This is why I bought the Logitech G502 X mouse for my Linux desktop instead of the MX Master 3S

I wanted to move off the Redragon Mammoth mouse, mainly because I started to want a free-scrolling mode scroll wheel. I often read long posts, or I am editing long webpages, and find myself having to hit the scroll wheel 5 or 10 times to scroll up or down. With a free spinning wheel, it is a single flick, and it goes up or down the page.

It is a longish post, so I have produced it in full as a blog post at the link below.

I used to have an earlier version of this, then I switched to the mx master, but after a few years that stopped working and my trusty 502 was lost and I was in a need of a mouse fast so I went for the razer deathadder as that's what they had in the store. That was certainly a step down from both the 502 and mx master, I've been missing the continues scrolling of the 502 and a side scroller of the mx master for years now so I think it's about time I do something about it!

My partner has been asking me what I want for my birthday and I've been telling her I don't want anything, but now I've told her I want this mouse 😂 I wish it had the side scroller, that would've made it perfect for my use.

Thanks for the reminder!

@NorVegan a "useful" gift!! Yes the 502 X does have the side click on the scroll wheel, but it is not quite the same as the actual side scroll that the MX Master has.
