Much better than my attempt at a rendition, that's for sure.

These could be the first leaked images of the new Logitech Superstrike, which looks rather dashing in all-black

Full pictures of the Logitech G Pro X3 Superstrike have been leaked, according to a recent report. The mouse features an all-black color scheme, with only smaller white accents. However, it is important to note that these are not actual photos, but rather product images on a white background. Despite this, Jakeu, a peripheral reviewer, has also linked to a picture of a supposed pink in-mouse version posted on Reddit.

According to the original leak, the new mouse will not include a new Hero 3 sensor, but will have an upgraded controller and tweaks to the HITS system. This haptic-inductive trigger system allows the Superstrike to produce analogue clicks that no other mouse has replicated. While the design, shape, side buttons, and skates of the X3 Superstrike appear to be the same as the original Superstrike, the all-black color scheme is a notable change.

One of the main hopes is that the weight distribution will be improved to be more central, and the overall weight will be lowered, ideally closer to 50 grams rather than the current 60 grams. The reviewer expresses optimism that the mouse will be announced at the Logitech G Play event in September, allowing for a hands-on experience at the event.

However, the reviewer hopes for more significant changes beyond just a re-skin, as the all-black version, while aesthetically pleasing, may not excite many users. The reviewer suggests that new side buttons, an improved scroll wheel, and a lighter or more centrally balanced mouse would greatly enhance the product. Even if these changes justify the price tag of €190, which is €10 more than the X2, it would address the main downsides of the mouse while maintaining the revolutionary and performance-enhancing HITS system.
