The Logitech G Pro X Superlight finally has competition. Razer's Viper V2 Pro adheres to a very similar design philosophy as its rival, shedding features like RGB lighting in the interest of keeping the weight down.
Interestingly enough, both mice also have incredibly popular predecessors that arguably packed more features like ambidextrous side buttons, but something has got to go when you're aiming to make the lightest mouse you can.

SWITCHES Optical Mouse Switch Gen-3
CONNECTIVITY HyperSpeed Wireless / USB-C Speedflex Cable
BATTERY LIFE UP TO 80HRS
WEIGHT 58G
PRICE $229.90
The Viper V2 Pro weighs a mere 58g, just edging out the 63g G Pro X Superlight. Compared to the 74g Viper Ultimate, the difference in weight is immediately noticeable. The mouse feels far nimbler in hand, almost flying across the surface of your pad.
The pure PTFE feet that come with the mouse are an absolute delight, gliding smoothly with no scratchiness whatsoever. This is one mouse where you won't be hankering after any third-party feet, at least not before they begin to wear down.
That aside, the mouse shares the exact same shape as the Viper Ultimate. It is long and with a low-profile, better suited to the palm grip than the claw or fingertip grips, especially if you have smaller hands. Nevertheless, this is a safe shape that shouldn't result in any too polarising opinions.
