Logitech’s G502 Lightspeed doesn’t compromise on performance, function, or price

Logitech’s new G502 Lightspeed is a wireless version of the company’s beloved G502 Hero gaming mouse that’s available today. At first glance, it doesn’t look very different; it still has 11 customizable buttons, it includes a range of weights to tweak how quickly (or slowly) the mouse can be dragged along your mouse pad, and it’s still comfortable to use for hours on end. Oh, and its Lightsync LEDs light up in some very nice ways.

These similarities are no coincidence. Logitech told me it was scared to change basically any facet of the mouse, but it said that it had to change almost everything internally in order to fit in its new low-latency Lightspeed wireless tech and add the ability to wirelessly charge by way of its optional…

Everyone in the Fashion Industry Will Buy These $60 Sandals This Summer

Over the past year, new-in sections have been like a revolving door of “dad” trends, with everything from anoraks to golf course–ready polos getting some attention from the fashion crowd, causing many a dad joke. This year, it’s practical sandals brand Teva that has had a quick shift in rep, as they’re selling quickly on ASOS and Urban Outfitters.

These are the type of shoes you’ll find for sale in any camping shop—alongside Cliff bars and CamelBaks. So what has made them suddenly become so popular? As with most unlikely trends, this one was started by Miuccia Prada, who has made chunky rubber-soled sandals with velcro straps a cult item, rather than just a sensible one.

These are shoes you can easily walk 10,000 steps a day in, thanks to the spongey platform and the adjustable straps. They come in many colors—orange, white, khaki, etc. However, the most popular style is the black Midform Chunky Sandals, which are $60 on Nordstrom. For those looking to go full-on “dad,” add a pair of white chunky ankle socks.

Match Group paid millions in stock awards that could help Tinder co-founder’s $2 billion lawsuit

Match Group, the dating app conglomerate that owns Tinder, Hinge, and more, had to pay Tinder employees $9.4 million in stock compensation this quarter because of the app’s rapid growth. That large number could have implications beyond the company’s finances: it might be consequential in the $2 billion lawsuit the company faces from Tinder co-founder Sean Rad.

Rad claims Match purposely undervalued Tinder in an effort to avoid paying out billions of dollars in stock to the team’s original employees. The bonuses being given out this quarter suggest Tinder’s valuation grew monumentally over the past couple years.

Alex Heath reported in Cheddar that an independent valuation earlier this year valued Tinder at $10 billion, which would…
