HP HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2

Like the original, the HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 Wireless is a fantastic gaming mouse. Now with custom HyperX internals, a better overall body construction and ergonomics, and a solid wireless connection to boot, there are not a lot of things wrong with the device. At $89.99, it’s priced incredibly well, and gives a run for the money to many other gaming mice that cost sometimes twice as much (like the Razer Viper V2 Pro which cost $150).

The HyperX Haste 2 brings you the performance and battery life you want in a lightweight wireless gaming mouse. The $90 price tag is also good enough to surpass some of its software woes.

You need not spend a lot on a gaming mouse. At least not with HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 Wireless now giving them a run for their money. It has the same lightweight design as the more premium options while doing things like battery life and connectivity better, and it throws in RGB lighting for good measure. That’s while delivering comparable performance.

The HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 Wireless features a lighting-fast 26,000 DPI sensor, Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity, as well a dedicated DPI switcher, and still manages to be lighter and more affordable than some rivals. That makes it an outstanding choice for discerning gamers.

My excitement for this mouse was not in vain, as I have been thoroughly impressed with the HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 since I started using it. I had already fallen in love with its predecessor, and the changes found on the Haste 2 have strengthened that love. There is still the main feature of the mouse – its light weight – that really sets this mouse apart from other HyperX mice. And while the wired version of the Haste 2 is even lighter, the wireless version still packs up to 100 hours of battery life with just a slight increase in weight. I found the removal of holes in the top of the mouse body to be a welcomed change, but at the same time, that weight-savings method employed in the original Haste never bothered me to being with. That said, it is nice to not worry as much about debris getting into the mouse and affecting the sensor and other components.
