Cooler Master MM310 Gaming

- Fingertip grip, 90% wrist aimer - DPI around 1800-2200 depending on mouse - Lenovo Legion mouse pad - Current mouse: MM710, gloss black coating Despite it’s bad build quality, my MM710 is easily my favorite mouse of all time, so the idea of getting a wireless version of that mouse with optical switches made me very excited. Unfortunately, Cooler Master has made a product that appears to be an across the board upgrade on paper, but in hand is actually worse in almost every way. Positives - The build quality is a MASSIVE leap over the MM710 and easily competes with the likes of Logitech or Razer while costing much less. - The weight balance of the mouse feels great. Doesn’t feel front or back heavy at all to me. - When waking from sleep, the mouse connects almost instantly. Some wireless mice have issues with this and I appreciate that this one doesn’t. - USB C connection. I know it’s becoming the standard, but it’s always nice to see. - The main clicks aren’t as mushy as the MM710. They’re much more solid and snappy. Negatives - The coating is not nearly as grippy as the glossy coating on my MM710. It’s difficult for me to maintain a solid grip on the mouse, which means I’m constantly having to adjust my fingers in order to keep control. - While most people are praising the removal of holes, I actually used the holes on the sides of the mouse to help anchor my fingers, especially my pinky. This meant that I didn’t have to exert a lot of force on my fingers to keep them in place. With the solid sides, however, I have to use more force, which causes pain in my wrist in shoulders. - Every button on the mouse is harder to click than on the MM710. It’s especially bad with the side buttons and the middle mouse click. The MM710 allows me to essentially “roll” my finger or thumb over these buttons to press them, which makes it easy to quickly use them while maintaining a solid grip. The buttons on the MM712 require so much more force that I have to take my finger off the mouse and solidly press the button. This often results in an uncomfortable shift in my grip that forces me to readjust. - The RGB is pointless and only adds weight to the mouse without any real benefit to the user. Overall, I’m disappointed in the mouse and will be returning it immediately.
