Corsair M65 Pro RGB Mouse and MM800 RGB Polaris Mouse Pad Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2016-10-19

We have tested M65 Pro on both the MM800 and our trusty ModMyMachine aluminum pad along with the Ghost in Shell, Mafia III, Shadow Warrior, Duke 3D 20th Anniversary World Tour and CS: GO titles: thanks to the rubberized coating and ergonomic side panels, the mouse felt very comfortable, even after two hours of continuous usage. The updated sensor works well on many surfaces, while the MM800 pad and its low friction micro-textured surface allowed us to have more precise movements during office work, but also photo and video editing. The re-positioned buttons on the left panel of the M65 Pro are more accessible now to the thumb, while the DPI values up to 12K should satisfy even gamers which are active in online competitions.

M65 Pro RGB Mouse Packaging, A Closer Look Part I

Our latest review involving peripherals does cover not only one product but two: the M65 Pro RGB mouse, but also the MM800 RGB Polaris mouse pad; we will cover them one-by-one for an easier overall understanding. The M65 Pro mouse is an upgrade over the previous M65 model which was launched back in 2013 and was reviewed by us, while this model too did follow the design model of the M60, which was launched in 2012.

 

The product is shipped inside a small cardboard enclosure, carrying the box art design of the Corsair Gaming series and on the top layer we will get to see a list of the main product features:

 

 

 

Some of these features are explained on the left side of the box:

 

 

 

The right area comes with the list of package contents, but also system requirements:

 

 

 

Corsair has taken a more detailed look on the product if we look on the back side of the box:

 

 

 

This is not all! The enclosure opens up like a book in order to reveal the actual design of the mouse, along with some extra details:

 

 

 

 

After we did unseal the box, we have removed the inner layer, which holds the mouse fixed in place; this is made from a well-designed cardboard material, along with a thin transparent plastic layer:

 

 

 

Finally, if we do remove this, we will be able to free the mouse up; besides the actual product, we do also get some documentation papers:
