Design

The Corsair M75 Air eatures a sleek and minimalist design, measuring a compact 128 x 42 x 64.6 mm (HxWxD) and weighing just 74g, similar to the M75 Air we reviewed earlier. It stands out as one of the most agile mice in its category. Its compact form factor makes it exceptionally easy to handle, facilitating swift movements, sweeps, and seamless recentres, elevating your gaming encounters.

Built from premium plastic with a matte-textured finish, this mouse boasts an ambidextrous design, delivering a comfortable grip suitable for gamers of all hand sizes and grip preferences. Its symmetrical build not only feels natural but also enhances essential gaming maneuvers.

For connectivity, the Corsair M75 Air works only in wired mode. With five customizable buttons, navigation becomes intuitive through the user-friendly iCUE software.

The optical left and right click switches deliver precision and emit a satisfying crisp sound upon activation. The scroll wheel, known for its speed and precision, offers optimal resistance for precise control and is clickable, enabling seamless function assignment.

Depending on your hand preference, you can utilize the side buttons positioned on either the left or right side of the mouse for forward and backward actions, enhancing your in-game command. The iCUE software allows you to customize the side button functions to your liking.

Located at the base of the mouse is a DPI switch for on-the-fly adjustments. Additionally, the inclusion of two large PTFE glide pads ensures smooth, fluid movements, guaranteeing an uninterrupted gaming experience even during the most intense gaming sessions.

*In left-hand mode, use RIGHT FORWARD BUTTON (J) and RIGHT BACK BUTTON (K) instead.

Externally, the Corsair M75 features an RGB-lit Corsair logo on its rear and the subtle “M75” engraving on the top left side. Additionally, two more RGB zones adorn the top, adding a touch of customizable flair. Construction is top-notch, with a premium and ergonomic feel. When you hold it, you’ll notice the comfort it offers, and its smooth glide further enhances your overall gaming experience.

Features & Performance

The Corsair M75 Wired delivers performance on par the M75 Air. Equipped with the same MARKSMAN sensor, this wired version offers adjustable DPI settings up to 26,000, tracking speeds of 650 IPS, and acceleration capabilities of up to 50g. This sensor ensures impeccable tracking accuracy, with sensitivity settings customizable to your individual preferences.

Thanks to the Corsair iCue software, customization options abound. Fine-tune default DPI settings and seamlessly switch between them using the programmable buttons, once configured through the software.

During our extensive testing, the Corsair M75 showcased impressive performance, leaving us with highly favorable impressions. Its feather-light design facilitates swift movements with minimal effort, though prolonged use may cause some discomfort due to its lightweight build. Fortunately, its adaptability shines through, allowing for personalized adjustments tailored to your preferences via the iCue software.

The primary buttons, including the left and right click, offer precision and tactile feedback without being excessively loud. Conveniently placed side buttons and a matte, textured surface contribute to excellent grip. The scroll wheel not only features good resistance but also delivers precise control, further enhancing the value of this high-performance gaming mouse.

Corsair iCue Software

The Corsair iCue software serves as the ultimate control hub. Available for download directly from the Corsair website, this intuitive software offers plenty of customization options, allowing you to fine-tune your mouse settings according to your preferences.

Corsair M75 Verdict

The Corsair M75 is the wired, slightly cheaper version of the M75 Air we reviewed earlier. This is still a premium, ultra-lightweight wired gaming mouse designed for competitive gaming and precision. With its high-performance 26K DPI sensor and ambidexterity, it’s a versatile choice.

While it accommodates various hand sizes and grip types, thanks to its design and high-quality PTFE feet, the trade-off includes wired connectivity and potential discomfort during prolonged use due to its lightness.

Nonetheless, its precise performance and customizable features make it a compelling choice for gamers seeking an edge in competitive play.
