. thanks!

      Do yourself a favour and check out the G900… if your in the market and open to spending twice'ish the amount it is a mouse that I can hands down call the best mouse I have ever used (past mouses - g402, g502, mumba, deathadder, g9x). Having been a high level competitive FPS player I(recently) couldn't go past the g402 previously (bit lighter and less cluttered then the 502), but do yourself a favour and try it if possible!!

      • RI4V4N on 04/05/2016 - 23:02

        I actually had a g900 (Currently have this and a g402 Hyperion fury (one on my laptop), they're both very different mice. I'm not sure if I actually liked the g900 more than either of these personally, its more a shape thing than anything else and i guess it depends on ur hand size.

      • pikatech on 06/05/2016 - 00:02

        Just had a quick look and it does look really impressive. It also looks quite new so I doubt there will be anything close to a sale for the g900. May I know where you bought yours from?
        My basic mouse just died and considering investing into either this or the g900 hmm

        • giBzoR on 06/05/2016 - 19:19

          Purchased mine from Computer Alliance in Brisbane, was the only place in Queensland I could get my hands on one at the time (launch week) as I wasn't that excited and didn't pre order, if only I had of known! I would start with the g402 to be honest, its hard to explain why but to put it basically you won't appreciate the g900 as much (unless you really want the wireless!) without having come from an A grade gaming mouse already.

        • pikatech on 06/05/2016 - 21:57

          @giBzoR:

          Ah yeah I get what you mean. Thanks for the recommendation for g402, how about the g502? Do you think that's an okay start as well?

          @pikatech: Not for the difference in price atm mate, I have mentioned but if your in the $100 region (you evidently don't have a budget) double the coin and get a g900 hands down. As were all bargain hunters here… at half the price of the g502 I wouldn't even consider it, get the g402 :) hope that helps.

        • pikatech on 08/05/2016 - 20:40

        IMHO Logitech G5 was the best mouse I ever had, lasted 8 years and still going, though cable was getting frayed so I bought a G402… 6 months later with the G402 and the scroll wheel button no longer recognizes clicks…

        Went back to G5 and just covered the frayed cable with some heat sink =/

    • billy77 on 04/05/2016 - 20:12

      Long time Logitech fan. Not a serious player, but need and appreciate a good mouse.
      Got tired of wired mouse. Moved from G500s to Master MX. Bit heavy and complicated with not very good connection. Saw G900 released. Got one 3 days ago from JBHiFi. The best mouse I have tried so far.

    • achaldo on 04/05/2016 - 23:03
      +1

      The core apparently had an issue with the teflon pads on the bottom coming loose, so much so that Logitech sent out free pads to people who were affected by the issue.

      I assume that problem would've been rectified on the spectrum.

      Other than that (and the rgb) they're identical.

        While yelling "THIS IS SOOOO UGLY" is not particularly constructive, completely discounting any negative opinions just because "so many people love it" is also a bit shit.

          @deanylev:

          Funny how "to me this is so ugly" became "this is so ugly" with no context. Not mention that I then conceded that if it worked well it may still be worthile even though I don't like it.

          There was nothing fair about the point at all. If there was a fair point to be made I would not need to be taken out of context.

          Sorry I disparraged your precious mouse. Did your enjoyment of trolling make up for it? This place is nuts sometimes.

          @syousef: Whether you preface your opinion with "to me" or not, the statement is equally useless to everyone here. Looks are exceedingly objective. There is a photo on this post that everyone visiting can form their own opinion from, pretty much instantly - at least well before they get down to your caps lock exclamation.

          The tone is the issue, I think. If you'd gone with the significantly less abrasive (and less capitalised) "While I'm not a fan of its looks…" there wouldn't have been a problem. Just a bit o' general internet (life) advice :)

          @johnno07:

          I'm not a politician and am not into politics. I gave my opinion. I wasn't rude about it. I didn't say anyone who likes this mouse is an idiot. I didn't downvote the deal. I didn't even put down anyone else's comment. I was very colourful and expressive about describing for my dislike of the styling of this item. That's all.

