CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE RGB WIRELESS MMO Gaming Mouse - 26,000 DPI - 16 Programmable Buttons - Up to 150hrs Battery - iCUE Compatible - Black

Ok so let me start off by saying, if this was about the durability alone of this mouse then hands down this thing is a beast. Ive dropped it so many damn times due to my lapboard I prefer to use with my pc setup. It cannot be said enough how much better having a wireless version of this mouse was a solid play on Corsairs part. And in my specific case its no exception, however it doesn't make me drop it any less i do have to admit. So on the part of durability, I'm still currently using the same mouse while writing this and will not plan on getting anything else until this has finally had enough abuse. Judging by the countless times I have though I cant see that happening anytime soon. The side buttons are the reason why anyone would get this mouse and they are absolutely worth it. Once you get them setup make sure to put them into the onboard memory of the mouse. I think my only issue i could truly have with this mouse would be Corsairs software. The only times I have any issues is when I have it plugged into my PC and it decides to forget all my settings on my pc. But as long as you still have the proper settings on your device you should still be able to transfer those to the pc again with no issues. But again just a very small complaint to a massive love of this mouse. Just get it if you are on the fence and play a game that you need that many buttons for. Once you do, I couldn't think of going to anything else.

I like to game in my recliner and this thing is perfect. Just save your settings within the mouse itself and put it on bluetooth mode. The wireless dongle is iffy.

The mouse will often not work after the computer has returned from sleep. This happens in both Bluetooth and RF modes.The mouse is far too light and slippery to be useful. Clicking the buttons moves the mouse unless you have an excessively strong grip on it.The top buttons are too light and do not give sufficient feedback when clicked.The mouse wheel cannot be clicked without also scrolling the wheel.The side buttons work well and being able to reposition them is nice.I would like a larger mouse but that's just how mice are made and I understand why they are made small. That did not factor into my rating.I bought this to replace a Logitech G600 that is getting older. The G600 is vastly superior. There is no comparison.I had a wireless Logitech MMO mouse before that which was the best one by far. I forget the model.I also have a Redragon M913 and while quite inexpensive and fairly cheaply made it is also superior to this Corsair Scimitar.

The CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE RGB WIRELESS MMO Gaming Mouse is loaded with 16 programmable buttons that are great for MMO macros, but the 12-button side panel takes time to get used to, and I still mess up occasionally. The adjustable Key Slider helps find a comfy thumb spot, and the wireless performance is smooth with okay battery life.

I was hoping for a white mouse. Corsair had one but I had to give up white for the Scimtar. Software and hardware integration work with perfection. Easy install and easily moved into production / play. I’m able to use it in a non supported OS and all the promised OS’es. Binded with the 60 series keyboard without difficulty. I’m able to run 4 different drivers for 4 mice and 4 keyboards at the same with only trivial issues on my favorite OS. (I’ve only had it going 24 hours so the trivial stuff is probably on me.)The mouse is very easy to use. It has a rubberized coating. The Corsair logo the middle button and the numeric right thumb keypad are all lit up with RGB. Comes with a long cord. Middle button triggers DPI.I love the mouse. Nice job Corsair! Sweet device!

I will summarize:The software is horrible to the point of nearly unusable. Even uninstalling it is a massive ordeal.Lots of little nooks and crannies make it very difficult to clean. If you are a heavy user, you WILL get disgusting buildups of dead skin and oil between the side buttons and on the scored rubber on the right hand side. Very gross and difficult to clean short of gently scraping it out with a toothpick or something.I had difficulties after about six months with polling rates. The mouse doesn't "stop on a dime" anymore, if that makes sense. If I move the mouse and suddenly stop, it will continue moving for a few pixels. It's not a dealbreaker, but the fact that it began happening after about six months is frustrating.Now, all that said, it's a very comfortable mouse despite having so many buttons. I have very large hands and it's difficult for me to find a mouse that isn't trying to be as small and light as possible. The buttons are adjustable and it just feels right to use.BUT, the buttons are also overkill. Unless you are an absolute MMO fiend, you will use MAYBE three of them, and that's pushing it (pun intended). The buttons near the back, are easy enough to reach with your thumb, but even the second row of buttons are hard to reach without moving your entire hand, and that's coming from me and my massive orangutan mitts.So, it's not a terrible mouse, but you can do better and cheaper.

Wireless here we go!I have been using the wired version of the scimitar as my last 2 mouses for ages each mouse lasting 5-6 years before deciding to replace it due to just age and good sales nothing actually wrong with them.Finally decided to grab the wireless one and I couldn’t be happier, no problems, battery lasts a long time in fact it was full out of the box and after a entire day of it being on with the RGB lighting and everything it’s still full. It will even put itself to sleep if you don’t touch it for awhile only to instantly turn back on when you move it or click without missing a beat!Same build quality durable and will hold up it does have less RGB as the scroll wheel, front of the mouse, and the side light are no longer there. The scroll wheel feels like it has more grip and feels much betterI have had no disconnects lag or drops at all when using it in the wireless 2.4ghz mode even with my router right next to the computer.
