Which should you buy, Cooler Master MM711 or Redragon M711 Cobra?

Buy the Cooler Master MM711 for right-handed palm and claw grip players wanting low weight and buyers who want a flagship sensor at a mid-range price, though it is the wrong buy for ambidextrous or left-handed users and anyone who wants a wireless connection. It is equally the pick for anyone upgrading from a heavier ergonomic mouse without changing grip style. It is the wrong buy for players bothered by a perforated shell letting in dust and debris. The Redragon M711 Cobra suits budget buyers wanting an ergonomic shape with RGB and casual players who want extra programmable buttons cheaply, though it is not the pick for competitive players who need precise, flagship-tier sensors and anyone who wants premium build materials. Our rating of the Cooler Master MM711 (8/10): A genuinely light ergonomic mouse with flagship internals, and one of the best value picks for palm grip players who want low weight.
