Our Verdict

Corsair SABRE PRO

HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2

The HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2 and the Corsair SABRE PRO are wired gaming mice with maximum polling rates of 8000Hz. The HyperX is significantly lighter and has higher-quality feet. it also has an RGB lighting zone in the mouse wheel. On the other hand, the Corsair has no RGB lighting, but its software is compatible with Windows and macOS, while the HyperX software is only compatible with Windows.
