Mouse works really well, I'm pretty happy with it. It's what I would expect for the price point. Only criticism, and this may be a positive for some, is that the additional DPI buttons on the edge of the left mouse button are very easy to hit by accident mid-game. It's irritating to click and suddenly A) the left mouse button wasn't actually pressed, I was hitting the DPI button and B) my mouse sensitivity is suddenly way different. I've been using it daily for months without issue though so the build holds up well, feels nice, comfortable. I do like that there are different DPIs depending on whether you hit the middle buttons or the ones on the edge, and the sniper button on the side is nice. RGB is noticeable without being blinding, which is how I like it. cord is braided and is holding up pretty well, although if there's a kink in it it will stay for a long time. Near the plug end there are still bends from when I took it out of the packaging. Overall, good mouse at the price I would expect. Read more

I purchased this as an upgrade to my Corsair Harpoon mouse. I needed more buttons for key bindings and macros. Though this mouse is great, comfortable, and has really nice calibration and control, The extra buttons are all awkward. It's a much larger mouse than my harpoon and the extra buttons (top buttons and sniper button) are all out of alignment with my hand and are of limited use. if you have a very large hand and or long fingers, This might work fine for you. But as someone with an average size hand, The buttons are just awkward to reach and press. especially the sniper button, It is about 1 inch too far to the front of the mouse for me to comfortably press it. I didn't take any stars off the review because the mouse is of the utmost quality and is very prices and comfortable but It kind of defeats the purpose of having the extra buttons if it is awkward to use them. The DPI settings are insane. this mouse is fast. I am used to the 5000 DPI of my harpoon when wireless so that is what I am using on this mouse as well. The experience is great. it is even more precise at 5000 dpi than the harpoon and the harpoon is my go to wireless gaming mouse. I really like this mouse but the button issues can't be over looked. It you have small hands or even normal size hands, You might want to look elsewhere if purchasing to use extra macros and bindings on the mouse. If you are just looking for a very precise and comfortable mouse, This one is well worth the price. Read more

I got this mouse 3 years ago and it has been reliable, fantastic, and durable. I work from home for 2 jobs, and game. HEAVILY. So I am using this CONSTANTLY. The only reason I am docking 1 star is because the middle click started double clicking about a month ago and recently the middle click completely died. Ive had this mouse a long time, but ive had other mice 5-6 years before they die so I felt this was a bit premature for a $90 dollar mouse to die after 3 years. THAT BEING SAID, I love this mouse and will be buying another. Its super comfortable, has just the right amount of programmable buttons, tuneable weights and hella accurate. Very much love this mouse and just hope mine dying after 3 years was just a fluke. To be clear the mouse still works in every other function but the middle click is just dead after being flakey for a few weeks. Read more

Probably my favorite Corsair mouse of all time. It doesn't feel cheap compared to many other mice, they interchangeable weights can be a game changer for people with picky preferences. It's incredibly responsive and works amazingly with Icue software. The price of the mouse itself I would say is worth it. If you're looking for a pro-level mouse but also don't want to spend too much money, I definitely recommend this mouse. The brightness on the mouse itself is great. My only complaint is how easily the rubber on the mouse could get dirty, but it's easily cleanable with a toothbrush or anti-static brushes. The mouse being fully wired makes it all the more better in my opinion, and though I am a wireless fanboy, the response time and never having to charge this mouse makes it superior to me personally.
