Corsair Harpoon RGB gaming mouse

Rating: 8.0.

Corsair produces excellent, high-end gaming peripherals but it knows not everyone will want to spend £70 on a mouse or £150 on a keyboard. Enter the Corsair Harpoon RGB- this mouse comes with the multi-coloured lighting of high-end gaming peripherals, without the monstrous price tag.

At just £28, the Harpoon is one of the cheaper gaming rodents we have reviewed this year and yet it still comes with a 6,000 DPI optical sensor under the hood, back end software and remappable buttons.

  1. Never got the point of stupidly high refresh rates and DPI settings they don’t offer additional usability
    In the case of the polling/Refresh rate it offers no advantage
