About this deal

Side buttons are better than in old MX 518, but their position is not perfect and some other mice have them more upward which seems to be better solution. Today, we have millions of users a month from around the world, and assess more than 1,000 products a year. I put the MX518 Legendary through its paces in a handful of first person shooters to test its accuracy in the heat of battle. The only thing which you can do, on software side, is to deactivate actions from the mouse wheel so that it won't bother you anymore (I believe this can be done using AutoHotkey, more details on that if this solution interests you). Although every single review online stated that mouse tracks from height of 2 DVDs, in my case, it doesn’t.

Even the Logitech G logo, which stands out in burnished silver on the top of the mouse, is attractive and stylish rather than garish (the norm for an unfortunate number of gaming peripherals).To opt out of certain ads provided by Google you can use any of the methods set forth here or using the Google Analytics opt out browser add-on here. Of course when I say that these buttons fall directly under your thumb, I mean that they fall directly under my thumb – if Benny were using this mouse it would be a different matter altogether. However, for me, a wireless mouse is just not good enough for gaming – I can always feel a slight lag when playing with a wireless mouse, and once again, this could be the difference between living and dying; or more importantly, gloating or sulking. The left and right buttons blend seamlessly with the palm rest in a single glossy shell, and the rubber finish on the mouse wheel is smooth rather than grooved, which definitely feels old school. All of those had some slight issues but total package was awesome and their specific shape would often ruin people for other mice (once you use it long enough).

I would have liked to have seen Logitech push the envelope a bit more by adding their LIGHTSPEED Wireless tech, but fans of the original will surely be happy to find this mouse feels so close to the original and offers improved switches and Logitech’s best optical sensor.I mapped crouch and prone to the side buttons and grenades and melee to the DPI selectors, which let me keep my fingers on the movement buttons and made me more mobile. It's a pleasant mouse to use and fits the hand well, though it's slightly too slender for users with larger hands.

So, after 10 years, my favorite mouse ever has finally died; got cracked in half when a big rock fell on the desk (geologist, this happens sometimes, it's annoying). With this in game adjustment, you can work out what the best sensitivity is for each weapon in your arsenal, giving you that extra edge. If you're looking to improve your performance in the most demanding twitch shooters, or are generally in the market for a better pointer, the MX518 is one to pounce on.

The MX518 is one of the best gaming mice I've used and a worthy successor to one of the few PC peripherals I feel comfortable referring to as 'legendary. I haven’t touched on aesthetics yet, but if you are concerned with how good your mouse looks the MX518 is unlikely to disappoint.
