Katar Pro XT
They say good things happen in threes
CORSAIR IS ONE of the biggest players in the peripheral game, and it has some iconic mice in its lineup, such as the M65 and the Scimitar. The Katar is also carving itself a place in the range, and in the hearts of its users. It may not have as many buttons or as many novelties as other Corsair mice, but that is part of the charm. It’s just a straight-shooting, simple mouse that a lot of FPS/MOBA users like. Think of the SteelSeries Sensei or the Logitech G203—the Katar is the Corsair flavor of these.
The shape is actually very similar to the Logitech G203. It’s great for clawgrip users. Fingertip users will also be happy with it—although the sides do look flat, they are in fact angled, so you can get a good grip for those crazy 360 noscopes the cool kids can do nowadays. The shape isn’t as good for palm users, but it is passable—the pointed rear and egg-like back just make it slightly less comfortable compared to other mice in the range. This isn’t particularly a bad thing: mice that try to be Jack-of-allgrips tend to be masters of none. The Katar Pro XT ticks the boxes for claw and fingertip grips, which is a win in our book.
