Reinforcing the HyperX mouse range with a fourth model, the Pulsefire Core is a simple and effective mouse. It could convince more than one person thanks to its selling price of less than €40. Provided of course that you ensure the essentials…
A cheap alternative to the Pulsefire Surge, this Pulsefire Core with limited ambitions on paper performs relatively well in practice. Very easy to handle due to its lightness and its excellent glide, not very tiring to use for long hours, it nevertheless suffers from a few details: a lack of grip, an acceleration of the movements of the sensor impossible to deactivate, a symmetrical design but a design not -ambidextrous and software that deserves a little more care and richness. Sold for around forty euros, it will have difficulty finding a place in a popular segment where the Logitech G403 Prodigy or Corsair Saber Optique reign supreme, alongside of course the essential G502 Proteus Spectrum from Logitech.
