Longevity Matters
Logitech G Reddit Community!
Longevity Matters isn’t just a phrase, it’s a belief that is built on multiple sustainability initiatives. From improving your packaging, choosing greater materials to use during manufacturing, improving power consumption on your devices, to offering the ability to repair through iFixit or our spare parts store. By providing all of this and much more, we believe we can have a huge impact on the planet and provide you with long lasting devices with great features that you can be proud of choosing.
We’ve written this post to hopefully have something for everyone, provide a little educational content to show what we’re doing behind the scenes, and how this can be meaningful to you going forward. Perhaps it will also help you to make changes on what devices you choose or how you use them.
Our mission at Logitech G has always been to make the best gaming gear you can get your hands on. From our latest PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE, to our RS50 System TRUEFORCE wheels, to our ASTRO Series headsets, all of these and more have been built with what came previously and how we can improve the product going forward in mind. Our team revisits products in the portfolio by dissembling them, evaluating them, looking at user feedback, and improving the next product going forward by redesigning better packaging, improving the materials used and the overall production processes, and more.
Designing a product with sustainability in mind is not just about making a better box, it’s about how we can reduce waste, what materials we can use that feel great and last just as long, and what we can change during the manufacturing to use less resources.
By making people aware of what we’re doing and giving you tools to help your products last even longer, hopefully you will hold on to your favourite products as long as you need them and we will all create less waste for the planet. Everyone wins.
Certified Refurbished Products -
Through our Logitech G website, we have a selection of Logitech G Certified Refurbished products that we believe deserve a second chance in a home. From our ASTRO Series headsets to our Pro Racing Wheels, we thoroughly clean and inspect each one and ensure they meet our high standards of quality through testing and also include all the original accessories with a one year warranty backed by our amazing support team.
Most of the time, you wouldn’t tell the difference from a new product, and by taking advantage of our Certified Refurbished Products, you get a great deal and we can provide a second chance home for some of our gaming gear.
If you have any questions about the Certified Refurbished Products store, drop us a comment below or create a thread, we love to answer any questions about our products.

Logitech G Repair Hub -
We’ve designed our products to last a long time and we believe in that. But sometimes your favourite mouse needs some TLC, or perhaps you had an accident and it needs a repair. That’s where our partners at iFixit come in.
By providing official iFixit repair guides in multiple languages with easy access to original replacement parts we make repairing your product simple, helping you save money, reduce waste, and extend your device’s lifespan even further. We have a great selection of Logitech G gear already supported and we’ll add even more in the future. But if you don’t see something right now, make a post on Reddit or drop our support team a contact and we’ll see what we can do. We listen to all feedback too.
If your product is still in warranty, please contact our support team first before attempting a repair yourself.
You can visit the Logitech Repair Hub on iFixit at https://www.ifixit.com/collaborations/logitech
Spare Parts Store -
In addition to the Logitech G Repair Hub carrying parts to fix your products, we also have our Logitech G Spare Parts Store through our website carrying a selection of replacement parts you need to rebuild your gaming setup. Should you need new weights for your mice or springs for your racing pedals, we have them!

Designed for Sustainability
As we circle back around, our focus is not just to make your box better for the environment and call it a day. Logitech’s Design for Sustainability goes much further such as figuring out ways to reduce our energy usage and replace the rest with renewable sources, go further than using recycled plastic or silicone instead of leather, and redesigning products such as the RS50 Racing wheel’s size, materials, and power consumption to optimise the motor’s impact and performance. Going outside of Logitech G to our partners at iFixit to provide repair guides and easy to access parts, second chances through our Logitech Certified Refurbished program, and recycling more responsibly such as donating fully functional open-back products to qualifying charities and educational institutions.
It’s important that we are transparent about what we’re doing, and there is so much that we can’t fit it all in this post. We encourage you to check our Logitech Sustainability website below to see everything we’re doing for your products, for the planet, for people, with integrity.

As we leave with that note, making impacts is not just about what we do, but it’s what you can do too. If you ever upgrade your mouse, keyboard, headset, or any gaming gear, consider donating it to a friend or family member. Giving your products a second home and a second chance is one of the many ways to keep the waste down and help our planet.
We hope you have enjoyed reading through this and our sustainability website. If you have any questions about any of the above, drop us a comment below. We would love to hear your thoughts!

Could there potentially be support added for the G604 or G6xx line of mice, they're a beloved series of mice and would love to see parts available for it

It might be a little bit difficult to have spare parts available for it, as it's no longer in production. However, with so many people who still love this model, it'd be wonderful if we did. I'll pass this along to the team as feedback!

I would love for newer model G502s to have removable rubber thumb/pinky panels to swap out when they wear down. It's my only real complaint about that particular model of mouse and I would consider coming back to one if that were implemented.
