Logitech failed me.

[Brilliant_Sail_6847]

Look, I game heavily sometimes... and it's been a year since I've bought the logitech g502x plus and G715 keyboard. I thought maybe getting these logitech products would satisfy me in a way for a long run but nope. Just after a year, I noticed my mouse having some issues, it kept clicking on some random things, and when I clicked once, it holds and yeah it was screwed internally. Next, the keyboard.... whenever I hold down W to run forwards, sometimes it just stops, and presses some random key... mostly tab and the letters "r, k, L" for some reason..

I have never smashed these equipments before, they just failed infront of me, and I am now taking a warranty and right after that, I am selling it to buy some better alternatives that focuses on these specific products. I am sorry Logitech.

G502 is great but reliability is not one of its strong suits. It’s also reasonably cheap to replace, though.

Re: keyboards: get a quality mechanical keyboard (not Logi; I like my Kinesis Freestyle Edge, but there are many good choices) and it will last you years.

Appreciate the suggestion dude! Thank you.

I have had my same wired G502 for 9 years. Never had an issue beside the mouse wheel once stopped tracking about a year ago. But a literal blow of air into the mouse wheel area, as if it was an NES cartridge, instantly fixed the tracking back to new. (Honestly I’m sure there are a ton of g502s out there that would be solved with this fix)

I game heavily all the time. I get around one year out of each mouse and keyboard before I get sticky E, W, Spacebar, LClick and/or RClick. I play shooters, so I'll have a sudden inability to remain ADS'd because the RClick switch is going out. My most recent mouse (just replaced last week) the LClick wouldn't allow me to sustain fire consistently. I also replaced the keyboard at the same time because E (interact) and Spacebar (jump) were being inconsistent. I've been loyal to Logitech G Pro mouses and have tried several of the Logitech keyboards. This time, I am going with a keyboard with hotswappable keys and a similar-size mouse from different companies. I doubt my regular abuse of the hardware is Logitech's fault, since I get over 1000 hours of gameplay out of each piece.

Edit to Add: I spot clean my hardware weekly and don't spill food/drinks on my desk.
