Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Revolutionary Mouse with Inductive Switches Tested

Logitech is introducing a significant advancement in gaming peripheral technology with the release of the G Pro X2 Superstrike mouse on February 10, 2026. The new mouse moves beyond traditional mechanical and optical switches, incorporating a novel electromagnetic induction system designed to reduce latency and enhance click customization.

The G Pro X2 Superstrike features Logitech’s new Haptic Inductive Trigger System (HITS), which combines inductive analog sensing with real-time haptic feedback. This technology replaces conventional microswitches with a system utilizing a metal coil and magnet to register clicks, potentially reducing latency by up to 30 ms compared to mechanical switches, according to the company.

Unlike mechanical switches, the HITS system allows users to select from 10 actuation levels and five rapid-trigger reset points, offering a high degree of customization. The innovation represents a departure from industry standards and could redefine the responsiveness of gaming mice. This level of control is made possible by the absence of physical contact, a key difference from traditional switch mechanisms.

The Pro X2 Superstrike, first unveiled at the Logitech G Play 2025 event in September 2025, is now available for $179.99. It was developed in close collaboration with over 220 esports athletes, with their feedback incorporated into the design and software. Logitech reports that testing also showed non-professional players improved their click rates and approached the performance levels of professionals.

Haptic Inductive Trigger System – welche Technik steckt dahinter?

HITS, or Haptic Inductive Trigger System, is at the core of the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike. As Logitech explained during a pre-launch event, the system consists of three key components: a trigger plate serves as the target for button movement, an inductive sensor tracks its position electromagnetically and a Linear Resonant Actuator (LRA) generates the tactile click feedback. The practical purpose is to allow the click to be finely tuned via software, rather than functioning as a simple “on/off” switch with a fixed actuation point. Users can find ten adjustable actuation points and five Rapid Trigger stages in the G-Hub software, along with six levels of haptic intensity.

The technology also supports Rapid Trigger, a feature commonly found in gaming keyboards with Hall Effect switches. Rapid Trigger aims to reduce the reset point, enabling faster consecutive clicks with less key travel, rather than requiring a full press each time. Logitech stated that internal measurements showed that the system can register clicks that wouldn’t register with a standard mouse—up to nearly half, according to the company. The technical basis, Logitech explained, is that detection can occur “at any position” in the key travel, and a movement of just 60 µm (about the thickness of a human hair) is sufficient.

In internal testing, Logitech reported an average increase of around 10 percent more clicks per second (CPS) among professionals using the activated, sensitive settings, including Rapid Trigger. Logitech also noted that a significant portion of non-professional players without prior experience with the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike also achieved higher click rates. Logitech also reported that in tests within League of Legends, professionals using the Superstrike tended to have higher APM (Actions Per Minute) than with a Superlight 2—approximately 6 percent higher. A full review will assess the stability of the HITS system, the usability of Rapid Trigger, and whether the mouse performs well in everyday, non-gaming tasks.

The HITS technology’s potential lies in its ability to offer a more responsive and customizable gaming experience. The G Pro X2 Superstrike represents a significant step forward in mouse technology, potentially setting a new standard for competitive gaming peripherals.
