Greater than one weekIts a budget mouse thats emulating the more higher end stuff. If you dont want to spend 100+ for a lightweight mouse, say the ultra light 2 by final mouse for instance, then this is your best bet. I think this mouse suits all play styles, but it depends on your hand size. Like, say if you have bigger hands(like me) and you play fingertip grip then you should be fine. If you have smaller hands you can play comfortably with palm grip. Claw grip is a sort of middle ground for hand sizes on this mouse I think. Material wise, I think the MM710 holds up to its claims, because it really does stay clean and dust proof. There are some downfalls you could run into, BUT its only because this mouse is budget. I feel the MM710 gets a lot of unnecessary scrutiny over the squishy RMB/LMB mouse switches(only when you press down hard on them) and the overall build quality feeling like a toy. I mean thats whats should be expected of the product; Its a no-brainer in that regard. My only problem with the mouse is that the side button switches can definitely be triggered by simply squeezing the side of the mouse, but this is an issue that directly relates to the overall build quality of the mouse; A design flaw~ if you will. I still think the MM710 is a great competitor in the lightweight gaming mouse market despite the flaws cause of what it offers to the masses. Find a way to grip it such that you dont trigger the side button switches and the mouse is a dream to use if lightweight mouses are your thing or if youre looking to get into these archetypes of mouses. Id have to say this mouse is a huge step up from my Logitech g502 Proteus. Not perfect, but my aim has improved significantly whilst using a 165hz monitor(overwatch, apex legends, you name it) so a solid 3.5-4 stars out of 5 for me.

Greater than one weekThe mouse is feel quite small. Its not extra small by any means. However, it lack supports for ring finger and its a little too light without any stickiness to the surface. I got the gloss white and its quite slick. Its a really narrow mouse, if you have fairly large hands, it might not be for you. Also since theres practically no weight and no place to rest your ring and pinky, its really tiring to use for long period of time. Tracking is awesome. Its a quality mouse, but if you have fairly large and wide hands, wait/order the mm720. As you can see in my photo, the MX Master while chunky, its much more comfortable. I believe the mm720 will be close to the MX Master.

Greater than one week[*UPDATE* Right after I posted this review, I started to issues with the wireless reliability. I deducted one star as it can still be used normally, but not in a competitive environment. The latency is not an issue, but I started having jagged-ness in large arm swipes that I could see and feel. It definitely has some polling issues that need to be sorted. See the photos at the end to show polling stability compared to an Xtrfy MZ1 Wireless. Hopefully it is something that can be solved with future firmware updates.] I felt like writing this review just because I felt it deserved some recognition for how great it really is. I was a big fan of the MM711 when it first came out. The shape was unique and the weight was extremely impressive. I stopped using it mostly because of the switches being inconsistent and the build quality was not the greatest. I had always been hoping they would make a version of this shape, but with a better build quality and better switches. They honestly exceeded my expectations with this new MM712. Ill go through all the changes that I think are worth mentioning from the MM711 to MM712. 1. Wireless. The wireless tech on this mouse is perfect for me. I have not had a single drop-out mid game or anything odd. Ive been using it for probably around a month in a competitive environment and in day-to-day use and havent had a single issue. 2. Hole-less design. The previous MM711 had holes to reduce the weight of the mouse. Having no holes helps the mouse be more comfortable to use for long periods of time and also helps with build quality issues. I definitely prefer having a solid shell, especially on the sides of the mouse. 3. Coating. This is an underrated change I think. The coating on this mouse is so much better than the MM711. The MM711 has this really smooth plastic-y feel that was just really slippery over time and just not the most confidence inspiring grip. This version has a high quality feel slightly textured surface that grips up a lot when you start to get a little sweaty when gaming. Its very good in my opinion. 4. Mouse 1 and 2 switches. The MM711 had some Omron switches that felt okay, but I think because of the build quality of the mouse, it had really inconsistent/mushy feeling clicks. In some games that have really heavy flicking, it would be obvious that your flicks sometimes would just not be where you wanted them to be because of the clicks. The MM712 has optical switches that are nice and consistent. If you have used Kahlil 8.0 switches in the past, you know how they quickly degrade over time. These have felt the exact same since I got the mouse and have never had a moment where I felt like I was held back because of the switches not working correctly. Now for the things that I would like to see changed (which isnt a whole lot honestly). The side buttons are a little stiff in my opinion. Im not sure what switches they are, but they are okay at least. The rear side button takes more force the further you press towards the back of the mouse. I would like it to be the same force required to actuate it on all sides of the button. Not a huge deal. Another thing is the mouse wheel clicking down force. Its also a little stiffer than I would personally prefer. I use that button to ping in some games and it takes a pretty significant amount of force to actuate the scroll wheel click. Again not a huge deal since it still works perfectly, but the force required should definitely be a little bit less. Another issue I have is one that I havent noticed before on any mouse. At first I thought my mouse sensor was dying because the liftoff distance felt like it was changing and wasnt working correctly, but I found out later that it was because there was dust building up right on top of the mouse sensor at the bottom of the mouse. Ive never had that happen before on a mouse before, but it seems to happen pretty quickly on this mouse. I would recommend blowing out the dust like every day or so to make sure there isnt any on the sensor. Not sure what causes that to happen to some mice and not others, but that would be a small thing I would try and remedy as well (maybe thicker mouse feet would help mouse go over the dust and not pick it up? Not sure). Also a couple small things I would like to see updated would be a battery indicator on the wireless dongle, since most of the time I have the lighting effects turned off on the mouse to save battery life. Having it on the dongle would help not use nearly as much battery life as having it on the mouse, and its still easily in view. I believe Razer has implemented this recently. Also sometimes I have a small software issues or something where if I changed the input on my USB switch, the lighting turns back on for some reason. Its almost like it selects a different profile for my mouse or something. I have to go back to my main PC and open the software back up to turn it back off. Not sure why this happens, but a small thing none the less. Usually happens if I click my USB switch to changes devices too fast. As much as people want to tell you that you need the top of the line mouse and spend 150+ dollars to be good at a video game, I can tell you right now you just do not need to spend that kind of money on a gaming mouse. This mouse is 70 dollars and checks basically every box the top dogs have. The only difference is they use a 3370 sensor instead of the 3395 (current gen as of this review) and some use 4K polling vs 1K polling on this mouse. As someone who takes gaming pretty competitively, you just will not be a better gamer on a more expensive mouse just because it has a better sensor or higher polling than 1k. The Cooler Master team for the mouse peripheral side of things should be proud of making this mouse. Its leaps and bounds of an iteration improvement over the last generation. Im glad they bounced back with this after the MM731 debacle. Good job *thumbs up*

