  The worst thing I have ever bought.
  1. In less than 2 months, the paint-coating near the logo peeled off.
  2. Its battery is terrible. We're talking about a mouse over 100 euros, not a few days is not enough.
  3. If it stays idle and goes to sleep, you move it and it takes 3-4 seconds to wake up.
  4. Sometimes the cursor stutters during movement (meaning it doesn't move smoothly). I have it connected with its own dongle, so it's unacceptable for this to happen.

  Unacceptable for a mouse of this cost. Even the Chinese brands for 20 euros had my respect because they were value for money. Here, I cursed. Impressively bad!

  I have had it for almost a year, while a few years ago I had an older version which broke after about 2 years. So far, everything is good and if it lasts more than 2 years, it is worth the money.

  I have had the mouse since June 2020.

  Positives:
  - It is very durable, nothing has broken or worn out, it feels like I bought it yesterday.
  - It is extremely fast, according to rtings, it is the fastest wireless mouse on planet Earth in terms of response time.
  - The icue software is amazing, it never lags, you have full control over lighting and button customization, etc. And with the new version 5.X, it doesn't consume much CPU resources.

  Negatives:
  - The battery doesn't last very long, but I have a power bank nearby and I connect it while using it. I play an average of 3 hours per day and it needs to be charged every 4th day. I would like it to last a week.

  I bought it for £100 from England in 2020 and I believe it's worth every penny. If it breaks, I will buy the same one. I hope I helped.

  It is a lightweight mouse with several hand settings (mouse weight and speed), comfortable and stylish. If you have a keyboard from the same company, they can play on an adapter (splipstream) which I think is easy to find if you lose it. For color lovers, it works perfectly with corsair software.

  Pros
  - Brightness
  - Cursor weight and speed
  - Glides smoothly on surfaces
  - Can be used in two modes (adapter and bluetooth) so you can connect it to multiple devices, for example, I connect it to my Mac when I work and to my desktop for gaming
  - Works with a cable if the rest fails AND charges with any USB-C you find, and the cable it comes with is fabric!
  - Can be paired with an adapter from the same company, so keep one as a spare. There is no place to put the adapter, I put it in the keyboard!

  Cons
  - The battery lasts as advertised, but it is not much. I charge it every week. Bluetooth might consume a lot of battery because I use it for 6 hours a day, approximately 30 hours a week.
  - I am a little afraid of the cover it has on the sides and palm area, it doesn't give me the impression that it is part of the mouse but more like a cover as I mentioned at the beginning.
  - It loses the speed and hardness settings if you switch. It doesn't bother me but it might interest you.

  I loved the mouse, and I come from a wired Razer DeathAdder of good quality with a fabric cable, which was great and there was no reason to change it to be honest. I wanted to connect to two PCs and I am satisfied. Yes, there is a delay when switching because it stops by itself if not used, to start again, but it doesn't bother me much. I am worried that the relief on the palm area might wear off, BUT I believe if it is cleaned with a cloth and fresh water (no chemicals please, it damages it) it won't fade away.

  To give an equivalence between an old and new mouse:
  Old: Razer DeathAdder Elite (I think the latest???) ~50 euros
  The one being reviewed: 90 euros

  Choose and take it, but for work from home like me, it is perfect. An alternative solution is Dell, but it doesn't seem as suitable for gaming and it feels quite heavy.

  For its price, it is a very good gaming mouse, you can optimize the DPI, the RGB, and many other things. I still don't know how to create better profiles for better DPI optimization, but for now, it is very good. The only problem is that the plastic on which my palm and fingers rest is quite easy to scratch and tear, and after just one week, the thin plastic started to show some damage. The sides may also have a lot of dead skin on them, and the right click in my case makes a sound like it needs lubrication. But apart from that, it is still a decent mouse and worth its price.

  Edit:
  It has been about a year since I bought the mouse, it is still quite decent and the right click no longer makes a strange sound. However, the Corsair iCue application does not work very well and is almost neglected. The mouse can disconnect and reconnect at random times when it is in wireless mode, and even when it is wired. Above all, it is still a good mouse, but I recommend buying a Logitech at the same price.

