Cooler Master presented its upcoming MasterKeys hybrid wireless gaming keyboard at CES 2024—the MK770 was debuted at last year's event, but has not reached retail in the iterim period. A variety of chassis and keycap color sets were showcased at CES '23, but that tally has decreased at Cooler Master's 2024 convention exhibit—Space Gray and Macaron are the two consolidated choices. The feature set presented a year ago seems to be largely intact—TPU noted that the MK770 is still advertised as having a hot-swappable mechanical switch system, gasket structure (for noise and vibration reduction), coupled with a noise-absorbing design plus silicone dampers. Kailh Box V2 switches are part of this customizable package, plus US and TC regional versions will get high-purity PBT double shot keycaps, for increased durability and long-lasting colors.

The MasterMouse MM712 Wired Gaming mouse also made a re-appearance at CES 2024. We last witnessed this small + lightweight (sub 50 grams) pointing device at Cooler Master's Computex 2023 booth, alongside its fancier MM712 PRO wireless sibling. The wired version sits alone at this year's event; we are not sure why the PRO version is absent. The MM712 Wired is presented as a permanently Ultraweaved cable-equipped alternative to Cooler Master's existing MM712 hybrid model, although the shell and main buttons have been redesigned to eliminate uncomfortable pinching of skin. The spec sheet confirms that Pixart's top-flight PAW3395 optical sensor has been integrated into the MM712 Wired, granting a maximum 26,000 DPI setting.

Kysona, a renowned gaming peripherals manufacturer, has unveiled its latest innovation in the gaming world - the M600 ULTRALIGHT Wireless Gaming Mouse. With an impressively featherweight design tipping the scales at a mere 55 grams, this gaming mouse sets a new standard for lightweight performance, boasting a remarkable battery life of 500mAh.

At the heart of this powerhouse is the built-in PAW3395 sensor, a technological marvel that delivers an unparalleled gaming encounter with its astounding 26000 DPI and innovative tri-mode feature. The ULTRALIGHT Wireless Gaming Mouse also showcases the inclusion of Huano Pink Switches, ensuring every press is met with an audibly satisfying click.

Cooler Master is exhibiting new MM712 gaming mouse variants at Computex 2023 - the two updated offerings come in the form of a high-end "PRO" version and a (potentially) cheaper wired model. The original MM712 was released last autumn (after several delays) to a mostly warm reception, although user feedback did provide Cooler Master with plenty of insights for the development of possible successors. The peripheral design team has addressed a key negative point - the MM712 PRO and Wired models no longer sport primary button overhang - certain users complained about their fingers getting pinched by the original's sharp side pieces. The new model's sensor position has been adjusted to a more central placement according to documentation on hand.

The MM712 PRO looks to offer a significant bump in specifications (over the base model) thanks to it being fitted with Pixart's top PAW 3395 optical sensor. Cooler Master will be catching up with leading brands who already offer high polling rate gaming mice. The MM712 PRO in wired connection mode can operate at 8 kHz, while wireless operation is rated at 4 kHz via an included ultra-fast USB dongle. The spec upgrade has not meant that the model's weight has increased, Cooler Master reps at Computex claim that the PRO remains in the lightweight category - coming in at roughly 56 grams.

Fantech has uploaded an unboxing video featuring the two new color variations of its Aria XD7 wireless gaming mouse - Sakura Pink and Retro Beige. These new colorways join the original lineup - consisting of standard black and white editions. The pink and beige models were first revealed late last year, and an expected/estimated release date was teased for Q1 2023. Alas, it seems that the fresh product lineup has undergone delays - until now - the Sakura and Retro Beige Aria XD7 models are available to order directly from Fantech's online store or regional retailers.

The Fantech Aria XD7 wireless gaming mouse was first released during last year's Spring season, and the compact powerhouse was immediately hailed as a very decent alternative to its closest rivals - in the shape of Logitech's G305 and Razer's Orochi V2 - the Aria also offered very up-to-date interior components and a low weight - coming in at 59 grams. The flagship Pixart PAW3395 optical sensor (max. 26,000 DPI) provided a significant technical upgrade over similarly egg-shaped mice on the market, and Fantech chose to sell the Aria XD7 at a very reasonable price (MSRP $70). Other notable features include a pair of Kailh GM 8.0 primary switches, a TTC Gold scroll wheel encoder, pure PTFE skates and the inclusion of a generous accessories package.

Delux is lining up significant upgrades for its top-of-the-line M800PRO model, which is a not too subtle clone of Razer's Viper series of symmetrical-shaped gaming mice. Enthusiasts have placed the M800's chassis as an intermediate between the full-sized Viper and Viper Mini, so it could be considered as a medium-sized equivalent. In order to match the competition in terms of specifications and features, Delux has sought to upgrade the M800PRO's internal hardware and has also made changes to its externals.

Pixart's PAW3395 has been selected as the new optical sensor, which is a significant generational upgrade over the previous M800PRO iteration's PAW3370. Delux has not confirmed, within its specifications list, whether MotionSync will be enabled by default. The upgraded sensor is capable of running this feature, and the vast majority of gaming mouse manufacturers have chosen to enable it. The PAW3395 is rated for a 26,000 maximum DPI, 650 IPS speed, 50 g acceleration and 1000 Hz polling rate. The lift off distance (LOD) is adjustable between heights of 1 and 2 mm.
