Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 Review
Bottom Line
Choose the Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 if you want a light, fast, comfortable FPS mouse with strong battery life. Skip it if you need a cheaper mouse, onboard DPI controls, Bluetooth, RGB, or many MMO buttons.
Best for
Best for competitive FPS players and Superlight fans who value a familiar light shape, fast HERO 2 tracking, strong wireless performance, and deep G Hub tuning more than extra buttons or lighting.
Not for
Not for buyers who need Bluetooth, RGB, a physical DPI button, lots of MMO controls, a soft braided cable, or the cheapest upgrade path from the original Superlight.
Verdict
Reviewers broadly describe the Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 as a refinement of a proven esports mouse rather than a reinvention. Its strongest case is performance: the HERO 2 sensor, high polling options, low wireless latency, light body, and familiar shape repeatedly earn praise in FPS use. The tradeoff is that Logitech keeps the design very minimal. Several reviewers like the no-frills focus, but the lack of a dedicated DPI button, Bluetooth, RGB, and richer side-button setup makes the price feel high for anyone outside competitive play. Switch feel is also polarizing: many praise the tactile Lightforce clicks, while some find them heavier than ideal for spam-clicking.

-
Switch feel is polarizing: many love the tactile, crisp Lightforce clicks, while others find them heavier or worse for spam clicking.

-
Cross-platform compatibility is mainly Windows and macOS, with G Hub support on both and Windows 10/11 explicitly mentioned.
-
Click latency is mostly praised, especially in optical mode, though one measurement-focused reviewer found it less impressive than some competitors.
-
Click noise is mixed: some like the bassier or clicky sound, while others call the clicks loud or high-pitched.
-
Programmable buttons are present but limited in count, with five programmable buttons cited and remapping available in software.
-
Glide is mixed: PTFE feet and light weight help smooth movement, but several reviewers dislike the stock skates or find them slow.

-
Side button quality is the most repeated control weakness, often described as mushy, unchanged, or less tactile than the main clicks.
-
Handedness is limited: the shape is symmetrical or ambidextrous in form, but left-side thumb buttons make it effectively right-hand focused.
-
MOBA suitability is mixed to weak in the one direct mention, because stiffer clicks can be worse for spam-clicking games.
-
Cable feedback is mixed to negative: USB-C is welcomed, but reviewers criticize the rubber cable and wish it were softer or braided.

-
Skate durability and stock skate quality draw repeated criticism, including thin feet, compatibility changes, and recommendations for aftermarket skates.
-
RGB features are intentionally absent; reviewers usually treat this as a battery and weight tradeoff rather than a surprise.
-
Bluetooth support is explicitly absent; reviewers frame the mouse as a performance-focused 2.4GHz wireless device instead.
-
Tilt gesture controls are not supported in the evidence; the only direct mention says tilt support is missing.
