Scimitar Elite RGB Wireless MMO Gaming Mouse - 26,000 DPI - 16 Programmable Buttons - Up to 150hrs Battery - iCUE Compatible - Black

ICUE DOES WORK - At the time of this writing there is only one other review posted and it says ICUE does not work. That it false. To be fair, the mouse did not register for me in ICUE at first, either. But the cause is fairly obvious. They are using an old version of ICUE... from before this mouse even existed. Literally all you need to do is update the software. I attached screenshots proving it shows up and works, along with what software revisions they are on right now. Yeah, that's it... just update your software. There is a button in the corner. For the mouse itself, it is ALMOST identical to the old wired version. There are a few minor aesthetic downgrades. For some reason they removed the RGB in the mouse wheel, plus the light in front of the side buttons is gone too. Also, it has one less button on the top, behind the mouse wheel. The fit and feel is the same. I would certainly be happier without those random minor downgrades, but they are super minor and the upgrade of FINALLY having a wireless version of this mouse is 100% worth it. I love this mouse and have been on the lookout for a wireless version for years. It is the best MMO mouse, and now finally wireless.

I absolutely love this mouse. I use this for non stop gaming for days at a time. I will say the range is kind of limited on the receiver. Only onther issue I've had is that it occasionally forgets the button mapping and the settings but then I just need to bring up the icue app and refresh it and then its back to normal. To me this is a top notch mouse that feels great looks good and fits well in my slightly larger hands. To me this is more than worth every penny with all of its capabilities. This thing has amazing battery life and I can get some serious gaming done with solid 4+ hour sessions foe close to if not over a full 7 day week.

I've had the wireless version for about a week now and it's noticeable that you need to press the left and right click with a bit more finger power compared to the wired version, I didn't like it at first but by now I've gotten used to it. The battery life is great for long hours of gaming. I just wish that on the icue software it would show the percentage of battery life. I only use the usb wireless receiver when using the mouse and one problem that happens every few hours is that while in game, for a second the mouse cursor skips/blinks around where I'm trying to move the cursor. Not sure if that has to do with battery life but when I check icue for the battery status it's good on charge. Hopefully updates fix this. Overall I'm happy with the wireless version so far. I'm hoping that the durability of the L + R clicks and mouse wheel will last much longer than the wired version. The wired version would usually last me about 6-8 months before they become barely usable. Update Oct 5 2023 As of now, I returned the mouse and got it replaced, hoping that my mouse was defective because of the reoccurring mouse cursor problem where randomly the mouse cursor would spas out and not follow my movement. Bummer. This is still a problem with the new mouse I just got replaced. I will update this review again if a future software update fixes this problem.

I’ve had the Corsair Scimitar Wireless for about two months, and unfortunately, it’s been a pretty frustrating ride. While I usually like Corsair products—my S2500 speakers and USB drives have been great—this mouse just didn’t live up to expectations. ⚡ Charging Issues The biggest problem is that it simply won’t charge anymore. I’ve tried USB 3.0 ports, USB 2.0, even wall chargers—nothing works. For a premium mouse, that’s a dealbreaker. 🖲️ Design Flaws The button layout is also tricky. The slope of the side buttons means that unless you press down firmly, the mouse tends to shift slightly when clicking. In a Windows environment, this can lead to misclicks—like accidentally cutting files instead of copying them. It’s subtle, but it adds up over time. 🎮 Software & Mapping Button mapping through iCUE feels clunky and unintuitive. I found it hard to get the setup I wanted, and the software didn’t always save changes reliably. 🧠 Final Thoughts I really wanted to like this mouse, but between the charging failure, awkward design, and software hiccups, I can’t recommend it—especially at the $100 price point. If you’re looking for a solid alternative, I’d suggest checking out the UtechSmart Venus Pro RGB Wireless MMO Gaming Mouse. It’s around $38, has a comfortable shape, reliable wireless performance, and plenty of programmable buttons. It’s a much better value—and you’ll still have money left over for your next wishlist game.

I purchased the Corsair Scimitar mouse primarily for my engineering workflow, which heavily involves AutoCAD, Revit, and Bluebeam. After extensive daily use, I can confidently say it's one of the best productivity enhancements I've added to my workstation. The mouse is ergonomically designed and fits comfortably in my hand, reducing strain during long drafting and design sessions. The adjustable thumb keypad is extremely beneficial, allowing me to quickly execute macros and shortcuts specific to AutoCAD and Revit commands. Tasks that previously required multiple keyboard inputs now happen seamlessly with a single thumb click, significantly boosting my productivity. The clicks are precise and have a satisfying tactile feedback—crisp without feeling harsh or fatiguing. The responsiveness makes precise selections in Revit or detailed markups in Bluebeam smooth and intuitive. The build quality feels solid, durable, and suitable for intensive, professional use. However, configuring the mouse through Corsair’s iCue software was initially a bit cumbersome. While visually polished, iCue’s learning curve is steeper than Logitech’s more straightforward alternatives. That said, once the setup is complete, the software works reliably, automatically switching profiles based on the active application, a feature I find particularly useful moving between CAD, PDF markups, and other software. Overall, despite the initial software hurdles, the Corsair Scimitar has become an essential part of my engineering workflow. It significantly reduces repetitive actions, saves time, and enhances my comfort during extended periods of technical work. Highly recommended for engineers, architects, and anyone whose daily tasks involve complex software shortcuts.

this mouse is amazing to be totally honest... its actually better than the newer version of it in my opinion because it doesnt have an ugly yellow scroll wheel. not sure why they chose that color scheme for the new mouse but this one is the one to buy. get it before its gone because the icue software is awesome to customize it in any way you want and it will match your setup much easier than random yellow accents. plenty of buttons for complicated games like eve online and just makes every game you play better once you get used to the side buttons.. ive been using a 12 button MMO mouse for like 15 years so i could neve live without one... this is the best one. much better than razor or the dragon brand. ive tried them all.

This is my fourth Corsair Scimitar MMO mouse, these seem to work great for 1-2 years before they develop problems on me. Similar to previous versions, this one also gradually developed an issue with the scroll wheel. The majority of the time when I click the middle mouse button now, nothing happens. I have to press down very firmly at exactly the right angle for the middle mouse button to actually actuate. Durability of the paint on the 12 MMO buttons seems to have improved. In previous versionsm the paint would eventually flake away and ruin the numbers, but that wasn't at all an issue for me with this one. However, a first for me was the rubberized finish blistering and peeling away at the palm rest after about a year. I keep my desk and hands quite clean and didn't experience this problem with my older Scimitar mice. Really disappointing it got so ugly despite my efforts to not use with greasy/sweaty hands. Really love Corsair keyboards so I keep buying these mice to match the aesthetic, but the keyboards far outlast the mice. I somehow doubt purchasing a fifth Scimitar mouse is going to be much different an experience at this rate.

This is the BEST mouse I have ever had. The buttons are supper customizable. I love that it’s rechargeable no batteries. It’s cool looking and compared to most mouses this one fits my large hand very well. I use it to work on autocad, and gaming and I have to say I’m incredibly happy with the purchase. That and I got it for $60 by getting an “opened” box… it was still brand new in box when I got it.
