    The thing with the hgiher polling rate is you can see the difference even if you can't notice it. Do you have a 240hz monitor in your studio? If you do and you move your cursor in really fast circlular motion you will see the individual cursor frames right? On 1000hz the gaps between these singular images are not even, on higher hz they get more and more even. Now I don't know where the limit is maybe its at 2000hz, would be great if you could test that.
    Main reason for me to get the GPX2 is the optical switches though and I still use the original GPW.

    The only thing that logitech missed in their new G502X and G Pro X 2 Superlight was the switch. This optical switches are far behind the Razer's last version. They must have put mechanical switches instead.

      Razer's QC is far behind like everyone else so it kind of balances out. Both are overpriced in todays market with things like Lamzu, pulsar etc in the market. Shit even Glorious has had better QC lately than razer with their DA v3 pro and Glorious makes some good mice for the price, but we all know their QC woes over the years at least they are really good with their warranty unlike Razer who will refuse to replace a keyboard because I took the keycaps off to clean it and the stem on my number 2 key pulled off with the fkn keycap. Apparently cleaning your keyboard voids warranty according to Razer.
      I recently got a Pwnage SB and while definitely expensive, I love the mouse. It's worth to me since it's practically a EC 2.5, super light and fantastic build quality. The click implementation is some of the best I've ever seen. Optical switches on mice are really just marketing, they serve no advantage over standard switches in terms of latency, consistency etc. They, in theory last longer but tbh that's not a big issue. The SB is my endgame mouse for now, 51 grams, great battery life when not on 2k which is unnoticeable in games at the cost of battery life. Stuff above 1k is really really diminishing returns, barely noticeable on high refresh panels in windows, unnoticeable in games besides when they cause performance issues like razer's 8k in some games and even 4k in a honestly pretty wide range of games. Plus SB click latency is crazy low, just as low as razers 8k optical mice, showing like I said optical serve no performance advantage over standard switches. They aren't like keyboards were you can set profiles for gaming with magnetic switches that switch from typing modes at high actuations to low actuation like .1mm.

      @@ivanborgia3384 I wasn't saying optical switches are marketing, the polling rate is, just like sensors now since they've been flawless for like a decade now. Optical switches are fine, they don't offer a performance increase like they do on keyboards however was my point. They don't reduce latency and they don't feel as consistent switch to switch. Nothing wrong with optical switches at all, but they aren't needed and they don't make mechanical switches in mice irrelevant like they and magnetic switches do in keyboards.
      Opticals can still fail electrically, that's actually typically how they do fail before their actual mechanical life span. Optical are still mechanical btw, you still have to have practically everything a traditional switch does minus the contact that actuates the switch. Technically optical have more points of failure but tbh switches failing in general isn't really an issue and in theory Opticals can last longer but mechanicals can last just as long. Not putting down opticals but they aren't game changing or even needed at all especially compared to keyboards. They don't off anything better than a traditional switch and in fact they often times feel inconsistent on the same mouse.
      Razer does well with their switches but even my DA v3 Pro feels slightly different between m1 and m2 not enough that it matters or notice it during game, but the QC on the v3 pro is dogshit so the switches are the least of the concern.

    6:00 this! Thanks Techne for mentioning the fact that almost every mouse that comes out today sadly has no right side buttons - since Logitech left them out on their original superlight, called it "pro" and sold it for more although it had less. Im not a leftie but i use the right side buttons for secondary fire or zoom, so i have a box of old g pros and vipers because new mice don't help with shooters that require these buttons.

    I think the intent was to make a product refresh for people who don't already have the first one and less about being an "upgrade." Even if they added buttons on the other side, I still think it wouldn't have been worth it from an upgrade standpoint. The addition of USB-C here is arguably the only real upgrade worthy of note. They clearly still want you to use the first one for a long time if you already have it.

    • @hobosnake1

      Exactly. I can see how the value is just not there for somebody who already owns a superlight, or a lighter more recent wireless mouse. I, on the other hand, have a wired OG Razer Viper. I'm going to see if they have a superlight 2 at best buy today while running errands. I'm probably the target for this type of mouse.

I was like "please have updated to usb-c." Honestly though I have a wireless base I throw it on and it's good when I get home from work.

