The Cooler Master MM710 is an excellent ultra-light gaming mouse. It's one of the lightest mice we've tested, thanks to its honeycomb pattern that covers the entire mouse, not just the top, and is great for gaming thanks to its low click latency and customizable CPI and polling rate. While the mouse can be used for any grip type, its smaller size means it may not be the best choice for people with larger hands. Unfortunately, the L/R buttons wobble from side to side, and the side buttons can be clicked by squeezing the mouse's frame, which is concerning.

Our Verdict

0.0
Office/Multimedia 

The Cooler Master MM710 mouse is okay for office use. While its lightweight, ambidextrous design will be comfortable enough for most people to use all day, its build quality is questionable. It feels sturdy enough, but the side buttons can be pressed by squeezing the mouse's frame, which is concerning. It's also a smaller mouse and may not be suitable for people with larger hands.

Pros
  • Very lightweight.
  • Excellent performance.
  • Software allows for a ton of customization.
  • Ambidextrous design is good for all grip types.
Cons
  • Too small for people with larger hands.
  • Side buttons can be activated by squeezing the mouse frame below them, which is concerning.

Video Games (FPS) 

The Cooler Master MM710 is a great mouse for FPS gaming. Its click latency is very good, and it has outstanding overall sensor performance. You can customize both its CPI and polling rate to suit your personal preferences, and it's comfortable enough for long gaming marathons. Unfortunately, it's a smaller mouse, so those with larger hands may be better off looking elsewhere.

Pros
  • Very lightweight.
  • Excellent performance.
  • Software allows for a ton of customization.
  • Ambidextrous design is good for all grip types.
Cons
  • Too small for people with larger hands.
  • Side buttons can be activated by squeezing the mouse frame below them, which is concerning.

Video Games (MMO) 

The Cooler Master MM710 is great for MMO games. While it only has two extra buttons, which is less than most dedicated MMO mice, they are both programmable, as well as the right-click, the mouse wheel click, and the up-and-down scroll of the mouse wheel. The mouse is lightweight and comfortable, though it isn't recommended for people with larger hands, and has excellent sensor performance.

Pros
  • Very lightweight.
  • Excellent performance.
  • Software allows for a ton of customization.
  • Ambidextrous design is good for all grip types.
Cons
  • Too small for people with larger hands.
  • Side buttons can be activated by squeezing the mouse frame below them, which is concerning.

Ultra-Light Gaming 

The Cooler Master MM710 is an excellent mouse for ultra-light gaming. It's one of the lightest mice that we've tested so far and has outstanding performance. Its ambidextrous design will be comfortable in every grip, though people with larger hands may be better off with a slightly bigger mouse. While the mouse is made of dense plastic, unfortunately, the side buttons can be activated by squeezing the frame below them, which is concerning.

Pros
  • Very lightweight.
  • Excellent performance.
  • Software allows for a ton of customization.
  • Ambidextrous design is good for all grip types.
Cons
  • Too small for people with larger hands.
  • Side buttons can be activated by squeezing the mouse frame below them, which is concerning.

Travel 

The Cooler Master MM710 isn't recommended for travel. While it isn't as large as some other mice, it's wired-only, making it more difficult to store.

Pros
  • Very lightweight.
  • Excellent performance.
  • Software allows for a ton of customization.
  • Ambidextrous design is good for all grip types.
Cons
  • Too small for people with larger hands.
  • Side buttons can be activated by squeezing the mouse frame below them, which is concerning.

    Popular Mouse Comparisons

    The Cooler Master MM710 is an amazing ultra-light gaming mouse and is one of the lightest we've tested. Unfortunately, there are reports of build quality issues, which we did get with our unit, where the buttons rattle. On the upside, its performance is amazing, and it's great for people with smaller hands.

    See our recommendations for the best mouse, the best wired mouse, and the best FPS mouse.

    Cooler Master MM711

    Track

    The Cooler Master MM710 and the Cooler Master MM711 are very similar ultra-light gaming mice; the only difference is that the MM711 has RGB lighting in the scroll wheel and palm region, making it heavier. Unfortunately, the MM710 we tested also has numerous build quality issues. Comparatively, the MM711 has excellent build quality and doesn't suffer from the same problems. Both mice share the same shape and size and are well-suited primarily for smaller hands and all grip types.

    GLORIOUS Model O

    Track

    The Cooler Master MM710 is similar to the GLORIOUS Model O. They're both ultra-light gaming mice with a honeycomb pattern, though the Cooler Master is slightly lighter. Both mice perform similarly, but the Cooler Master can be customized to have a higher CPI. The GLORIOUS feels better-built, but it's a larger mouse that's better suited for those with larger hands, while the Cooler Master will be better for people with small or medium-sized hands.

    Cooler Master MM720

    Track

    The Cooler Master MM720 is better than the Cooler Master MM710. They're very similar and feature the same sensor, but the MM720 is lighter. It also feels more comfortable and has more programmable buttons. However, the MM710 has an ambidextrous design, if that's what you prefer.

    Cooler Master CM110

    Track

    The Cooler Master MM710 is an excellent ultra-light gaming mouse, while the Cooler Master CM110 is a good budget gaming mouse. The MM710 has a honeycomb body making it much lighter. It also has a much better cable and smoother-gliding mouse feet. Performance-wise it has a wider CPI range, an adjustable CPI, a much lower lift-off distance, and customization software. Comparatively, the CM110 feels sturdier, has three RGB lighting zones, and has much better click latency. Both mice are ideal for all grip types and best suited for smaller hands. However, the MM710 is also accommodating to large hands using some grip types.
