Cooler Master MM720 vs Ninjutso Sora V2: which one fits your build

The Cooler Master MM720 is the one to take for FPS players who want the lowest possible wired weight and claw and fingertip grip users wanting a small symmetrical shell, though it is not built for palm grip users wanting a fuller shell and anyone who wants a wireless connection. Buy the Ninjutso Sora V2 for weight-obsessed competitive FPS players and fingertip grip users wanting the lightest possible shell, though it is the wrong buy for players who want a mainstream brand's warranty support and palm grip users wanting a filled-out shell. Our rating of the Cooler Master MM720 (8/10): one of the lightest wired mice on the market, backed by a genuinely flagship sensor rather than budget internals. Our rating of the Ninjutso Sora V2 (8/10): an excellent choice for gram-counters, provided you're comfortable with a boutique brand's smaller support network.
