Thanks a bunch for doing this review! Like many others, I’m currently using a GPX Superlight 1 and it was very interesting to hear about the subtle differences. I also enjoyed seeing some of the enhancements to the software. Moving two mice at once to tune the GPX to an identical DPI of another mouse is just genius. Keep it up the great work, dude.
been using the superlight for a month. it was almost perfect. just got skates from XRAY pads that fit it, ditched the stock logitech ones, and now the mouse is absolutely flawless for me.
I am really glad that Logitech didn't change much, i always wanted to try the Superlight, but i swore to myself to never buy something with Micro B, so the original Superlight was out of question. But after god nows how many years i can finally* buy it. *Once it got a bit cheaper 160€ is too much for my taste.
Micro B wasnt as bad here though considering itd only be plugged up once every 2-3 weeks and it has its own secure holder. I definitely wouldve expected trigger faults before charging issues at that rate
Something to know is the Logitech PTFE feet are usually a thin layer with a foam layer beneath it (that's the case on both my MX Master and G303 Shroud). If you switch to something like Corepad feet it'll feel quite a bit faster.
If you don't own a Superlight and were intrested in getting into it, buy the Superlight 2. If you by accident break your Superlight 1, buy the Superlight 2. If you own a Superlight 1, wait for a Superlight 3.
If you own a superlight you will eventually have to buy a superlight 2. Not because i believe is a worthy upgrade, i have a zowie EC-CW, but because superlight 3 might never happen, and if it does, it will take more than 5 years, unless logitech wants to do what Iphone does, rebranding the exact same mouse over and over. Think about it, superlight is still a g pro, which came out in 2016, and then after 4 years they released superlight. Now we have superlight 2, which changed some things but not much. If they didn't changed that much with superlight 2, it probably means they didn't want to because the superlight was already a good mouse everyone liked, so they just fixed some things and made superlight 2, which probably is, the last superlight. I think logitech will focus on a new mouse from now on. They completed their job with G PRO.
just buy a superlight, avoid the 2. The clicks are horrendous. Mine has severe post travel on m1 and the stiffness different between the clicks is also more inconsistent than any other mouse ive ever used by a large margin. Logitech is not using any form of qa so I would recommend waiting until they get through a few batches to drive up consistency
Surface area doesnt lead to friction (it depends on mass, gravity and coefficient of friction), so less contact area wont make it faster. It could actually lead to worse performance since the feet will degrade more over time.
@@Evan-xs8ts that’s not how physics works. Friction is a force dependent on mass gravity and coefficient of friction. This means that no matter what area is in contact with the mousepad, it will have the same amount of friction. If you change the mass it will result in a change of friction.
@@AlejandroGonzalez-eh3ji greater area = higher coefficient of friction. On a glass pad, you would be right, but on cloth, the coefficient changes with the size of skates.
@@Evan-xs8ts Nope. Physics 101, the coefficient of friction is affected by material, mass, and gravity, not by surface area. According to the equation F(friction)=μ⋅N, for friction to increase the mass must also increase and vice versa. Going back to the "material, mass, and gravity" part, the coefficient of friction (μ) is affected by the materials of the interacting surfaces and the normal force (N) is affected by mass and gravity. This rule is devoidant of surface area and therefore surface area is devoidant of friction.
I understand the disappointment of minimal changes, but if Logitech feels like it’s a great product they shouldn’t completely change it, just improve it. I’d love to see more new mice from them, but im hooked because of wireless charging so im here for life.
@@yoshi555king Yup I'm sure if price point is your only criteria there are many better options out there. For me 4k polling rate on a piece of cheap garbage is meaningless. I refuse to use any mouse that I have to charge, and I hate having a cable on my mouse, so I use logitech's wireless charging system. I paid over 300$ USD for the pad and a 902 and it was worth every single penny to me. Not to mention that peripherals are incredibly personal so what you buy should be what feels good and works for you.
@@Johndoe-lx8sh I just feel like they fucked up with the update with lack of 4k, coating and click issues and way overpriced. Most Chinese mice ain’t good I agree, still there’s Razer and many other good ones like Lamzu and Endgame Gear. I couldn’t use a mudpad for life. Currently running multiple Artisans
@randomfrankp The "2nd click" you experience with the Superlight 2 is when you click right behind or right next to the scroll wheel towards the middle seam with the left and right mouse buttons. If you press the buttons hard enough you will experience that "2nd click" to which it's because the plastic pieces are popping out towards the left and right sidewalls.
