The plastic protection adhesive on the 920 series of cameras used to be awful.
I’m still using the same G502 from like 10 years ago. lol
i wish i could buy another…
5 year old G604 for me! (I like extra buttons)
G Hub ist the single most terrible software I have ever used. I mean, it feels like a prank to use it.
I’ve always felt this way about HP
HP is a whole new level of being fucking dogshit
The open-source stuff is better.
Even their hardware is suffering.
I moved to a knockoff trackball (Nulea) that’s considerably better so far, simply because I went through two trackballs in three years.
Yeah, I used to have a pair of logitech G35 headphones and they were the best headphones I’ve ever had. When they eventually broke I replaced them with the newer G635 and they’re so much worse. I can’t even use the buttons on them because they don’t send any keycode at all before being initialized by the software which is windows only
I have been using the MX Ergo trackball for years and it is very reliable.
Was it the switches on the right/left mouse button? That’s usually my failure point.
Mouse wheel on one, power failure on the other. The second one my cats kept knocking to the floor so I can’t really blame Logitech on that one but with the Nulea one it really hit home that Logitech doesn’t refine their designs any longer.
With my G604, the rubber sheet on top of the mouse comes loose after 2 years or so. Started again yesterday. Once it starts to disintegrate, I’ll just leave Logitech behind for good.
I just want their MX keys and MX mouse to fucking switch computers together when you press the button on the keyboard. I don’t know why that’s so much to ask but apparently it is.
Worst part is that even though there’s a web app version it still requires windows to work
G Hub is so incredibly bloated that the load time is in the same tier as MS Teams, the new Steam, Windows, and Cities Skylines II. It’s also incredibly unreliable, working less often than other notoriously unreliable apps such as Outlook.
Jumping on the Logitech hardware trashing. Bought two G613 keyboards in the past couple years. Each one failed shortly after the 1 year warranty period. Both had the same double pressing chatter issue. I’ve been avoiding their mice for a while due to double clicking problems.
Ah I’m facing the double-typing on mine now as well. Though I’ve convinced myself to turn it into a personal project instead. I want to design a replacement PCB for G613 with MX switches.
Sounds like you too got your keyboard wet. I cleaned my G13 Orion once with liquids and practically destroyed it. G502 Hero is top class esp when taking price into consideration.
I’ve owned a G500s G502 and 2 G502 hero in the past 10 years and just got a 502 Hero Lightspeed. God I love it
All are still working
I liked my G512 so much I bought a second one to use at work but both had issues with keycaps breaking and LEDs dying. And the middle scroll on both my G403 mice had issues after a few months of use.
I’ve had to stop buying Logitech stuff, though I’ve still got a set of Z207 speakers that I like. Now I have a real mechanical keyboard that I can repair and a couple Glorious mice which are mostly okay.
I miss the days of the Logitech MX518 mouse. I had one that I probably used for like 5-6+ years, maybe longer. Solid mouse, no bullshit, indestructible.
Headphones are absolute trash and die constantly. But their MX Master series? I couldn’t be happier if I tried. Absolute top of the line. Gaming keyboards look the same cheap trash as others, so I wouldn’t wanna try em anyway.
I wouldn’t game fast game with the MX Master, but for productivity work, this is one of the best mouse i’ve used. My hand never gets tired.
Logitech hardware used to be good, but even that’s gone to shit. Got tired of their awful mechanical mice switches failing and switched to a Razer mouse with optical switches, no regrets.
Razer might actually fit better in this meme.
Has razer hardware gotten better? I stopped buying after 2 of their mice stopped working just after the warranty expired.
Not sure recently, had the same issue and busted 2 deathadders within 12 months of purchase. The clicker had a little stem to push the switch which cracked off. Ended up getting a zowie next and haven’t had any issues.
OG razer deathadders lasted forever had one and it never failed me, I made an investment to get the deathadder v3 pro and I love the thing, I’m hopping it lasts as long.
Razer hardware is pretty good, but the death adder definitely has a shelf life. The scroll wheel goes soft and the click switches go bad but that’s fixable.
The software is hot steaming dogshit. No other description fits. It’ll work fine for a few months or a year but then it starts crashing regularly for no reason. I tried a firmware update on my black widow 2012 and it bricked it. While searching for help, I discovered it was A KNOWN ISSUE THAT HADN’T BEEN FIXED IN 2 YEARS. They jerked me around about the warranty and I raised enough hell that they RMAd it with a newer black widow. I bought the 2012 edition purposely because it was blue and the new one was green so I was miffed about that, but it’s held up and is still my current emergency backup keyboard. It can deal with generic drivers though. Synapse will never touch my pc while I’m alive and I’m never giving razer another cent.

this works way better than the official thing.
Agreed, MX master plus logiops is gold on linux, 6+ years on my 2 (bit ugly now but still works great) and now a 3, no complaints.
Yeah Logitech Options sucked already, now Options+ is even worse. I switched to BetterMouse on Mac. $12 one time purchase and it’s a lot nicer.
Even ten years ago many of there hardware was garbage.
What is this meme? Logitech hardware sucks ass too
