At the end of 2014, we reviewed Corsair's M65 gaming mouse. Now we have an updated version, named the M65 Pro. Aimed at FPS gamers – the M65 Pro has a healthy feature-set and certainly looks good on paper. Today we see how it fares in the real world.

While not much may have changed on the surface, the Corsair M65 Pro boasts a new-and-improved 12,000 DPI sensor, whereas the original M65 has ‘only' a 8,200 DPI sensor. There are also weights for fine-tuning the mouse's centre of gravity as well as full 16.8m colour RGB backlighting across two zones. Let's get started.
