Customer Ratings & Reviews

After unboxing and when I first picked up the Sabre v2 I was astounded by how light it really is. It is so much lighter than any mouse that I’ve ever picked up. At 36g it feels feather light. My first impression was that it would be much too light to accurately use. Well, I was wrong. Being so light you can flick it about effortlessly and the superb tracking of the sensors the precision and control is outstanding. The Corsair Web Hub is a nice tool for managing the mouse. Since it is a web application there is no additional software to install. The only requirement though is that it only works with Chromium based browsers such as Chrome or Edge. With it you can install firmware, change polling rate, set the DPI, and create macros. It will also display the current charge state and if plugged in or charging. DPI can be cycled through 5 different stages which can each be configured from 100 to a ridiculous 33000 DPI. The DPI can also be set on the mouse by pressing and holding the right and back buttons simultaneously which will also flash the color associated with the stage briefly on the scroll wheel light. I’m not a hard-core gamer but for the games I played the mouse was super responsive for both movement and button clicks. I experimented with the different polling rates that you can set in the Hub but for me personally I didn’t notice any significant difference with how well it worked. The package also contains grip tape for the sides and buttons. I can’t imagine that you would want to use it without installing the tape since the mouse is so light and the plastic is very smooth. It probably should have been installed at the factory as it was just an annoying task that I had to perform to get started. Battery life is claimed to be up to 70 hours. I did not perform any controlled tests to measure but was easily able to go a number of days between having to plug in for a charge with moderate use.

I have been able to use the Corsair Sabre V2 Pro Ultralight for an about a week now and have enjoyed using it. Straight out of the box you get grips and slide pads that you can add to the mouse if desired. I used the mouse for COD FPS and general computer use and I will say I actually have been enjoying it. It is super light. And I mean super light, like I thought the mouse is missing the internals. Makes for a very responsive feeling use of it in game and productivity. It does have the ability to be customized via a web app. It does not use the icue software. Believe me I tried and got confused when it wouldn’t show up. It’s literally a webpage that you use to get it set up. You allow rights and then it connects to the mouse and you are off to the races now app needed to be installed! For those that don’t like extra software on your computer it’s a god send not having to install an app just to change settings. It’s a great lightweight mouse that performs in day to day tasks as well as gaming.

I will never understand why gaming mice do not come with Bluetooth. It’s a great way to increase the versatility of your mouse because now I don’t have to have two devices to carry one for gaming one for work because I sure am not going to use a USB port just to use my mouse on my work PC. My ports are too important and scarcely available. As for the lightweight? Pop a Bluetooth radio in there and I will barely recognize the weight difference I’m sure. As far as the gaming aspect of the mouse goes, it was very fast. The mouse pointer acceleration was extreme to say the least on my 43 inch monitor. This mouse comes with all the gaming details like grip tape, a super slick mouse surface that they call mouse skates And this mouse can be customized using their proprietary software. You get an 8 kHz low latency response but for that response time you have to use the wireless dongle which takes up a mouse port. Overall, the design and build quality is excellent and I can’t even believe there’s a battery inside. To say that this mouse is lightweight would be an understatement. If you could just add Bluetooth, I think I found my favorite mouse.
