Pulsar Gaming Gears X2H Wired Gaming Mouse, Ultra Lightweight 1.8 oz (51g), Symmetrical, Optical Switch, 26000 DPI, Motion Sync, PAW3395 Sensor (Medium, Wired, Black)

As my fourth Pulsar mouse purchase, I have to emphasize right off the bat: this thing is the real deal. It is every bit as good as the $250-$350 boutique mice we've seen in the last year.To start with, I'll give you my experience. My first experience with Pulsar was with their X2 Mini, which I found to be an outstanding mouse in almost all regards except in the sense that it for some reason "didn't feel totally right" in my hand (18x10cm for reference). I found that I never could really get a solid grip on it during fast-paced gaming moments for some reason, but never could put a finger on what it was.Fast forward a year and I hear about the X2H via Reddit and it suddenly all clicks in my head, 2001 "A Beautiful Mind" style. It was just missing a bit of weight and shape towards the back of the mouse! Immediately upon receiving my unit that theory was confirmed. This shape feels GREAT in the hand, to the point where I simply can't compare it to another shape on the market. It feels more solid, easier to control, and just all around a pleasure to use.Performance is also outstanding, especially when paired with the 4K Polling Dongle (sold separately for ~$20 at time of review). My testing consisted of multiple standardized movement tests using the MouseTester software at the following polling rates (in Hz): 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000. The results were sublime, as the connection was rock solid at suggested distance from the dongle (within 15") and even at my extreme test distance of 6' which included multiple other wireless devices between the dongle and mouse. No jitter, consistent latency, I couldn't have asked for better performance.In terms of clicks and buttons, the two primary clicks have a satisfying action that's on the firmer side (which I personally prefer). Side buttons are perfectly positioned and also provide a confident tactile acknowledgement when pressed.Which leads me to the only downside of the mouse, which might be subjective again as this is personal preference: For me personally, I find the scroll wheel action to be far too soft for my liking. I prefer a firm, consistent scroll step, especially for FPS gaming where you might be scrolling through weapons in a firefight. I found myself CONSTANTLY accidentally scrolling past the desired stop because the action was so light. Even after a few weeks of use, this is the only thing keeping the X2H Mini from being my go-to for gaming, which is a shame. Outside of gaming, however? This is what I'm rocking for work/browsing/etc. Such a great feeling mouse, just wish the scroll wheel was a bit stiffer.All in all, I highly recommend this to everyone considering it as it's an outstanding product. If you're fortunate enough to be in a position to go feel the shape before buying, go for it but be warned: your wallet is going to be $100 lighter when you leave.

Super long story long, this mouse works very well for me. I use a claw/fingertip grip and my hands are around 19.5 x 10 cm. I never use a palm grip, but for testing purposes I tried and the X2H isn’t the best for that, you’re better off going with the X2V2 for that, as it has more of a hybrid build that’s suitable for palm/claw/relaxed claw, whereas the X2H is more suitable for claw/fingertip (based on my own experience and a few reviews online). The feel of the mouse is nice, the grip is good, the glide is smooth (I use a Corsair MM300 pro mousepad for reference) and the clicks, side buttons and mouse wheel are good as well. The two side buttons are in perfect position the way my thumb rests on the side of the mouse, so that’s a big a plus for me. I’ve heard some people complain about how small the side buttons are, but I found no flaws about them and prefer them the way and where they are. I definitely notice a difference in sound when it comes to clicks, these are noticeably louder than the G502 Lightspeed I’m replacing, but it isn’t a deal breaker for me in any way. Overall, I’ve been satisfied with the performance, weight, buttons, connectivity and software of this mouse — simple, efficient, and good quality for just half the price of the much more expensive ones on the market. I’d definitely recommend this mouse to anyone who’s on the fence and I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine.

GREAT MOUSE... if you don't use a palm grip/prefer a fingertip grip.I previously owned a Pulsar xLite V2--the normal sized one. My hands are ever so slightly on the small side, and I was having trouble regularly pressing the side buttons on the V2, so I decided to try buying a smaller mouse in a different shape.Well, I didn't realize that my ~2 years of using the V2 made a palm grip my default way of using a mouse. This mouse is NOT made for a palm grip (or my hands are simply too big to make use of a palm grip on this mouse). It felt great at first, but I noticed that I was starting to get some serious carpal tunnel problems after using this mouse for a few months. I thought I was going crazy since nothing about my typical PC use changed (if anything, I started gaming less after buying this mouse since I got busier with school!), so I eventually went back to the V2 to test and see if it helped my carpal tunnel. I noticed some relief after about a week.This mouse is better suited for a fingertip/claw grip use case. That's not really my forte anymore, and old habits die hard, so I think that the hump on this mouse (located very far to the back and without having support for your thumb/index finger like the xLite V2+ has) ultimately made me use my index finger a little too much, leading to some finger and wrist pain. My hand may also be slightly too big for this mouse and therefore had trouble fully resting on it.Either way, I'd say that if you think your hand on the somewhat smaller side like I did (my measurements are like 0.5" below the average for men), you're probably better off using a normal size mouse. If you prefer a palm grip, STEER CLEAR OF THIS MOUSE.For an actual review:Pulsar is the GOAT for gaming mice right now in my opinion. Their mice are excellent quality. I own three now (got an xLite V3 to replace this one), and they've all been excellent. They're definitely pared down compared to other gaming mice regarding the number of buttons, but who needs all that when you've got a mouse that will last forever on a charge, is lightweight as anything, doesn't creak or bend weirdly, and feels great to hold?If this mouse is for you, you can't go wrong--trust me. If you're more on my case of things and prefer a palm grip, I suggest the xLite V2 or V3 (the V4 is just the V3 but with, like, an 8K polling rate, and you don't need that).
