Corsair Glaive RGB Gaming Mouse Offers Interchangeable Thumb Grips

Corsair announced the Glaive RGB gaming mouse, the latest entry to its line of aluminum-frame gaming mice. The Glaive RGB is a right-handed mouse that features a 16,000 DPI optical sensor developed for Corsair in partnership with PixArt. This sensor allows sensitivity to be set anywhere between 100-16,000 DPI resolution in single DPI steps with an adjustable 125-1,000Hz polling rate. The left and right buttons use Omron switches that are rated for 50 million clicks.  

There are six programmable buttons: left and right click, the clickwheel, the two forward/back navigation buttons, and a DPI switcher. You can assign  multi-function macros to them all using CUE.  This mouse is a fairly hefty one at 122 grams. It has PTFE feet, and it’s covered by a two-year warranty.

The Glaive RGB has an MSRP of $70 and is available now.

    Steven thanks for the article. I read it the other day and immediately ordered the mouse. I had recently purchased the Corsair Strife RGB keyboard and wanted an RGB mouse to match. I have big hands so finding a mouse that fits right can be hard. The Glaive is perfect and works perfect using my keyboard pass thru. Anyway, sorry for being long winded but I wanted to share my experience which was a result of your article. Thanks!
