    Best mouse news! MX518 re-released!

    The best mouse that i have ever owned is being re-released! Logitech has announced the sale of an updated mx518. Same shape, wired and button placement just improved internals!

    https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/prod...ing-mouse.html

    Bit pricey at £60 but i will wait for it to drop.

    My current mx518 has lasted 14 years and is still going so a few extra months will be fine!

    It remains to be seen if it will stand the same test as the original.

    I'll stick with my G500.

    Onboard memory, 32bit processor.. this isn't the 518 I remember fondly.

    First reviews in:

    https://uk.ign.com/articles/2019/03/...g-mouse-review
    https://royalflushmagazine.com/gamin...-mouse-review/

    Externally identical to the original, 4g lighter but a better sensor and more robust omron switches, sounds like a winner to me.

    I'll bear this in mind when I'm looking for a new gaming mouse.

    Almost, but this re-release no longer has the bullet hole decals or whatever they were. The new one is just plain silver, which I think makes it look a bit more modern.

    Me too, man. It's now my office work mouse (as the missus bought me a Razer Naga Molten a few years back), and it works as well as the day I bought it. Classic mouse.
