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

Works better than some of the expensive ones that I’ve purchased. This is a time-tested reliable mouse great for gaming

I still have an original mx518 that I still use. The pictures with the new and original one. The laser looks different and the newer version is 3.6 oz, 0.3 oz lighter than the original. Feels comfortable enough, got this for $20 on Black Friday from BB

I do not need a gaming quality mouse, but was looking for one that has good accuracy, isnt too expensive, and is a good size. I have long fingers and cheaper mice all seem to be smaller, my hand engulfs them. This is the slightly larger size I wanted, it works well, and the price was decent; so happy with it so far. My only gripe is the scroll wheel is noisy. It works fine, so Im sure Ill get used to it; and definitely not a reason to avoid the mouse, it just stands out to me when Im scrolling through something long.

The fit is great. The programmable buttons are fantastic. A great gaming mouse!

I have been using the MX518/G400 line for most of my life. Love how they dialed back the gamer design language on this newest model.

I bought an MX518 back in 2006 for my one of my first computer builds. It fit perfectly into my hand years ago. The button layout and placement felt second nature. This new version feels and contours to my hand the same as the one I bought back in 2006. That mouse lasted through 15 years of games, school work, and boredom. Hopefully, this new one lasts just as long, if not longer. The only difference I can find (aside from the design and higher accuracy) is the left and right click buttons are a little louder and stiffer than the old one. However, thats more than likely due to 15 years of wear and tear.

Sensor keeps randomly bugging out when playing games, doesnt work properly. First and last Logitech mouse Ill use for gaming.

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

This is it... the last mouse you will ever need. Once youre done playing with the 200,000 DPI nonsense with RBG glowly lights, you can settle on this timeless classic. Its solid hardware, solid switches, comfortable in your hand, and does everything you need all in one package. Ive owned a few dozen mice and at one time even collected them, this is the one.

I can’t come close to guessing how many mice I’ve used in 30+ years of computing. Up until 2007, I used whatever mouse came with the PC’s we had at home and work. By 2007, we needed (I wanted) a second PC. My wife and daughter were happy with their Dell desktop and HP laptop, so I built a desktop for me, choosing an Eclipse II lighted keyboard and MX 518 mouse. I loved that keyboard and mouse. I did some upgrades over the years, but in 2013 a surge fried the MB, and I did a complete rebuild. I continued to use the Eclipse keyboard, but the 518 was getting a bit hit & miss by then. I replaced the original 518 with a G400s, but that was a piece of junk and didn’t last long. I got my 518 out of storage, took it apart, cleaned it as best I could, and got a couple more years out of it. After a rebuild in late 2019, I retired my original 518. After being disappointed with an inexpensive Redragon mouse and a $60+ Corsair M65 mouse, whose left button didn’t last a year, I ordered a new MX 518. I wish Logitech had brought back the silver, dented look of the old one, but the shape has always been perfect mouse for my hand. As to the Eclipse II keyboard, I finally retired it after 11 years in favor of a Redragon K556 brown switch. No regrets. I love the K556 even more than the Eclipse.
