For years I have used this mouse, 3,000 hours of Arma 3, 700 of DayZ and many many more from other games. When the cable eventually breaks, I will fit a new USB, when the switches turn to mush I will solder in new switches.
I’m far from a fan boy, especially when it comes to Corsair but the Scimitar, best mouse I have had.


could be my tinfoil hat receiving thoughts via radio waves: maybe it’s by design? the coating will get grimy eventually, so the user is more likely to buy a new device.
It’s not really a tinfoil hat, it’s just the material.
Older mice were hard plastic, modern mice use soft touch plastic which is a coating. It wears off.
It’s kind of like cheap pleather after a couple years
You still had the rubberized grips on a lot of mice back in the day, that would just get sticky over time or get rubbed off. Not really much better.
not tinfoil at all, that’s a material choice that they made knowing what the result would be
this is intentional
