Ranked #3 in Best Gaming Mice
Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2
$160as of Apr 17

The Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 is the wireless mouse the esports world rebuilt around — 60 g, the new HERO 2 sensor at up to 44,000 DPI and 8000 Hz polling, and 95-hour battery on a single charge. IGN's 8/10 review called it the gold standard of competitive FPS hardware, with the trade-off being a $159 price tag and the absence of RGB or extra side buttons that gamers wanting more flair will miss.

Strengths
  • Ultra-lightweight 63g design
  • HERO 2 sensor with 32,000 DPI
  • LIGHTSPEED wireless technology
Watch-outs
  • Premium price point
  • No RGB lighting
  • Ambidextrous shape may not suit all grips

Ranked #5 in Best Gaming Mice
Logitech G502 X Plus
$160

The Logitech G502 X Plus is the do-everything mouse of this lineup — a wireless reinvention of the legendary G502 with 13 programmable buttons, the dual-mode scroll wheel, the Hero 25K sensor and LIGHTSPEED wireless. Trusted Reviews called it 'a fantastic wireless gaming mouse' with 'one of the most comfortable shapes available,' and Tom's Guide rated it 'an excellent peripheral, and a strong contender for the best gaming mouse list.' Its ~106g weight rules it out of the featherweight esports race, but for MMO, MOBA and general use it is unmatched here.

Strengths
  • Loaded with buttons — 13 programmable controls plus the signature dual-mode hyper-fast scroll wheel
  • Comfortable, familiar G502 shape that reviewers call one of the most comfortable available
  • Hero 25K sensor (25,600 DPI) with low-latency LIGHTSPEED 2.4GHz wireless
Watch-outs
  • Heavy at ~106g — far from the featherweights in this category
  • Premium $160 price for a feature-rich rather than competition-light design
  • Weight and bulk dent its appeal as a pure competitive FPS mouse

How they stack up

Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2

Industry-leading lightweight design with exceptional sensor accuracy for competitive gaming.

Logitech G502 X Plus

The G502 X Plus is the heavyweight and the feature king of this lineup. At ~106g it is roughly double the 54g Razer Viper V3 Pro and far heavier than the 60g Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 and ~68g Glorious Model O 2 Wireless — a deliberate trade that buys 13 buttons and the dual-mode scroll wheel none of the others offer. Where the Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro and Viper V3 Pro chase minimalist FPS performance, the G502 X Plus targets MMO, MOBA and general productivity use.
