    12000 dpi just seems like epeen waving to me. My RAT 7 has 6400 which is too fast on a lot of things (i.e. anything other than PvP FPS games). For something like deus ex it needs turning down to 2000dpi to be playable.

    I run at 1200 dpi or less... that 12000 dpi is silly. I do like the weights though, like my g9x. The extra buttons would be nice too.

    I'm so frustrated and disappointed in Logitech this generation; all I want the classic shape (G5, G400) with solid build, a nice textures, quality buttons and an upgraded scroll wheel.

    Couldn't be less interested in the G Series; they look cheap, gimmicky and ugly.

    It looks cools. honestly this is the first logitech gaming mouse that caught my attention.
    What I don't understand is why is Logitech claiming that it's the first of its kind. Seems to me it shares common feature like other gaming mouse

    With 4k resolutions, would 12000 dpi not be fine for gaming ? I think they are simply looking forward with that dpi.

    Re: News - Logitech G502 Proteus Core tunable 12,000 dpi gaming mouse

    My mouse already has a MASSIVE 8500dpi... I don't think I've ever gone higher than 3000... ever!!
    Nice looking mouse, but needs more buttons.

    I don't really get the whole DPI thing, anyway. I game in 1080p, have mine set around 2200, with some profiles slightly either side of that, set the refresh rate/polling rate/report rate/whatever to max and just play like that. Works as well as it can for a cack-handed old fogey like me!!

    Re: News - Logitech G502 Proteus Core tunable 12,000 dpi gaming mouse

    At this point I think that there is really not much you can do to improve mice, so I guess dpi is the one thing that is quantifiable and therefore marketable. I wonder if there is a market for ultra high end custom gaming mouse (think of those custom IEM). I am thinking something where you send a mould of your hand and they custom build one to your hand shape. After all, I think that it is impossible to have one size that optimally fits all, yet that is what manufacturers are doing. At this point, I think that ergonomic is king, and more tangible benefit than doubling dpi, or making it track on mud.

    Re: News - Logitech G502 Proteus Core tunable 12,000 dpi gaming mouse

    Ever since I've bought my first real mouse, the MX310, I've stuck to 800DPI. I don't see why some people have to go much higher than that (8k? 12k???), but as someone mentioned here it might have something to do with the 4k resolutions coming out. Either way, I wish I had just stockpiled a few MX518s, though I don't have anything negative to say about the G500s I'm using

    I agree with you in regards to the design. Still have my G5 and 2 G500's. Not a fan of the newer styles.

    The G700s is the bestest mouse I have ever used, ever, ever, ever... and yet even I think the £90-odd price tag is a bit insane. I love the many buttons, easy customisable stuff, wirelessness, etc and the build quality is definitely solid.
    But still...
