The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS is a lightweight, right-handed gaming mouse designed primarily for FPS and MOBA gaming. It's a wireless version of the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO and belongs to Corsair's premium Champion Series lineup. It connects wirelessly with its USB receiver or via Bluetooth. This mouse also uses Corsair's QUICKSTRIKE buttons which Corsair claims allow for faster clicks.

Note: Corsair revised the advertised polling rate of this mouse since we first reviewed it. See the Sensor Specifications section.

Our Verdict

0.0
Work 

Although it isn't specifically for this use, the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS is a very good mouse for office and multimedia work. The build quality feels good overall, and it has a comfortable, right-handed shape suitable for a wide range of hand sizes. It also connects wirelessly with a USB receiver or via Bluetooth, and you can rebind any of the buttons using the customization software. Unfortunately, the scroll wheel lacks both a free-scrolling mode and tilt inputs for horizontal scrolling.

Pros
  • Connects wirelessly with a USB receiver or via Bluetooth.
  • Customization software compatible with Windows and macOS.
  • Onboard memory for saving custom settings.
Cons
  • Bulky; isn't designed to slip into laptop bags or cases.
  • Scroll wheel lacks a free-scrolling mode and tilt inputs.

Video Games (FPS) 

The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS is an excellent FPS gaming mouse. It has superb click latency and a very low lift-off distance, and you can adjust the CPI by precise increments within an extremely wide range. It's also fairly lightweight, although there are lots of lighter wireless options available. Unfortunately, its feet don't glide as smoothly as those on many similar gaming mice at this price point. Also, it's possible to register unintended mouse clicks when placing the mouse back down after repositioning. This may be because of Corsair's QUICKSTRIKE button technology, which is intended to produce faster clicks.

Pros
  • Superb click latency.
  • Lightweight.
  • Onboard memory for saving custom settings.
Cons
  • Stiff, poor quality rubber charging cable.
  • Bulky; isn't designed to slip into laptop bags or cases.
  • It's possible to register unintended clicks when repositioning.

Video Games (MMO) 

The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS is a great mouse for MMO gaming, though it doesn't have nearly as many side buttons as a dedicated MMO mouse. However, you can reprogram most of the buttons using the customization software. Performance-wise, the click latency is remarkably low, and you can adjust your CPI very precisely within an extremely wide range.

Pros
  • Superb click latency.
  • Customization software compatible with Windows and macOS.
  • Onboard memory for saving custom settings.
Cons
  • Bulky; isn't designed to slip into laptop bags or cases.
  • Not nearly as many side buttons as a dedicated MMO gaming mouse.
  • It's possible to register unintended clicks when repositioning.

    Popular Mouse Comparisons

    The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO Wireless Champion Series is a wireless version of the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO. It features the same shape but has an upgraded sensor. While the wired version has a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz, this mouse has a maximum polling rate of 1000Hz. Impressively, it's only a few grams heavier than its wired counterpart; however, both mice are right at the heaviest end of what's considered a lightweight mouse, and there are many wireless gaming options available that are lighter.

    Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT

    Track

    The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT and the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS are both gaming mice well-suited for FPS games. The Logitech is significantly lighter and feels sturdier overall. Both mice connect wirelessly with their included USB receivers, but the Corsair also has Bluetooth support.

    Corsair DARKSTAR WIRELESS

    Track

    The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS and the Corsair DARKSTAR WIRELESS are wireless gaming mice. The SABRE RGB PRO WIRELESS is lighter and better suited for FPS games. It has two side buttons on the left.  On the other hand, the DARKSTAR WIRELESS is better suited for MMOs or MOBAs but feels sturdier and has more programmable buttons, including a six-button cluster on the left. The DARKSTAR also supports tilt gestures, which the SABRE lacks.

    Corsair SABRE RGB PRO

    Track

    The Corsair SABRE RGB PRO Wireless is the wireless version of the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO. The two mice are very similar, but the RGB PRO Wireless has an improved sensor with a wider CPI range. That said, it only has a maximum polling rate of 1000Hz, while the wired SABRE RGB PRO has a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz. Unfortunately, the wireless version also has some minor build quality issues not present on the wired version.
