Gaming hardware maker Logitech has unveiled the Pro X2 Superstrike, a wireless mouse that introduces analogue click sensors and customisable haptic feedback to the competitive gaming market. Priced at A$280, the device marks a shift away from traditional microswitch based designs that have dominated gaming mice for years.

At the centre of the Superstrike is Logitech’s Haptic Inductive Trigger System, or HITS. Instead of using physical microswitches to register clicks, the mouse relies on induction based sensors. Logitech claims this reduces click latency by up to 30 milliseconds, a difference that may appeal to esports players where reaction times are critical.

The new sensors also allow users to adjust actuation and reset points for the main buttons. Through Logitech’s G Hub software, players can select from ten actuation levels and five rapid trigger reset options. This means the mouse can be configured to register a click with minimal pressure, or require a firmer press to avoid accidental inputs.

One of the most notable changes is the replacement of mechanical switches with haptic feedback. When a click is registered, internal hardware delivers a tactile response designed to replicate the feel and sound of a physical switch. Users can choose from six intensity settings, increase feedback for a more pronounced click, or reduce it for quieter operation. Removing haptics altogether results in near silent clicks, although with less physical confirmation.

The Superstrike retains the symmetrical shape seen in previous Logitech Pro models, including the Pro Wireless and Pro X Superlight series. While the exterior design will be familiar to existing users, the underlying technology represents a more significant update.

Performance specifications include Logitech’s HERO 2 sensor, capable of tracking at over 888 inches per second, with 88 G acceleration and sensitivity up to 44,000 DPI. The mouse supports polling rates up to 8 kHz through the company’s LIGHTSPEED wireless technology, which is designed to deliver wired level responsiveness even in crowded tournament environments.

Battery life is rated at up to 90 hours on a single charge via USB C. The device is also compatible with Logitech’s POWERPLAY wireless charging system, sold separately.

According to Logitech, more than 100 professional players across teams such as NAVI, G2 and GEN.G were involved in development testing. A prototype version was reportedly used during a major esports event earlier this year.

While previous advances in gaming mice have focused on lighter materials and higher polling rates, the Superstrike’s emphasis on adjustable analogue input and haptic customisation suggests a broader shift in how click performance is engineered.
