Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite, MOBA/MMO Gaming Mouse, Black, Backlit RGB LED, 18000 DPI, Optical

I bought this mouse originally to play a few MMO games I got into, that used the numbers to cycle abilities, and it was much more practical to have them on the mouse since it was used as a core control for the games anyway.Having used it for a few months, I really cannot fault it. Everything from the build quality, number pad adjustment, build materials and easy sync with iCUE for the RGB lights was perfect. Being a wired mouse as well was also a big plus for me, since I prefer them over wireless, and the braided cable meant it wasn't going to break anytime soon (which after a few months, I can safely say hasn't).Ergonomically, the mouse fits really nice in the hand. It has a premium weighted feel, is just the right size, and every curve and notch fits flawlessly into your palm.The mouse is also full customisable in button mapping, DPI setting and RGB lights, with total compatibility with Corsair's iCUE program.Finding a fault on this mouse is like finding a needle in a haystack, it really is that good. It became my daily driver for both work and gaming, and unless it falls into severe disrepair, will be with me for many years to come.

Really enjoy this mouse but software is annoying

It turned up late. I think it's a bit light for me. But I think it is good for playing games.

So this is 2nd copy of this mouse I own, previously i was gifted one, got used to it, it lasted about a year but gave up and started skipping for some reason. Got 2nd model because I do like the side buttons and the size of the mouse, however, its not even 3 months of use and the scroll is already acting up. When scrolling down mouse randomly decides to also scroll up by one line for no reason. Of course im using the mouse for gaming having keybinds under the scroll, pressing one triggers another for no reason which is definitly not what you want in fevor of a battle. So now I either have to send it back and be without mouse for no idea how long, or I have to buy 3rd one to have something to use... But I guess thats just how gaming brands milk the money..

I have been using this mouse since November last year but have had to send it off for RMA due to the scroll wheel becoming all jumpy - hence the 3 stars. Looks like this is a well documented issue with this mouse which is annoying given that the mouse itself is absolutely brilliant for MMORPG's - key binds to the side button pad are brilliant, DPI settings are also brilliant giving heaps of versatility with sensitivity. iCUE is good software and easy to get your head around. Barring the mouse wheel issue, the mouse is great.

The good: Almost everything about this mouse is near perfect to me. The adjustable side buttons, the size, the weight, the shape of the buttons, it all works amazingly for my MMO gaming needs. It's really sad that "the bad" almost ruins everything I love about it.The bad: Unfortunately, like some other reviewers have mentioned, the scroll wheel on this mouse seems to be built from cheap parts or badly designed because after just a few months of use it can start jumping up and down randomly whenever you're trying to use it to scroll. For me, this hasn't exactly been game breaking, however it is a HUGE quality of life issue when trying to zoom in/out in games, or scroll up/down webpages. If you use your mouse wheel for keybinds then it will be game breaking, since hitting mouse-up will sometimes use your mouse-down bind and vice versa.Again, like some others did too, I bought this mouse again after the first time the issues started happening after about 10 months, but this time the wheel issues started happening again even sooner. With the issues starting after the second purchase being months after the return date had passed, I decided to try DIY fixes that people have reported online. Everything I've tried from petroleum jelly to WD40 to isopropyl alcohol has only ever slightly improved the issue, but not fully fixed it. Even if I could fully fix it, personally I don't believe that taking your mouse apart to clean it after only a few months should be a requirement - and if you have to do it once, you'll surely have to keep doing it on a regular basis.In conclusion: The good parts of this mouse are top tier and I've had no luck finding any other mouse like it (at a similar price). It is really saddening that the wheel issues are as consistent and persistent as they are, and understandably it will be a deal breaker for many people. If you have a different mouse you use or are looking to replace that doesn't have wheel issues, I would definitely go with that before looking at the Scimitar.
