Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX Mouse Review

The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX has a minimal style and a smooth matte plastic coating. We bought the Pink version of this mouse, but it's also available in White or Black. The palm rest has a silver-colored Logitech Logo, and the word "SUPERLIGHT" is written on the right side.

This mouse is somewhat large and bulky, but there's a compartment on the bottom where you can store the wireless receiver.

The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX has excellent build quality. The body is made of smooth, matte coated plastic that feels pleasant to the touch. There aren’t any creaking sounds when squeezing the mouse and no rattling pieces if you shake it. The main buttons have a crisp, satisfying actuation and don’t have any noticeable side-to-side play. Unfortunately, the side buttons feel a bit mushier. Lastly, while the shell feels very sturdy and exhibits very minimal flex, you can actuate the side buttons if you press forcefully into the side panels below the buttons. However, this is fairly typical and likely won’t present issues during normal usage unless you grip your mouse very forcefully.

The lowest weight measurement is achieved by removing the plastic puck that comes pre-installed on the mouse. This puck is also compatible with Logitech's G PowerPlay wireless charging mousepad.

This mouse includes an alternate, slightly heavier puck (1.9g), which has a PTFE foot.

Despite being fairly large and bulky, the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX is well-suited for most hand sizes and grip types. Its fuller shape and rear hump make it well-suited for a palm or claw grip.

If you have very large hands, your fingers may hang over the front edge of the mouse, particularly when using a palm grip.

The side buttons and scroll wheel are easy to reach. However, if you have extra small hands, you may have some difficulty reaching the side buttons using any grip type, and the overall size of the mouse may make the mouse difficult to control, particularly for a fingertip grip.

This mouse has a maximum advertised battery life of up to 95 hours of constant motion. Note that Logitech doesn't indicate on their product page what settings they used to produce this estimate.

Be aware that using the 'optical only' setting in the software for the LIGHTFORCE switches and using higher polling rates, in particular, will drain the battery much quicker.

This mouse comes with a rubber USB-A to USB-C cable. It's decently flexible and doesn't have any kinks from its packaging. However, like other rubber cables, it's prone to catch and drag on tables compared to higher-quality paracord-like cables.

The feet glide smoothly on hard and soft mousepads and directly on desks. They produce slightly scratchy sounds when used directly on a desk, but it doesn't impact the glide performance.

The pre-installed plastic puck on the underside of the mouse doesn't have a PTFE foot. There's an extra plastic puck with a PTFE foot included in the box. It likely won't provide any noticeable gliding improvement for most people, but it can provide more gliding surface area if you have a very soft mousepad or press down fairly forcefully into your mouse while using it.

This mouse uses what Logitech calls their LIGHTFORCE optical-mechanical switches. They're the same model switches (Omron D2FP-FH1) used in both the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 and the Logitech G502 X.

In the configuration software, there's an option to toggle these switches between an 'optical only' mode and a 'hybrid' mode. The switches feel the same in both modes, but the hybrid mode consumes less battery at the cost of latency performance.

You can reprogram all of the buttons, including the left- and right-click buttons. You can also assign what Logitech calls a 'G-Shift' button that allows you to toggle to a secondary layer of programmable controls.

The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX has exceptionally low and extremely consistent click latency. It delivers a remarkably responsive-feeling experience for gaming in any genre and is well-suited for casual or competitive play.

We conducted this test with the 'optical only' switch setting selected in the companion software, a 1000Hz wired polling rate, and an 8000Hz wireless polling rate.

We also conducted this test at different wireless polling rates and achieved the following results

• 1000Hz: 1.8 ms
• 4000Hz: 1.4 ms

The G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX's sensor delivers remarkably accurate and consistent tracking during mouse movements based on your chosen CPI setting.

The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX has outstanding sensor latency. It reacts extremely quickly to your inputs, so you won't notice any delay.

The above test results are achieved using the mouse's maximum polling rate of 8000Hz and with gaming surface mode turned off.

We also conducted supplementary testing at 4000Hz and 1000Hz and found the following results:

4000Hz:

• Delay to start of movement: 11.1 ms
• Delay at half movement: 1.8 ms
• Delay to end of movement: 1.3 ms

1000Hz:

• Delay to start of movement: 12.2 ms
• Delay at half movement: 3.0 ms
• Delay to end of movement: 2.6 ms

This mouse's wireless polling rate options are 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, and 8000Hz. The wired polling rate options are 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, and 1000Hz.

The scroll wheel is made of plastic, and it has a rubberized strip with small ridges for added grip. Scrolling feels smooth and precise. The steps have slightly more definition than on the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2, and scrolling is slightly louder but still relatively quiet.

The middle click button takes a moderate amount of force to actuate and feels the same as the original SUPERLIGHT 2.

The left- and right-click buttons are on the louder side and may irritate those around you in noise-sensitive environments. That said, the side buttons, scroll wheel, and middle click button are relatively quiet.

The software is well laid out and intuitive. It allows you to customize various expected options, including CPI, polling rate, sensor calibration, button assignments, and custom macros.

Additionally, the software allows you to change how the left- and right-click switches operate. You can toggle the switches between a default 'optical only' mode which provide the best performance for gaming and a power-saving 'hybrid' setting.

Like similar software options from other major manufacturers, Logitech's G HUB software is a source of frequent criticism from the broader community. While we didn't experience any issues during the testing of this mouse, many users online identify this software as requiring frequent updates and taking up disproportionate system resources, among other complaints. This software may be frustrating if you prefer more lightweight software options or no software at all.
