The Hyperx Pulsefire 2 and Haste 2 Pro use the latest, best-in-class sensors, the same as all competitors, and are capable of 26,000 dots per inch. This means higher sensitivity (or resolution) than previous models. While this may be the most important upgrade of this generation of mouse, the main difference between the Haste 2 and the Haste 2 Pro is turnout.
To match the higher DPI, this is the first Hyperx mouse with a 4,000-HERTZ polling rate. This is the number of times the mouse reports its position to the computer, and the higher the number, the more response speed. Most mice have a turnout of 1,000 Hz, but the mice in esports mice can reach 8,000 Hz.
There has been a lot of discussion on whether such specifications are useful. A large number of tests have shown that even on monitors with extremely high refresh rates, the difference between 4,000 and 2,000 Hz cannot be visually invisible. Jumping from 1,000 Hz on Haste 2 to 4,000 Hz on the Haste 2 Pro sounds big, but I promise only the most elite competing gamers will notice the difference. This is a major upgrade problem between the two.

You don’t have to worry about this being “only” 4,000 Hz, rather than 8,000 Hz like some competitors. Remember that if you can even get close to voting on 4K, which affects battery life and PC’s CPU performance, you’ll need to use a higher DPI setup.
Don’t get me wrong – the mouse is great. It is super reactive in twitch shooting games and paired with a quick monitor and feels sleek. Is this worth paying for additional changes for cheap siblings.
Lightweight, sturdy and smooth
It doesn’t matter when you’re a mouse Feel This is very good. The shape doesn’t change rapidly from the original Hyperx Pulsefire, with a rather low profile right-hand symmetrical design designed for use in various types of grips. It always depends on the hand size, but for my hands that use the claw grips larger than average, I find it comfortable. I prefer the overall feel of the Logitech G Pro Superlight 2, but here, hand size and grip strength matter.
With its 61g you can swipe quickly on the surface of the desktop. This is made from the bottom foot, which is smooth for stock skates. Yes, its closest competitor is slightly lighter in technology, with the Logitech Pro X Superlight 2 weighing 60g and the Razer Viper V3 Pro wireless at 54g. There are also lesser-known options, such as the Lamzu Maya, which is well below 50g. But when it comes to it, the Hyperx Pulsefire Haste 2 Pro is a lightweight mouse and, more importantly, a balanced mouse.
