Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Gets 4 kHz Response Rate Upgrade

Logitech's G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 wireless gaming mouse arrived last September with an MSRP of $159—at the time, cutting-edge peripheral enthusiasts were expecting a mighty upgrade over the ultra popular 2020 iteration. TPU's resident mouse guru—pzogel—had a "hard time making a case for the Pro X Superlight 2," when comparing it to the preceding model. Additionally, the Superlight 2's closest rival—Razer's Viper V2 Pro when combined with their 4K HyperPolling Wireless Dongle—was deemed technologically superior. A November 2023 leak revealed that Logitech was readying an intriguing firmware update—the Superlight 2 was set to be upgraded with a 4 kHz report rate mode.

The launch specification of 2 kHz (maximum) was a disappointing aspect, considering that many cheaper alternatives had already rolled out with higher polling rates (via external dongles). Logitech's latest G HUB software update brings good news for PRO X Superlight 2 users: "we are excited to share a new firmware update for your mouse that will increase your report rate to 4 kHz for free. Once you update the firmware, you'll be able to access the higher report rate in G HUB using your existing wireless dongle. For more information, visit our YouTube channel for an update from Chris Pate." In TPU's late October review, pzogel noted that the 2000 Hz rate: "comes at a price, which is reduced battery life." We hope to see a revisit with the newly implemented 4000 Hz mode tested out.

MSI Claw Gaming Handheld Leaked, the ROG Ally Competitor

Here's the first picture of the MSI Claw, an upcoming handheld gaming console that's out to eat the lunch of category rivals Valve Steam Deck, and the ASUS ROG Ally. The Claw features a familiar handheld console layout with two thumb-sticks with their orbits that have RGB lighting, a D-pad, four action buttons, and some triggers. It's hard to tell from this angle, but the touchscreen in the middle could be of a 16:10 aspect ratio. We know this is a game console, and not a cloud gaming device like the Logitech G Cloud, looking at the 350 RMB Steam voucher offer in this marketing poster. This device is functionally identical to the ASUS ROG Ally, it's a Windows-based handheld that's backed by storefronts such as Steam and EGS.

Logitech Retiring Blue Microphones Brand, Gaming Line Absorbing Yeti + Snowball Mics & ASTRO Audio Gear

Logitech has announced the merging of its microphone and audio equipment brands - their G Gaming Twitter account posted about this decision yesterday, and directed customers to a question and answer session on the official subreddit: "Where do you get support? How will ASTRO, Blue and LFC integrate into Logitech G? Will there be new ASTRO products? Get your questions answered with our official FAQ." A brand manager has since confirmed (via a fan query) that the Blue brand is getting nixxed: "We will be keeping the Yeti brand and moving it under Logitech G. The Blue name will be used to describe our technologies." Logitech spent a cool $177 million when it acquired Blue Microphones back in mid-2018, so it is odd that the company has chosen to drop a very recognizable and popular brand name in the worlds of podcasting, streaming and audio recording.

News outlets have discovered that Blue has been removed from the brands section of Logitech's website, and the Bluemic.com domain now directs back to the parent company's main online presence(s). The Logitech G sub-page has been updated with listings of Yeti, Snowball and other microphone models. A brand manager also outlined ASTRO's future: "(it will) continue to live on as a premium console audio product series underneath the Logitech G brand. Stay tuned for more information regarding ASTRO including a launch that we think our community will be very excited about...We're (also) very excited about ASTRO as a product series under Logitech G."
