Redragon M711 Cobra Review

The Redragon M711 Cobra shows up constantly in cheapest gaming mouse searches, since it undercuts nearly every brand-name mouse on this list while still offering RGB and seven programmable buttons.

It won't match a flagship sensor's precision, but for under $25 it delivers real mechanical switches, an ergonomic shape, and enough buttons to bind extra commands, which explains why it's such a common first upgrade from a basic office mouse.

Extreme Value

Few gaming mice from any brand undercut the M711 Cobra's price while still including seven programmable buttons and RGB lighting zones.

Where the Corners Are Cut

The A9100 sensor tops out at 10,000 DPI with less precision than flagship PixArt sensors, and build materials are noticeably more basic than premium competitors.

Comparison to Alternatives

Against the SteelSeries Rival 3, the M711 Cobra costs less but uses a lower-tier sensor and less refined switches. Compared to the Logitech G502 Hero, the M711 Cobra has fewer buttons and no adjustable weight, but costs a fraction of the price. For players who want to spend the least possible amount on a first gaming mouse, this is one of the strongest options available.
