CorsairM65 RGB Ultra Wireless Tunable FPS Gaming Mouse - Sub-1ms Slipstream Wireless Technology, 26,000 DPI Optical Sensor, Up to 120 Hours of Battery Life, 8 Programmable Buttons - White

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This mouse is amazing and feels significantly more premium than the wired version, I have the wired version for my at home PC tower and got this as it was exactly the same model as my home one but wireless for my laptop. I bought it for school and have now had it for 3+ years using it almost daily, I am now using it at my work office. I also often use it with my primary PC as it is wireless and the battery life is exceptional, I cant recomend it enough, I want another as a back up considering I still like it more than the new corsair mouses avalible today.

1 WEEK UPDATE: After a week of use I have decided to return this mouse and try the Ironclaw. The bottom line is, I am not getting used to the feel of this mouse. I think it is just too small for my hand. I also don't like the sniper button being located where my thumb naturally rests. Sometimes I pick up my mouse to re-position it and I end up pushing the sniper button sometimes. There is no question that this mouse is superb as a dedicated gaming mouse. Between the 26,000 DPI capability and the 8,000 Hz polling rate, this thing really performs as a gaming mouse. But for everything else, it falls short for me. I want a larger mouse that is more oriented towards comfort, I am willing to trade off some of the gaming performance to have a more comfortable mouse.Original Review:For the past 5 years I have been using the Corsair Sabre and just recently noticed issues with the right click, I was having to push it harder for it to stay on during gaming. Other than that it still works fine so I will keep it as a backup mouse. But I decided to upgrade to the M65 RGB Ultra. Last two photos are comparisons of the M65 vs the Sabre. As you can see the size of the two is equivalent, but the shape and feel is very different.1. With all the weights installed, the M65 is significantly heavier. With them removed, significantly lighter. So it is very nicely tunable in the weight department. I am keeping all of them installed as I like a heavy mouse.2. For pretty much everyone the sniper button on the M65 is going to be located where your thumb naturally rests on the mouse. This is one of the biggest differences that requires getting used to. The button requires a firm press to activate so accidentally doing so really isn't a concern. Its just the feel of the button constantly on your thumb is different if you have never used a mouse with a button in this location. FYI in default setup pressing the sniper button (at any time) changes the mouse to the sniper DPI setting (400 DPI), this is really nice to have during gaming. I don't play a lot of FPS games but I will still use it occasionally. Of course you can program all the buttons to do whatever you want them to do in iCue.3. The mouse wheel on the M65 has a grippier feel and is much harder to rotate. It also has a very solid click into place. It isn't a smooth scrolling wheel, it has very pronounced 'notches'. Some will like it, some won't.4. I have the wired version and the quality of the USB cable is excellent and very soft. The USB plug itself has grippy rubber on it and is also very well made.5. The range of DPI with this mouse is crazy. I tried 26,000 DPI but frankly I don't see how anyone would ever use it, even in FPS games. I changed my settings from 1200 DPI to 15,000 DPI and even then I will probably never use the 15k setting. The most I ever use in game is about 12k. But it is still available if you want it.6. One of the draws of the wired version of this mouse is the 8,000 Hz polling rate. I just tried it while playing the Dead Space remake and did NOT like it at all. It felt unnatural to me. It was so fast that I was getting rapid and unexpected movement in game that went away when I lowered the setting to 4,000 Hz. At 4,000 Hz it is still extremely responsive and feels much more natural to me. I suspect that I am probably so used to having a slight delay that it just feels more normal. Note that it also requires a lot of CPU power to function in game at 8,000 Hz. Its not worth it to me and I didn't like it, but to each his own.Overall I am happy with this mouse. I still have to get used to the overall feel of it in my hand, but that will happen fairly quickly. Hopefully it holds up.

Finally a mouse that feels solid in my hand, the click is positive. The frame is aluminum which is unusual in a mouse. You can shake it all you want and it wont rattle like every other one I have including some other Corsair.Movement is precise, responsive and smooth, it glides easily on my neoprene pad, it is heavier than most other mice I've owned, now the trend seems to be featherlight mice but I still prefer a heavier one like the M65.Coming from a Razer Basilisk Pro, transition was effortless, as the buttons layout is very similar. I was totally happy with my basilisk but I wanted to use a Corsair mouse so I don't have to load more software suites for just a mouse and I don't regret my choice a bit.It can be connected via USB C cable, 2.4Ghz wireless with the included adapter for lower latency or Bluetooth.You can customize all the buttons with different functions or even macros through Corsair's Icue software,

If you're like me and on the go, but also a gamer, but also a game maker and programmer, data entry technician, worked in a couple computer repair shops as a board technician, I've been around and seen. I loved my Orochi from Razer, but Razer isn't good anymore. They kept letting me down, since 2010 I've owned 3 Orochi on my travels. I've always been comfortable with it, as its a little smaller and the top was made of metal and never wore out before my patience with the Orochi and its maker. (for things like the proprietary cables and terrible-est software *UPKEEP*)Enter the Corsair M65 Ultra, with more features than you can shake a stick at. It has no side scrolling - why do you care? This mouse has a gyro and gestures. Side scrolling with a tilt wheel, why! Just hold shift. The ergonomics are on par with my Razer Pro Click - the mouse my hand used to love the most. Slight slant to the right on the main buttons, and some nice hump action on the back side of the mouse makes my hand feel right at home. That's what it's all about, being an enjoyer. Corsair has you right here.I received I used unit, because I bought one. It's cheaper. I don't have time to waste by giving more money for something than I think it's worth - $60 is right. We used to get die-cast cars for a dollar don't mess with me. But I really appreciate this product at the price I paid even though it tried to explode when I tried to charge it.I didn't even get into the build quality, the click sounds, altogether lovely. The metal frame gives a premium feel and sound, the weight is a lot. The friction is not necessarily a bad thing, but maybe the skates could be replaced if you want more glide. The mouse is tunable - and you're within your rights as a mouse owner to cut your own skates. I haven't bothered the prior user's configuration of this mouse using all of the weight available. I find the weight to be too great for the skates on this mouse.Did I mention the mouse tried to explode when I charged it for the first time? Yeah! Like I said I bought a used one, who knows what the last pleb dipped this thing in. It got HOT. In comes Amazon to be the most amazing, publicly accessible retailer on the planet. They'll send me yet another used one, no bother as it looks like a great value. For now, looking at it and playfully acting like its a fully functional mouse. I do believe though, if it did work, I would like it more.
