Cooler Master MM720 vs Roccat Kone Pro Air: which one fits your build

Buy the Cooler Master MM720 for 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. The Roccat Kone Pro Air suits right-handed palm and claw grip users and players who want Bluetooth as a backup wireless mode, though it is not the pick for left-handed users and competitive players wanting 8000Hz+ polling. 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 Kone Pro Air (8/10): A well-rounded ergonomic flagship let down slightly by a lower max DPI ceiling than top FPS rivals.
