When we updated our guide to the best gaming mice last year, we had no idea Logitech would be rolling out the G Pro X Superlight 2 shortly thereafter. Less than a year later, the excellent gaming mouse remains the fastest the company has ever made — one that’s currently on sale at Amazon and Best Buy starting at $136.75 ($23 off), an all-time low.

Like the original model, the Superlight 2 is all about shedding weight while simultaneously ratcheting up the polling rate. The wireless mouse offers a 4kHz response rate thanks to a recent firmware update, along with a newer Hero 2 sensor that tracks at 500 inches per second (and up to 32,000 DPI). That combo, combined with the fact that the gaming mouse weighs a mere 60 grams (2.1 ounces), makes it ideal for esports PC players who desire high DPI / low in-game sensitivity. It also touts up to 95 hours of battery life when using its power saving modes (or 51 hours without) and compatibility with Logitech’s Powerplay charging mousepad, though, keep in mind that the new 4kHZ mode will eat up more battery life when engaged.

Personally, I have a hard time telling the difference between 1kHz and 2kHz polling — let alone a 4kHZ polling rate. However, I am a fan of the Superlight 2’s hybrid optical / mechanical switches, which still provide a satisfying click when pressed. I’m not a tournament gamer by any means, but if you want a pro-grade gaming mouse that will work great for work and play, it’s hard to go wrong with Logitech’s latest.

$137

The G Pro X Superlight 2 is Logitech’s lightest and most advanced mouse to date. It features a 32,000 DPI Hero 2 sensor and 4kHz polling rate as well as support for USB-C charging and Logitech’s Powerplay mouse mat.

  • Right-to-repair bills continue to sweep the nation, but unless you have the right tools for the job, it doesn’t matter if you obtain the instructions and all the necessary parts. Thankfully, iFixit’s Pro Tech Toolkit is currently available from Amazon and iFixit for $59.96 (about $15 off), matching its all-time low. The handy set revolves around a 64-bit driver kit, though it also provides a SIM removal tool, tweezers, spudgers, and other bits and bobs. Plus, the included magnetic case doubles as a sorting tray, which makes keeping tabs on your Phillips and flatheads that much easier.
  • If you’re looking for a pair of headphones that offer premium features without the premium price tag, Sony’s new ULT Wear are down to an all-time low of $178 ($22 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. They support many of the same features found on Sony’s 1000XM5 — including on-ear detection, head-tracking spatial audio, and faster quick charging — but their noise cancellation tech isn’t quite as impressive as that of Sony’s flagship cans. That being said, they offer deeper low-end via rumble and a pair of bass-heavy sound modes you can engage with just a press of a button.
  • Sony’s next State of Play event, which kicks off this afternoon, will likely shed some light on a number of upcoming titles for the PS5 and PSVR 2 — including, perhaps, Insomniac’s Wolverine. However, if you have yet to play the studio’s other superhero title, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, you can grab it right now at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target for an all-time low of $49.99 ($20 off) as part of Sony’s ongoing Days of Play sale.