That's weird but sort of helpful to know. I have a Pulsar X2V2 and it too has optical switches which I though will not have double clicking issues but I have experienced it once and I didn't know why and couldn't recreate it again.
2:30 Friction isn't related to surface area, it's proportional to reaction force and the coefficient of friction (so basically how much force is pressing the mouse down and how rough your mousepad / skates are) I agree though that the default skates are pretty bad, a shame they didn't upgrade them from the original GPX
Frictional resistance and contact area are related. What is not related is the 'apparent contact area'. This is Coulomb-Amonton's law, which is valid when friction occurs between smooth objects. For example, if two steel plates of the same size are stacked on top of each other, at first they seem to be in contact on the entire surface, but if you zoom in on the contact area, you will see that there are small roughnesses, and that they ride up on each other and bite into each other. In other words, these unevennesses are the true contact 'points' and are directly related to friction. The contact point and the contact area from a macroscopic point of view are not the same, so "frictional resistance is not proportional to the apparent contact area".
Good review. Im sticking with my Suoerlight 1. USB-c would have ren nice 3 sears ago, but I still have a micro USB cable lying around. Also, 2k pollong rate is oretty much a placebo at this point.
hello y'all, i recently (yesterday 22-7-2024) bought my gpx superlight 2 from mediamarkt (almost the same as microcenter just bit more alround tech). and my gpxs 2 has the option to get 4k wireless poling rate, they advertise in the g hub about 55 hours battery life (from 100%-0%). But one thing to note here is that i have done a firmware update on the mouse itself and the dongle when i started using it it just promped me to do it and i did it. I have used my g502 hero since 4 years now and once had a firmware update which unlocked more dpi options (higher) for that mouse. the gpx superlight 2 on the other hand didn't get anymore than 32.000 dpi which was advertised so not improved with firmware updates.
5:17 every single time I go to one tap someone in cs 2 bullets fire thanks to this, ngl unsure if thats a bad thing as the way I see it my odds of tapping someone just doubled, so bug or feature?
11:10 I think it makes sense for Logitech to keep the design going with incremental changes. Just like the G502 family, they are keeping a successful design very close to the original.
Let's be honest here, the remake was in the works because logitech had to add usbc to it to comply with EU's new law. Now just adding usbc to it would be a major kick in the nuts as they swore up and down that they "specifically chose micro usb because it was lighter". Crazy how they add usbc and some more changes and it's now even almost 4grams lighter. So they slapped in a new sensor, made it just 2k which honestly I'm not mad at because 4k is still a bit of a gimmick unless you have a crazy high refresh rate and the fps to match. Some games don't even properly support 4k either. The mouse still has great battery life and they tried out their new switches which...aren't great, but not pure dogass either. It's not the ideal upgrade, but it's not the worst case senerio either and I'm okay with it. If you are looking to replace your current gpx if its been through the ringer over the past couple years, I think it's worth the upgrade. Otherwise, get the v1 gpx for cheap.
Only issue I've had with my superlight is my right click just stopped working (thanks League). To my knowledge, it might of been a lemon since I haven't seen anyone else having this issue. Really was looking to get away from Logitech due to the frustration of the right click issue but all in all my other Logitech mouses have been fine.
i bought the superlight 2 and im happy very happy abbout this mous. i had the pulsar x2mini but it got double click issues and at the same time the superlight 2 came out so i imidiatly wanted to buy that. But i have a lil problem. I want the Red superlight, i want it so badly. And it is like 50€ cheaper too. But i dont know if i really should downgrade from superligt 2 to superligt 1just beecause of the color.... so idk if i will regred downgrading... idk ill wait till primeday next week and see if the red superlight 1 will be on sale, if so i will give it a try i think.
More surface area means more friction? Lol. Dude, asi a physicist. Lower surface (for the same force/weight) means HIGHER PRESSURE. This means the mouse will dig deeper in the mouse pad, and face MORE mechanical friction due to the elastic deformation of the mouse pad. If you use the older G Pro Wireless with the smaller pads, it glides with more difficulty.
