Logitech Pro X2 Superstrike

It’s not often where you see advancements in computer mice that really make a difference. When Logitech offered to send over a Pro X2 Superstrike with their new mouse button that's uniquely designed to allow for analog type presses similar to hall effect buttons, I was intrigued. Could this really be different from all the other mice out there?

The Logitech Pro X2 Superstrike is a wireless gaming mouse that offers up one very important design feature that I’ll cover in just a bit. Let’s start off with the shape. It’s a right handed mouse with the same shape as their Pro X Superlight. The simple shape is good for a more of a grip hold and features the standard five-button layout. There’s two main buttons on top, a ratcheted mouse wheel on top that you can depress, and two thumb buttons. So, nothing fancy in terms of design externally. It’s very similar to the past Pro X line of mice on the outside.

It’s got a white and black color scheme which Logitech refers to as lunar eclipse. The majority of the body is white with two large black buttons and the lettering being the opposite color of the surroundings, depending on where it’s placed. It’s a nice looking mouse and I do enjoy the two-tone color scheme compared to what they’ve had in the past.

The Pro X line of mice has always been lightweight and this is the same here. We’re talking 61 grams, making it pretty light but not the lightest in the Superlight line of mice. Still, that’s a pretty light mouse to be moving around.

The two side buttons are your standard mouse buttons with a nice tactile click when pressed. These two are located at the usual side location with easy access to them with your thumb. Their sizes are good and there’s a good amount of space between them where you can feel the separation easily enough and know quickly which one you’re pressing.

Underneath are two Teflon-coated skates: a very large one at the top and a U-shaped one that hugs the back. I think they’re fine here. Some may want smaller skates for less contact on the surface, but I have no issues with the size of the skates on the bottom.

Unlike my other Pro X mouse that I’ve been using, the Pro X2 Superstrike does not have DPI button switch here. I’m assuming it’s to try and make it as light as possible by removing some features, with this button being the case. I would have preferred it if this was on the mouse as I’ve used it on my other Logitech mice more than occasionally, but you’ll have to resort to binding some button combinations to the mouse if you want to switch the DPI profile.

The Hero 2 sensor on the bottom has a maximum DPI of 44,000 with 88G of acceleration and up to an 8,000 Hz polling rate. The Hero line of sensors has been pretty solid for Logitech and it’s been a solid sensor from what I’ve experienced in the past. It’s battle tested and offers great performance with a great deal of customization.

But the big thing with the Logitech Pro X2 Superstrike is the new Haptic Inductive Trigger System or HITS for short. This new technology for button mice consists of basically a haptic motor to send back any feedback of a mouse button actuating and an inductive coil that senses how far you depress the button. With HITS, you can now program it to actuate at various points, like a hall effect keyboard switch and the haptic motor can be adjusted to how strong the feedback is.

With the mouse unpowered and turned off, you basically feel nothing when you press any of the too-many buttons. It almost feels like a broken mouse. Because there are no switches or springs, there is no feedback and, therefore, it’s like pressing a dead button. It’s a very odd feeling and in the software you can set it this way when the mouse is in use, but I highly recommend against doing this.

At the highest level of actuation, you barely have to touch the mouse button in order to click it. It takes such a light touch that I was inadvertently clicking the mouse when I was just barely resting my finger on it. For my own gaming preference, I have it actuate three slots down in the configuration option. It takes a lot less force than a normal mouse, but it isn’t on a hair trigger actuation like the lowest setting.

You can set each mouse button to actuate at the same point or different points allowing for some very specific fine tuning. If you prefer one button to take a little more force than the other, you can do so in the software.

Rapid trigger also makes an appearance in the Pro X2 Superstrike, a very popular feature on analog keyboards. Normally, you’d have to release the mouse button and let it spring back to its initial position before you can press down again. With the rapid feature enabled, you just only need to slightly let the mouse button come up and you can actuate it again by pressing down. Theoretically, this would enable a lot faster sequential mouse clicks as you don’t need to have the button do a full reset.

Do the new buttons help you be a better gamer? That’s tough to say. In theory, you’ll now be able to fire your gun faster as you don’t have to press down as much to actuate the mouse and rapid trigger. On paper, that should make you fire multiple times faster. In some of my testing, I was able to achieve a little bit of a lower response time when shooting at a target. I also ran some action games in my lineup such as Helldivers 2, Doom: The Dark Ages, and Call of Duty, to name a few. I certainly didn’t score worse than what I’m used to and there were some games where I did a little bit better than I usually do.

I am definitely no pro gamer and I’m way past my prime on having the best reaction time. That said, I did find the mouse to be very comfortable to hold as I've been using the Superlight 2 as my main mouse for a while. So, getting used to the Pro X2 Superstrike wasn’t hard for me.

I did find the new buttons, after a small amount of time getting adjusted to them, to be really nice. I really liked how the feedback felt and it is a lot different than a mechanical button on most mice. When dialed in with my preferred actuation point and feedback strength, it’s one of the better feeling mice I’ve used. And that’s one of the great things about the Pro X2 Superstrike.

For productivity, there’s really nothing to be gained from the HITS buttons. During the day, I used the mouse to do some programming and writing, which did its job without any issues. It’s not like I’m gaining any extra productivity by pressing the buttons faster. Photoshop work was fine, but I attribute that to the accurate sensor more than anything else.

There’s a lot of options to customize the buttons to make it comfortable for you and you won’t get that in any other mouse. It might not result into a vastly higher score, but it does a good job in catering to a more comfortable and enjoyable experience due to the nature of the new button technology.

The mouse is rated at around 95 hours of usage, depending on your settings. I was able to pop in my PowerPlay pick into the button of the mouse and use it without any interruption wirelessly. There are no RGB lights on the mouse to take away from the battery life, and at 90+ hours or so, you’ll get a lot of gaming out of it before you have to recharge. And if you’re like me who uses a Logitech PowerPlay mouse pad, you won’t have to worry about charging the mouse at all.

Speaking of wireless, you can only connect this mouse to your computer using the included dongle. There’s no Bluetooth option here. That’s not out of the ordinary for Logitech as a few of their gaming mice don’t have that feature as well, but I wanted to mention this just in case you were thinking of connecting it to another computer without the need for the dongle.

Coming in at $180 at the time of writing, this is one of the more expensive mice out there. Compared to others around that price range, it does lack a lot of buttons. For example, one of my old favorites, the G502 X Plus has more functions available at your fingertips. But this is brand new technology when it comes to mouse buttons and it’s one that I really, really like after using it for a few weeks.

It’s not feature rich, but it does have a feature that’s unique. The Logitech Pro X2 Superstrike is something that we haven’t seen much in recent years and that’s innovation in the gaming mice arena. With a lot of options to customize the main buttons, a high quality sensor, and a very light feel, the Pro X2 Superstrike is a great gaming mouse, but at a pretty expensive price.
