Packaging

The box is nicely designed, with the slightly more revised Corsair design for 2020 and beyond. The new Corsair font on the logo, a big clear photo of the mouse, and Slipstream and iCUE features in the corner. It’s also more yellow than before, as Corsair has tweaked their official colour scheme across the range.

Around the back, all the boring bits, but also another photo of the mouse showing you the side button configuration.

The box is pretty compact but nice and durable. The mouse comes wrapped in plastic and air-gapped with some folded cardboard. All basic stuff and all recyclable.

Included in the box is a single AA battery too, as this mouse isn’t rechargeable you will need to replace this once it runs down. That being said, you can always use rechargeable batteries if you wish, you just need to charge them in a separate charger.
