Pulsar Xlite Wireless V2 Review - What Has Changed?

Introduction

Pulsar Logo


Founded in 2020, Pulsar is a gaming peripherals company based in Korea. The Xlite Wireless V2 comes with three main improvements over the original Xlite Wireless. The most obvious one concerns the sides, which are almost entirely devoid of holes now. Furthermore, the scroll wheel has been raised, and the scroll wheel switch is no longer as stiff. Lastly, by redesigning the bottom plate and rearranging the position of the battery, weight balance has been improved. Remarkably, despite these changes, the V2 still weighs just 59 g. Other than that, the V2 is essentially the same mouse: PixArt's PAW3370 sensor, Kailh GM 8.0 switches for the main buttons, CX52850 MCU, 300 mAh battery, and up to 70 hours of battery life. The Xlite Wireless V2 is now priced at $79.95 and regularly available in black or white, while the red one depicted in this review is a limited edition.

This review will mainly go over the differences between the V1 and V2. Accordingly, anything not covered is unchanged. For full details please refer to our review of the original Xlite Wireless.
