Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love this mouse! It’s beautiful and very responsive. The RGB is really bright and adds to the overall quality!

This was a great purchase. I like the programmabel buttons and how they work. The battery seems to have a good lifespan and it's USB-C charging port is great. Some other cordless mice use Micro USB and most cables dont fit to charge it.

I took a little time to get used to this mouse but once I did I love it! I do wish the battery life is longer. I use it for work and gaming, so I’m a heavy user. If you only use this a few hours a day then I bet this is perfect, but I work 8-10 hrs and game sometimes so it takes a lot of use. I don’t care for setting up the lights so I can’t comment on that, but i do love the default settings.

Overall, I would say if you are looking for a wireless gaming mouse this definitely fits the bill. some of the features feel a little bit lackluster for what you're getting, but overall the build quality and battery life is amazing - which is what I was really going for. Latency is unnoticeable if there is any, and the color/speed profiles are a great variety.

I was in the market for a nice new gaming mouse and after trying out three different options, the EVGA X17, Corsair Nightsword, and the Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro SE, I ended up with the Pro SE, though I kept the X17 as a backup. So basically I walked into a Best Buy and bought the Nightsword, seemed like a nice mouse, RGB was great and I had the Corsair Virtuoso SE so I was already kind of in the Corsair ecosystem. At this point I just decided I was gonna keep this mouse. There was then a big sale on the X17 where I got it for 30 bucks, so I bought it to try it out and wow, that was a nice mouse. I loved the 8000hz, but I wanted to stay in my Corsair ecosystem. I then decided to try out the Dark Core since it boasted a 2000hz polling rate and, although I'm not a huge fan of the Dark Core's design (specifically the grippy back -- I wish it was like the Nightsword's), I ended up returning the Nightsword and keeping the Dark Core. The 2000hz does actually work, though of course with most mice, you only ever really saturate the lower 50% of the polling rate. Basically this means that under my normal use, the Nightsword would stick around 500hz, the Dark Core would be around 1100hz, and the X17 would be around 4000hz. I can visually tell the difference myself, but not all people can. It moreso has to do with the responsiveness of the mouse, which the Dark Core is absolutely excellent at. Corsair's slipstream tech is extremely good. Once you enable the 2000hz mode in iCue (through the dongle's settings), this thing is extremely responsive, much moreso than the Nightsword. I highly recommend this mouse.

Accurate and sensitive, the wireless charging is great, it works with the wireless charging pad by my computer I use for my phone so when I'm done working I just place it there when I pick up my phone.

Amazing DPI controls , very easy to use . Low power mode for extended gaming times . Long lasting battery

Awesome mouse! Wireless works really well no lag and battery life is great! Would definitely recommend

Good mouse for FPS games and comfortable but little on the heavy side.

Good size, tons of options, battery life could be better, but wireless charging makes it a non-issue.

After using this mouse for a month at the office (no gaming) it’s been great! I like that I can adjust the speed of the curser with just a side click of the mouse. I have a qi charging pad but it does not charge the mouse. Maybe my qi carver isn’t good enough? It is nice that it can also be charged by usb-c. The RGB lighting is a nice touch and it lasts about 24 hours with RGB on.

good mice. wireless gaming mouse is the future. fit well in my med size hand. works with corsair icue

Accurate tracking, great rgb, and comfortable grip design. Rechargeable battery is a beast.

I’ve bought this mouse every time I need a new one. It has been by far the best mouse I’ve ever purchased. The battery life is amazing, easy to use, and very customizable.

Excellent peripheral, it fulfills its function and is very comfortable, if you have a Corsair keyboard it would be best when it comes to synchronizing the RGB.

This mouse honestly has been the best I’ve used since switching to pc. If you have big hands this is the mouse for you. The way it’s shaped makes it very comfortable for long hours of gaming or office work. The grip isn’t too bad could have a little more texture but over all I would recommend.

This has been my go to mouse for years. I generally get around a year and a half life span if I'm using it all the time. In my opinion that's pretty decent. I enjoy the thumb support as if i don't have it i snag on my mouse pad often.

Loves this wireless and wired option mouse the battery life last a week and the easy use of icue is so awesome

Good mouse if you are a claw grip person, tad short in height for a palm grip though. Qi charging is great if you have a qi charging pad around. The mm1000 mouse pad made for this mouse is ok but it would have been a great mouse pad if they took the concept from the logitech charging pad. Charging spot on the mm1000 is very finicky with this mouse to get the right spot to charge.

Bought this for work and a second one for personal use. Having both bluetooth and wireless functionality makes it very versatile