@@Fartcity2004Smaller surface area on a mouse increases pressure, causing the mouse to sink into the pad and create more friction, making it harder to move. Larger surface area reduces pressure and makes it glide more easily.
Imagine tiptoeing for 5 minutes. All your body weight is on your toes, after a while all that weight on your toes will take its toll and hurt. Now imagine 5 minutes flat footed, more surface area for your weight to be dissipated that means feeties less hurties 🤣🤣 make sense?
I still use my Superlight which I bought 2 years ago and still performs like new. Just changed the feet and that's it. But if it will stop working the next mouse definitely will be the second generation. It makes sense here in Europe. You will get an official 2-year warranty, it perfectly works with Mac and Logi understands, that a major part of gamers will not feel and see the diff between 2K and 4-8K polling rates.
I switched back to my Razer Deathadder v3 Pro. Superlight 2 is too small for me and im getting a little pain after long gaming sessions in my hand. Not that comfortable with big hands
It's good to hear they upgraded the switches. I own the G Pro X superlight 1 and after 2 years the left mouse button double clicks. It's basically a defective mouse now unless you want to solder new switches in.
same! I saw that this mouse fixes the double clicking issue the previous logitech mice had, im wondering if I should just buy this one because my mouse has been doubl clicking in the left/right click along with the left side buttons did you buy the superlight 2?
@@nahhitsnotnys funny you should mention this. I reached out to logitech since then and they recommended that I clean the sensor under the mouse button. That actually fixed the issue for me. They also gave me a 30% discount code so hey if that doesn’t work for you just tell them your problem and they’ll probably do the same
@@whats_skills i have the same mouse and mine after 2 and a half years its jsut stops workign soemtimes the m1 and m2 buttions jsut dont work il be palying or using t hem and then for a good 5 second they stop working soemtimes happens a lot sometimes less but its getting worse everyday and the only way to get it to work is to either waited like 10 seconds or smash it om my table and this isreally fustrating becvause it happens nearly every few mintues now sometimes seconds apart
@randomfrankp Sad part on Logi part. I got a GPX Superlight 2 and found paired with Powerplay pad the mouse can only do 1000 Hz rate, contacted support, and they told me the PP needs a firmware update that is not in the works. So if you plan on using the 2000 Hz, you can't use PP mouse pad.
more contact surface area doesnt mean more friction. Only contact force and friction coefficient. Basically mass and materials of mouse feet and mousepad.
Thank you so much for this review! I currently use a GPX Wireless (yes, not even a Superlight 1) and I've had this mouse since release and it has served me well since then. but the pads at the bottom of the mouse (no idea what they are called) have worn out badly, leaving black/gray marks on my white mouse pad. So after your review I instantly ordered a GPX Superlight 2 in white! :D
Bro you don’t have to buy a whole new mouse if the pads wear out, there are hundreds of different mouse skates on the market most of them being an upgrade to the stock ones.
I have the Pulsar X2V2 and find the mouse buttons to be quite stiff. I had the regular GPX Superlight before and the clicks were a lot better. How do the clicks of the GPX2 compare between the regular GPX Superlight and the X2V2?
this mouse has ruined other mice for me. I've been using the v1 for a while now. I have larger hands so after a while my hand starts hurting. So I've been on the hunt for a XL version of the superlight because now I can't use any mouse over 65g in weight. I need Logitech to make an XL version of this for peeps with bear paws for hands.
I can't prove it, but I heard years ago that their double click issue was related to dry climate and static buildup. I live in a rather humid climate and never had double clicking issues with my logitech mice, from the original g5 to the g500(been away from logitech for a bit).
All Razer models I had were uncomfortable, not to mention expensive, and are now accumulating dust. Logitech mouses are the best shape they look dull and ugly, but their grip, precision, and connectivity is very good, plus they never make your hand or fingers hurt.
