Logitech G MX518 Gaming Mouse Hero 25K Sensor, 25,600 DPI, ARM-Processor, 8 Programmable Buttons - Black/Grey

I have been using a version of this mouse almost as long as I can remember. Its the best.

what can i say its a 518

I use this primarily on my work Mac which I use to do software development. Ive had the old generation model for over 10 years and its been great. I liked that the auxiliary button below the sensitivity selector buttons could be used as a shortcut on the Mac to go into the window switcher mode. In the latest generation, theyve changed that button to reset the sensitivity to default and it no longer works as Mouse Button 6 in the keyboard shortcuts selection menu. I tried changing the settings in Logitechs GHub software but couldnt figure out if it was possible and after 10 minutes gave up after failing to discover if it was possible to customize a profile with button remappings to make this mouse equivalent to the old generation. Overall, it felt like they added more ((confusing) software / profiles) but made the defaults less useful (for me anyways). Im going to keep this mouse since the Razr mouse I bought before this scroll wheel broke after 4 months and this ones scroll wheel works for now.

I go through so many mouses.. I have so many and higher end one including Logitech Hero.. By far this is the best fit for my hand and gaming..

Ive been re-buying this mouse for over 15 years. Ive tried my fair share of different and more complicated mice, always going back to this one.

The mouse is fine, but why did they have to make the buttons high gloss? It means my fingers constantly stick to the surface and it feels terrible. The G502 and G602 are much more enjoyable to use, plus I miss the thumb rest on those mice which is sorely missing on the MX518. Overall this mouse is very meh.

I had used a MX 518 as my primary mouse for many years. It finally broke and I was disappointed to find it was no longer made. I tried a few others but was never happy with them. I was skeptical when this was reissued. I figured it was just a cheaper knock off. It does seem to have been cost reduced some, and it is cheaper then the original. But I like it. It works well and it is fast. I had to slow it down. If you were a fan of the original, you will find this a acceptable replacement. Update: I have noticed there has been a large price increase for this mouse. At the current price it’s is much less of a deal. If I was in the market, I would still buy it, but be unhappy with the price.

i bought it because the dog of my friend made a vase fall on my original MX 518 . i bought a G Pro but i liked my original MX 518 better ( better grip and overall use).So that is why i bought this remake.It is a very good mouse but i like the original MX518 more.This remake feels different( read for me less good). Nevertheless in my opinion one of the best mice you can buy nowadays

I just wanted to preface this by saying Ive been using Logitech mice most of my life, starting with multiple MX510 and an MX518. I was excited to hear that they relaunched the MX518 and ordered it immediately upon finding out. I was pretty disappointed to say the least when I actually started using it. It had the familiar grip and weight but the sensor is just straight awful. I can barely lift the mouse off the mousepad without the cursor going haywire. My 12 year old MX510 is still way more accurate than whatever this is. Feels like they just repackaged a garbage mouse as the MX518 in name only. Disappointed.

I bought this specific mouse two years ago at Best Buy and have had its predecessor for probably a decade to be honest... They both have been so good that I just had to buy another one for my office at work. No mouse fits better in my hand and just works like how you would want a mouse to work. The simple adjustable DPI buttons save me so much time and just simply work. If you havent already tried this mouse, do it asap!
