Cooler Master MM720 vs Roccat Kain 200 AIMO: which one fits your build
The Cooler Master MM720 suits FPS players who want the lowest possible wired weight and claw and fingertip grip users wanting a small symmetrical shell, though it is the wrong buy for palm grip users wanting a fuller shell and anyone who wants a wireless connection. Buy the Roccat Kain 200 AIMO for players who want weeks of battery life per charge and ambidextrous casual-to-competitive users, though it is not built for esports players wanting the highest DPI ceilings and buyers chasing sub-70g weight. 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 Roccat Kain 200 AIMO (7/10): not a flagship, but genuinely useful for players who hate charging peripherals and don't need top-tier DPI.
