Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 Gaming Mouse Review
Bottom Line
Choose the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 for competitive FPS speed, comfort, battery life, and reliable wireless performance. Skip it if you need a bargain, softer clicks, smoother stock skates, a DPI button, or lots of extra controls.
Best for
It best serves competitive FPS players who prioritize low weight, a familiar safe shape, precise tracking, low-latency wireless use, and long battery life. It also fits users already comfortable with Logitech’s Superlight shape and G Hub ecosystem.
Not for
It is not ideal for buyers who want lots of buttons, Bluetooth, RGB, a dedicated DPI switch, or the best value from a small upgrade. Users sensitive to heavy clicks, stock-skate drag, or G Hub complexity may prefer another mouse.
Verdict
Across the reviews, the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 lands as a conservative but highly capable esports mouse. Reviewers repeatedly praise the low weight, familiar shape, accurate HERO 2 sensor, responsive wireless feel, strong battery life, and tactile Lightforce switches. The tradeoff is that Logitech kept the no-frills formula: no onboard DPI button, no Bluetooth, no RGB, limited buttons, and stock skates or cable quality that several reviewers disliked. It feels most convincing when judged as a competitive FPS tool, less so as a value upgrade from the original Superlight or as a feature-rich all-purpose mouse.

FAQ
Is the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 good for FPS games?
Yes. Reviewers repeatedly praised its accuracy, responsiveness, low weight, and fast wireless feel for first-person shooters and competitive play.
Is it worth upgrading from the original Superlight?
The evidence is mixed. Reviewers liked USB-C, the newer sensor, better battery life, and updated switches, but several said the changes are too minor to justify an upgrade if the original still works.
How are the Lightforce switches?
Many reviewers liked their crisp, tactile, responsive feel. Others found them heavier, louder, or less ideal for spam-clicking games.
Does the mouse have a dedicated DPI button?
No. Multiple reviewers criticized the missing DPI button because DPI changes require G Hub or remapping one of the limited buttons.
How is battery life?
Battery life was generally praised, with reviewers reporting long use between charges. Several noted that higher polling rates reduce runtime.
Are the stock skates good?
Opinions were mixed to negative. Some reviewers liked the glide, but several complained about drag, thin PTFE feet, or worse performance on softer and rougher pads.
