The Corsair M95 unboxing and first look focuses on presenting an updated MMO gaming mouse that borrows heavily from the M90 while adding a high end 8200 DPI Avago ADNS sensor. The video begins by noting two color variants, black and white, and highlights the cosmetic and tactile differences between them, including a matte soft touch top on the black model and a textured grip on the sides. The presenter explains that the M95 maintains the M90’s ergonomic silhouette but enhances it with more buttons on the side, enabling a broader thumb reach for MMO play. A key hardware upgrade is the Avago ADNS 9800 sensor, capable of 8200 DPI, with a discussion on practical DPI benefits for multi monitor setups and the sensor’s surface-detection features. The unboxing proceeds to detail the physical build, including the grippy sides, a smooth top on the white variant, and Teflon pads on the bottom, designed to improve glide and longevity. The speaker also compares weight and lacks weight adjustment with the M65, arguing that the added button array justifies the slightly heavier design. Additional notes cover the dual back/forward buttons, a DPI profile switch with LED indicator, and the improved Corsair software that supports the M95 with smoother configuration options. The video closes with practical guidance on choosing between the M95 and other Corsair, or competing, models, emphasizing when the M95’s extra programmable buttons and modern sensor make it a compelling option for MMO gamers. Finally, the host encourages viewers to subscribe for more unboxings and reviews, and mentions the video was edited on a Kingston-powered workstation, finishing with remarks on cable length and overall impressions.
