Logitech's next gaming mouse will have haptic-based clicks, adjustable actuation, and rapid trigger — new G Pro X2 Superstrike will land at $180

Logitech's latest addition to its ultra-light wireless gaming mouse lineup has something no other mouse has: an "innovative blend of inductive analog sensing and real-time click haptics." What this means is that Logitech's new G Pro X2 Superstrike mouse will feature an analog system that allows you to adjust the point at which your mouse switches actuate and still get the real-time feedback of a physical "click," thanks to haptics.

Logitech's new mouse will feature its new "Superstrike" technology, which involves a "bespoke Haptic Inductive Trigger System (HITS)" that "combines adjustable actuation point and rapid trigger capabilities with an innovative haptics system."

While we've seen analog switches and adjustable actuation a lot in the best gaming keyboards, this is the first time we'll see it in a gaming mouse. This is because gamers want their mice to click exactly when the button actuates, and you can't have this without something like HITS, which changes the "click" to match the new actuation point.

According to Logitech, the mouse will feature 10 selectable actuation steps and five rapid trigger reset levels over 0.6mm of click travel, which seems like a fairly detailed amount of fine-tuning. But the brand does point out that the mouse is designed for professional athletes, so this makes sense.

Haptic Inductive Trigger System aside, the Pro X2 Superstrike will feature Logitech's latest Hero 2 optical sensor, which has a maximum resolution of 44,000 DPI and a maximum speed of 888 IPS and can handle up to 88 G's of acceleration. (This is the same sensor found in Logitech's G Pro X Superlight 2 Dex.)

It will also feature up to an 8,000 Hz polling rate and offer up to 90 hours of battery life, albeit not at the same time. Specs-wise, the mouse will weigh 65g (2.29oz) and measure 4.92 x 2.5 x 1.57 inches (125 x 63.5 x 40mm), which makes it identical to the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 in size and shape and about 5g heavier in weight.

Logitech says the Pro X2 Superstrike will hit shelves in Q1 of 2026 for $179.99, so we'll probably see it showcased at CES 2026.

    In that they are both completely accurate.
    sports: physical activity engaged in for pleasure
    athlete: a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina
    Guess what, computer games require significant agility and stamina, and are games, and are engaged in for pleasure.

    That new mouse is such a marketing gimmick trying to use the "RapidFire" from the keyboards. Seriously who the F will notice the difference between 0.6mm and 0.5mm of actuation... it's as dumb as people that think they can spot the difference between 8000Hz and 4000Hz or even just 2000Hz! All the 8K does is empty your wallet and battery crazy fast. The sweetspot is 2Khz, anything more is for people with mental issues.

    So that new Logitech will cost even more, yet be 5g heavier with the same shape, same sensor, same battery capacity, WTF?! I still have a "Superlight 2" and since I switched 2 weeks ago to the new (Asus Harpe II Ace) of 47g instead of 57g, I can already say it's a GPW killer. Same mouse but better on everything!

    It's a Logitech mouse with silent switches... and a simulated click to coincide with when the button actuates.

    How can a $180 2026 mouse somehow be less impressive than the last Logitech haptic mouse from 2000 in the $39.95 iFeel? That mouse used Playstation-style force-feedback (that is, just a vibrating motor) to let you feel where the edges of clickable things like buttons, icons or window borders were. It wasn't too useful back then when everything GUI was very 3D with shadows, but might've been later on after everything went to a modern flat design where you can't even see what is a button or tab, just to be stylish. If it vibrates, it's clickable!
