Corsair GLAIVE RGB PRO mouse

Corsair updated their GLAIVE RGB game mouse towards a Pro model. Next, to the new 18K Pixart sensor this mouse is very aesthetically pleasing with configurable RGB LEDs and has a grip that is intensely impressive. The mouse is fully programmable, has additional thumb game buttons (programmable as well). Oh hey, and did we mention it has magnetic removable thumb grips already?

Corsair is back with the GLAIVE RGB in a PRO revision, the mouse has been fitted with a custom designed PMW3391 gaming grade optical sensor, and it is rated at a whopping 18K DPI. Yep, 18,000 dots per inch! These DPI values hardly make sense anymore but yeah, after testing it a couple of days we do have to admit this thing is massively precise. To match the new modern theme the mouse was designed from based on the original Glaive model. It is incredibly ergonomically pleasing and attractive to look at. Next, to that you get to choose from three thumb rests as these are changeable. And you swap it out in like seconds as they lock into place thanks to small industrial magnets. The three thumb rests vary in size and texture (sounds weird but I'll show you in the review later on). The Glaive has three-zone RGB color customization that allows for 16.8 million color selection back-lighting per one of the three LED location. The unit advances on that though as its cast is made out of a durable and very sturdy uni-body shell. For each application, there seems to be a mouse you can purchase, and the fact remains that the majority of mice out there are all simply close to each other. Corsair picked up on the mouse trend several years ago, and their latest addition is this one. The GLAIVE obviously is targeted at gamers, but obviously works as a regular mouse just as well. I've been using it for two days now on my desktop PC. But sure, for gaming, it is far more diversified, refined and intricate.

So compared to the old model, the new Glaive RGB PRO has an updated sensor, updated replaceable thumb grips and features an RGB DPI Sensor (previously static blue). This gaming peripheral features all programmable buttons. Have a peek, then have a browse to the next page where we'll review the Corsair Gaming GLAIVE RGB mouse. Will the 79 USD/EUR price tag be worth it with regards to features and functionality? Sure it will let's find out, shall we?
