Graphs Description The Physical Characteristics comparison is just a viewable representation of the devices' length, width, height and weight. Sensor, Latency and Other Features are, instead, computed within the range 0-->100, taking into account if the variable is getting better with the increase of its value (e.g the highest max DPI, the better it is) or vice versa (the lowest Click Latency, the better); for example, a score of 50 for both devices means they are equal, scores of 70 and 30 mean that first one better. So, the data are homogeneous to provide immediate meaning, higher bar(s) means better value(s). An empty graph means that there is not enough data to compute that comparison (one value or both are missing).

Final Vs Words

Aiding our visitors to the final choice between the mice.

This final paragraph will help you in the decision making process, between Cooler Master MM711 and Razer DeathAdder Essential, and in selecting the mouse that is performing better and best suits your needs. We are aware that every user has own needs and preferences, due to this each mouse could be better for some features and worse for other ones. The purpose of the text is to highlight this possibility and generate an "overall score" for a purchase decision.

First of all, both mice share the same utilization aim, Gaming mouse. The first one is younger, 5 years old, being released in the 2019, while DeathAdder Essential is older, 6 years old, being released in the 2018. The production age difference is 1 year(s). This makes the MM711 a bit more attractive in terms of freshness.

• Dimensions, Weight, Ergonomy 📐⚖️🫳

When it comes to evaluate mice dimensions, you should take into consideration the size of your hand and check if it would properly fit it or not. In this case, you should check which mice would be the fittest. Compared to DeathAdder Essential mouse, MM711 is ~10.50 mm (or ~0.41 in) Shorter, ~0.70 mm (or ~0.03 in) Wider and ~4.40 mm (or ~0.17 in) Lower, which makes it, overally, 14.2 mm (or -0.56 in) moderately smaller and better suiting tinier hands.

Considering the weight, Cooler Master MM711 is 38% lighter, a difference of 36.00 g (0.08 lbs), which can be considered quite significant. We do not express a particular preference for heavier or lighter mice, being this a completely personal objective preference. Anyway, both mice does not offer weight personalization .

Regarding the Ergonomy, MM711 is meant to be Ambidextrous while DeathAdder Essential is Right-handed. They offer the same grip, Palm grip, Claw grip, Fingertip grip; the degree of adaptability is the same and equal to 3.

• Sensor and Latencies 🐭⏱️

Let's now compare Cooler Master MM711 sensor with the one of Razer DeathAdder Essential. The two mice share the same sensor technology, that is Optical, but different sensor model: PMW3389 equipped by MM711 and PAW3327 used by DeathAdder Essential. It is very important to say that, although tech and model sometimes coincide, the assembly and composition of interior circuits might result in different specs and latencies.

Resolution, Max Acceleration and Max Tracking, Polling Rate and Lift Off
The mice offer different resolution range (DPImax - DPImin), the MM711 provides 15900 DPI/CPI, while DeathAdder Essential offers 6300 DPI/CPI, meaning that the first one has way larger range. Consider picking up the sensitivity range that mostly suits your needs, depending on the aim (Gaming/Business) but also the kind of game you are going to use it mostly (e.g. FPS is different than RTS or MOBA). If you need a higher precision mouse, meaning that for the same length of shift the mouse will recognize more movement, "reading" more dots per inch and, in other words, will move faster on the screen, MM711 is offering 60% better Max Resolution, 9600 More DPI/CPI.

As for the Maximum Acceleration, which measures the maximum pull force in G(s) that the sensor can trace before inconsistencies occur, MM711 shows a better value, 50 G, a moderate difference of 20 G. Going on, taking into account the Maximum Tracking Speed, the velocity (inches per second) that the mouse can move at before it starts to loose track and cause anomalies, MM711 shows a preferable value, 400 IPS, a significant difference of 180 IPS. Take into account that max G and max IPS mostly affect activities requiring very fast mouse shift, together with the shift latency that we will analyse further in this section.

They have a Polling Rate of 1000 Hz, in other words they report data to computer 1 time every 1.00 ms. Lastly, the Lift Off distance of DeathAdder Essential shows an higher value, 2.5 mm, a moderate difference of 0.50 mm. Anyway, MM711 offers adjustable lift off distance through software.

Click and Shift Latencies

Cooler Master MM711 has higher click latency than Razer DeathAdder Essential, a great difference of 6.30 ms, 53% worse Click Latency, which can be evaluated very significant, in terms of compared performance. Anyway, we feel it is important to underline that the differences in latencies are often more perceptible from the machine's point of view rather than human's, reducing the real impact of these values and deviations. At the moment there is no available data to compare MM711 and DeathAdder Essential shift latency. Contact us to request priority data update.

• Other Features 📎

Let's now have a look, finally, to the general features of the two mice. They are equipped with different Switch Technology, MM711 has Omron while DeathAdder Essential has Omron D2FC-F-7N; moreover, the Switch lifespan of first mouse is 20 millions clicks while the second is 10 millions clicks, 50% better Lifespan, a difference of 10 millions clicks that can be evaluated very significant. The Feet Material is the same, PTFE. Considering the available Number of Buttons, 6 offered by first mouse and 5 offered by the second one, a small difference of 1 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the features offered by Cooler Master MM711 are On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB, while Razer DeathAdder Essential is giving DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB.
