Our Verdict
Logitech G502 HERO
ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless
The Logitech G502 HERO is a good wired gaming mouse, while the ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless is a great wireless gaming mouse. If you like heavy mice, the Logitech is heavier and comes with extra weights to let you customize the weight distribution. Also, it has a thumb rest, more programmable buttons, and its scroll wheel has a free-scrolling mode, which is great if you want to use the mouse for office tasks. On the other hand, the ASUS is much lighter, and you can use it wirelessly via Bluetooth or its USB receiver. Its charging cable is better quality and more flexible than the Logitech's cable, and its mouse feet are also better. While the Logitech has slightly lower click latency, the difference won't be noticeable by most people.
