Logitech G Pro X Superlight
Lighter, brighter, and faster, that's what gamers want, and Logitech isn't one to disappoint with every turn of the product crank. In order to fulfil our unquenchable thirst for minute performance metrics, the Logitech G Pro X Superlight takes the popular Logitech G Pro Wireless and shaves off 17 grams.
You'd hardly tell it by looking at the Pro X Superlight, though. It looks near-identical to the G Pro Wireless with the exact same hallmarks of the popular and simplistic gaming mouse. The outer shell is fairly pronounced near the palm, which adds that little extra support compared to sleeker mouse models, and there's the slightest touch of contouring on the primary mouse buttons and beneath where your thumb and pinky sit. All in all, it's a fairly restrained design by modern mouse standards.
I've been using the Superlight for over a month now and no complaints so far. Furthermore between mouse tests I resort back to the near-identical G Pro Wireless and I can attest to its comfort and longevity for over a year now. Beyond the usual wear and tear I'm yet to see any real signs of decay on the plastic, which I'm a little surprised about considering the matte black finish. And I see no reason why the Superlight would be any different in this regard.
The two do feel differently under hand, however. The G Pro Wireless is no welterweight but it feels practically portly by comparison to the Superlight. Just 17 grams separates the two yet they feel night and day next to each other. You'll notice the reduction in game when you're practically throwing the 63 gram Superlight around your desktop.
The Logitech Superlight has seen some major changes in order to meet its stringent weight requirements, and compete with its lightweight wireless competitors. Even many of the best wired lightweight mice for that matter.
There are no removable thumb buttons, those which had become a bit of a signature feature of the G Pro Wireless. Instead in their place are two permanently affixed thumb buttons on the left-hand side. That's a shame for a couple of reasons. First, it's a little less customisation on offer, although I'll admit that most users will end up opting for the exact same loadout even with the option. Second, the Superlight's omission of removable switches means it's now only suitable for right-handed users.
Design
- Basic design with no RGB lighting
- Remarkably light 63g, making it ideal for eSports
- PTFE aperture door allows for smooth gliding
The Logitech G Pro X Superlight is a sophisticated mouse that offers peak performance in a minimalist package. There’s no fancy RGB or absurd franken-buttons to tinker with – it gives you exactly what you need.
Two responsive side buttons allow players to map extra inputs, but it’s clear the focus here is on aim, which is the reason anything that could be deemed unnecessary has been stripped out, including an onboard DPI button. The result of this design-by-subtraction process is a mouse that looks sharp on your desk with its smooth sheen and small footprint.
