Our Verdict

Logitech G502 LIGHTSPEED

ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless

The Logitech G502 LIGHTSPEED and the ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless are both wireless gaming mice. If you prefer heavy mice, the Logitech is the best choice since it weighs more and comes with extra weights. Also, it has a thumb rest, an extra side button, and many more programmable inputs. Also, its scroll wheel has L/R tilt buttons and a free-scrolling mode. It also has slightly lower click latency. On the other hand, the ASUS has Bluetooth support, smoother-gliding mouse feet, and a better charging cable.
