Logitech is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its G502 gaming mouse with a limited-edition aluminum version. The G502 X Plus AL Edition has the same functionality as the standard wireless G502 X mouse, plus an aluminum chassis with laser-etched markings, including a serial number from 1 to 502.

Sorry to put my high school chem lab assistant hat on, but that L in “AL Edition” should really be lowercase — though I speculate Logitech wanted to avoid people confusing Al with AI, as in artificial intelligence.

In the 10 years since it launched, the G502 has been a mainstay of Logitech’s gaming lineup. The original was a wired mouse, a version of which you can still buy new today for around $50. In 2019, the G502 X made the jump to wireless with Logitech’s Lightspeed dongle, relegating the original to the “still great on a budget” option. The $160 G502 X Plus, which the limited-edition mouse is based on, features a 25K DPI sensor, more RGB lighting, and wireless charging with Logitech’s Powerplay mousepad.

Logitech isn’t selling the G502 X Plus AL Edition. Instead, the company says the aluminum mouse “can only be awarded, earned, or gifted from Logitech G or our partners to community members across the globe.” The company gave away 10 of the mice already on the Logitech G account on X; if you want to nab one, it’s probably worth paying attention to the brand’s social media pages.

This is the kind of “forever mouse” I could get into.
