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

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.

Very dependable mouse used same model over six years for hard gaming

Ive been using an MX518 gaming mouse for around 15 years and have loved it. I had to replace it once during that interval but was able to get the same exact model. I recently bought another one for a second computer thinking that it would be the same as the old model other than some minor cosmetic changes. As soon as I got the mouse I could tell that it was a cheap knockoff of the old model. The old model feels nice and solid in your hand, whereas the new one feels like plastic garbage. The new one also makes a slight rattling noise when you pick it up and place it down, whereas the old one did not. I dont necessarily have any complaints about the function or performance of the new model, but the feel is terrible by comparison.

Accurate, the weight and feel are perfect, no friggin RGB and annoying software (looking at you corsair...). Very good mouse!

Best mouse I have ever used. I love the accuracy and the way the mouse fits in my hand comfortably for gaming. Play all types of games from FPS to games like WoW. This is an older style and is harder to find. I have bought 4 of these for backups just in case something ever happens. The one I am using has been in place for over 8 years and chewed on by my cats. Still works great. Would highly recommend.

First of all, the mouse was shipped to me in the US in all Spanish packaging (not a product of the US) with Spanish instructions, etc. The box has a different serial number on it than the one on the bottom of the mouse, and neither one of them are accepted by the Logitech website when trying to register the mouse for warranty. This is NOT a legitimate product.

Pro: Nostalgia. Con: Unlike its original debut, MX518 is no longer a winner in ergonomic since all the mice ranging from $10 to $100 follow similar design. The new MX518 is true to its original design where scrolling wheel only has the clicky mode. I really wanted the switch between clicky and smooth/silent mode on the wheel cause the scrolling on this MX518 makes such loud noise. Overall impression: I would probably go back to a later version of logitech mouse or even a $20 cheap brand one, for the added functionalities. Unless you are an older generation of gamer looking for that old feeling, this mouse is not the best choice for the price.

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

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

The mouse feels comfortable in your hands. I like the ability to easily assign the extra buttons. Would definitely recommend!!
