I tried a logitech mouse with that feature, mx anywhere 2s, but you lose the mousewheel middle-click as the wheel-mode switch is a physical switch and cannot be remapped.

Ended up taking it back for a refund and getting a g703 instead.

Interesting. The G502 has the middle-click on the scroll wheel and the wheel-mode is a separate one. Presumably like in your G703.

I don't think I have a wheel-mode option on my G703. I have a small button above the wheel which changes the pointer speed, but nothing I can see that puts the wheel into an accelerated more.

Honestly if the "2s Anywhere" had had the setup you described I would have kept it. Logitech tried to explain that middle slick was still there, on the button further back towards the palm rest, but it felt so unnatural and inconvenient. The 502 looks like a nice piece of kit.
