Logitech G Pro X3 Superstrike brings incremental upgrades and wireless 8000Hz polling for $199.99

Logitech is launching the G Pro X3 Superstrike on October 6th at $199.99, building on the haptics-based design that debuted in February's X2 model. The new mouse comes in bold pink or black.

The X3 introduces several hardware refinements. Battery life jumps to 135 hours per charge, up from the X2's 90 hours, while the new model weighs two grams less at 61 grams in the EMEA version. The sensor gets a boost: the Hero 2 offers 48K DPI resolution compared to the X2's 44K, plus higher acceleration at 90G versus 88G and a max speed of 930 IPS instead of 888.

A key improvement for competitive players is wireless 8000Hz polling rate support. The X2 required a USB-C cable connection to reach that speed, whereas the X3 achieves it wirelessly.

The X2 Superstrike remains available at $179.99, keeping the previous model accessible for players wanting to try Logitech's haptic actuator technology at a lower price. Unlike traditional mechanical switches, the Superstrike's haptics sit beneath the main buttons, reducing latency and enabling customizable click feedback from subtle to jolty or disabled entirely.

For casual players, the X3's improvements are incremental and unlikely to noticeably impact gameplay experience. The quicker launch of a successor to the X2 with modest feature gains is unusual, though Logitech's decision to keep both models in circulation expands access to its haptic click system. The X2 has already dropped to $129.99 during recent sales, suggesting holiday discounts may follow for the new model.
