Despite what its name may suggest, the Cooler Master MM720 is not in fact the successor to the Cooler Master MM710. It’s modelled after the classic Spawn and Xornet, updating their ergonomic, right-handed designs with a modern, lightweight shell.
At just 49g, it’s one of the lightest gaming mice you can get. As on the MM710, the perforations in the shell are in the shape of the Cooler Master logo, and they’re actually on the smaller side compared to most other honeycomb mice.
My review unit is in glossy white, which looks striking, but is unfortunately something of a grease magnet.
Build quality is decent. There is some slight flexing on the bottom of the mouse, although it’s nothing to be worried about.
The MM720 is a wide and flat mouse, perfect for the claw grip. If you have small hands like I do, you can palm it very comfortably as well. With comfort grooves on the left edge for your thumb and ledges on the right for your ring finger and pinky, your hand ends up in a super relaxed position. However, I find I aim better with ambidextrous mice with narrow grip widths, and the MM720 is the exact opposite of that.
