Reviewed by me, the parent, road-tested by my 12-year-old who wouldn’t give it back!

There’s a particular kind of product that makes you stop and ask: why didn’t anyone do this sooner? The Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE is one of those products. It doesn’t just iterate on what came before — it genuinely rethinks one of the most fundamental elements of a gaming mouse: the click itself.

What’s Actually New Here

The headline feature is the Haptic Inductive Trigger System, or HITS. Rather than the traditional mechanical microswitch sitting beneath each main button, Logitech has replaced it with a combination of tiny haptic motors and inductive sensors. Because the left and right buttons use induction sensors, there’s no mechanical action that locks where the click should occur. This means the actuation point — the depth at which a click registers — is fully adjustable across 10 levels, giving players fine-grained control over exactly how light or deep a press needs to be before it fires.

Paired with this is Rapid Trigger support, which allows the button to register a second click the moment you begin to lift your finger, rather than waiting for it to physically reset. Logitech claims HITS technology cuts click latency by up to 30ms compared to traditional microswitches. Logitech That might sound modest, but in competitive gaming, 30ms is a meaningful margin — the difference between landing a shot and missing it.

Because I can’t accurately measure the speed, I’ve read the figures from the team at Tom’s Hardware, who put that figure to the test using AimLabs and found that raising the actuation point to its highest level dropped average reaction time from 247ms to 218ms — a perceptible, real-world improvement in the heat of a match.

In the Hands of a Young Gamer

Our tester — a 12-year-old who takes his gaming very seriously — took to this mouse immediately. His two biggest observations were battery life and responsiveness, and the SUPERSTRIKE delivers on both fronts.

Battery life sits at 60 to 90 hours on a single charge, with LIGHTSPEED wireless delivering lag-free connectivity at up to 8kHz polling. For a kid who hates being told to stop gaming and charge his peripherals, this was a major win. The mouse also supports wireless charging during play when paired with Logitech’s PowerPlay 2 mousepad (sold separately), making dead-battery interruptions essentially a thing of the past. You could also just plug a USB-C cable into the front!

On responsiveness, the verdict was immediate and enthusiastic: everything felt sharper and quicker. That tracks with the underlying specs — the mouse features a maximum DPI of 44,000 and an 8,000Hz polling rate, alongside the HERO 2 sensor capable of tracking at over 888 IPS and 88G of acceleration. In practical terms, that’s more precision than any human hand can challenge.

Design and Build

The SUPERSTRIKE carries forward the familiar PRO X Superlight (REALLY VERY LIGHT!) silhouette — a right-handed, symmetrical-leaning shape that has been refined over several generations. If you’ve used a G Pro or Superlight in the past, the X2 should feel instantly familiar. It weighs in at just 59–61 grams depending on configuration, making it one of the lighter mice in its class. The feet are UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) with curved edges for smooth, consistent gliding, and there’s no RGB lighting to worry about — a clean, no-frills aesthetic that keeps the focus on performance. The Pro X2 has a 2-Year Limited Hardware Warranty should all go pear-shaped.

Connectivity is via Logitech’s 2.4GHz LIGHTSPEED wireless or wired USB-C. The USB dongle stores neatly inside the mouse itself, which is a small but thoughtful detail.

A Few Caveats

This is a premium product at a premium price. There’s no onboard DPI selector, so you’ll need Logitech’s G HUB software to configure the mouse to your preferences, but tbh we’ve used it as it was, right out of the box with zero issues, This fine for most users, but worth knowing upfront. The haptic click feedback, while convincing, does have a subtly different feel to a traditional mechanical click; even at its highest setting, there’s a slight roundness to each click that gives away its haptic nature. Most users adapt quickly, but it’s a noticeable change if you’re coming from a conventional mouse. It has been said by others that the haptic, rather than “actual switches” makes for lower battery life, but again, the reality is, unless you’re playing looooong tournaments, you’re very unlikely to hit the battery limitations.

Verdict

The Logitech G PRO X2 SUPERSTRIKE is a genuinely innovative piece of hardware. The HITS technology isn’t a gimmick — it’s a measurable performance improvement wrapped in one of the best wireless mouse designs currently available. For competitive young gamers who live and breathe reaction time, it’s a remarkable tool. Even though it won’t automatically make you a better player, the HITS system feels like an important advancement in gaming mice… And not just measureable in the “here are the numbers” kinda way, it has had great “I’m waaaay faster than my friends” feedback, too – he’s no pro gamer, but he does love a W.

Score from my 12yo: 9/10

Pros: Groundbreaking haptic click system, (he loves the click factor) exceptional battery life, (he’s only charged it twice and it has been used well as you can see from the photo below!) ultra-precise HERO 2 sensor, 8kHz wireless polling, clean and lightweight design. Cons: Premium price point, but you know what they say “buy well, buy once”, and maybe the no onboard DPI button, slight adjustment period for the haptic click feel… All in all a GREAT gaming mouse, worthy of any gaming setup!