Just got my tiger ice skates for my superlight 2 and it feels so much better. Not sure if the factory skates are just that bad or if its worse since I use a skypad, but it's pretty criminal 😅 Not a fan of how my clicks are still either, but the shape of the mouse suits me well and the new skates feel great so im still using it
not only did they do the bare minimum to upgrade the mouse but they also changed the mouse feet pattern/shape just so that you could order gpx 2 skates instead... out of any appearance changes it was the skates. I also actually think the GPX 2 could've gotten more sales if they did more than the bare minimum because for most GPX1 owners they're being told the upgrade is not worth the jump if you already own the first gen.
Just ordered a new super light 1 seen to many ppl say for double the price it ain’t worth it. Got mine for £80 not worth the 135.99 they asking for, for the SL2
I recently got a used superlight 2 on amazon and the seller put a superlight 1 in the superlight 2 box and it really ticked me off bc ive been waiting for weeks trying to get the superlight 2 just for it to be the wrong one
Meh, I'll stick with my G305 and rechargeable AAs. I get a literal month between battery replacements, meaning I only have to charge the rechargeables 3x a year, and it takes under a minute to swap out batteries and be back to not worrying about cords. The thing with Logitech seems to be that you will have an AWESOME mouse if you win the QC lottery. If you don't, you will have a messed up device within the first 2-3 months of use. This also applies to their other tech. I know some people who went through 6 G305s over the course of a year because of double-click issues, while mine has lasted over that year with no issues. One of those people is an IRL friend who I KNOW doesn't abuse their mouse or slamclick, so it really does seem to be QC lottery.
Change my mind, the Superlight 2 is just an updated Superlight to keep it relevant with all the other features that other companies have standardized. If the original had USB C they wouldn’t have needed to release the 2 imo.
I'm in a market for silent gaming mouse, any suggestions? i got a bunch of logitech gaming mouse but non of them are silent (and i don't like to switch to silent switches for my mouse as it'd void the warranty)
Bros copying me. I'm upgrading from g502 hero wired to a gen 2 superlightspeed. Thanks bro for the confirmation ❤️. Nearly got a g502 X lightspeed. But I found amazon had 1 of these in stock at 30% off and the same price as the one I nearly got
I bought one on sale recently, got a good deal. People on reddit hated me for not going for a chinese mouse... I prefer Logitech and the solid software.
Would you recommend this mouse for me? I've had 4 Steelseries Rival 3 wireless and I'm actually done buying that. Low longevity and their RMA system is trash. I want to go for a more expensive mouse I'm just a general gamer, Hunt,Rust,Dead By Daylight and almost no FPS games.
One thing I hate about my OG Superlight is that the finish started wearing off on frequent contact points, and started peeling away after only about a month of use... drives me crazy. I've never had a mouse do that. Oh also thanks for finally getting on board with USB C? Oh and thanks for making my spare glass skates null and void. SMH Logitech...
This mouse after a 1 month or so has become my main. I am currently using it with a fingertip grip and can feel my shots being so accurate and consistent
Nice video. I really wish they would give the G 703 a Superlight update. I used so many Logitech mouses, and found this to be the perfect shape for a hand. The shape of the thumb buttons and the space under them for the thumb is perfect, which is important for flicks to the right, to not hit the buttons accidentally. Let's be real, a symmetric mouse can't be the top notch shape, since a hand isn't.
the scroll on the previous version or the 2? I'm using the older version and the scroll is legendary garbage. it scrolls without using the wheel or when you use it's a 50/50 it will go the opposite direction.
It’s definitely totally different if you take a few weeks switching back and fourth between the too. It feels way more accurate and the clicks are perfect after the switches get a little break in. They feel better than the huano pink dots I’m using on my GXP. Lethal has the new feet for the 2 now. If you wanna try hybrid feet, try this: Amolite glass front pad Core pad rear and puck Leave the sensor factory I take 2000 grit sandpaper and swirl sand the glass to give it some stopping power which is nonexistent if you don’t. The front glass gives you the least start resistance friction when you move the mouse but the ptfe leaves a bit of control in the back.
Thanks a bunch for doing this review! Like many others, I’m currently using a GPX Superlight 1 and it was very interesting to hear about the subtle differences.

I still use my Superlight which I bought 2 years ago and still performs like new. Just changed the feet and that's it. But if it will stop working the next mouse definitely will be the second generation. It makes sense here in Europe. You will get an official 2-year warranty, it perfectly works with Mac and Logi understands, that a major part of gamers will not feel and see the diff between 2K and 4-8K polling rates.
