Corsair Glaive RGB Pro Mouse Review

Rating: 9.0.

When Corsair released the original Glaive RGB back in 2017, we thought it was a great mouse for palm-grip users and it won our top award. Corsair recently announced an update to the Glaive RGB – known as the Glaive RGB Pro. Using the same overall design, this new mouse sports an updated PixArt PMW3391 sensor along with an extra DPI button. Is it worth £69.95?
