Corsair or ROG?

Go to solution Solved by ProtonNeutronElectron,

TBH I would get neither r an rog or coarsair mouse i would get a beast x or beast x mini if you want to go lighter. These mice are lighter than both you options (34-44 grams) and are made of magnesium alloy.

Hi! I am looking to get a super light gaming mouse(for work not so much gaming, video editing, Maya etc. but could also game from time to time) from carbon fiber since I like the more premium feel and I have a dilemma between the Corsair Sabre V2 Pro and the ROG Harpe Ace Extreme. Since there is an 8g difference(55 Corsair and 47 ASUS) and I am coming from a SteelSeries Rival 3 Wireless which is 95g should I go to ASUS just for the 8g and also glass skates for faster easier movement or get the Corsair which has better battery and more carbon fiber and also uses web utility while the ASUS uses Armoury Crate Gear(the lightweight version)? I am on Mac. Also how does the answer change if I apply third party glass skates to the Corsair? Thank you!

Corsair and Asus are normie brands when it comes to lightweight mice. I always check in on r/MouseReview for what's actually relevant in the market but they're definitely a passionate bunch when it comes to mice. Have a read through at brands that make good, lightweirght mice be their end all instead of Corsair and Asus who have mice simply be a sidepiece.
