AI summarized Read in LT

A leak shared on peripheral reviewer Jakeu's Discord points to a second-generation Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike arriving as soon as September, just months after the original launched as the world's first mouse with proper analogue clicks.

The unnamed leaker, described by Jakeu as "highly trusted", says the new model will skip the next-gen Hero 3 sensor — sticking with Hero 2 — but will bring an upgraded main controller and further tweaks to HITS, Logitech's haptic induction trigger system. The announcement is reportedly tied to Logitech G Play, Logitech's own showcase event scheduled for September. That's the full extent of what the leak offers.

The original G Pro X2 Superstrike was a genuinely novel piece of hardware — it uses a combination of haptics and electromagnetic induction to deliver analogue click inputs, meaning the mouse can register varying degrees of press depth rather than a simple on/off click. No other major manufacturer had shipped anything like it before Logitech. The quick follow-up isn't entirely surprising: by most accounts, Logitech rushed the original to market by essentially fitting the new analogue internals into an existing Superstrike 2 shell with minor weight reductions, leaving the chassis front-heavy and some secondary features undercooked. A second revision fixing the balance, side buttons, and shell ergonomics would address the most common criticisms without requiring a full platform redesign.

For anyone who already bought the first Superstrike, a successor this soon will sting a little — though early adopters of bleeding-edge peripherals rarely expect a long shelf life at the top. If the September timeline holds, more concrete details should surface at Logitech G Play.
