Our Verdict

Endgame Gear XM1

HyperX Pulsefire Haste

The HyperX Pulsefire Haste and the Endgame Gear XM1 are both excellent ultra-light gaming mice. The HyperX is more lightweight and a bit more comfortable to use. Its lift-off distance is lower, meaning that the sensor shouldn’t track your movement when you’re repositioning the mouse. It also has a lot more programmable inputs considering that none of the Endgame’s buttons are programmable. That said, the Endgame has slightly better feet, and its cable is a bit more flexible. Its CPI range is also a bit wider and has less variation, and its click latency is slightly better, though the difference shouldn’t be very noticeable.
