G Pro X2 Superstrike: One-minute review In an effort to shake up the gaming mouse market, Logitech has introduced the G Pro X2 Superstrike, with its unique customizable haptics that it hopes will elevate your game.

It doesnt look particularly spectacular, with its simple symmetrical shape
and lack of fancy accoutrements, such as RGB lighting. Its two-tone design is quite striking, though. I found the Pro X2 Superstrike comfortable to hold, thanks to its basic ergonomic form, although those with smaller hands might find it a bit too cumbersome. The build quality is exceptional, up there with the best gaming mouse constructions. The materials feel smooth and durable, while all buttons and the scroll wheel operate with a satisfying solidity.

At 61g, the Pro X2 Superstrike isnt heavy, either. Its a shame, though, that most of the weight is concentrated towards the front. This can make lift-offs a little awkward as the rear has a tendency to tilt upward.

The Pro X2 Superstrike can be customized using Logitechs G HUB software. It offers plenty of configurability, from DPI sensitivity to remapping, as well as featuring various adjustments for the Pro X2 Superstrikes Haptic Inductive Trigger System (HITS). Theres also a Bunny Hop (BHOP) mode for preventing accidental scroll wheel flicks.

It glides smoothly, albeit with slightly more friction than some other gaming mice, and all buttons operate easily and trigger consistently. Also, I didnt experience any miscrolls when using the middle click, even with the BHOP mode disabled.

The headline HITS feature allows for meaningful adjustments to the actuation point and haptic feedback of clicks, which can make a big difference to feel. You can set them to be very fast and light, or slow and heavy. Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.

However, theres no analog functionality or controller emulation, which means neither modular inputs nor dual binding is possible. This feels like a missed opportunity, given there are analog keyboards that offer these abilities.

Rapid Trigger isnt as pronounced as you get from such keyboards, either.
There are only five settings to choose from, and the difference between the slowest and fastest settings isnt huge. Quite how useful the pros will think RT in a mouse remains to be seen, but its still nice to see a gaming mouse trying something different.

I experienced no wireless connectivity issues during my time with the Pro X2 Superstrike. Its a shame theres no Bluetooth mode, as many other gaming mice at this price point include such support. Battery life is impressive, though: in my experience, Logitechs claimed 90-hour endurance seems to hold true.

Ultimately, the Pro X2 Superstrike seems more like a promising proof-of-concept until more can be extracted from the haptic system, it remains something of a gimmick. The price-to-features ratio of the mouse also means that it doesnt offer the best value for money, given the competition at this end of the market. The Pro X2 Superstrike is an excellent performer all things considered, but its perhaps best suited to the elites. Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike review: Price & availability (Image credit: Future) $179.99 / 159.99 / AU$$299.95 Available now High-end of the market The Logitech G Pro
X2 Superstrike costs $179.99 / 159.99 / AU$$299.95 and is available now in
one colorway: a black and white finish known as Lunar Eclipse.

This places the mouse at the top end of the market. Its about the same price as the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro , a similarly pro-focused symmetrical wireless gaming mouse. We were very impressed with this model, thanks to its lightweight build and lightning-quick performance not to mention its phenomenal 150-hour battery life and superb optical scroll wheel.

For something cheaper but more versatile, theres the HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 Pro . Unlike the Pro X2 Superstrike, it features a DPI selector button and multiple wireless connectivity options (2.4GHz and Bluetooth). It games very well, too, although the prominent slope of the mouse buttons mightnt be for everyone. Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike review: Design (Image credit: Future) Superb build quality No DPI button Numerous customizations via G HUB Logitech hasnt exactly pushed the envelope in terms of looks, but nevertheless, the
Pro X2 Superstrike is still a pleasing piece of design. Its soft form is antithetical to the more angular and aggressive gaming mice and its all the better for it.

The two-tone design also makes it look less anonymous than it otherwise would be. The black buttons contrast starkly with the white finish, while the small logo and various wordings add interest.

