Corsair decided to equip the Glaive RGB with a Pixart PMW3367 sensor. The maximum resolution is 16000 DPI, which is more than enough for any kind of gamer. The optical sensor is placed in the center and you can go with 1 DPI increments up-to 16000 DPI. If you are looking for additonal weights, you will be disappointed, since this mouse does not allow for any customization in that direction. Corsair decided to provide the Glaive RGB with four, high-quality glide pads. Furthermore, the glide pads are made from teflon, which means they will last for a very long time. A closer look at the cable reveals that it has been braided with a black braid.
