Corsair unveils its first ever glass mousepad

Corsair is officially expanding its presence in the peripheral market with a refresh of its MM mousepad family. The new lineup introduces three distinct tiers, headlined by the company's first foray into the premium glass segment: the MM Glass Large. 

Measuring 400mm x 500mm, the MM Glass Large is the flagship of the range. Constructed from tempered glass, it features a 0.2μm micro-etched surface to provide maximum speed without the “skating” feeling that can lead to a lack of control. To address common complaints regarding glass pads, Corsair has applied a matte sound-dampening treatment to reduce the high-pitched “clacking” of mouse feet. The pad is held in place by a 1mm polyurethane base and features CNC-sculpted rounded edges to prevent cable snagging.

For those who prefer a more traditional feel, the MM Pro Control offers a cloth alternative. These pads utilise a high-density, micro-textured woven surface. Unlike the thinner glass model, the Pro Control features a 4mm-thick polyurethane base, providing significant cushioning for the user's wrist. These pads are hand-washable and feature stitched anti-fray edges for added longevity.

Completing the lineup is the MM Anti-Fray Cloth series. These pads feature a micro-weave surface. Unlike the polyurethane bases of the higher tiers, these rely on a natural rubber foundation. This series offers the broadest range of sizes, spanning from Medium (320mm x 300mm) to 3XL (1220mm x 590mm), ensuring there is an option for you, no matter the size of your desk.

All mousepads are now available in black and grey. The MM Glass Large hits the retail market at £89.99/$99.99/€99.99, the MM Pro Control Medium at £24.99/$29.99/€29.99, the MM Pro Control Large at £49.99/$59.99/€54.99, and the MM Anti-Fray Cloth starting at £11.99/$12.99/€12.99 for the Medium size.

KitGuru says: Corsair's entry into the glass mousepad space is a significant milestone. At £90, it's a premium investment, but one that promises to outlast many cloth pads.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
