Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Absolutely amazing battery life is great and the qi charging is great feature

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

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.

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.

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

I game consistently for about 3-4 every day. This mounse is durable and the battery of exceptional!

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

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

Finally after my last Dark core sadly broke after I have had it for years, I purchased another! Great quality and fits my medium hands well. especially with the swappable side pieces. included type c to usb3 cord is fine braided with aluminum ends. great quality all around

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

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.

Great mouse comfortable for someone with bigger hands and heavy enough if you like a heavier mouse. Only issue I other scroll wheels may feel better than this one.

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

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

I love this item super smooth easy to control and mapping my keys to. Extremely easy to use and worth the price! I love a heavy mouse and this is actually my second one I’ve had mine for 2 years but my little brother wanted one!
