Cooler Master MM710 Review - Is It TOO LIGHT For A Gaming Mouse

The MM710: A Surprisingly Impressive Gaming Mouse from Cooler Master

I have to be honest with you guys, I was very skeptical of Cooler Master delivering on their promises with the MM710. We even trolled them at Computex by bringing a scale to their booth and measuring the weight, but since its arrival to my mouse mat, I'm happy to report that it has not left me disappointed so far.

Firstly, the good news is that the MM710 is now available to purchase today for $50. This means that this awesome gaming mouse is no longer on pre-order, and you can get your hands on it right away. For those who may be interested in getting their hands on the MM710, I'll outline some of its key features.

One of the standout features of the MM710 is its superlight form factor, weighing only 53 grams. This makes it an ideal choice for FPS gamers who want a mouse that won't weigh them down during intense gaming sessions. Additionally, the MM710 is wider than some of its competitors, making it more accessible and affordable than overhyped gaming mice like the FinalMouse Ultralight Tube.

Now, I know what you're thinking - will this tiny mouse hold up to your heavy-handed gaming needs? Rest assured that the MM710 has a very comfortable shape for my hand size, with not too aggressive top curves. This makes it easy to grip and maneuver during intense gaming sessions. The ambidextrous shell means that both left- and right-handers can use it, although the thumb buttons are only designed for the right hand.

To keep the weight as low as possible, Cooler Master has opted out of illumination on this mouse, unlike some of its competitors like the Glorious Model O. However, I'm really into the whole matte black set for my desk top, and the exposed nature of the shell means that internal components are coated for protection against dust and moisture.

Now, I do want to address some build quality concerns from early units. The primary buttons still exhibit a little bit of wobble, but not as severe as before. It seems like the side shell has been reinforced because pressing into it no longer activates the side switches. Unfortunately, that internal rattle that everyone else has experienced is still present on my retail unit.

Despite this, I have no complaints about button placement or feel, and the scrollwheel is excellent with defined steps. The DPI shift is tucked away from accidental presses, and the thumb buttons have satisfying tactility and softness when pressed. Primary switches also have a fast travel to feel that's really similar to my Model O - excellent all around.

The feet of the MM710 are made of white PTFE with super smooth glide, which is smoother than my Model O, the Razer Viper, or even the Logitech G Pro. The cable is their ultra-weave cable for Wireless-like feel, and it's awesome! Finally, the sensor is a PixArt 3389, offering seven DPI levels at one hundred dpi increments with two lift-off distance adjustments and surface calibration in the software.

Personally, I was a bit surprised at how similar this thing feels to my G Pro from Logitech and just how uncomfortable the Model O feels compared to the MM710. The good news is that the MM710 is available to purchase today, and it's relatively inexpensive at only $50. If you're looking for an affordable gaming mouse with a superlight form factor, then this is definitely worth checking out.

If you're looking into the MM710, you probably want something small too, as this thing is one of the smallest mice in my collection now. I'm coming from the Model O, and that thing feels like an elephant compared to the MM710. A more appropriate size comparison would be the G Pro from Logitech, which is about the same length and width at its widest point as the MM710.

The MM710 is definitely a comfortable shape for my hand size with not too aggressive top curves. It doesn't feel too flat, and for my hybrid grip, everything just feels well-in place. Despite the ambidextrous shell, the thumb buttons are only for the right hand, which might be a drawback for some users.

Overall, I'm impressed with the MM710, and it's definitely worth checking out if you're in the market for a new gaming mouse. Stay tuned for the epic battle between the MM710 and the Glorious Model O, and make sure to check out this other visual goodness!
