This early Black Friday deal makes the legendary Logitech G502 Lightspeed half price

Logitech's most popular gaming mouse line.

Early Black Friday deals are upon us, and Amazon has introduced some excellent reductions on a wide range of kit, including one of the most legendary and best-selling gaming mice of the last few years. Currently, you can grab the Logitech G502 Lightspeed for $75 from Amazon USA, which cuts its $150 retail price in half, and makes it quite the compelling deal.

The G502 Lightspeed has a relatively wide and heavy frame by modern standards, coming in at 114g, making it practically double the weight of some of the best ultralight gaming mice available. It may not be the best choice therefore for quick, multiplayer gameplay, and a choice more suited to slower-paced and single-player fare as well as general computer use like web browsing or content creation. That wider frame does also provide you with 11 programmable buttons (count 'em!) and a dual-mode scroll wheel that can glide seemingly forever or change to scrolling line-by-line with tactile feedback.

Internally, the G502 Lightspeed comes with the same lauded Hero sensor as the G502 Hero, with up to 25,600 DPI for accurate tracking even at extremely high sensitivity settings, as well reliable Lightspeed 2.4GHz wireless that offers practically zero latency. In addition, up to 60 hours of battery life also provides you with solid levels of endurance, giving you the chance to use the mouse for a working week and a half before you'll need to charge it back up again. You can even pick up a PowerPlay mousepad that will wirelessly charge your mouse, so you never have to plug it in, and there is of course the wired G502 Hero if you want the wired experience.

There are also a smattering of RGB lighting zones, with bright, vibrant results, and of course you can choose from different effects, select a single colour of your choice or disable it entirely depending on your preferences. Logitech's G Hub software also allows you to rebind each mouse button to macros, keyboard keys and common functions.

The G502 Lightspeed has been a favourite gaming mouse of mine for a few years, and for $75 on Amazon before Black Friday, it really is an absolute steal. If you're wanting to grab a true legend of the scene for an insane price, this is well worth a look.
