Pulsar Gaming Gears X2A Wired Medium White

I wanted a Logitech Superlight 2 but didn't want to pay the price they were asking, I did not like the look of the Razer v2 Pro and the v3 pro is again a silly price that I cant justify. So after a little research and a trip down a rabbit hole of youtube videos later I found that this Pulsar X2V2 is rated up there with the previously mentioned mice.I took the plunge at the discounted price of £66 and I have been using it for about a week now and I have to say its really good. My previous mice that I can compare this too were wired I have the Razer Deathadder V2, Roccat Burst Pro Ultralight, Xtrfy M4 Ultralight, Razer Viper Mini, and a Steelseries Rival 3 Wireless. All great mice and the one that comes closest to the Pulsar I would have to say is the Roccat Burst Pro in terms of use it was also the last mouse I used before getting the Pulsar, even though the Roccat is classed as an ultralight the Pulsar takes it to the next level nearly 20 grams lighter somehow, It feels effortless to move around but at the same time the build quality is really good, a solid design I have yet to find a flaw in the mouse's construction it does feel like a premium device.Left and Right clicks are very nice and very clicky which I'm sure they will dampen down after a few more gaming sessions just like the Deathadder V2 and the Roccat Burst Pro did as I found optical switches to be quite loud to start with and that's another reason why I bought the Pulsar too for the premium components having had many logitech mice over the years I got fed up with double click issues so Optical switches seemed like the better way to go and it is in my opinion and for me they just feel better. Some users have said that they experienced issues with their switches but so far out of the box the mouse has been great no issues at all, no weird sounds/rubbing etc its working as intended and expected.The sensor is one of if not the best out there right now other brands are using either modified variants of the PixArt PAW3395 or they are using modified versions of the older sensor which I think is what Logitech are using after cutting ties with PixArt to develop the Hero sensor (modifed pixart) Comparing the Pulsar to the Roccat and Razer mice i have mentioned above the Pulsar is a lot more accurate and feels more responsive the last mouse that came close was the Roccat Burst Pro in terms of accuracy but it lacked the precision I get from the Pulsar I find myself hitting fast moving targets a lot easier using the Pulsar mouse and flick shots are so much easier now I have no cable to deal with. You wont have any issues with the precision and accuracy of this mouse it is very good.Comfort is great I can play games with friends for many hours in the evening without getting any kind of fatigue or discomfort, I would say I have average sized adult male hands and mice like the Razer Deathadder V2 and Xtrfy M4 fit my hand perfectly, along with the Roccat Burst Pro and now this Pulsar X2V2 mouse, It fits snugly in my hand and because of its light weight its like moving around a hand full of air its really that light. The Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 is 60g according to their specs the Pulsar x2v2 is 53g so which one is really superlight... :PBattery life, so far great I have been using it every day for many hours a day I have only charged it once since taking it out of the box and at the time of this review its at 55% battery and that is after about a week of owning and using it so no complaints with the battery. I am planning on getting the 4k wireless dongle at some point so I expect the battery to drain quicker at 4k, but out the box at 1000hz Polling rate it has great battery life so far.Do I recommend this mouse compared to other alternatives? Yes.I have personally used the Logitech G Pro X Superlight and while that is a great mouse and very comfortable too the Pulsar X2V2 is as good if not better in my opinion, the build quality in comparison is as good, its as comfortable and being lighter too only helps with the comfort for me, The newer Logitech Superlight 2 has the new hybrid optical switches and a slight weight reduction by about 2 grams i think but still not as light as the Pulsar x2v2 and for the price you pay for the older Superlight they should of come with optical switches day 1. I bought the Pulsar X2V2 at a discounted price £66 but I do think its worth the full asking price its still cheaper than the competition and in my own personal opinion its one of if not the best out there it hits way above its class and I cant see how Logitech and Razer and other brands charge so much more and offer nothing better/more. I would pay the full asking price for this mouse and if you are looking at getting a superlight mouse then I highly recommend this one, again the build quality and performance rival the other top brands and I can now see why this mouse gets a lot of praise.