> 3 dayI purchased this product because I heard it was extremely light and it worked well. When I got the product, I wasnt disappointed. Ths shell is very light and surprisingly not flimsy. I heard lots of reviews saying that the shell is super cheap and weak, but mine came with no issues. The sensor and buttons are great and work fantastically. My only problem with this mouse comes in the scroll wheel. When I first got it, the scrolling was really good. However, after a months of use, there is an audible squeak coming when scrolling down. Not a huge issue, I highly recommend this product for anybody who wants a lightweight gaming mouse.

> 3 dayUPDATE: just under 6mo of ownership and the right click intermittently becomes unresponsive. For gaming its very problematic. If youre playing a game where you need to quick scope and it doesnt register the click it makes it very unenjoyable and difficult. It doesnt do it in back to back clicks but it does happen unexpectedly even though you can hear the click so you know mechanically its pressed. Still a fantastic mouse but I have to drop a star because I have never had a mouse die this quick. Also, Im 6ft with probably average sized hands for my height and the mouse is a bit small. I have melee set to the most forward thumb button and I find myself accidentally pressing it despite my best effort to reposition my hand. I am going to order a Glorious mouse in the larger size and hope thats the end of my mouse purchases for a while. This is seriously the best mouse I have ever used. I wanted a FinalMouse but its always out of stock or resold for insane prices. So I bought this Cooler Master mouse as an alternative to the FinalMouse and have to say I cant imagine going back to my junky g403. I see a lot of love for the g403 on Reddit and other places but the new ghub software for Logitech products is horrible and doesnt see my Logitech devices half the time so once that mouse stopped working (left click became inconsistent while held down) I knew it was my chance to get away from that GHub software. Im so glad I gave this one a chance. I play competitive first person shooters like Overwatch, CSGO, Valorant, and COD. I have been making my adjustment to this mouse as its a little smaller than the g403 and feels lighter because of both the mouse weight and the cord weight. I cant stress how significant of a difference it is to have a lightweight super flexible cord on a mouse. Its literally like having yarn as your cord. My g403 cord always got in the way and felt stiff so there was always this friction present when moving the mouse. But now it legit feels like I am using a wireless mouse. If you want a super lightweight and COMFORTABLE mouse and if you cant stand feeling the weight of a wired mouse cable being pulled around and dont want to spend a ton of money then this is the mouse. I still plan on buying a FinalMouse one day but not because this one isnt sufficient. Purely because its said to be the absolute best in the industry. But if youre stuck and FinalMouse is out of stock give this one a shot. Im so happy I did!
