Our Verdict

HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2

HyperX Pulsefire Saga Pro

The HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 is a wired gaming mouse with a symmetrical shape, while the HyperX Pulsefire Saga Pro is a wireless model with a right-handed ergonomic shape and modular main button, palm rest, and side button panels you can swap to change how it feels in-hand. The Saga Pro is heavier, but it performs better overall and uses optical switches, which typically have much better lifespans compared to mechanical switches like those used by the Haste 2.