The mouse supports a maximum DPI of 26,000, allowing for customizable sensitivity settings to suit different gaming styles. The optical switches provide quick and firm clicks, enhancing the overall gaming experience.Wireless Connectivity The X2H Mini features wireless connectivity via a 2.4 GHz USB dongle, ensuring a stable and lag-free connection. The mouse also supports a 4k polling rate with an optional dongle, providing ultra-smooth performance for competitive gaming. The battery life is impressive, offering up to 90 hours of usage on a single charge.

Definitely great mouse but software is bad- simply not working at all. I am not able to instal it on my PC no matter what I do. Lucky that mouse got buttons on the bottom so I can set up all values for DPI and others using them. It is heavier than I thought but battery last ages. It can work 8K when connected with cable, 4K with the dongle. It got removable side buttons , great quality cable and it is a solid build , but software do not work.EDIT: so I was trying to find something about the software problem on the web, but no results, and then I found it myself. Once you install it ,right click on the icon, then go for Properties, then General , and I think it was on the very bottom - Attributes - Read only - unclick that one , and should be OK

The media could not be loaded. Design:The black version of the Pulsar X2H has a coating similar to the GPX, which isn't the most grippy and tends to be a fingerprint magnet, shows oil quite quickly. The white version, however, should offer a better, more grippy coating. The X2H, specifically, is supposedly designed for a much better fit for those with medium to large hands. While it is generally described as best suited for palm claw grips, I find that it is more suitable for claw or fingertip grips if you have above-average hand size such as I. Attempting a palm grip with medium to large hands might result in your pinkie and thumb resting on the mousepad.The design of the Pulsar X2H is clean and modern, featuring a small DPI light indicator in front of the side buttons, which can be configured for minimal RGB lighting. The bottom of the mouse is prone to accumulating dirt and dust over time due to the open design, and may cause issues in the future. NOTE: While my model is working fine, there have been reports of quality control issues from other users. The Pulsar logo is printed in a black and glossy font right under the LMB, easily forgettable, making it non-intrusive. The stock skates, however, leave much to be desired. As shown in my video, there's not much glide on an Artisan Control pad, the glide will be better on a mousepad such as the GSR SE. I will update this review in a few weeks regarding this point.Switches:The Pulsar X2H features optical switches, ensuring fast input registration and added durability, providing confidence that your hardware will withstand prolonged use. However, the switches, while crispy feeling, can feel a bit heavy and have some travel compared to other mice like the GPX. The middle mouse button also feels a bit heavy, though not difficult to press. This can be advantageous if you use the scroll down to jump in games like Valorant, as it prevents accidental clicks.The scroll wheel is satisfying to touch, with grooves ensuring grip and multiple equidistant steps. The side buttons are similar to those on the GPX, which I have previously used, but they feel better on the Pulsar X2H. They are also firm and crispy and not prone to accidental presses. The mouse also has a power button underneath to allow for ease of powering off in order to save battery and a DPI button for easy DPI adjustments.Performance:The Pulsar X2H is equipped with the top-of-the-line PAW 3395 sensor (which most mice are using in this new generation), offering high speed, high resolution, and high accuracy with improved power efficiency compared to previous generations. What matters are the real life experiences rather than pondering on specs; for example the exprience of using this mouse on Valorant was great! While the player's skill is the primary factor in gameplay, having a high-quality mouse like this at half the price of the Razer Viper V3 Pro can enhance your performance (especially if coming from wired mice) and increase your potential skill ceiling. I'll update this review at the end of the month to ensure any placebo effect did not affect my thoughts.Unboxing and Accessories:The unboxing experience is seamless and premium, including a sticker, a specification card, and the best USB A to USB C mouse cable I have ever unboxed in this price range. The 1.8m cable resembles a paracord with no resistance and has an angled USB C side to prevent contact with the mouse pad. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. It is worth mentioning that the 4K Dongle is sold separately, and I haven't tried it out as factors like requiring a monitor higher than 240Hz or ensuring the game supporting 4K polling rate could affect its performance.Overall, I give this mouse a 4/5. It is a solid option, though for slightly larger hands, maintaining the required claw grip can be tiring for me. The 'H' (Hump) could have been slightly more higher at the back to fill the hands more and provide more stability, but in turn this does allow for better micro adjustments. One point is deducted for the skates on the first day of use and because newer mice like the Razer Viper V3 Pro are worth checking out despite their higher price of around £160.For this price point of (£66) at the time of this review, this mouse is a no brainer from a reputable brand.I hope this helps !
