Our Verdict

Razer DeathAdder V2

Corsair SABRE RGB PRO

The Razer DeathAdder V2 and the Corsair SABRE RGB PRO are both excellent wired gaming mice. The Corsair feels more comfortable, has a somewhat wider CPI range, and has a HyperShift button for setting a second layer of commands. It's also almost universally suitable for all hand sizes and grip types. Comparatively, the Corsair is lighter, has a higher maximum polling rate of 8000Hz, a CPI you can adjust by increments of one, and a more flexible cable. It's well-suited for almost all hand sizes using palm or claw grip and larger hands using a fingertip grip.
