Our Verdict

Pulsar X2H v3

Scyrox V8

The Scyrox V8 and the Pulsar X2H v3 are lightweight wireless gaming mice. They have similar shapes optimized for claw grip with high rear humps and wide rear ends that narrow at the middle, but the Pulsar (in 'size 2' medium) is bigger and better suited for larger hands. Otherwise, the Scyrox is lighter and has better overall raw performance.
