Our Verdict

Corsair HARPOON RGB Wireless

Corsair HARPOON RGB

The Corsair HARPOON RGB Wireless is much better than the Corsair HARPOON RGB. Both mice have the same shape, while the RGB Wireless is, as the name suggests, a wireless mouse. It also has a much better sensor with a wider CPI range and lower CPI variation. However, the RGB Gaming Mouse is lighter and has a lower lift-off distance.
