Our Verdict

ASUS ROG Keris Wireless

MSI CLUTCH GM41 LIGHTWEIGHT WIRELESS

The ASUS ROG Keris Wireless and the MSI CLUTCH GM41 LIGHTWEIGHT WIRELESS are comparable wireless gaming mice. The ASUS feels much sturdier and has a more flexible charging cable with a USB-C connector, while the MSI cable has an older Micro-USB connector. The ASUS also has lower click latency, hot-swappable L/R click switches, and Bluetooth Support, which the MSI lacks. On the other hand, the MSI is marginally lighter and has a higher maximum CPI range. It also has a lower minimum lift-off distance. Both mice are suitable for all grip types, but the ASUS has a right-handed shape, while the MSI has an ambidextrous shape.
