It’s important to have a reliable gaming mouse while playing competitive multiplayer games or intense single-player adventures.

HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 and Haste 2 Mini Wireless birds eye view.

The Pulsefire Haste 2 Mini Wireless is a little smaller than the Pulsefire Haste 2.

These have proven to be great mice that I recommend to gamers.

Here’s why I think so highly of them.

HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 Wireless

The company did not see the contents of this review before publishing.

So staying well below that price makes these a value buy.

you might purchase these HyperX gaming mice at Best Buy, Amazon, and HyperX.

you’re able to get it in either black or white.

Overall, they feel really good to hold and are very responsive to my movements.

It’s all very well suited to gaming.

But you don’t have to apply these grippy stickers if you don’t want to.

I personally do find that they make the mouse react faster to my hand movements, though.

That being said, if you have larger hands, you’ll definitely want to use the Haste 2.

I’ll start with the similarities.

This basically determines how quickly you see the on-screen cursor move across your display.

Both gaming mice offer amazing battery life, up to 100 hours.

However, the means by which they gain a charge is different.

The Haste 2 Wireless has a removable back covering that is held in place via magnets.

A handy plastic tag is inside to help me pull the battery out when it needs replacing.

A USB-C to USB-A charging cable is included in the box.

I like this because the lighting gives just enough vibrancy to be interesting without distracting me while I play.

This includes the speed of effects and specific hues from a color wheel.

Gaming handhelds: Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Nintendo Switch OLED, and more

It’s all relatively easy to figure out.

This software also makes it possible to remap buttons.

Overall, I really love the performance and ergonomic feel of the Haste 2 and Haste 2 Mini.

In my experience, the larger Haste 2 Wireless tended to do it more often.

It has a $59.99 MSRP, which makes it $20 cheaper than the wireless versions.

At the time of writing, it was selling for$52.99 at Best Buy.

As seen in ourRazer DeathAdder V3 Pro review, this is our favorite Razer gaming mouse of them all.

That’s thanks to its excellent performance, lightweight design, comfortable build, and long battery life.

It has a max sensitivity of 30000 DPI, recharges via USB-C cable, and comes with textured adhesive.

The gist is that this mouse offers a very ergonomic design while also being very responsive.

Logitech says the battery can last for up to 140 hours, which is very impressive.

If you have larger hands, I highly recommend going with the larger Haste 2.

However, as with most gaming mice, these are only designed for right-handers.

This HyperX gaming mouse is a great size for adult hands or people with larger hands.
