Our Verdict

Anker Gaming Mouse

Logitech G502 LIGHTSPEED

The Logitech G502 LIGHTSPEED and the Anker Gaming Mouse are good FPS gaming mice, but the Logitech is a bit more versatile overall. The Logitech is a wireless mouse that's much bigger and wider, with an ergonomic design and a thumb rest. It has a lot more programmable inputs, a lower click latency, and a better sensor. On the other hand, the Anker is a wired-only mouse that's much smaller and lighter.
