'We knew we had a golden nugget in our hands... so we took all the shortcuts we could': Logitech's new wonder-mouse looks very similar to the Superlight 2 for good reason

A Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike gaming mouse.

I've been spending a ton of time with Logitech's new gaming mouse, the G Pro X2 Superstrike, and if I hadn't pressed those new rapid trigger buttons, I'd likely have assumed it was just a G Pro X Superlight 2 with a new and very appealing colour scheme. In fact, Logitech expressed as much to me at various points throughout my visit to its Swiss HQ, saying that very little has changed between the previous Superlight and this Superstrike other than those left and right mouse buttons.

Which isn't as small of a thing as it might sound. Traditional mechanical and optical switches have been done away with entirely in favour a new, bespoke Haptic Inductive Trigger System (HITS) that allows for adjustable actuation and haptic feedback. The result is what is genuinely the "fastest click" on the market—at least for now, until other brands inevitably follow Logitech's lead and release similar tech.
