The MCHOSE L7 Pro is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse. It has a small symmetrical shape, with a medium-sized hump that's positioned towards the rear of the solid plastic body. It features Omron Optical switches, a PixArt PAW3395 sensor, and a Realtek RTL8762GKH MCU. It supports a maximum polling rate of 8000Hz both wired and wirelessly using the included 2.4GHz receiver. You can also pair it using Bluetooth.

Our Verdict

7.0
Work 

The MCHOSE L7 Pro is a decent mouse for work, despite being primarily designed as a gaming mouse. It has good build quality overall, and you can remap its buttons to your liking using its web-based or downloadable companion software. You can connect to it wirelessly using a USB receiver or using Bluetooth. That said, it lacks useful productivity features like a free scrolling mode and L/R scroll wheel inputs.

Pros
  • Fantastic wireless versatility with both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz USB connectivity.

Cons
  • Scroll wheel lacks free scrolling and L/R tilt inputs.

9.3
Video Games (FPS) 

The MCHOSE L7 Pro is a remarkable FPS gaming mouse. Its incredible lightness makes it very easy to place and aim quickly and accurately. Its small symmetrical shape is well-suited for claw and fingertip grippers of medium-large to small hand sizes. It also delivers outstanding raw performance, making it suitable for gaming at any competitive level.

Pros
  • Incredible raw performance.

  • Exceptionally lightweight.

Cons
None
7.7
Video Games (MMO) 

The MCHOSE L7 Pro is good for MMO and MOBA gaming. It has good build quality, a comfortable symmetrical shape, and exceptional raw performance. That said, it doesn't have nearly as many side buttons as dedicated MMO mice.

Pros
  • Incredible raw performance.

Cons
  • Fewer additional buttons than dedicated MMO mice.

9.6

    Differences Between Sizes And Variants

    The MCHOSE L7 Pro is part of MCHOSE's L7 lineup. While all three models share the same shape, they have slightly different internal specifications. See the table below for more details.

    Model Colors Switches Sensor Battery Size Advertised Weight
    L7 White, Black, Blue Omron Mechanical PixArt PAW3395 250mAh 39g (± 2g)
    L7 Pro White, Black, Blue Omron Optical PixArt PAW3395 250mAh 39g (± 2g)
    L7 Ultra White, Black, Blue Omron Optical PixArt PAW3950 500mAh 46g (± 2g)

    We bought and tested the L7 Pro in White. See a photo of our unit's label.

    Popular Mouse Comparisons

    The MCHOSE L7 Pro is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse with a symmetrical shape and a solid plastic body. It's a small mouse with a medium-sized middle hump that's placed towards the rear. Its overall shape is very similar to the Pulsar X2V2 and the LAMZU Atlantis Mini, making it accommodating for claw and fingertip grips for most hand sizes. Performance-wise, it's fantastic, delivering raw performance and latency numbers that rival top performers like the Razer Viper V3 Pro and the like, despite its much lower price. That said, it does fall slightly short of the Razer and other flagships in terms of build quality and mouse feet. This mouse enters a crowded space of 'flagship killer' lightweight gaming mice like the Scyrox V6, Scyrox V8, and Hitscan Hyperlight. These are all excellent options, and worth buying if you'd like to save some money over the more expensive flagship models.

    For more recommendations, see our picks for the best FPS mouse, the best claw grip mouse, and the best lightweight mouse.

    Scyrox V6

    The Scyrox V6 and the MCHOSE L7 Pro are lightweight wireless gaming mice. The Scyrox has a higher profile shape with a centered middle hump, while the MCHOSE has a lower profile hump placed closer to the rear. This makes it better suited for a slightly more aggressive claw grip, or even fingertip, but the Scyrox has a more versatile shape overall. Beyond shape differences, the Scyrox has a slightly more solid-feeling build and better mouse feet, but both mice have similar fantastic raw performance. Additionally, the MCHOSE supports Bluetooth.

    MCHOSE L7 Ultra

    The MCHOSE L7 Pro and the MCHOSE L7 Ultra are lightweight gaming mouse in the same lineup. They share the same size and shape but have some minor hardware and performance differences. The L7 Ultra has a larger batttery capacity and uses a slightly newer PAW3950 sensor which helps contribute to its slightly better raw performance.

    ATTACK SHARK X3

    The MCHOSE L7 Pro is a better gaming mouse overall than the ATTACK SHARK X3. It's lighter, has better build quality, and has better overall performance than the ATTACK SHARK. That said, the ATTACK SHARK has better mouse feet than the MCHOSE.

    Hitscan Hyperlight

    The Hitscan Hyperlight and the MCHOSE L7 Pro are lightweight wireless gaming mice with symmetrical shapes. The two are similar in size, but the Hitscan has a higher profile center hump compared to the MCHOSE's rearward hump. Despite weight-saving cutouts in the bottom plate, the Hitscan has slightly better build quality than the MCHOSE. Both mice deliver fantastic gaming performance, but the MCHOSE has Bluetooth connectivity for added convenience.

    Build Quality

    The MCHOSE L7 Pro has good build quality overall. It's made of solid plastic with a matte 'Premium SuperGlide High-Performance Glass Coating'. It feels somewhat slippery when your hands are dry, but grips well once they start to perspire.

    While the mouse feels generally solid and well-built, its plastic shell is quite thin, and flexes considerably when you apply intentional force. You can even actuate both main click buttons if you press hard enough into the top shell. See a video of it here.

    The buttons are all fairly light and feel good to press, but there's a bit of post-travel to the main click buttons, making them feel slightly mushy.

    Lastly, this mouse has black PTFE feet, rather than the white 'virgin grade PTFE' that generally glides better.

    This mouse's symmetrical shape is quite similar to several recent popular mice. It's nearly identical to the Pulsar X2V2, but slightly smaller in every dimension. Compared to the LAMZU Atlantis Mini, it's also very similar, but it has more curvature at the front where the main click buttons are. Its rear hump is towards the back of the mouse and it has fairly flat sides. Its shape is well-suited for fingertip or claw grips, ideally for smaller- or medium-sized hands.

    This mouse has a 250 mAh battery. MCHOSE doesn't advertise a battery life figure. Based on mice we've seen with similar battery sizes, we'd estimate a 70-80-hour battery life at 1000Hz. This would increase at a lower polling rate or using Bluetooth, or decrease at higher polling rates like 4000Hz or 8000Hz. If you have this mouse and want to share your experience with the battery life, leave a comment.

    If you're interested in a wired-only alternative with a similar shape, check out the SteelSeries Rival 3 Gen 2.

    This mouse uses black-dyed PTFE feet that glide well across most surfaces. However, they aren't as smooth as top-tier, virgin-grade PTFE feet found on mice like the Razer Viper V3 Pro or the Ninjutso Sora V2.

    The MCHOSE L7 Pro has incredibly low and consistent click latency, providing an extremely responsive-feeling experience for playing games in any genre and at any competitive level.

    We tested it at its maximum wireless polling rate of 8000Hz with 'E-Sports Mode' on and at its lowest debounce setting.

    Note that changing the polling rate doesn't impact the click latency.
