Cooler Master MM711 vs Xtrfy M42 Wireless: Comparison
Cooler Master MM711 vs Xtrfy M42 Wireless sensor model compared
The first real difference is sensor model: Cooler Master MM711 PixArt PMW3389 against Xtrfy M42 Wireless PAW3395, up to 26,000 DPI. Cooler Master MM711 also leads on weight, 53 g on the Cooler Master MM711 versus 59 g on the Xtrfy M42 Wireless. There is a split on switch type as well, Mechanical on the Cooler Master MM711 versus Optical on the Xtrfy M42 Wireless.
Who each one is for
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 not built for ambidextrous or left-handed users and anyone who wants a wireless connection. It also earns its place with 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. Take the Xtrfy M42 Wireless for Xtrfy fans who want the brand's design aesthetic with a genuine step up to wireless and a higher-tier sensor. This mouse extends Xtrfy's design into the competitive wireless ultralight tier. Avoid it for buyers on the tightest possible budget. The wired Xtrfy M4 RGB, covered elsewhere on this site, offers the brand's styling at a lower price. 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.
