CORSAIR HARPOON WIRELESS RGB Gaming Mouse - 10,000 DPI - 6 Programmable Buttons - Lightweight - Bluetooth - USB - Black

UPDATEHave now had this mouse for a year or so, upgraded my review to 5 stars. The slightly smaller size and sides haven't been the detriment I thought they would be, and the mouse has performed even better than expected. Charge easily lasts 4+ days, and that's with pretty constant daily use. Works perfectly on the MBP, including the software. Sensitivity and responsiveness are top rate... sometimes there's a very slight amount of latency, but that's usually because I'm somehow maxing out the MBP (laptop shortcomings, not the mouse). Best mouse on the market IMHO if you don't need a $500 mouse (elite gaming peripheral) but want solid performance with really fast responsiveness and great battery life.ORIGINALMBP user, I splurged on a Mamba after many happy years using MS mice (up until they killed their peripheral program ms mice were some of the best around). I'd heard about Mamba's lack of Mac support, but figured 1) they have to release the software for it EVENTUALLY (whoops) and 2) even if I can't do some control stuff, it HAS to be a great basic mouse (whoops 2).I've never been as disappointed with a peripheral as I was with the mamba. No software, scroll wheel is over deliberate, scroll wheel often freaks out when scrolling and jumps you up or down the page some unpredictable amount of rows, and clicking is only intermittently responsive.So, I finally got fed up, decided to just toss the expensive mamba, and buy the corsair. After a few hours of use I can say I am both happy and angry; happy because it works so much better, angry I wasted $65 on the stupid mamba. For those contemplating the switch here's what I can say so far.PROS- Highly responsive, very good control- HAS SOFTWARE- scroll wheel is very smooth... has a clicking as it scrolls, but it's much subtler than the mamba and thus more accurate/precise.- Not too large, good ergonomic feel- Battery? Can't speak to this yet, but the mamba lasts no more than 2 days on a charge, and this apparently lasts a week, so...CONS- Its narrower than the mamba... I have med/lg hands (6' man). Unlike the mamba, the mouse is a little narrower, and it "pinches" in a little on the sides. This is good for grip, but it makes the mouse a little less full. Whether this will cause problems over time I don't know... really depends on how you hold the mouse and whether you like a "full hand".- Because the sides are grooved plastic the side grip feels less secure than other smoother mice... it's weird and hard to describe. My fingers have less contact with the mouse sides, which means I have to grip a tiny bit tighter, which I suspect will cause aching over time, but we'll see. The positive is that it'll reduce heat between your fingers and the mouse and should reduce hand sweating.About $20 less than I paid for the mamba and seems 10x better already. Really good price on a pretty high tech mouse, if it lives up to the hype it'll be well worth it.

The media could not be loaded. I've been gaming on PC for longer than I'd care to admit, and been playing World of Warcraft (casual to hardcore raiding and back) since it launched in 2004. I've tried several wireless gaming mice over the years, and they always ended up disappointing me. Largely because of the tracking issues (i.e., the pointer skipping across the screen or inaccurate pointer movement), but also because of the battery. So I figured I'd have to just live with a wired mouse for gaming. For reference, I have been using the Corsair M65, which is a great wired gaming mouse.I have it connected via Bluetooth to my gaming laptop, and it works flawlessly. You can also connect via a USB dongle, and even wired via USB (this is also how you charge it). I've tried all three and they all work great. As far as its battery, this is the third day, after two raiding nights in WoW and it's at 70%. I don't use it much between gaming, other than for web browsing, email, etc. If I had to guess, I'd say between 8-12 hours of gaming time.The only couple of minor negatives I'll give it, is that a) there's no sniper button. If you play FPS games, this comes in super handy if you want to slow down the aim. You may be able to map that ability to a button that it does have, I haven't researched it, but there's no dedicated button. Which leads me into... b) I haven't figured out how to configure the mouse while connected via Bluetooth. When I go into iCUE, which is Corsair's proprietary app that lets you configure your Corsair devices, it says "No device detected!" I have to be connected via dongle or wire to get the software to recognize it, and the settings don't transfer over when you reconnect Bluetooth that I have seen. Which just means the Corsair logo on the mouse continuously cycles through all the colors and I haven't figured out a way to make it stop.But your hand's going to be over it anyway, so who cares. The mouse is very precise, and you can easily cycle through 5 different sensitivities. Red is a crawl, blue is crazy quick. I don't lose any pixels with this mouse; it's as if I'm using a wired one, although it doesn't have quite the heft as my M65, but that's not a bad thing. If you need a great gaming mouse, and wireless is important to you (i.e., gaming on a laptop, etc.) this is the best one I've ever had.Edit: I've been using this for a while now, and wanted to provide an update on the battery life while using Bluetooth. At full charge, it provides way more than 12 hours of game play, that I originally estimated. I use the mouse every day for at least a couple of hours and it lasted a few weeks. I had almost forgotten that it had to be charged until I got the notice that it was at 2% battery from Windows 10 today. And I honestly can't remember the last time I plugged it in to charge. It has to be at least 2-3 weeks.
