What we like about Corsair M65 Pro RGB FPS

  • Durable aircraft-grade aluminum frame and high-quality build materials
  • Accurate 12,000 DPI Pixart PMW3360 optical sensor providing pixel-precise tracking
  • Dedicated sniper button for on-the-fly DPI reduction, ideal for FPS precision
  • Highly customisable weight system with three removable weights
  • Extensive software customisation via iCUE for RGB lighting, macros, and surface calibration
  • Comfortable for palm and claw grip users, especially those with larger hands

What we don't like about Corsair M65 Pro RGB FPS

  • Common issues with switch reliability, specifically frequent double-clicking and scroll wheel failures
  • Considered heavy for a gaming mouse, even with all weights removed (approx. 115g)
  • Polarising ergonomic shape that some users find uncomfortable or 'awkward'
  • Stiff and inflexible braided cable can hinder smooth movement without a mouse bungee
  • Sniper button placement can lead to accidental clicks or be difficult to reach for small hands
  • Limited suitability for fingertip grip or users with smaller hands due to its width and weight

Verdict

The Corsair M65 Pro RGB is a right-handed FPS gaming mouse built on a durable, aircraft-grade aluminum frame and equipped with a high-precision 12,000 DPI PixArt PMW3360 optical sensor. Key characteristics include eight fully programmable buttons, 20-million-click rated Omron switches, a dedicated 'Sniper' button for on-the-fly DPI reduction, and a three-zone RGB lighting system. Its primary advantages are a highly customizable weight-tuning system (adjustable from 115g to 135.5g), advanced surface calibration via iCUE software, and a sturdy build quality suitable for claw or palm grips. However, it is noted for being relatively heavy even with weights removed, having a stiff braided cable, and possessing a short, wide shape that may be uncomfortable for users with very large or very small hands.
