HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 – Wireless Gaming Mouse- Ultra Lightweight, 61g, 100 Hour Battery Life, Dual Wireless Connectivity, Precision Sensor - White

I’m the kind of person who really digs into research before buying anything. Big or small, I spend hours (sometimes days) looking up reviews, videos, comparisons — basically everything I can find — because if I’m spending my money, I want to know I’m getting something that’s going to meet (or beat) my expectations. If you're here reading reviews, you’re probably doing the same thing too, and honestly, I respect it. I also want to be upfront: I would never leave a review that wasn’t 100% honest.I picked up the Pulsefire Haste 2 (wired) about three years ago, and it’s been my daily driver ever since. Quick heads-up: the scroll wheel sensor did break on me once, but HyperX support was super easy to deal with. I reached out, explained the issue, and they had a replacement in my hands February of last year. Whole process was smooth and fast, which made me trust the brand even more.For some background, I’m an avid gamer — and even though it’s probably not the healthiest lifestyle, I spend 8+ hours a day gaming (plus even more time just on the computer in general). So when I say this mouse gets hammered with daily use, I’m not kidding.One thing that was a huge factor for me was the shape. I knew from using previous mice — and spending way too long trying out different models in stores like Best Buy — that this general shape just fits my hand the best. I use a palm grip, but honestly, with the way this mouse is designed, I could see it being super comfortable for claw and fingertip grip players too. Seriously though, if you’re in the market, do yourself a favor and figure out what mouse shape fits your hand and grip style best. It makes a massive difference in comfort, especially over long sessions.As far as how it’s held up: the clicks feel exactly the same as the day I pulled it out of the box. No mushiness, no weird double-click issues, no drop in performance at all. The mouse itself honestly still looks almost brand new too — aside from a little bit of "gamer gunk" that occasionally builds up on the mouse buttons (it happens, let’s be real), it’s in fantastic shape.The weight and glide are perfect for me. It’s light enough to move effortlessly across my cloth mousepad, but not so light that it feels floaty or hard to control. It’s a perfect middle ground. The build quality overall is great — no rattling, no creaks, and the flexible cable stays out of the way most of the time.In terms of performance, the sensor feels extremely precise — super responsive with no weird acceleration or tracking issues. Whether I’m flicking fast in shooters or making small adjustments in slower games, it’s consistent and reliable every single time.That said, even though I highly recommend the wired version (and it’s been amazing for me), if I were buying it again today, I’d probably go for the wireless version. If your desk gets a little cluttered, or if you have a monitor with big stand legs like I do, sometimes the cable can bump into stuff or catch slightly and give a tiny bit of resistance. It’s not a deal breaker at all, but it’s something to think about if you want the smoothest possible experience.Bottom line: If you're looking for a reliable, well-built mouse that can handle heavy daily use and still perform like new, the Pulsefire Haste 2 is 100% worth it. It’s been a total workhorse for me, and for the price, I’d definitely recommend it without any hesitation.

Top tier mouse that competes with top of the line products. HyperX has a gem of a mouse I owned the original haste and the haste 2 is a great upgrade build quality is solid.The ttc switches on the mouse buttons are light and spammable. The 8k polling is great.I have only one issue and that’s the scroll wheel started skipping steps. It doesn’t do it all the time but just something to keep in mind.

Used the G305 for years until I got tired of the infamous double click issue with logitech. The Haste 2 was very good at first, got used to the shape right away and I use palm/claw hybrid. But after about 8 months:The scrollwheel will jump in the opposite direction when scrolling.Mouse cannot keep up with fast movement and clicking, will just stop working until you cycle the dpi button.Mediocre software but tolerable.Overall, if you're not a competitive gamer or need usage for a fast-paced game then this mouse is great. But I'm just not happy when I'm surrounded by enemies in Diablo 4 and have to stop and cycle the dpi to use the mouse again, so this is a dealbreaker for me. Will look for a new mouse in the future.Edit: The scroll wheel jump issue is worse now. This makes the mouse literally unusable for gaming or daily activities, unless you plan to scroll once every 5 seconds or something.Edit 2 8/16/2024: Software has been completely reinstalled, problem still happens. I cannot even play fps games with this mouse because the sensor cannot keep up with tracking and every time I see an enemy, the mouse freezes up. The only solution I found was to keep it plugged in while playing fps games....but then what is even the point of paying 70$ for a wireless mouse if I can buy a 30$ wired mouse.Edit 3 9/3/2024: Mouse is now unable to track accurately and will freeze when gaming with shooter games, unless plugged in.Final edit: I switched to a Razer Viper v2 pro since then and have been so happy. No software issues, no hardware issues. It just works. I'm never going back to logitech or any other mouse brands for wireless

I bought this mouse as a replacement for my old (like really old, 15-20 years now) Logitech G502. I have small hands, and am recovering from an injury in my right (dominant) arm. My old mouse is fine; I just wanted something ultralight and (I hoped) more ergonomic and made for a smaller hand. Well, this mouse is small all right! Honestly, it's too small. I use a palm grip and love to game, and it is just not comfortable - there's not enough mouse for the back of my hand to rest on. The clicks are crisp, the buttons easily programmable, the mouse software was easy to install. It is pretty plain to look at - only the scroll wheel has the RGBs. The black plastic isn't so slick that my hand slides off, but it isn't very pleasing to hold, either. I far prefer the rubber-like, tactile grip of the G502. Furthermore, the scroll wheel is rather hard for me to scroll. (Keep in mind, my hand is very weak because of my injury.) I never realized how much I relied on my Logitech's hyperscroll function, but apparently I need a mouse with it, or the scroll wheel is unusable. Unfortunately, because of these issues, I'll be returning the mouse. Like I said, it isn't really a bad mouse... just not what I need.
