The new Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro boasts a number of changes. Some of these are cosmetic. For example it has a different side button layout and different mouse wheel texture. It also has MORE RGB than the last model, a touch more DPI but less buttons. It also has USB-C instead of Micro USB.
It's worth noting that this video is comparing the SE version with the new standard version (because they didn't send me the SE) but you still can get a wireless charging model too!

Thank you for the video, I was getting confused why some videos showed the sniper button and others didn't. Turns out it's 2 different mice 😅
Man, coming from the M65, I really wish they would've just cut the chord and made it wireless, I really liked the original sniper button.
Nice Video!!! Shows the main differences and nothing too technical which keeps the video nice and short.
Glad you liked it, hope you enjoyed enough to sub!
Any chance you could do a comparison between the corsair dark core rgb pro and the death adder v2? I cant decide which one to get.
Is this mouse a good choice for larger hands? right now i have the Scimitar and it feels just tiny like a laptop mouse. also the buttons are way to light, i cant even rest my fingers without constantly clicking the buttons.
Very good video....a friend of mine has the original Dark Core SE, I got the Pro SE....both very good mice!
So the Corsair dark core (se) is the one (without) the sniper button right?
How about a video on how to replace the battery, can't find a video on it.
How does this compare to the Nightsword? I find that mouse to be mostly comfortable. But I dont love the way the Forward/back buttons are placed and press.It seems like there is a lot of overlap between these two mice?
Bought the new mouse, feels great, good grip and lighting with amazing battery life,
I just got the Dark Core pro a week ago. I'm new to the gaming mouse and keyboard world so I was pretty Shocked when the mouse died after a day or two. I've been used to Logitech productivity mice that use 2 AA batteries and last for over a year with pretty heavy use. But I can't complain about the way this mouse fits in my hand. It is phenomenal.
you should get a glorious model D
The rgb lighting will probably drain the battery fast if it's constantly on.
Not sure if you're still reading the comments on this video, Prawn, but the amazon links you provided for the newer version of the mouse is not actually the newer version. It's the original Dark Core SE.
Oh poop. Really? I'll have a look. Thanks.
Really wish they had kept the sniper button, its the only reason why I haven't upgraded my broken m65, had even purchased the dark core pro from newegg and when I noticed they had removed the sniper button I cancelled my order and got a refund...
I am returning my (unopened) Logitech G604 and getting the pro version. Tried today at bestbuy and loved it. The extra pinky rest is amazing.
I was gonna buy 604 today until I touched this mouse I have big hands the pinky rest is a good send
@@mikhailvershinin2292 I agree but I decided to keep my G604 still currently using it. I like it.
50 hours without the rgb. with the rgb it says 18 but im sure its less! i ahve the dark core se and it usually dies after 13-13:30 hours with rgb... i was considering buying the dark core pro se but alas i dont think the small differences between those 2 arent worth it!
The up to 50 hours is via bluetooth without the lights on, through the 2.4Ghz and lights on it's around that time - something that's often overlooked.. I realise you commented a year ago, haha
I have a question about the Dark Core RGB Pro. Is the scroll wheel notched or is it a smooth scroll?
You mean like tactile scroll?
@@TheProvokedPrawn Yes!
It's not super tactile but it's not smooth either. See here czcams.com/video/Qq_3Tkf62S0/video.html
2 days ago my almost 4 years old Dark Core SE died of old age. I send it to store where I bought because I got extended warranty there. They said this mice is no longer avalaible so they can give me refund. 7th April 2020 (one and half year ago from now) this mice had refresh design and producer launched hers newer version called PRO. Well... I will not lie about my hidden desire to buy this newer version ^_^ Now I have good reason to buy Dark Core RGB Pro SE (also extended warranty).
P.S. Thx for comparison. It helped me to understand differences between them. Left a like button! Cheers!
Would you say that this mouse is on the smaller end or larger end?
Medium. Not small, not big either.
The Provoked Prawn
Ok, thanks.
Love this
Hope you enjoyed enough to subscribe 😁
wait is the new one the one with the worn-out looking scroll wheel I get sometimes confused lol
The new one is on the right. :)
@@TheProvokedPrawn ok thanks
It's not worn out, it's surface is much smoother. The mouse wheel on the old one is horrible imo. It takes way too much pressure to press and scrolling is very rigid and clicky. The new one is much smoother and the button depresses effortlessly. This made the old design a big no-go for me. I use my mouse wheel button constantly.
I’m new to PC gaming so I’m getting use to keyboard and mouse on FPS
i love my rgb se had it about 3 years ....the scroll wheel buggered up a few weeks ago ...and i was surprised to learn they are of £50 now ....so bought another one :D
Sad it went wrong, but bonus :)
I need a wireless mouse for my laptops, I think this might be the one
I just bought The Non pro version im gonna send It back and pay 10$ more and get The pro version😁 havnt unboxed It yet
What switches are they using? I'm not buying another mouse with Omron switches. Can't fool me twice.
Really? What's the issue. Yes, Omron switches. Other specs in the description.
it's double clicking issue right? i'm worried about the same issue here
Is the Thumbrest irritating?
That's going to be personal preference, I love it.
the the dark core se
Returned this mice the day I got it. Honestly didn't think a mouse could be so bad.
Why is that?
no sniper button? ridiculous!
yeah, weird move eh?
@@TheProvokedPrawn super weird, actually I have to replace my Dark Core and end up buying the non pro Refurbished to stick to the sniper button!
@@darndarndarn Have you seen my M65 Ultra Wireless video? Might be a valid alternative.
@@TheProvokedPrawn is just i have everything Corsair, so I can use the profile button to change my rgb setup hehe-
@@TheProvokedPrawn oh wait! Its corsair too i thought it was Logitech! Ill take a look at it!
I have the dark core se its 16k dpi and wireless charging
how do you like it?
@@LoHMysticAgent it's nice not as high dp as pro but I use the charging mousepad. It's nice n lasts a while
I think its 10k dpi pro is 16k
@@dnsean03 I saw the dark core se and the dark core pro se at the same price on the Corsair website. Not sure which one I would want.
@@LoHMysticAgent if you use the chi wireless mouse pad then u want dark core se
I like your presentation and B-roll shots but would be great if you spoke about 10% faster. :P
Hmmm, sorry to disappoint. Try playing at 1.25 speed? 😆
Set Playback speed to 1.5x and you wont fall asleep :)
Or watch it before bed every night
The new version is pure garbage, lift the mouse and put it down like when you play a game, then you put it down a bit harder that normal without being harmfull to the mouse and the impact will activate left or right mouse button, and it happens every time, i had to return my first, the replacement ive got had the exact same problem. The old version was muuuuuch more stable. I dont know how many times i have teamkilled or teamdamaged my m8 with the plastic nightmare i used to love corsairs dark core SE, but the new one is made very very bad.
bad battery,side buttons only for people with really looooong thumb,palm area creeking made from best chinesium plastics thats my review
Are you drunk while recording videos?
Obviously
sounds sober at 1.5 xD
@@Mursalin22 actually true
the worse into I heard in my life nope wont sub im out
