Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 review
Under 60 grams, wireless with no latency penalty, and a shape that has become the reference point. The two things it still gets wrong.
Our pick: The default competitive mouse if the price and the shape suit you
Logitech
G Pro X Superlight 2
9.0≈$150-$160
The mouse most competitive players should start with: sub-60 grams, flagship sensor, and wireless that behaves like a cable.
Pros
- • Under 60 grams with a solid, unperforated shell
- • Lightspeed 2.4GHz wireless with no meaningful latency penalty
- • Battery life measured in weeks, and it charges while in use
Cons
- • Expensive for two side buttons and no extras
- • Symmetric shape leaves palm grippers with large hands wanting more
- • Needs Logitech's software for detailed configuration
The Superlight 2 will not surprise anyone, and that is exactly why it is the default recommendation. It is light without being fragile, wireless without a latency caveat, and shaped inoffensively enough that most players can use it. The case against it is about price and features, not capability.
| Spec | Value | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Weight | Under 60g | The spec you feel most in motion |
| Shell | Solid, no perforations | No dust ingress or flex |
| Wireless | Lightspeed 2.4GHz | Latency equivalent to wired |
| Battery | Weeks of use | Recharges while in use |
| Buttons | Two side buttons | Minimal by design |
| Price | ≈$150-$160 | The premium tier |
Why weight is the headline
Every mouse in this class tracks flawlessly, so weight and shape are what remain. Sub-60 grams reduces the effort of every movement, which matters most at low sensitivity where you sweep the mouse across the pad. The Superlight 2 achieves that without a honeycomb shell, so there is no dust ingress, no flex under grip pressure, and no compromise in how solid it feels.
Wireless without an asterisk
The latency objection to wireless mice was settled by the previous generation, and this one simply carries it forward: a dedicated 2.4GHz link with the same reporting behaviour as a cable, plus weeks of battery and USB-C charging while you play. The one practical caveat is placement — use the extension cradle, keep the receiver near the mouse, and avoid USB 3 ports and metal surfaces between them.
What it does not do
Two side buttons and no extras. No tilt wheel, no DPI clutch, no extra thumb controls. If your games need keybinds, the G502 X Plus exists for exactly that reason, and our comparison of the G502 line covers the trade. Configuration also leans on Logitech's software, so check that you are comfortable with it before buying.
It is not exciting. It is the mouse you stop thinking about, which is the highest compliment in this category.

The verdict
Buy the Superlight 2 if you want the safest competitive mouse and the price is acceptable. Choose a Viper V3 Pro if its shape fits your hand better, a G502 X Plus if you need buttons, and a G305 if you want the same wireless technology for far less money.
Questions we get
Is the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 worth it?
For competitive FPS players, yes — it remains the safest recommendation, combining sub-60-gram weight, a flagship sensor, and wireless performance equal to wired. It is less compelling if you want extra buttons, a comfortable ergonomic shape for palm grip, or a budget mouse: the G305 delivers most of the wireless experience for a third of the price.
How light is the Superlight 2?
Under 60 grams while remaining fully wireless and using a solid shell without honeycomb holes. That combination is the point: lighter mice usually achieve their weight with cut-outs or by removing the battery, and this does neither. Weight is the specification that most changes how a mouse feels in motion.
Does the Superlight 2 have latency issues wirelessly?
No. Its Lightspeed 2.4GHz connection reports at the same rate and with effectively the same latency as a wired mouse, which independent testing has repeatedly confirmed across this generation. Use the bundled extension cradle to keep the receiver close and clear of USB 3 ports, since interference is the usual cause of wireless stutter.
Should I buy the Superlight 2 or the Viper V3 Pro?
Both are excellent and the decision is shape, not performance. The Superlight 2 has a widely liked symmetrical shape and a solid reputation; the Viper V3 Pro has a slightly longer body that suits some hands better and offers comparable specifications. Handle both if you can, or buy from a retailer with easy returns.