I will use the Superlight for years to come... since I bought a backup one for 60% of the price on last years Black Friday sale😅
I switched back to my Razer Deathadder v3 Pro.
Superlight 2 is too small for me and im getting a little pain after long gaming sessions in my hand.
Not that comfortable with big hands
9:30 are you sure you have a fingertip/clawgrip hybrid gripstyle? for me it looks just like a fingertip style
I haven't watched you in a while (few years) you're looking good man 👍😊 whatever you're doing, keep it up and look after yourself ✌️
Great vid!!! Make sure you replace the stock feet on the SL 2, i've already done that, the stock skates are not good
It's good to hear they upgraded the switches. I own the G Pro X superlight 1 and after 2 years the left mouse button double clicks. It's basically a defective mouse now unless you want to solder new switches in.
same! I saw that this mouse fixes the double clicking issue the previous logitech mice had, im wondering if I should just buy this one because my mouse has been doubl clicking in the left/right click along with the left side buttons
did you buy the superlight 2?
@@nahhitsnotnys funny you should mention this. I reached out to logitech since then and they recommended that I clean the sensor under the mouse button. That actually fixed the issue for me. They also gave me a 30% discount code so hey if that doesn’t work for you just tell them your problem and they’ll probably do the same
@@whats_skills i have the same mouse and mine after 2 and a half years its jsut stops workign soemtimes the m1 and m2 buttions jsut dont work il be palying or using t hem and then for a good 5 second they stop working soemtimes happens a lot sometimes less but its getting worse everyday and the only way to get it to work is to either waited like 10 seconds or smash it om my table and this isreally fustrating becvause it happens nearly every few mintues now sometimes seconds apart
@randomfrankp Sad part on Logi part. I got a GPX Superlight 2 and found paired with Powerplay pad the mouse can only do 1000 Hz rate, contacted support, and they told me the PP needs a firmware update that is not in the works. So if you plan on using the 2000 Hz, you can't use PP mouse pad.
Good to know!
more contact surface area doesnt mean more friction. Only contact force and friction coefficient. Basically mass and materials of mouse feet and mousepad.
How do I use the set up software. How do I set up to change the dpi with a macro / button. Dpi up and dpi down. Thanks man
Thank you so much for this review! I currently use a GPX Wireless (yes, not even a Superlight 1) and I've had this mouse since release and it has served me well since then. but the pads at the bottom of the mouse (no idea what they are called) have worn out badly, leaving black/gray marks on my white mouse pad. So after your review I instantly ordered a GPX Superlight 2 in white! :D
Bro you don’t have to buy a whole new mouse if the pads wear out, there are hundreds of different mouse skates on the market most of them being an upgrade to the stock ones.
Glad to hear that my mouse is gonna last long (just bought the GPX2 ) considering my model o only lasted one year before the scroll wheel broke.
LOL Apple user?
@@cesaru3619 why?
I have the Pulsar X2V2 and find the mouse buttons to be quite stiff. I had the regular GPX Superlight before and the clicks were a lot better. How do the clicks of the GPX2 compare between the regular GPX Superlight and the X2V2?
this mouse has ruined other mice for me. I've been using the v1 for a while now. I have larger hands so after a while my hand starts hurting. So I've been on the hunt for a XL version of the superlight because now I can't use any mouse over 65g in weight. I need Logitech to make an XL version of this for peeps with bear paws for hands.
I can't prove it, but I heard years ago that their double click issue was related to dry climate and static buildup. I live in a rather humid climate and never had double clicking issues with my logitech mice, from the original g5 to the g500(been away from logitech for a bit).
No, that's not the culprit
All Razer models I had were uncomfortable, not to mention expensive, and are now accumulating dust.
Logitech mouses are the best shape they look dull and ugly, but their grip, precision, and connectivity is very good, plus they never make your hand or fingers hurt.
if i’m going from the g pro wireless, would i worth getting the super light 1 or should i just go for the super light 2?
2
I have the wireless pro which is ambidextrous and has a dpi button on bottom for quick swap. I don’t like how this one doesn’t have that button.