The symmetrical shape is neat and ergonomic, although those with smaller
hands might have a hard time gripping it fully, since its quite large. Its
not heavy, though, as it weighs just 61g, with most of that mass concentrated at the front end.

The Pro X2 Superstrike bears Logitechs typical high levels of build quality. The plastic chassis feels solid and super smooth, which is certainly welcome but doesnt offer much purchase. Fortunately, optional grip tape is included for the sidewalls and mouse buttons.

Underneath the Pro X2 Superstrike are two skates: the front one is quite large, while the back one is thin and runs around the bottom curve. If these skates dont provide enough glide for your liking, you can replace the stock lid for the dongle compartment with one that has a skate on it (included in the box).

All buttons operate sufficiently, although the scroll wheel isnt the sturdiest: theres a fair amount of lateral play, but thankfully this didnt pose an issue during normal use. A bigger issue for some might be the lack of buttons, especially those for cycling DPI or a sniper button. (Image credit: Future) Fortunately, theres plenty of scope to customize the buttons that are present using Logitechs G HUB software. All inputs can be remapped to a multitude of alternatives, from system and mouse adjustments to individual keys and recorded macros.

The Pro X2 Superstrike can also make use of the brands ubiquitous G-Shift function, which allows you to assign any button as a shift to access a second layer of binds. With this, I managed to create my own DPI button by designating the middle click as the G-Shift and setting the G-Shift layer of the rear side button as the DPI cycler. I kept the middle click functionality present by assigning it to the G-Shift layer of the right mouse button.

G HUBs most notable adjustments for the Pro X2 Superstrike, though, concern its Haptic Inductive Trigger System (HITS). You can alter the actuation
point, Rapid Trigger setting, and haptic feedback of both mouse buttons either in tandem or individually.

There are 10 actuation points to choose from, which is quite a generous
range, given the relatively short travel of the buttons. Theres also a visualizer that moves in real time with the pressure you exert, allowing you to see precisely where your chosen actuation point is. (Image credit: Future) Unfortunately, however, theres no such visualizer for the Rapid Trigger; a setting where its more important to see how your adjustments work, Id argue. Another disappointing aspect of the Pro X2 Superstrikes Rapid Trigger implementation is that there are only five levels to choose from. This contrasts starkly to some of the best gaming keyboards , which offer far more scope in their settings. Haptic feedback for the Pro X2 Superstrike also has five levels, but I feel this is an appropriate number for this particular parameter.

G HUB also lets you toggle the Bunny Hop (BHOP) mode of the Pro X2 Superstrike, which is designed to prevent accidental flicks of the scroll wheel. It does this by preventing a single notch from registering; only the second will, so long as its within a certain amount of time of the first.
This timeframe is adjustable between 100ms and a full second.

As is standard on pretty much all peripheral software, G HUB provides DPI adjustments, too. This includes five customizable presets, where you can set DPI values between 100 and 44,000. Each of these also has its own lift-off distance setting, although pros might be disappointed with the lack of metrics: the three options to choose from are low, medium, or high, with no measurement in millimeters given.

Overall, though, G HUB is clearly laid out and easy to navigate. I didnt experience any technical hitches or bugs during my time with it, either. Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike review: Performance (Image credit: Future) Great-feeling clicks Limited usage for haptic buttons Front-heavy design not for everyone The performance of the Pro X2 Superstrike should meet the expectations of elite gamers. With its 8K polling rate, aiming is fast and accurate, while gliding is smooth although theres a little more friction
than what the smoothest pointers provide. However, the skate-lined dongle lid certainly improved matters, and I cant say my aiming was adversely affected when playing fast-paced shooters such as Counter-Strike 2 .

That front-heavy design proved more of an issue, though. Whenever I lifted
the Pro X2 Superstrike before swipes, the whole unit wanted to swing backwards, which forced me to grip harder than I wouldve liked to. I managed to acclimatize to this way of playing to a degree, but it remained a
grievance I held with the Pro X2 Superstrike, albeit a minor one.

