Redragon Cobra M711 Review: Best Programmable Budget Gaming Mouse

In this article, I have done a detailed Redragon Cobra M711 review, which is a great programmable budget gaming mouse.

In which you have been given many such features which are found in the expensive gaming mice.

It is a highly programmable budget gaming mouse that offers you to customize in a better way.

I reviewed the Redragon Gainer 610 in my previous article, on which many people on social media asked me to write a Redragon Cobra M711 review.

Interestingly, one of my old friend already had a Redragon Cobra gaming mouse, due to which I did not have to buy it.

I took the Redragon Cobra M711 from my friend for a few days and used it.

While testing, I got to know deeply about its hidden features and limitations, due to which I can present a better review in front of you.

So let’s review the Redragon M711 and then I will tell you why I was calling it the best programmable gaming mouse?

Pros

Cons

  • You can’t adjust the weight of this Redragon cobra M711

I have been using the Redragon Cobra M711 for the last 3 days, in which I have done almost all types of gaming.

I’ve played most of the FPS games with the Cobra M711, although if you want to see only the main points, then you can consider the key features and pros and cons above.

In this Redragon Cobra M711 review, I will try to tell you every single feature of this mouse in detail, so let’s start with its design and build quality.

Design & Build Quality

Its design might not make you look like the mice that are made just for gaming, which give you extra features.

At first glance, I also felt right here.

The design of the Redragon Cobra M711 can be liked by gamers who like a very neat and clean mouse.

However I like the hardcore gaming mouse in which you get extra buttons and features.

What kind of design do you like in your gaming mouse?

Please tell in the comments.

It is 130 mm (5.12 inches) long, 60mm (2.36 inches) wide and 40.6mm (1.6 inches) high.

It is comfortable for all gamers who has palm grip.

And, if you hold the mouse with your fingers, you may feel a bit uncomfortable.

By the way, Phaser M609 gaming mouse is also a great option if you hold it with fingers.

You may like the matte finish design of the Redragon Cobra M711, which improves its build quality.

Looking at the budget, I did not find any lack in build quality, according to me, you will not find better build quality in this budget than in any other gaming mouse.

Buttons

In the Redragon cobra M711 you get 7 programmable buttons, which makes gaming more easy.

In the Redragon M711 you will get 3 buttons on the top side, with the first 2 buttons for DPI levels, so that you can reduce or increase the DPI level.

I liked the feature in the Redragon M711 Cobra that it has dedicated switch buttons to increase or decrease DPI levels.

The third button to change the LED lights so that you can change the LED lights even during gaming.

In the left side of the M711 Cobra you are given 2 ergonomic thumb buttons which are customizable.

Along with this, you get left and right buttons in it.

Scroll Wheel

Like the Redragon Gainer M610, you have been given a rubberized scroll wheel with LED lighting on its edges.

RGB Backlit Modes

The Redragon M711 Cobra has 8 types of RGB backlit modes to give you the best gaming experience possible, which makes this mouse really great.

All those modes are as follows-

  • Wave
  • Rainbow
  • Go without trace
  • Reactive
  • Full lighted
  • Breathing
  • Flash
  • Off

You can easily use all these modes as per your choice.

Apart from all these modes, you get 16.8 million customizable color options in the Redragon Cobra, which provide a unique gaming atmosphere.

DPI

Most gamers do not use DPI much but DPI is very important for die-hard gamers.

In this mouse, you get 5 types of adjustable DPI levels (500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000) in the Redragon M711, which cater to your multiple needs.

You will be surprised to know that the DPI levels given in it can also be customized.

You can customize these DPI levels with plus/minus 100 from 100 to 10000 levels using the DPI switch button above the mouse.

Polling Rate

To improve the speed of the Redragon M711 mouse, you get a polling rate of maximum 1000Hz.

The interesting thing is that you can also customize its polling rate which can be customized in 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz and 1000Hz.

You get about 15 to 20% off when you buy a renewed variant of the Redragon M711 Cobra. If you have budget problems then you can consider the renewed variant.

Performance

I used the M711 Cobra gaming mouse for hours in which I also did gaming and did my other work.

Redragon Cobra gaming mouse gets a performing boost due to its customizable DPI and high polling rate.

When I did gaming, I set the DPI to 1000 level and kept the polling rate high, and you really get a different level of gaming experience.

You will get performance like high-end gaming mouse in Redragon M711 Cobra, which is very difficult to meet in this budget.
