Introduction
Corsair has revealed three new gaming mice at CES 2019, and the Harpoon RGB Wireless is the smallest and least expensive of these. This mouse has a wired predecessor with the same shape, but this time around, the internals are vastly different. The Harpoon RGB Wireless features a PixArt PMW3325 optical sensor, Omron D2FC-F-K switches rated for 50 million clicks, RGB lighting, and a 840 mAh built-in battery that can last up to 60 hours. The mouse has three main modes; it can connect via Corsair's Slipstream 2.4 GHz wireless technology, Bluetooth, and its cable, of course.

Packaging
All three new Corsair mice share the same style of packaging even though their size differs a bit. The Harpoon RGB Wireless comes in a black and yellow box that features the standard technical specifications and information, as well as some render pictures and marketing text here and there. There is no front door that can be flipped open to a plastic window thankfully—this simpler form of packaging is more elegant in my opinion, and it's environmentally friendlier too. The contents of the box are the mouse itself and some warranty, setup, and disposal guides—there are no extra mouse feet, unfortunately.
