Setting up the HARPOON RGB Wireless is instantaneous thanks to the SLIPSTREAM technology, which provides a stable, long-range signal that rivals wired connections. The contoured shape and rubber side grips provide a secure hold during intense MOBA sessions, while the lightweight 99g body allows for effortless gliding across the mousepad. Through the iCUE software, users can synchronize dynamic RGB lighting effects across their entire CORSAIR ecosystem and remap buttons to execute complex macros with a single click.
