Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 DEX Gaming Mouse Review
Bottom Line
Choose the DEX if you want an ultra-light right-handed FPS mouse with excellent wireless responsiveness, sensor tracking, and battery life. Skip it if you need left-handed comfort, crisp side buttons, slick stock skates, or strong value.
Best for
Best for right-handed FPS and competitive players who want a very light wireless mouse with strong sensor performance, long battery life, and a supportive ergonomic shell. It also suits users already comfortable with Logitech G Hub and Powerplay.
Not for
Not for left-handed users, fingertip-first players with smaller hands, or anyone who needs many buttons, Bluetooth, a built-in DPI switch, or premium stock skates. Value-focused buyers may also find the price difficult to justify.
Verdict
The Logitech G PRO X Superlight 2 DEX comes across as a high-performance, right-handed FPS mouse built around speed, low weight, and a more supportive ergonomic shell. Reviewers repeatedly praised its Hero 2 tracking, wireless responsiveness, battery life, sturdy build, and main clicks, and many found the new shape more comfortable than the standard Superlight style. The tradeoff is that the same minimalist esports focus leaves little room for extra controls: side buttons, stock skates, cable quality, Bluetooth absence, and DPI/profile switching drew recurring complaints. Fit also depends heavily on hand size and grip, with palm and relaxed claw users faring better than fingertip users. Its performance is excellent, but the premium price makes the compromises harder to ignore.

Negative 1.5-2.44 (7%)
Pros highlights
-
Weight was one of the clearest strengths, repeatedly described as feather-light, ultra-light, or impressively low for its size.
-
Shape comfort split reviewers: many loved the ergonomic, right-handed shape, while several found it too bulky, awkward, or hand-size dependent.
-
Battery life was widely praised as long-lasting, often exceeding expectations, though high polling rates were noted to drain it faster.
-
FPS gaming suitability was strong overall, with praise for shooters, responsiveness, and control; negative reports centered on hand-size/shape fit rather than sensor performance.
-
Switch feel was mostly praised for crisp, tactile Lightforce clicks, though some reviewers found them inconsistent, loud, or merely satisfactory.
-
Wireless performance was consistently excellent, with reviewers reporting fast, stable, lag-free, high-performance wireless use.
Cons highlights
-
Side buttons were the most divisive control: some found them easy and great in game, while many criticized mushiness, high placement, or extra travel.
-
Value for money was the most common strategic concern because reviewers liked the performance but repeatedly called the price high or premium.
-
Profile switching was a recurring weakness because reviewers missed a physical DPI/profile button and disliked leaving games to change settings.
-
Fingertip comfort was generally weak because the larger hump and body interfered with finger micro-adjustments, with only one reviewer finding it workable.
-
Programmable button evidence was mixed: G Hub assignment was useful, but the five-button layout and lack of extra controls limited flexibility.
-
Click noise was a caveat: main clicks were often loud or high-pitched, though some found the noise acceptable or preference-based.
