Is this really the quality of a “premium” Logitech mouse?
I had a Logitech G400 for around 10 years. It finally started dying in 2023, and honestly I couldn't complain. Ten years from a mouse is great.
That's basically why I stayed with Logitech and bought a G Pro X Superlight. I paid around $116 for it, which felt like a lot for a mouse, but I figured I was paying for something that would last me for years.
About a year later the scroll wheel started doing the classic reverse-scroll thing. Scroll down and every now and then it registers a tick up. Scroll up and sometimes it ticks down.
I sent it in under warranty in 2024 and it was repaired.
Now, a little over two years later, the exact same problem is back.
I contacted both the retailer and Logitech support, but since the mouse is out of warranty they won't do anything about it. Fair enough, the warranty is over. That's not really my issue.
What bothers me is the quality.
My old G400 lasted around 10 years. The much more expensive Superlight developed a hardware problem after about a year, got repaired, and then developed the same problem again.
The skates are also heavily worn and the logo has rubbed off quite a bit too. I wouldn't care much about either of those things on their own, but combined with the scroll wheel failing twice, this really doesn't feel like the premium quality I thought I was paying for.
I bought another Logitech mouse because the G400 made me trust the brand.
The Superlight pretty much killed that trust.
Probably my last Logitech product.
