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

I think the seller send me a counterfeit product, since the serial number on the box mismatch with the label on the mouse. Ive included photos to verify the problem. The mouse itself feel very uncomfortable to move around because the sensor sometimes random slow down, make this mouse lack of precision when playing fps shooters or fast pace game. The left click seems very stiff and not like my old g400s which has a much better click response, the button feels smoother with crisp. Maybe Im just unlucky enough to received a defective mouse.

Generally good. But the scroll wheel is not very accurate.

Does not need any installed software to work, it works right out of the box on Mac, Windows, and Linux (I use it for all three). No issues at all, though if you accidentally click the DPI buttons it can take a minute to get your cursor speed fixed again. Overally this is a really good mouse. I was skeptical because it seems they do not sell this model directly to the USA for some reason, so you have to buy it from a third party vendor who re-imports it from overseas (??? not sure how this works), but the mouse is legit. The only thing I do miss is the option for a free-spinning scroll wheel like in the MX500 series, but I have gotten by just fine so far without it.

Good mouse overall but it feels much more light cheap and plasticky than the original. The original had a bit of weight to it and felt solid. This feels light and hollow.

Great mouse but package had been broken into. think someone within the post was fishing for a phone or something.

The G on the mouse started losing its shiny color after a week and now the paint has peeled off around the G logo after a month of use. I was hoping this would be a replacement for my G502 but it seems I might have to try something other than logitech for my next mouse.

Was excited to upgrade my daily. Went to plug in and its literally DOA. Not recognized by windows or mac, not in device manager, etc. Tried all the software etc. Not recognized at ALL, not in device manager, no sound, nothing... Upon further investigation, as shown in another review, this is a counterfit. Box SN is covered up by random sticker. Original sticker shows a different serial number than on the mouse. Could not be more upset. BUYER BEWARE!!! Too good to be true.

Logitech G MX518 >>> pro: fits hand comfortably - (right hand only); buttons easy to reach, dpi increase/decrease easy to use and reach; glides well. cons: the center roller is terrible! feels very cheap and clunky. if rotating upwards or downwards in constant movement, its usable. stop for a few seconds and the moment you start to rotate again it feels stuck then jumps forward. becomes very annoying after only a few tries. I bought this mouse back in april 2022 and left it in box on a shelf for future use. today was future use after corsair katar pro began to show left clicky issues but in all honesty, id prefer to continue to use the corsair until new replacement arrives instead of new Logitech G MX518.

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.

Bought this out of concern that my 10+ year old mx518 would soon go out. Ergo is ALMOST exactly the same. Functions well and gets the job done; gaming, designing, FBing, etc...
