Corsair M55 RGB Pro
Corsair is one of the biggest names in the business when it comes to PC gaming. Sure, they make coolers, power supplies, cases and so much more. However, their peripherals are easily some of the most popular with gamers at home, in eSports, and beyond. Today, we’ve got their new M55 Pro RGB gaming mouse, which comes equipped with an ambidextrous design, eight fully programmable buttons, and their latest PAW3327 Optical Sensor which was developed with PixArt. It’s certainly ticking all of the right boxes in regards to features, but how does it stack up in real life? Well, that’s what I aim to find out.

What’s in the Box?
The mouse comes very nicely packaged, with a wrap around a protective layer of cardboard. There’s a protective film on all the major components, and the cable is kept separated to prevent anything from getting scratched in transit.
The mouse comes hard-wired with a lovely braided cable design. It’s a glossy finish to the braiding too, which tends not to snag on your desk as the soft braiding does.
It also comes with their redesigned USB header, which has a lovely finger grip so you can easily plug/remove it. It’s the little details that add up in the end.