          My point of view was most certainly misrepresented. But you have more of a problem with my "tone" than other people doing so. I prefer honest direct dealings to politically correct but passively aggressive nonsense, which is rife in modern society.

          As for whether my opinion was useful, if that was the criteria for commenting here, one in ten comments or less would pass.

        • johnno07 on 05/05/2016 - 17:29

          @syousef: I'm telling you that your tone, whether you are a politician or not, is why your comment has 15 negative votes. You can be honest and direct without being abrasive. You were abrasive. As long as you're not directly offensive, there is nothing stopping you from posting anything you bloody well please. Comment away! Just don't be surprised and offended if you get pulled up on it.

          @johnno07:

          It's 16 now. I hope I wasn't too abrasive in letting you know.

          On Ozbargain people downvote anything they don't like regardless of tone. People like this mouse and don't like people criticizing it. End of story. This isn't being "pulled up" on anything. This is trial by popularity.

          And once they take offence, they often then downvote anything else you post. I can't prove this of course because negative votes are anonymous. It's a fantastic tool for the trolls.

        • johnno07 on 06/05/2016 - 12:41

          @syousef: Look, man. It's pretty clear to me that you haven't been down-voted just for disagreeing with the majority, but rather the way you disagreed with the majority. If you can't see that, then that's fine. Happy to leave this argument where it is. Have a good one :)

      • illumination on 04/05/2016 - 19:34

  • johnno07 on 04/05/2016 - 19:19
    +4

    I'm aware that this recommendation is 2-3 times the price. Just putting it here in case people are interested.

    If I was getting a new mouse right now, it would likely be the new G900 Chaos Spectrum. I personally hate wired mice - I can't deal with the cord. I have a small hissy fit every time I feel any sort of wire-related resistance. Obviously, traditionally there has been a latency sacrifice by going wireless, however the G900 has better tracking/latency/signal reception than a lot of very decent wired mice. It can also be used wired. You do pay for it though - can be had for around the $200 mark.

    • giBzoR on 04/05/2016 - 19:26
      +1

      Just replied to top comment saying exactly that!! I love mine(and can compare to the mouse in question)! Charge twice a week with SOLID use.

      • TheContact on 04/05/2016 - 19:37

        It still is an expensive mother of a mouse though..

        May I ask how does the grip/feel on the G900 compare to the G502 or G402? Which would be the most similar to the G900?

        I have the G900 at home and am wanting to replace my G700s at work as I'm trying to ween myself off the high arch, and I don't want to blow another $200 for a work mouse hehe.

        • giBzoR on 04/05/2016 - 20:55
          +1

          Go the g402, its a slightly lower arch and RH mouse, but it does feel like it locks the hand in slightly better and for $47 atm can't complain. The g502 is similar to the g402 but with more buttons and a slightly larger feel, has more buttons for productivity so take that for what it is but at nearly twice the price wouldn't be a consideration for me personally.

      • ProspectiveDarkness on 04/05/2016 - 20:15

        Is the scroll wheel the free-spinning Hyperscroll one, or just regular? Having a hard time finding the answer with google

        • TheContact on 04/05/2016 - 20:28

          Hyperscroll. A regular button selector one, not the auto ratcheting one like on the MX Master though. It's actually on the product page on Logitechs site :P

      • johnno07 on 04/05/2016 - 22:35

        4 minutes apart! Well you know what they say about great minds… ;)

        The G602 is my current daily driver. I do like that it takes 2xAAs that last for months. I'm not a fan of the side buttons though - too small and pokey - so I never use them, unless they get pressed accidentally. Not a hyper-competitive gamer, so I don't think I can justify the upgrade to the G900… unless you can persuade me haha.

        EDIT: Bugger it - I persuaded myself. Just bought it for $190 off eBay.