Just got my tiger ice skates for my superlight 2 and it feels so much better. Not sure if the factory skates are just that bad or if its worse since I use a skypad, but it's pretty criminal 😅
Not a fan of how my clicks are still either, but the shape of the mouse suits me well and the new skates feel great so im still using it
would have been nice to have some sort of take on the lightness which ig was the main selling point of superlight 2
How do you think this mouse compares with the Razer Deathadder V3 Pro?
Have had the super light for almost 2 years now and it’s just so amazing like have no problems it’s just a perfect mouse
Yea I got it as well on day 1 in our country. It will be 3 years in few months
I feel the same i love it
perfect like your skin
not only did they do the bare minimum to upgrade the mouse but they also changed the mouse feet pattern/shape just so that you could order gpx 2 skates instead... out of any appearance changes it was the skates. I also actually think the GPX 2 could've gotten more sales if they did more than the bare minimum because for most GPX1 owners they're being told the upgrade is not worth the jump if you already own the first gen.
im about to get my first pc, coming from ps5 to pc and im thinking about getting this mouse as my first one, man I cannot wait.
i been waiting for this video
Got mine for 100$ this past 11.11 promo, and this is my 1st Superlight.
I am in need of a new mouse but should I get the g pro wireless x superlight or the g pro wireless x superlight 2?
Just ordered a new super light 1 seen to many ppl say for double the price it ain’t worth it. Got mine for £80 not worth the 135.99 they asking for, for the SL2
Lookin for a Superlight 1 on the used market now that early adopters are getting rid of the older ones!
I recently got a used superlight 2 on amazon and the seller put a superlight 1 in the superlight 2 box and it really ticked me off bc ive been waiting for weeks trying to get the superlight 2 just for it to be the wrong one
Meh, I'll stick with my G305 and rechargeable AAs. I get a literal month between battery replacements, meaning I only have to charge the rechargeables 3x a year, and it takes under a minute to swap out batteries and be back to not worrying about cords.
The thing with Logitech seems to be that you will have an AWESOME mouse if you win the QC lottery. If you don't, you will have a messed up device within the first 2-3 months of use. This also applies to their other tech. I know some people who went through 6 G305s over the course of a year because of double-click issues, while mine has lasted over that year with no issues. One of those people is an IRL friend who I KNOW doesn't abuse their mouse or slamclick, so it really does seem to be QC lottery.
Do the two mouse buttons clash into each other when clicked at the same time
Change my mind, the Superlight 2 is just an updated Superlight to keep it relevant with all the other features that other companies have standardized. If the original had USB C they wouldn’t have needed to release the 2 imo.
What mouse do you personally use for photo and video editing?
I'm in a market for silent gaming mouse, any suggestions? i got a bunch of logitech gaming mouse but non of them are silent (and i don't like to switch to silent switches for my mouse as it'd void the warranty)
blessed myself with one after i got a good deal on it. also needed a upgrade from my wired g502 that was starting to fail on me
Bros copying me. I'm upgrading from g502 hero wired to a gen 2 superlightspeed. Thanks bro for the confirmation ❤️. Nearly got a g502 X lightspeed. But I found amazon had 1 of these in stock at 30% off and the same price as the one I nearly got
Worth upgrading from a razer deathadder chroma?
I bought one on sale recently, got a good deal. People on reddit hated me for not going for a chinese mouse... I prefer Logitech and the solid software.
I’m the #1 g pro fan and I didn’t even know this existed until today
It's still bad huh 😂😂😂😂
Logitech website said it has 8k polling rates are they updated this mouse since this video came out?
Is it nVidia Reflex compatible? I am unable to find this info anywhere :-(
Half of my left mouse button broke in the middle on the regular G pro after 3 yrs or so, should I buy this or just buy new buttons?
New buttons
I bought Deathadder v3 pro and I'm super happy with it.
hopefully this one doesn't have so many cases of the scroll wheel starting to scroll in the wrong direction
Can you just leave the wire in for Constant charge?
Did I see the price on the razer mini SE right? holy $290
Would you recommend this mouse for me? I've had 4 Steelseries Rival 3 wireless and I'm actually done buying that. Low longevity and their RMA system is trash. I want to go for a more expensive mouse I'm just a general gamer, Hunt,Rust,Dead By Daylight and almost no FPS games.
