The only small problem I had is that the “page forward” button was positioned a little bit too far forward, but other than that I had no major problems. The Prodigy feels better built, is better suited for small hands, and has a lower lift-off distance. Considering the numbers in which original models are sold, and that people are usually nostalgic Logitech decided to modernize hardware of MX518 and rerelease it as MX518 G Legendary. I do own a G400 (the older version with the same sesnor as G400S), and for FPS use, the sensor wasn't cutting it for me after some 2-3 years.

Also, if you're using the magnetic connector, insert the microUSB side before mounting the bottom PCB, it's a lot easier. Place all the components into the G518 baseplate, securing them with the McMaster screws into the inserts. This revamped version brings the flawless Hero 16000 CPI sensor, slightly lower weight and better, thinner cable.Polling rate is by default 1000 Hz but it can be adjusted to any of the following: 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz and 1000 Hz. Not only do I have small hands as I already mentioned, but I also use a mouse very differently to most people.

When you come to hold the MX518 though, you realise that the indentations are an optical illusion and the mouse surface is smooth. This was obviously due to the face that I could move my crosshair with greater sensitivity and ultimately grab more of those kudos enhancing headshots. The included SetPoint software, exclusive to Gaming-Grade mice, is ahead of its time, letting you choose between 5 custom level sensitivity settings, so that you get the right feel and movement. G Hub not only works for mouses but if you have any other Logitech products like headsets or speakers, it can also tap into those.Well, today the issue occured also in Windows once, and I had to reboot the system - the replacement mouse did not “fix” the issue, as works with linux. I’m sorry if those figures are incorrect, to weigh the mice I used a baking scale that is at least 40 years old since nothing better was available). honestly, I really like the G400s, if you can get ahold of one of those, it'd be a straight upgrade from your MX518 in every way.
