Cooler Master MM711 White 60G RGB Gaming Mouse with Lightweight Honeycomb Shell, Ultralight Ultraweave Cable, Pixart 3389 16000 DPI Optical Sensor

Due to the design of the clicks, sometimes the skin of my ring finger gets in the gap between the button and the mouse and even prevents me from right clicking. This, of course, may be due to the way I hold it. But, I think it would be better if the gap was higher or even on the top of the mouse.

Cooler Master MM711 is a great ultra-light gaming mouse. It is a honeycomb plastic body, making it very lightweight, but it feels very sturdy. It has an ambidextrous shape well-suited to all grip types, but due to its small size, I recommend it for small and medium-sized hands. It also has low click latency, a very low lift-off distance, and a wide CPI range. This mouse also has RGB lighting in the scroll wheel and around the palm. All in all a very good mouse for gaming

Great mouse for FPS since it is lightweight. Allows great flicking and control. Only issue is that it can get jittery from being light. I think a way to combat this is to have a more powerful light at the bottom to make up to allow more precision. All in all, with a clean mouse pad, it’s amazing. It isn’t the most ergonomic and long hour uses multiple days can cause your wrist to hurt but it is great to use for long hours a few days a week.

Going from the G502 to the MM710 felt like I took off my training weights. What a world of difference. 2 years later, my MM710 is still going strong (despite my sweaty palms) and my G502 is still collecting dust.

The updated MM710 is almost perfect. The Good - The updated version includes tapered teflon pads for a smooth experience right out of the box. The cord is nice and loose with good paracord as before, I do wish that it didnt come so bunched up but if you carefully massage out the kinks you will not have longevity issues with the cord. Mouse is a good shape for small hand palm grippers, but also good for larger hands that want to use claw or fingertip grip, particularly if you like resting a part of your hand on the mouse. I am personally a palm grip user, so this type of form factor is much more comfortable than the Razer or lightweight Logitech mice that did not allow for easy palm grip. This mouse is super light, your aim will suffer for a while as you get used to it, I would flick too far. However, after getting used to it, high speed movements are effortless. This is probably one of the lightest mice available out of the box aside from the Finalmouse Ultralight, which is almost always sold out, and is 2.5x the price. It appears that build quality by and large has been improved to a significant degree, the updated version (at least mine anyway) does not have the general rattling/creaking body and wheels that the prior versions had. The button wobble also seems to have been eliminated. The clicks of the individual buttons feel crisp and good in the hand. I wont even really talk about the sensor, as most gaming mice now have such good sensors that they are accurate beyond the realm of human detection. The Bad - The post-travel is still truly awful. If you palm grip like I do, then your fingers will be pressing on the mouse towards the front end, and you dont even need to press all that hard to have that terrible post travel. The button creaks and then travels down further, even causing it to fake click again due to the levering of the mouse button downwards at the tip, while raising the back end up the mouse button. Its terribly distracting, and makes it sometimes impossible to rapidly click in high-intensity situations. There are many solutions out there. I simply put in some cut up zip ties with double sided tape, bending the zip ties a little to contour to the shape of the mouse buttons. It seems thats all thats necessary now that they appeared to have fixed most of the button wobble and wheel rattling. However, the fact that I have to do that when it could have been fixed from the factory so very easily with a little lip of extra plastic at the tip is disappointing. As a minor issue, the mouse body does flex somewhat when you squeeze it with significant pressure that I would not expect most people to actually do in real life use. When Im holding the mouse up in both of my hands and I squeeze the side, I can cause the forward and backward mouse buttons to click without physically touching the buttons. However, I found this very, very difficult to do when I use the mouse normally. Considering how light this mouse is, some structural strength is expected to be lost, but it is not noticeable in normal use. The software for the mouse still needs a few more features in my opinion, but all the important features are there, such as lift off distance, angle tuning, surface tuning, disabling DPI steps. I wish that the software had a DPI Shift feature like the Logitech Gaming Software does where it only changes the DPI as long as the button is being held down. Another weird software quirk I see is that when you press the DPI button, it doesnt change DPI right away, sometimes I have to stop the mouse for a second to let it think and then it goes back. Its super weird and not very responsive. Overall minor complaint. Coolermaster still appears to be updating the software, so well see what kind of features they might add. TL;DR - Mouse is almost perfect, good for smaller hands and most grips, likely lightest mouse available at this time. Button-post travel is still terrible, but easily fixed. Minor mouse body flex, not noticeable in normal use. Software still needs more development, but it appears CoolerMaster is working on it.

All the buttons and scroll wheel on my copy feel tight and clicky. No detectable rattle in normal use. So many reviewers have criticized the quality of this mouse, but that was when it was new. My experience buying this mouse a few years later was the complete opposite. This mouse is excellent. Great weight, nice shape, good feet, light and flexible cable, buttons feel solid. The complaints I have a very minor. The cable twists, the feet have sharp corners (no problems caused there yet), side button shape is kind of weird (not detrimental to gameplay). and the bulky rear end is a bit much for fingertip grip (for me, anyway. Your experience may vary. My hands are about 18cm long). If you like symmetrical claw grip mice, this is an excellent budget option. Would also work in fingertip for larger hands Im sure.

[*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*

Ive been using MX Master 3 for office work and gaming and this mouse is too heavy. When the first time I use MM710 it feels like nothing. Very happy about this mouse.

Note: I had to return my first unit because it bricked during the software update. Update it with the wireless dongle first and DO NOT touch anything until its done updating. Amazon made replacing it a breeze, so no worries there. CMs rma wouldve taken weeks but amazon got me a replacement in a few days. Review: Coolermaster really upped their game with this one! If you tried the old mm710 or 11, this thing is a cut above both. A few notable changes: - the holes are gone! - its wireless but the included cable is still usable - the coating is so much nicer than its predecessors, fairly similar to the new viper pro or DAV3. - its solid, no creaking, cracking, rattling and it just feels premium in the hand. - the mouse feet are WAYYYY better than the ones they used on the 710 and 711, dont need to replace them. Although, they are slightly scratchy out of the box. If youre new to this lineup, the shape may be jarring. It fills the hand similarly to the xm1 but is much narrower and shorter but the rear end is plumper if that makes sense. Its like if the viper mini got a butt lift lol. If I remember, my hands are 19x10 and I relaxed claw/fingertip this incredibly comfortably. This ones my new main and for the price, it honestly blows some of the competitors out of the water. Coolermaster really out did themselves here!

Pros This mouse has remarkable build quality despite its lightweight feel. I have none of the QC issues that others have mentioned (mine was a later batch). After 6 months of moderate use, I have no complaints. All the buttons and wheel feel tight and have to sway or flimsiness to them. My aim has improved at least 20% over my heavier G305 that is 20-30g heavier. Also, I should note that this is partially a function of the fact that I experienced pinky drag on the G305 - I experience no pinky drag on the 711 despite it being a small mouse, too. I think the sides on the 711 have a slightly larger surface area with help prevent pinky slippage. This is a big deal for me. Consider going with the glossy model to prevent buildup that occurs much more easily/quickly on matte mice (buildup occurs very quickly on my matte G305). Cons - Has a cord (can be fixed with a mouse bungee) - Not the greatest RGB, DPI software in the world (but I just leave my RGB on color oscillate so I dont even use this software anymore).