  The mouse arrived on January 5th and hasn't worked for even a week, and the wheel is sticking, freezing, and wobbling to an annoying degree. With a quick search on the internet, the problem is very common and purely a matter of luck if this mouse will present it to you. It's a shame because the overall quality of the plastic is top-notch, and as a wireless mouse, it truly excels, being faster than wired mice.
  Update: I have returned the mouse and switched to another wireless mouse.

  A mediocre mouse... It's not at all value for money when you can get a Logitech MX Master mouse for less. Of course, the Logitech one is not gaming, but the comparison will be made with these standards.

  The battery barely lasts for a day of use when connected wirelessly (not Bluetooth), compared to the MX Master which I forget to charge for about 2 weeks of use. I have disabled the LEDs to save energy, but it doesn't help much. I'm afraid to turn them on because then I'll be permanently stuck with the cable.

  The grip doesn't feel sturdy to me, maybe because I'm used to the other one which was heavier. This one feels flimsy to me. I still don't know what suits me for gaming, of course... Maybe it has to do with the games you play.

  Some positives... It connected seamlessly with icue and has very nice colors. It has many settings and combinations that you can do with just one click. It has a nice feel in the hand and a nice grip.

  Very bad mouse
  The wheel in the center broke
  The Bluetooth battery lasts very little
  It loses its settings all the time and you have to enter the program to restore it where you had it

  Today I received it in the store of Corsair Dark Core RGB.
  The colors are much better and more vibrant. It gives you a better feeling in your hand, in the grip, and I have the impression that it is slightly heavier.
  The scroll wheel has a nice feel, both in scrolling and clicking.
  I believe it moves better.

  (Update 02/23: Over a year later, still flawless after heavy use, only minor wear on the soft surface that does not affect its functionality at all) 5*

  I was looking for a mouse that had a similar grip to the older Logitech mice I used (mx performance, mx500, mx518, etc., which I consider ideal for my grip and excellent in quality). I tried many mice from different brands, looking for a gaming, wireless, RGB, high-quality mouse with a palm grip and a similar form factor to the ones mentioned above.

  Trying to decide between the Razer Basilisk Ultimate, Razer Naga Pro, Logitech G502 Lightspeed, and Logitech G703 Lightspeed, I came across a deal for the Corsair Dark Core Pro RGB. I was really lucky with this choice because this mouse is the best I've ever had in every aspect.

  Pros:

  - Build quality (excellent materials on the palm, thumb, and extra accessory for the little finger, which have a non-slip rubber finish, as well as the buttons with a harder plastic material that is textured matte and not glossy)

  - Switches with a great feel and clear click, giving you the confidence that the inputs are flawless on all the mouse buttons

  - Scroll wheel with great precision and a nice feel, without being noisy or annoying

  - Sensor with tremendous accuracy that doesn't lose tracking even when lifted off the mousepad, and excellent performance on glossy surfaces as well. The sensor allows for perfect tracking even during fast movements with great precision, although I haven't tested it extensively since I'm not interested in extremely high DPI settings.

  - Customization options through the Corsair iCue application, which gives you complete freedom to adjust the lighting and buttons

  - 2 modes that can be switched using a toggle switch, with the option for Bluetooth mode to save battery, USB dongle mode for high-performance wireless use, and also a braided cable for charging, which is slightly stiff but appears to be very durable

  Cons:

  - None! Personally, I have no complaints

  - The only feature that might interest some people but is not available on this mouse is infinite scrolling, which you can find on some Logitech mice. Personally, I'm not interested in it and didn't miss it at all.

  In conclusion, I purchased the mouse for 59 euros on sale, but I would gladly pay the full price of 100+ euros without a second thought, as I believe that's the regular price it should be.

  Unbelievable mouse. Perhaps, along with the Logitech G502 Lightspeed, the two best gaming mice. Obviously, tastes vary from user to user, but objectively, it is top-notch.

  Very ergonomic shape, but only for right-handed people and will better suit those with large hands. The thumb rest is wonderful and provides extra comfort with the magnetically detachable piece that can be placed on the right side to rest the little finger.

  Build quality is expectedly excellent, as always from Corsair. I neither evaluate nor consider the RGB lighting positively or negatively as it is indifferent to me. It is certainly beautiful, but not necessary.

  The sensor is flawless and precise. It can be connected via dongle or Bluetooth. It charges through a USB Type-C port, and of course, it can be used while charging.

  The only negative aspect one can find is Corsair's accompanying software, iCue. Truly, I cannot understand how they manage to create such good hardware and make such a mess with the software. However, when you have such a good product, for which you charge a hefty price, you should fully support it. They still have a long way to go in this aspect. However, this should not be a reason for someone not to make the purchase.

  Overall, excellent!

  Continuous desynchronizations in wireless operation.
  Also, its battery lasts very little.

  If you are fans of RGB, then it is the right choice. Generally, it is bulky for a small to medium-sized palm. The side buttons started to not work well after a while and during the semester, the left click showed the "double click" problem. I went for troubleshooting-replacement. I wouldn't recommend it. I got it because I had a keyboard and headphones, so I decided to have everything in icue for customization.

  I got this specific mouse for three reasons: to replace the previous one that was small in size (for portability) and to have a reliable and accurate tool for both FPS gaming and image editing (Lightroom, Photoshop) where precision movements are required (without comparing it to other more specialized tools).

  As for the mouse's construction, size, and weight, it is excellent as my hand "rests" on it while the movement is done with minimal force, allowing for hours of use. Construction-wise, it is entirely made of plastic, and as for the basic buttons (left/right click), I can't say they impressed me in terms of quality. The scroll wheel's thickness is about 2/3 of my index finger's thickness, which greatly aids in control and provides a nice feeling.

  It connects to the computer via Bluetooth (the PC immediately detects the mouse and runs smoothly without the need for any drivers), wirelessly with the use of an adapter (USB), and/or wired with a USB C cable (which also charges it). The last two options also mean using a USB port, which was an issue for me since I have a laptop with only two USB ports.

  However, only through the last two options can the Corsair software (iCUE) detect the mouse and adjust all its parameters such as sensitivity, connection Hz, lighting, firmware upgrades, etc. Notable is the ability to calibrate the mouse according to the surface. Essentially, where you touch it, you make the adjustment following the instructions, and it learns to function optimally.

  Finally, I can comfortably play an FPS game as the mouse functions as fast as it should, but most importantly - for me - I can now make precise corrections to an image. Imagine, for example, wanting to correct the horizon and slowly moving the selector to the right or left with care to achieve the minimum value needed. Usually, the mouse I had couldn't capture the movement, resulting in giving a value of +0.5 when it did, causing the horizon to lean towards the other side. Not anymore!

  Through iCUE, you can set when the mouse automatically goes into sleep mode. That is, the mouse understands that it is not being used after a certain period and "turns off." This is useful in wireless connections (Bluetooth or adapter).

  The provided USB-C cable is of excellent quality. On the right side of the mouse, the surface can be removed to store the USB receiver and reattached with magnets. The thumb rest on the left side comes in a smaller size to fit most hands.

  If I understand correctly, it is not suitable for left-handed people.

  Oh, and the RGB show is amazing - if you like that sort of thing, of course!

  I come from a wired mouse that cost 30 euros, which after 6 years, approximately 2,000 hours of gaming + many hours of photo editing and 3D processing, started to give up. This time, I decided to get something better and wireless to complete a series of good peripherals for my PC.

  I was very anxious about the size of the mouse. Since I'm used to a large mouse, I wanted it to comfortably fit my entire palm. As soon as I put it on the desk and made the first swipe, I was thrilled. It has a truly EXCEPTIONAL ergonomic grip, and by attaching the "large" grip on the right side, your hand doesn't touch the desk at all.

  In terms of connectivity, I haven't had any issues so far. It connected immediately and hasn't lost connection in the time I've had it (1 week). In terms of latency, I haven't noticed anything in gaming that causes me problems.

  The battery, as others say, lasts about 20 hours of use.

  Overall, it's excellent at 85. The only thing I miss is the "free scroll" function that other mice like the Logitech g502 have.

  First time with a Corsair mouse, I was looking for a replacement for the G502 Hero since I wanted to finally switch to a wireless gaming mouse. Luckily, it fit perfectly in my hand, comfortable grip for medium and large palms. It's precise in fps games although it's a bit heavy, personally it suits me well. Beautiful RGB with plenty of settings through Corsair's iCue. With all RGB lights on (9 in total if I'm not mistaken), the battery lasts around 15-20 hours, but if you turn them off, it lasts 25+. Full charge in about 1:30 hour.

  Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase. I highly recommend it at the price of 80 euros, you get what you pay for!