      You're right, you can basically not even compare them.

  • Neurological Orgasm on 04/05/2016 - 19:37

    For anybody interested in buying this mouse.

    My experience with CSGO and as a daily driver.

    The scroll wheel is really loud and unpleasant with a forceful tactile feel/bump.

    The Sniper Button or the button just under where you place your thumb can get annoying and you may need to adjust your thumb positioning.

    Other than that the mouse is amazing. It's perfect for somebody who alternates between claw grip and palm grip.

    Great features and comfort.

    • vash12 on 18/05/2016 - 12:29

      The g502 is a bit expensive for me I think.

    It's a great mouse. Coming off the MX518 I'd probably prefer a bit more palm-grip style (curved front end), but it lets you move around pretty easily.

    • R3XNebular on 04/05/2016 - 21:16

      I currently have the MX518 and love the MX518 but I'm due for an upgrade. Is it an improvement in comfort-ability?

      • ozbjunkie on 04/05/2016 - 21:36

        as owner of both - Yes, the big thing is that the MX518 forces the third finger onto the top of the mouse, when its really needed at the side.

        Many youtube reviews indicate improved hand feel for 502 from 518, and I agree. Also upgrade to poll rate and dpi.

        Small hands here (coughs)

        • R3XNebular on 04/05/2016 - 21:47

          Had to count my fingers.. you mean the third finger as in the right click button for FPS? or you mean the forth finger should be on the side. Unless everyone has been using their fourth finger to right click for FPS and I've been doing it wrong all this time by using my third finger…

        • ozbjunkie on 04/05/2016 - 21:50

          @R3XNebular:

          i was counting upwards from 1 from the pointer lol.

          so ring finger was always an issue for me on mx518 - lateral control suffered as pushing to the left (with my right hand) was controlled by pinky finger only.

          I guess this misunderstanding shows why its so important to specify the units for your digits. lol?

      • Kramo on 04/05/2016 - 23:03

        Only had a few days with it:
        I got used to having my full hand resting on the 518 (three fingers on top), and the mouse-wheel of the G502 is just a bit too big for that resting to be quite as comfortable. Still very comfortable, just moreso if I only keep two fingers on top.
        I also found I had to disable a few of the buttons including:
        1 - side-scrolling on the mouse wheel. Too easy to activate, and had random effects in a lot of applications.
        2 - sensitivity up/down. I found I was hitting them too frequently.
        3 - profile changer. Doesn't serve a purpose for me.
        Still appears to be a great mouse. I may just be a bit nostalgic.

  • johnnyle on 05/05/2016 - 02:08

    Thanks for a great deal. I bought one tonight and loving it straight away. really fit my hand and feel very comfortable.

    Just to note, I use the middle mouse button to click thousands of times a day with 3D work related things. It's terrible. The amount of pressure required will make anyone get pain in their finger using it.

      Bind the left/right middle clicks to just be normal middle click. Much easier to press.

        Smartest thing I've heard all week. Good call it does cut the amount of pressure required by more than half!

        Anyway, I got it in-store today at $71.20, so it's still available!

    I was able to get it in store, so looks like its just the webpage that has been removed.

    • white-night on 05/05/2016 - 14:51

      Which store? I called them up earlier and it was $89 and not $71.20.

      • Waffle Cat on 05/05/2016 - 17:08

        I'ts AUD 71.20 after discount.

    Guys, just got mine from JB HiFi for AUD 71.20. Call the store to check first. If they have it, it'll go for the AUD 71.20. They just took it off their website in case too many people order them and they don't have the stock to deliver.

    Is there any in Melbourne or Sydney close to prestons or Liverpool

    As a long time user of the G502, paint the scroll wheel and get ready for the dirt in the trianglely textures, other than that it's a great mouse! but really… paint the scroll wheel

    • TheContact on 05/05/2016 - 22:19

      Or replace it with the G700/s wheel assembly. Also makes it lighter as a bonus :p
