The Diamond in the rough (for the most part)
By MisterCatDadD on Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2025
This is the first mouse I have taken a chance on and was actually extremely happy and still am (I have tried Redragon, other similar cheap Chinese knock offs, all the high end companies and everything is the same mundane crap). Please consider this mouse if you like fairly light weight, comfy in the palm, decently accessible side buttons and good battery life. My ONLY 2 complaints would be 1: The connection will occasionally pause or something weird from time to time. like I will turn right or left and the mouse won't follow but after about 1.5 seconds will fast forward catch up. Very very annoying but does not happen often enough. 2: the Two buttons where the back of your thumb/ the fulcrum would click are placed too far back in my humble opinion and I tend to not use them because of this. Takes too much mental effort to slide my thumb back far enough to comfortably feel and click them. I could also have small thumbs. Would seriously consider buying another just to have in storage for when Corsair decides to discontinue this one as well since it isn't what every other gamer is buying. The software works and isn't buggy. It doesn't advertise it well in my opinion, but the mouse has kinetic buttons ie: literally tilting it forward, backward, left and right. I would say this button system has about a 75% reliability and i enjoy using them in games like World of Warcraft. The other thing i had to get used to is the left and right click. They are WILDLY soft comparted to any mouse I have had in the past. I almost thought it was defective at first but the mouse performs amazing and after getting used to not having to put all my force in my finger presses (bad habit), the soft clicks are just plain nice. There are still some of us out here who think the side grid system buttons these gaming companies like Razer, Logitech, and even corsair seem to think are the best way to introduce multi buttons. I may be the 1% here but I find it to be a really stupid idea. Even if I'm the minority, I find that muscle memory tends to form and stay a lot stronger when you have unique, different shapes. if you want one of the best examples I have ever seen, Google and image of the discontinued "Steel Series Rival 500". this thing actually worked around your thumb and added some incredible movement that wasn't 3-4 lines of 4 buttons in rows. I would legit sue Steel Series for everything they are worth for discontinuing that mouse if I knew I'd win. You all who use mice like the Razer Naga and the other exact copies of that side button grid system confuse me but again, I could definitely be the weird one here.

My Final Corsair Mouse. I'm Done.
By Jeff S. on Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020
This is the final mouse I am buying from Corsair. I love the company, they make great hardware, but their mouse lineup continue to disappoint me. I have a history with Corsair and buying their mice. From the top, I have bought an M90, an M60, an M65, the Corsair Sabre/Corsair Sabre Wireless, and now this one. The Dark Core is my most recent and it is just confirming I will not buy another mouse from Corsair. They do not have durability. Let me explain my experiences. Every mouse I mentioned had an issue. My M90 died from a scroll wheel issue with the firmware. You could not scroll anymore with it. My M60 stopped right clicking. My M65 got stuck in a permanent DPI of 100 (it had a sniper button that eventually got jammed into a "always on" state. You could not change the DPI even through software or using a another mouse to change it. My Sabre and Sabre Wireless would always create a ghost "double click" when left clicking. Meaning, if you left click once on something, it had a chance to trigger it twice. I ran numbers on this chance and it was about 30% of the time. The regular Sabre did this, so I rebought a wireless version and after a week it did the same thing. And now it comes to the Dark Core. I figured, stupidly, that throwing some more cash at a higher end mouse would remedy my situation, as I would love to continue my loyalty for the company. But no. Absolutely not. This mouse is one of the absolute worst mouse I have ever owned. It kind of is an amalgam of some of the issues of my previous mice. It triggers the double click issue like my Corsair Sabres. It has DPI issues, stuck at a low DPI when I log and and it takes several minutes for it to trigger back to normal, which reminds me of my M65. This is a problem centered on how fast the Corsair ICUE software boots up. It has a right clicking issue like my M60. While not completely broken, you have to find the right area of the button to click to make it work. But the most aggravating issue of this mouse? The left clicking. All of these above issues I can work with, but this is the most egregious. The only way to left click on this mouse for me is to click on the very front of the mouse. If you click in the middle or on the top it will not register. I'm not going to get into a deeper rant, but I am just going to say this is the last mouse I am buying from Corsair. I could go into how this mouse's battery life is horrendous, how the Corsair ICUE firmware updates can make or break a device, or how just about how it works with the ICUE software in the first place, as those are also valid complaints of mine, but in hindsight I am always having the worst luck getting a mouse from this company to last at least over a year. This one I bought a few months ago and has delivered a underwhelming and frustrating experience.
