Corsair glaive review in Spanish (full analysis)

Corsair Glaive is a new customizable gaming mouse that seeks to adapt in the best way to the hands of all users thanks to interchangeable side panels. The mouse is built with a combination of plastic and aluminum that gives it a very robust appearance and that matches the enormous quality of all the manufacturer's products. Under the hood is an advanced 16, 000 DPI optical sensor that provides high precision and the best customization.

First of all, we thank Corsair for the trust placed in giving us the Glaive for analysis.

Corsair Glaive technical characteristics

Unboxing and design

Corsair Glaive arrives in a compact cardboard box with the typical manufacturer's design in which yellow and black predominate. The box includes a window so that we can appreciate the product well before going through the box, as long as we buy it from a local store, of course.

Once we open the box we find the mouse very well protected by a plastic cover, we also see a kind of box that serves to store the different accessories and prevent them from being damaged.

These accessories are nothing more than a cloth bag and two interchangeable side panels that have the function of allowing the mouse to adapt perfectly to the user's hand. Later we will go deeper into them.

Finally we see a close-up of the Corsair Glaive and the sensation can not be better, from the first moment we realize that we are not facing any mouse and that is that coming from a manufacturer of the size of Corsair is not for less. The mouse is made from a combination of black plastic and aluminum, giving it a very attractive and robust appearance.

The Corsair Glaive mounts an advanced 16, 000 DPI optical sensor that has been customized by the brand and allows adjustment in 1 DPI ranges to perfectly suit the needs of all stages and materials. A high DPI value allows us to make a great tour with a very small movement of the mouse so it will be especially suitable for multi-monitor configurations. In contrast, low DPI values will be ideal in games where high precision of movement is required. The two main buttons are based on the highest-quality Japanese Omron mechanisms possible and that promise to hold up to at least 50 million clicks.

At the top of the mouse we see a button dedicated to the change of DPI mode on the fly, something that already includes all the mice on the market and that is really useful when we are in the middle of a game and we need to do a more precise action like the mode. sniper. The mouse wheel is quite large in size and is finished in rubber for better grip, its operation is excellent both on short and long distances. We also see in this area five small light indicators and it is that this mouse has a RGB LED lighting system configurable in 16.8 million colors.

On the right side, two programmable buttons have been included that we can manage in a very simple way thanks to the CUE software from Corsair, from the factory it comes with the usual configuration of forward and reverse in web navigation. Next to the buttons we have a panel that we can remove and replace with one of the two that are attached to the bundle, the one that comes by default is all plastic and we can change it with one with a rubber pad and the other that has been designed to improve ergonomics for right-handed users.

On the back we have the Corsair logo that is part of this mouse's RGB LED lighting system

Finally in the lower area we see the optical sensor and Teflon surfers to offer excellent mouse gliding on all surfaces, all protected by a plastic protector.

Corsair Utility Engine Software

The Corsair Glaive has the Corsair Utility Engine software for its configuration, you can download it from here and its installation is not a mystery. The mouse can be used without the software, although we highly recommend its installation in order to take advantage of its full potential.

It is a really complex software and Corsair makes a complete user guide available with 147 pages in English (available from the same download link), we are going to show you its options in a very simple and very graphic way. It is really very powerful software and with a little time and learning you can do real wonders with your mouse.

The first section allows us to configure the six programmable mouse buttons. We can program things as varied as:

one button action macros custom DPI settings sniper mode for first person shooter games text for pasting direct hits to programs multimedia controls

The following section allows us to configure the lighting system, we can configure each of the three lighting zones in their tone and light effects. of course we can also turn off the lighting if we wish.

We come to the last section where we can configure the five different DPI profiles of the Corsair Glaive. We also have sniper or sniper mode settings.

We continue with a section related to the management of the mouse sensor, we can modify the elevation height and the pointer speed.

Finally we have a surface gauge.

Final words and conclusion about Corsair Glaive

Corsair Glaive is without a doubt one of the best mice for video games that we can find on the market, it provides us with five programmable buttons, a three-zone lighting system and a highly advanced and configurable optical sensor so that we do not miss a single shot. All this seasoned by a management software that is the best that we have seen and that will allow us to get the whole game out of it in a very simple way. The design of the mouse is of enormous quality and very ergonomic, with the interchangeable panels it will be even more to adapt perfectly to the hands of different users without problems.

The Corsair Glaive reaches stores for an approximate price of 80 euros, a figure that may seem high but is lower than the price of the best mice of some of its rivals in the market and this Corsair is at the same level or even for over. It is not easy to make a product that stands out amid so much competition in gaming mice.
