I’ve had my G602 so long I have literally no memory of buying it. Definitely since before the 2017 discontinuing so it lasted 10 years atleast. A true hero, absolutely got my money’s worth from it.

I felt a bit sad just throwing it away after so much time so I thought I’d make a post about it. Maybe someone wants it for parts, but otherwise atleast I got to share my little sadness for a good quality product that’s served me very well.

It stopped staying turned on. Once batteries went in, it would turn on for a few seconds then stop working. Tried what fixes I could find online to no avail.

You can barely customize the buttons on these anymore so it was probably time.

A shame to learn there’s really no modern counterpart. Ended up replacing it with a razer basilisk V3 because it was the most similar in shape I could find.

    I went through 3 of these within the span of maybe 4 years. the middle click failed on all three of them and I’ve basically written off logitech for any peripherals since.

    I would love a well made mouse with the same shape/side button layout but the closest I’ve come is the glorious model I2.

      Middle click was gone for years, yeah.

      I don’t like scroll-wheel clicking luckily. Has never felt natural. Just set middle click to one of the thumb buttons and never thought about it again tbh. 😅

      Had the same issue, disassembled it, cleaned the contacts with some izopropilic alcohol and problem solved.