The middle click is very stable and easy to operate, while the prominent notching of the scroll wheel meant I never felt the need to enable BHOP mode.

The HITS buttons, though, are the standout feature of the Pro X2 Superstrike. The adjustments you make here can translate to radical differences in feel, from light and fast to heavy and slow. When you find the sweet spot, clicks manage to be snappy, impactful, and comfortable all at the same time, which
is quite the feat. They always feel very nicely damped, more so than those of other gaming mice unless you have the haptic feedback on its lowest setting, in which case there's virtually no sensation at all.

Logitech also claims the haptic clicks in the Pro X2 Superstrike reduce latency by up to 30ms compared to traditional microswitches. I cant say I honestly noticed an increased responsiveness over other gaming mice Ive
tried, but theyre certainly not any slower. (Image credit: Future) The effect of the Rapid Trigger function is also hard to discern. The difference between the slowest and fastest settings is subtle; pro players may well be more attuned to them, but I dont think the implementation of RT in the Pro X2 Superstrike is anywhere near as drastic as that of analog keyboards.

The haptic buttons also fall short of such boards in other ways. For
instance, you cant dual bind by making use of partway clicks, as you can with partway presses of analog keys.

Also, the Pro X2 Superstrike cant emulate the graduated control of gamepad triggers and joysticks, as some analog keyboards can. Granted, the functionality doesnt always work as well as you might hope, but I still think such emulation on the mouse would be useful for certain games.

Whats more, PC games dont make use of intricate haptic feedback (at least currently). One of the great things about the PS5 is the haptic triggers of its DualSense . This really does add immersion by imparting an impressive array of sensations, corresponding with the type of game being played and the gameplay context. This aspect is a large part of why its one of the best PS5 controllers around. (Image credit: Future) While its nice to be able to
adjust the haptics of the Pro X2 Superstrike, the system is limited by comparison. Once youve found your ideal setting, youll have little incentive to change it, and youll find clicks dont necessarily feel any better than those of best gaming mice with conventional switches.

I have fewer complaints about the connectivity of the Pro X2 Superstrike. The 2.4GHz USB dongle provides a fast and stable connection, and I didnt experience any drop-outs or lag. One odd glitch, though, was that my last selected DPI setting took a while to kick in whenever the mouse awoke from
its sleep. Its also a shame a mouse this expensive doesnt have additional Bluetooth support to allow for hot-swapping between multiple devices.

The battery life of the Pro X2 Superstrike is very impressive. After several days of use, it only declined by about 20%, and it seems that Logitechs 90-hour claim holds water. Should I buy the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike? Scorecard Swipe to scroll horizontally

Value

Pro gamers might see more value in the Pro X2 Superstrike than casuals, given the relative lack of buttons and extra features for the price it commands.

3 / 5

Design

Its hard to fault the build quality, save from the slightly loose scroll wheel. Its a shame theres no DPI button, but at least G HUB offers plenty of customization options.

4 / 5

Performance

The haptic buttons are a joy to use, but how much use the average player will make use of their adjustability is open to debate. The unbalanced weight can pose swiping issues, too.

4 / 5

Average rating

The Pro X2 Superstrike is certainly a gaming mouse fit for pros, and its haptic clicks are an admirable attempt at innovation. But its high price, combined with its lack of buttons and Bluetooth connectivity, mean its less appealing for the wider gaming community.

4 / 5 Buy it if You want to change your click feel Clicks feel great, and the ability to change actuation and haptic feedback will please exacting gamers. You want a premium design The chassis is smooth and solid but also light, while the buttons seem durable and operate easily. Dont buy it if Youll be using it with multiple devices Since theres only one way to connect wirelessly, switching between devices isnt as seamless as it could be if it had Bluetooth as well. You have high hopes for haptic clicks Don't get me wrong, the HITS mouse buttons are great but were yet to see any mice or PC games themselves realize their full potential.
