As a premium device, it’s no surprise the G502 Lightspeed is on the larger size, with dimensions that measure up as 12.12 s 7.52 x 4.11cm. However, that size doesn’t lead to a heavy device, with it only weighing in at 114g. It comes with 11 programmable buttons and a 16,000 dpi HERO sensor as standard.

The Naga Pro doesn’t change the look and feel of the previous model – the Naga Trinity – with dimensions that measure as 19.5 x 17.5 x 7.1 cm. It comes with a 20,000 dpi optical sensor for cutting-edge accuracy and precision and Razer’s own optical mouse switches, making the Naga Pro ideal for MMOs, MOBAs and FPS/battle royale games.

LOGITECH G502 LIGHTSPEED VS RAZER NAGA PRO: DESIGN AND BUILD QUALITY

While some ‘green’ materials can often feel very flimsy or insubstantial, the PVC-free plastic Logitech has used for the G502 Lightspeed is surprisingly solid. It’s two main buttons feature a new tensioning system that makes it far more rewarding click, while the position of its remaining nine buttons is ergonomic enough to fit most gaming setups and play styles.

The Naga Pro is surprisingly svelte for a mouse at this price point, but that modest form factor utilises a smooth chassis with a textured quality on the side for extra grip. It also utilises PTFE on its mouse feet (the same material used to coat non-stick pans), delivering exceptional grip when you’re playing an FPS and need extra grip to avoid slipping.

The Naga Pro features Razer’s HyperSpeed Wireless technology, which delivers low latency, seamless frequency hopping and up to 100 hours of use out of a single full charge. It’s definitely up there with wired options when it comes to the strength of its signal. Some versions also come bundled with the magnetic Chroma dock.
