The Logitech G602 is a good overall wireless mouse. It connects to its USB receiver to get a very low click latency and has great sensor performance. Fans of high sensitivity might be a bit disappointed by its maximum 2500 CPI, but most people should be fine. Its body and shape are very comfortable for a palm grip, especially due to its thumb rest. It has a lot of programmable buttons and it can be customized on both Windows and macOS, which is great.
Note 03/02/2020: Due to losing the receiver for the G602, we couldn't retest our unit. We got a new mouse in order to retest it. These results are for the new unit and might differ from the initial review.
