Why it's a great gift
Competitive mice are personal, but this shell is the closest thing to a consensus pick: 60 g, no honeycomb holes, clean HERO 2 tracking, and up to 95 hours a charge.
Is this the right gift?
- Great for: FPS players chasing lower weight.
- Great for: right-handed gamers who like a neutral, medium shape.
- Great for: anyone still dragging a cable across the pad.
- Skip if: they need Bluetooth, a smaller fit, or a grid of thumb buttons.
The verdict
The safe pick in a picky category
Give it to the shooter fan who loves this classic shell — knowing it pairs by USB receiver, not Bluetooth, and original-Superlight owners may shrug.
Why it works
- ✓ 60 g in a solid, hole-free shell
- ✓ Accurate HERO 2 sensor with onboard memory
- ✓ Up to 95 hours per USB-C charge
Tradeoffs
- × No Bluetooth — LIGHTSPEED receiver only
- × Five buttons; not a productivity mouse
- × Modest step up from the original Superlight

Before you buy
- Confirm it's the base Pro X Superlight 2 — the DEX, 2c, SE and Superstrike variants suit different grips and budgets.
- The LIGHTSPEED receiver and USB-C cable ship in the box; 8,000Hz polling needs a G HUB firmware update first.
- Left-handers beware: both thumb buttons sit on the left side only.
Quick answers
Does it work over Bluetooth?
No — wireless play uses the included USB receiver, with wired USB-C as backup.
Will they notice 8,000Hz polling?
Maybe not — it depends on the game, PC and display. Higher rates also drain the battery faster.
Worth it if they own the original Superlight?
A refinement, not a revolution — USB-C, newer switches, a better sensor. Happy owners might prefer a new shape instead.
