There are devices like this CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE Wireless Mouse serves to respond to a very specific type of needs. Of course, when we first see a peripheral born from this assumption, it is normal to be surprised, because, given that they respond to specific casuistries, their design and functions may deviate a little from what they are used to, and that is the majority on the market .

This is what I’m sure happened to the vast majority of people when they first encountered the CORSAIR SCIMITAR, whether it was recently or years ago, let’s remember we are talking about the veteran product line, as you can confirm with the analysis we published about the PRO RGB model more than six years ago. In my case, which happened a few years ago, I was of course quite surprised.

In case you’re unfamiliar with this particular design, the CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE Wireless, like its predecessors in the SCIMILAR family, is a mouse specially designed for role-playing, strategy and massive MOBA games (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena), so successful today. However, it fits quite well not only in other types of games, but also in various PC uses, in which we want to have a good set of actions, either simple or combined (macros), within the reach of one click.

The main news that comes with this CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE Wireless is that you must have already deduced it from its full name, it is the first wireless modelIt therefore responds to users who, although they still expect the brand’s own performance, do not want to give up the freedom that wireless devices provide them. Of course, as I just indicated, this does not translate into a reduction in speed, which is a key point for the most demanding gamers, allowing them to choose between SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS or Bluetooth connectivity with sub-millisecond latency.

To ensure highly accurate motion capture, the mouse integrates a CORSAIR MARKSMAN optical sensor resolution of 26,000 dots per inchand the response of the main buttons is guaranteed by the mechanical switches with which it is equipped and which guarantee a lifetime 100 million hits.

As for its design, it is of course the most remarkable a side panel called Key Slider that has 12 programmable buttons through the iCUE software, to which we can assign all kinds of functions including macros. In this regard, the software allows us to manage all the necessary profiles, but we can also store three of them directly on the CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE Wireless, in case we want to use it on another PC.

To guarantee a good fit of the mouse to the user, the side panel is repositionable, and both the shape of the sidewall and the materials used in its construction provide a sculpted shape that makes it easier to both grip and instantly position the button we want to press all the time. The set of control elements is supplemented by two main clicks (left and right), a central button and a mouse wheel, totaling 16 elements.

Since we are talking about a wireless device, the key aspect is its autonomy. In this regard, according to the company’s measurements, this SCIMITAR ELITE Wireless is able to deliver up to 150 hours of operation on a full charge (using a Bluetooth connection and with the RGB LED lighting turned off) and what’s equally amazing is that we can fully charged in just 90 minutes.

The CORSAIR SCIMITAR ELITE Wireless mouse is now available on the manufacturer’s website and is priced at €149.99.