I hope Logitech is going to release an updated version of those clicks in the later batches because that's a no go for me as it is
love my original, but im going to stay patient and wait for it to go on sale.
Did the charging speed improve since now it uses USB-C?
Obviously
@@cipratac17 Did you buy the new one? How did the charging time improved?
guys if i use this at my office, it will bother the others by click sound ? or its has same click sound as ordinary office mouses?
Not a noticeable amount louder
One thing I hate about my OG Superlight is that the finish started wearing off on frequent contact points, and started peeling away after only about a month of use... drives me crazy. I've never had a mouse do that. Oh also thanks for finally getting on board with USB C? Oh and thanks for making my spare glass skates null and void. SMH Logitech...
Same. Have 2 super lights. Both started peeling 2 weeks in at the thumb area
I'm surprised people report on this mouse having double clicks, even though it's an optical "hybrid" mouse
This mouse after a 1 month or so has become my main. I am currently using it with a fingertip grip and can feel my shots being so accurate and consistent
then how come you're not an mlg pro yet
@@BPFACTS88 because I dont have time lol
@@Seas0nedChef oh yeah you have 69 jobs and 420 kids?
0:59 nzxt has the same but a better software
great review!
I have superlight 1 and the scrollwheel is bad and recently the left click bad!
I cant seem to get this connected to the GHUB, it wont recognize the mouse.. any ideas?
If Logitech doesn't make a g703 superlight they are crazy lol. The one I've had for 5 years still works great w/some Tiger Ice's on it on a fast pad.
Couldnt find the corsair Icue Link in the description,
The price of $159.99 is a bit too steep, especially when there are other mice that are just as good that cost way less.
I work at a tech store and with my discount, I can get it for $90 thankfully
@@SomeSloancan you hit us with that discount?!
How do I make sure I’m using wireless and not wired dumb question but please help
Just like with the Viper V2, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Might as just make improvements to basic stuff that the logitech community asks for.
Fun thing for me is, that i like the skates being lanrge, bcs i get slot more precision out of it😊
Finally someone with a good review
Nice video. I really wish they would give the G 703 a Superlight update.
I used so many Logitech mouses, and found this to be the perfect shape for a hand.
The shape of the thumb buttons and the space under them for the thumb is perfect, which is important for flicks to the right,
to not hit the buttons accidentally. Let's be real, a symmetric mouse can't be the top notch shape, since a hand isn't.
Spread some of that superlight love to others in the lineup logitech; g703 superlight, g304 superlight etc
wish they would change the scroll wheel. its too loose and it constantly moves on its own
how are you still randomfrankp ? didnt you want to rebrand like idk 2 years ago or something ?
If you watched the video, you'd know the answer to that question.
Does it work with the charging mat ?
Still waiting for some decent grip tape and skates for the new version... its way too slippery ootb
Does anyone’s mouse make a loud clicking sound when using the scroll wheel, can’t tell if mine is broken
Where can I get you wallpaper?
The OG Superlight has been a good mouse for me!
Do the also have a white version?
I wanted to get one, but I didn’t know when it came out
I once tried it, but the scroll wheel felt so freaking bad (compared to a 502) that I returned it just based on that
the scroll on the previous version or the 2? I'm using the older version and the scroll is legendary garbage. it scrolls without using the wheel or when you use it's a 50/50 it will go the opposite direction.
@@almo9060 gpx1 and 2 basically have the same wheel.
There is no difference
@@maxzett I see.. thanks. I'm gonna stay away from that mouse then.
It’s definitely totally different if you take a few weeks switching back and fourth between the too. It feels way more accurate and the clicks are perfect after the switches get a little break in. They feel better than the huano pink dots I’m using on my GXP. Lethal has the new feet for the 2 now. If you wanna try hybrid feet, try this:
Amolite glass front pad
Core pad rear and puck
Leave the sensor factory
I take 2000 grit sandpaper and swirl sand the glass to give it some stopping power which is nonexistent if you don’t. The front glass gives you the least start resistance friction when you move the mouse but the ptfe leaves a bit of control in the back.
