Shop breakdown: Logitech sends unreleased gaming mouse to customers

Logitech’s X3 Superstrike gaming mouse hasn’t even been officially announced yet. But the manufacturer has now mistakenly sent the device to a buyer. He had actually ordered the predecessor in the official online shop.

Logistics error revealed by Maus

In mid-August, it was reported on Logitech’s new G Pro X3 Superstrike. Actually, the new gaming mouse hasn’t even been officially announced yet, let alone available on the market. However, a customer has now suffered a shipping error. After ordering the previous model, the manufacturer’s official online shop probably accidentally delivered the new version. The company’s engineers originally developed the product series specifically for professional players in e-sports. During the construction, optical gimmicks such as RGB lighting were deliberately avoided in order to keep the overall weight as low as possible.

Improvements in detail

Like users Alternative-Cream444 on Reddit reported, the uploaded images of his now surprisingly received X3 Superstrike confirm the specific technical data of the mouse. The shape of the leaked “Pink Eclipse” color variant remains largely identical to its predecessor. It only has a slightly adjusted right side for a better grip. The underside appears completely unchanged, so previous accessories such as sliding pads should still fit.

The packaging also confirms the use of an updated Hero 2 sensor. To further increase precision, the engineers have significantly increased the sampling rate. The sensitivity of the optical sensor now reaches up to 48,000 DPI. Other technical changes can also be seen:

  • Weight: 59 grams (two grams lighter than its predecessor)
  • Acceleration: 90 G (instead of the previous 88 G)
  • Speed: 930 IPS (compared to 888 IPS)
  • Battery life significantly increased

    Another difference in the new generation can be seen in the energy supply. The battery life increases from the previous 90 to a full 135 hours, which corresponds to an increase of 50 percent. The dimensions remain compact at 125 by 63.5 by 40 millimeters. This means that all previously leaked details have been confirmed again. Logitech’s official announcement and price information are still pending.
