Just like the wired scimatar elite.
I have been waiting for a wireless mmo mouse that wasn't made by razer for a long while.
I was already using the wired version of this mouse so this transition to a new mouse was super smooth.
Only thing i wish it did was grab my old mouses profile.

I like the razor scimitar it has a good baterry life, real low latency, and the keypad on the side is honestly useful for a lot of games if you bind it right obviously for mobas but also for shooters like doom or any game with a hotbar. The only concern i have with it is when my sister used it, she complained it's a bit too big, but that just might be her point of reference overall i like it.

Great mouse for MMO's or RPG

I have both the M65 wirless and this Scimitar for my gaming set up. It has a really good battery life. I can also just plug it in if i need to charge it and continue playing. I use the M65 for shooters. But this mouse where it shines for RPG and MMO is the macros on the side. Using the iCUE software you can map each button to a keyboard key that corrisponds to a skill in game. For instance I play Diablo 4 the most. So i have the 4 skills mapped to 1-4 and then left and right click. So i don't have to worry about using the keyboard, just my thumb. That pad on the mouse is adjustable to fit perfectly where you thumb would. Wold definately reccomend this mouse.

Easy to set up, works perfectly. Long battery life, auto sleeps which is great because why would my ADHD butt remember to turn it off. Pretty colors, the macros are very useful. 10/10 good waste of money

Wireless connection can be iffy but a wired connection hasn’t let me down yet. Can’t speak for battery life. Pretty comfy grip and the buttons on the side slide around with about 1cm of wiggle room so buttons are easy to access and so convenient. The amount of customization for it is incredible. I have different DPI settings for each game and it’s super easy to switch between them with the top button by the wheel. Slides across my beaten mouse pad smoothly. Though I haven’t really messed with the lighting settings yet they are still bright can be pretty customized as well.

Really like the mouse overall. It's light, it feels good in the hand, and the side buttons are super convenient. I'm knocking it down a star for the mouse wheel. Left/right tilt would make this mouse perfect. Also, iCue is really a bit of a pain.

MMORPG Game Changer

I've used Razer Naga, off brand MMORPG mouse, Steelseries Aerox 9 and now Corsair Scimitar in that specific order and by far, the latest Scimitar is my most favorite.
Pro:
- Plethora, albeit not too straight forward, options of customization for buttons in software
- Physically side button can shift to adjust to your hand size
- BT, wired and USB connections in which the latter USB dongle can be stored within mouse
- It just works so well for MMORPG
Cons:
- Macro customization. It's a bit challenging at first to customize the way you want.
- Software glitch, had to uninstall/reinstall

Bit too heavy for my tastes and not enough supportive grip for my grip style (fingertip). Palm grip and claw seem fine to work with this mouse plus the adjustable numpad is nice.

Bought this to be extra lazy as opposed to having an edge and it does the trick! Key mapping is supported via app support if in-game key mapping is not available. Very comfortable mouse with adjustable 12 side button positions. I can one hand a lot of content that used to require keyboard and mouse to be effective!

Perfect Productivity Peripheral

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I’ve used mice like this in the past for gaming, but honestly just couldn’t get used to where all the buttons on the side were. The ability to change the position of the keypad on this mouse is perfect for that! I use this mouse more for work productivity than gaming, at this point, because the macro’s are perfect for menial, repetitive office tasks. Like all other Corsair products, this uses their iCue software which is easy to set up and relatively straightforward. I’ve owned (and currently own) many Corsair products, and I think they’ve got a lot to offer when it comes to peripherals. If I had to give any sort of con, it would be the weight. When gaming, I prefer a bit of a heavier mouse, and this one is pretty lightweight; however, that’s a non issue for my office-work use-case.

I bought both the Razer Naga and this mouse but ultimately returned both. I actually preferred the comfort of this mouse over the naga but preferred the Naga buttons over these oddly flat buttons. Since I have small hands I placed the buttons at the closest possible setting, and I still found myself struggling to reach the top 3. With the buttons being flat it can be extremely difficult to find which button you're actually looking for.

Love this mouse. It works fantastic for more than just moms. I even got one for my friend who was skeptical but fell in love with it. The software isnt the greatest, but it is one of the best in the category. Basically it is the equivalent to being the smartest kid in the special-ed class.

Great Replacement for Logitech G600

It's very responsive, long enough range to take into another room and use with my TV while streaming, and the buttons on the side are the perfect replacement for my recently deceased Logitech G600. The only annoying thing is how often I have to charge it which is every few days and how it will just die with no warning making me think my whole PC has frozen. Overall I like it and I keep the usb-c charger plugged into my usb hub so I can quickly connect it and used it wired while it charges.
