Personally using haste 2 core, I can vouch for it, before that I was using g402 but it was way heavier

Hyperx Haste 2 Core. It’s light affordable and the white one with green buttons has a cool 90s vibe.

Surprisingly solid, no creeks or flexing. I actually bought the Pulsar CrazyLight with the aim of replacing the HyperX but then returned the CrazyLight because i realized i didn’t have a reason to replace my mouse.

if u r a palm gripper then u can also look into razer deathadder v2 (but the weight is not as light as other options) or hyperx pulsefire haste 2 wireless or the core variant depending upon ur usecase both r easily available on amazon india's website

Hyperx pulsefire haste 2 core wireless. I was using the first pulsefire haste wireless but the scroll wheel encoder broke. Couldn't be bothered to spend as much for the 2 but the core is a nice budget version. I bought the ATK A9 to try the GPX shape. It was good bcs it was so light. But I just couldn't find a grip with the shape.

If you can afford, the pulsefire haste 2 is the best in this list. Most bang for buck is the g304. hero sensor, 40g accel and 400 ips speed. Been using it for a year now. Its a bit on the heavier side but there are tons of mods available, stl files for honeycomb shell etc. i just switched to a lighter and smaller AAA battery and used some solder wire in a creative way, reduced the weight to nearly 65g. Edit - the double click issue for the right click is real, but its very rare for me atleast, once every few days i get that. Just informing, do what you will with this information Edit 2 - Don't focus much on polling rate and dpi. 1000hz polling rate in enough. Any more is just gimmick unless you are atleast a tier 2 pro and need the absolute best equipment. Dpi count doesn't really matter, all gaming mice have sufficient range. The really important parameters to watch out for are acceleration and tracking speed in IPS (inches per second). How fast you can move your mouse before it stops registering inputs. I previously used a cosmic byte mouse which had 20g accel and 60 ips. And the mouse would just stop registering when i flicked fast (valorant) and with my g304 i physically can't make the mouse do that however fast i try to flick or move, It doesn't miss. Atleast 200ips and 30g accel i would recommend for any fps shooter or fast paced platformer or soulslike title. Make an informed purchase by yourself based on these parameters.

Go with the G304 if you wanna save a bit and don't mind having to use AA batteries (I used to use this mouse, it's good.) or if you don't want to keep changing batteries get the Pulsefire Haste 2 it's the mouse I'm using right now and I have no issues with it, you can just plug in the usb directly to charge when needed and use it through the dongle for wireless.

I am having the same issue, i had the pulse fire haste for a while not and thought an upgrade was in store. I bought the Pulse fire Haste 2 and returned it due to an apparent sensor issue. It would change sensitivity thought out playing. Idk if it was sensor or connectivity but apparently this has been plaguing this mouse for 2 plus years and hyper x hasn’t fixed it so I think I’m done with hyper x. Which sucks cause I really liked the feel of the Haste 2 Wireless. I just got the super light and idk if I like it. It’s bigger and not the same form factor. Not a big fan of the side buttons either. Thinking about trying the super light 2c and seeing if smaller is better. I don’t have big hands so it might workout. Only issue is the crazy price, but I have no idea what to do after this.
