Pros
- Contrary to my very low assessment, it’s hard not to admit that the mouse has advantages, it’s not for nothing that it often flickers in different tops of the best MMO mice, which is why it consistently remains one of the few in this segment on the market when others have died. However, before I list the pros, I will mention that I used a more expensive version - SCIMITAR PRO RGB, which has the top PixArt 3367 optical sensor at the time of its release, against an unknown sensor in the usual SCIMITAR RGB. Also for the PRO version, certain quality Omron switches are mentioned against unknowns; it is said that it has the best body materials, lighting and assembly. However, in reality, there is hardly a special difference, given that the problems of the mice are the same in the end, but let's move on to the pluses: + Sensor: I switched from a cheap A4tech X7 mouse, which served me for 7 years. And it seems that the brand is usually scolded, but you have to start somewhere, and it feels like everyone started with the X7 - already a legend, not to mention such a durable work. However, after it, the PixArt 3367 sensor was truly amazing. This is an unbreakable FPS monster. You say additional buttons with macros - are these cheats? No, the cheat is a cool sensor. From a person who did not play shooters, I abruptly discovered this genre, especially in Overwatch, where I realized the full potential of the mouse from buttons for skills both in my favorite MOBAs and an unrealistic sensor, calmly playing in the range of 200-300dpi. +Case: He is really cool and justifies both the price tag and the description. And most importantly, it fits different grips. I could easily hold it with my claw in FPS, and then switch to a palm-finger grip when working with documents, modeling and in calm games. The buttons are in place and I was able to adjust so that I could comfortably reach each one in all grips, so the idea with the slider is probably justified. Although now I have a Razer naga and there the buttons are even more convenient, but there is no slider. Case materials are mostly pleasant. + Buttons: Distinct, tactile, distinguishable (except for the wheel). + Hands do not get tired for a long time.
Cons
- However, all the merits of this truly ergonomically well-designed mouse are leveled by one thing - durability. Why you begin to notice other much less noticeable disadvantages. - Wheel: It failed me exactly a week after the end of the warranty period. Later, I read on the forum that in the mouse its encoder is generally cheap, because. is considered far from being the main one for gaming, so they saved money on it. Therefore, I was able to quickly spend his resource by getting carried away with modeling and starting to scale projects down. But damn, the already mentioned A4tech X7 was also not spared, and if not in modeling, then mercilessly scrolled the tape, just poked and mocked. This mouse even in the desert was in zoological practice and everything is ok. Like her wheel. And this is for a little over 1000. When buying a mouse of the highest price segment (and for a wired mouse 7000 or more, this is the highest price segment), I just want the manufacturer not to save on penny materials, such as a wheel encoder. And here it doesn’t matter that “it’s playable, the wheel is not needed.” Honestly, I'm disappointed in Corsair. By the way, multi-button mice are often taken for design. Yes, even if it’s really not needed anywhere, quality should be behind the price, otherwise what’s the point of a beautiful brand logo. About the wheel itself. Unlike buttons, its click is tight, and at the same time indistinguishable and indistinct. The move is blurry and you don't always feel the step. Sometimes it mechanically literally slips. It turns out uneven. However, before the breakdown, I didn’t think about it, it scrolls, the weapon changes - and ok. - Legs: They are only one in the kit, given that the form is not standard and the prices could well have been put extra, and the cheap a4tech had them. Also, they are not made of pure white Teflon (like the new Razer), which is why they seem somehow plastic and sliding a little stuck in the carpet, but they show themselves well on the table and not on a fabric, plastic carpet - I used it that way. However, in this way they are very quickly polished, they try, they collect dirt at cosmic speed.