    The heavier clicking of the optical switches are a real turn off. Part of what I love about the GPX1 is the crispy light clicking. I also like the more tactile scroll wheel. Going into this I was automatically going to upgrade to the GPX2 since this mouse shape fits my hand/grip best. But, after watching this I may hold off. Who cares about USB C charging when you charge it once every couple weeks?

    Completely agree with the 4k or even 8k polling rate. It is the latest tech, regardless of people think they feel it or not. It should be there. The minor improvements they made doesn't warrant buying this thing imo. This was the best they could do after 3 years?

    • @De4dSp0t
      @De4dSp0t 10 місяців тому +7

      I disagree. It annihilates your battery even at 2k and it is unnoticeable in games. You can notice even 2k in windows and doing some stuff on high refresh panels like 240hz but it's negligible and you don't notice while playing games unless it tanks performance in that game. Imo mice, especially "wireless" mice shouldn't be pushing passed 2k right now. 2k cuts your battery life in half or more from 1k and you don't notice it at all in games. Even if you do 'feel' smoother it won't provide any performance benefits since your body can't even come close to taking advantage of 1k let alone anything higher.
      It's fine if you want to push it in wired mice but push it in wireless mice when 8k you're charging the damn thing in like 6 hours is crazy. You don't get a full day out of 4k and 2k you get about 2-3 days, obviously this varies some but it's about par for the course from my personal experience. Compare that to 1k where you can get like 1-2 weeks of battery life, not only prolonging the life of the mouse by limiting battery degradation but keeping you off the wire as much as possible for no real world benefit besides to say "haha im on 4k/8k plebs" except all it does is kill your wireless mouse faster and you'll get no performance benefit from it. Razer should work on making a mouse that doesn't have massive QC issues within a month of use before worrying about marketing with high polling rates. Polling rates are basically turning into mice sensors, where people bitch about it not being THE LATEST 3395 when the 3395 had issues with wireless mice and battery life but has no advantage over a 3370. Shit it has no advantage over a like 3330 except for a big DPI number! OH BOI! Same thing with polling rate, offers you nothing except killing your mouse's lifespan but OH BOI IT'S A BIGGER NUMBER REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
      Take it from me who owns far too many mice and have used each of them for at least several months. I notice nothing in game going from 8k to 1k, do notice it around windows and some stuff like that but nothing that actually benefits me in real world usage. You sure as hell notice the battery life, degradation and when the game doesn't like it though.
      I wish mice makers would do what keyboard do with their on the fly profiles, make it so the mouse will in game swaps to higher polling rate and out of games even alt tabbing you can drop it to w/e you want, like 500hz to prolong battery life when you don't need higher rates. I don't know why none of them have done this yet when keyboards have had it for actuation points for years now with the magnetic/optical switches. That makes more sense than the dumb push for higher polling rates just to use as marketing for suckers that think it does anything except kill their $150+ mouse faster for them.

      @De4dSp0t I disagree. Both of my 4k mice feel smoother when running in 4k versus 1k. It could be placebo, but I don't think so.
      Regardless, if you don't want to run it in 4k or even 2k, then run it in 1k then and save the battery. No one is forcing you to run it in 4k. All I am saying is there are people who want that higher polling rate, and it is becoming the standard now regardless of you being obviously bitter about it. At this day and age, and the fact all of these other manufacturers are releasing 4k polling rate at significantly less cost, there is no reason at all that it should not be available on a $150 flagship mouse from Logitech. This is just greed, plain and simple. Terrible release

The improvement in the sensor is really noticeable to me, and a very worthy upgrade from the Superlight 1! Make sure you have the settings right to enjoy the 2000hz goodness and away you go. It's the same form factor with a much better sensor then the v1, trust me. And all the fuss about the clicks, man, I don't get it at all. It's like there has to be something people can complain about to get the views and the likes. I start to distrust more and more reviewers these days.

    Polling rate is not about feeling it. Its more about the theoretical advantage. That said, to feel it you need at least 240hz, use 1600dpi+ and have a CPU that can handle the polling. Seen in other Benchmarks, the 2khz implementation however, seems to be way better than the 4khz implementation of most mice except razer.
