Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Dex hands on – the G Pro goes ergo

Logitech has simply unveiled the G Professional X Superlight 2 Dex, a brand new model of its Superlight 2 gaming mouse that takes on a brand new curvy form that’s geared toward interesting to avid gamers that aren’t so eager on the flatter, straighter-style of symmetrical mice like earlier G Professional iterations. I went hands-on with the Logitech G Professional X Superlight 2 Dex to see if it’s set to be a brand new gaming mouse revolution.

The Superlight 2 presently sits on our greatest gaming mouse information as the very best wi-fi ultralight gaming mouse, due to its snug symmetrical form, very gentle weight, and glorious general efficiency. So, can the brand new ergonomic model of this Logitech rodent carry out as nicely? Let’s have a look.

The story of Logitech’s G Professional lineup of gaming mice has been a peculiar one, with its G Professional Wi-fi being a landmark gaming mouse that launched in 2018 and mixed revolutionary wi-fi tech with a cushty and ambidextrous design. This was adopted by the primary Superlight model of that mouse that dropped the actually ambidextrous a part of the design by eradicating the buttons on its proper aspect – a disappointing transfer solely rectified by the just-now announcement G Professional 2 Lightspeed. By the way, Logitech’s naming for its G Professional lineup actually is terrible, provided that when you Google the latter mouse, all you’ll get is outcomes for the corporate’s G Professional headset.

The Superlight 2 adopted final yr and now we’ve got the Superlight 2 Dex, which is the primary G Professional Logitech mouse to sport an ergonomic, right-hand-only form. On this method, it turns into way more of a direct rival to the likes of the Razer Deathadder, with the non-Dex Superlight persevering with to be a rival to the Razer Viper.

Working rapidly via the specs of this mouse, it boasts some much more ludicrous numbers than we’ve obtained used to seeing from trendy gaming mice. Its Hero 2 sensor has an enormous 44,000 max DPI stage and it could actually observe at as much as 888 inches per second with a max acceleration of 88G. With the mouse additionally in a position to talk together with your PC at a polling fee of as much as 8KHz, Logitech has left no stone unturned in making certain this mouse has all of the numbers.

In our play testing, these numbers proved as succesful as another prime tier gaming mouse from the final a number of years. The ever persevering with developments in sensor tech are attention-grabbing and good to have however, apart from the slight increase in smoothness from the next polling fee, mice have been primarily flawless for gaming for years now.

By way of consolation, then, the brand new form (left above) didn’t instantly win me over as a efficiency gaming device. I’m so used to utilizing ever smaller, lighter, symmetrical mice, such because the Endgame Gear OP1 8K, Superlight 2, or Xtrfy MZ1 Wi-fi for gaming. I usually then resort to a G502 X for ‘snug’ desktop work and within the case of the Dex, switching to a bulkier ergonomic form truly felt much less snug. Nonetheless, when you’re used to utilizing a mouse just like the Razer Deathadder then the Dex is clearly going to make for a welcome different.

All that stated, the form is comparatively delicate, with a slight carry on the left aspect, and a slight widening of the rear. The entrance of the mouse feels all however similar to the prevailing G Professional lineup, which isn’t a nasty factor.

This sense of similarity and this mouse not instantly feeling like a revolutionary new stage of consolation or motion freedom is mirrored in the truth that the Superlight 2 Dex is identical 60g weight because the symmetrical Superlight 2. By trendy requirements that’s definitely decently gentle for a wi-fi choice but it surely’s not record-breaking, with the Razer Viper V3 Professional being 5g decrease and a number of other others sitting decrease nonetheless.

All advised, the Dex wears its qualities on its sleeve. It’s a barely extra ergonomic model of the Superlight 2 and that’s all there’s to it. For those who favor a barely extra leant-over, palm-supporting form mouse then the Dex will enchantment greater than the symmetrical Superlight 2. Each are nice mice when it comes to efficiency although each additionally stay very costly choices.
