Our Verdict

Pulsar X2V2

VGN Dragonfly F1 Pro Max

The Pulsar X2V2 and the VGN Dragonfly F1 Pro Max are lightweight wireless gaming mice with symmetrical shapes. The Pulsar has a hump that's further towards the rear, whereas the VGN has a more centered hump, making the Pulsar more supportive for claw grip. The two mice trade blows in terms of performance, but they're still superb overall.
