Those features come at a premium, though. In 2019, spending $99 on a wired mouse will be a bit over the top for most shoppers. While the Rival 710 proves fast and accurate, mice like the Razer Basilisk and the Cougar Revenger S deliver fewer bells and whistles but offer similarly great sensor...

Accurate proprietary sensor; OLED display, customizable haptic feedback are fun for tinkerers; Body is customizable via swappable sensor, side panels

Display and haptic feedback lack deep integration with many games; Pricey for a wired mouse

Last weekend, our team at work decided to go out for dim sum. One thing I have learned about ordering dim sum from some of my co-workers is that there are different approaches to ordering. For someone like me, who has had this cuisine since I was little, I have my favorites that I will often order.

Today we will be covering the SteelSeries Rival 710 Gaming mouse. We were lucky enough to cover the rival 700. The 700 first explored the OLED screen and vibration feature. What updates were made to

Vibrating feedback; OLED display; Steelseries promoted images for OLED; SteelSeries Engine; Upgraded switches; Swappable USB cord

While the SteelSeries Rival 710 is expensive, the sheer amount of features – not to mention the awesome performance – make the high price completely justified. There are some gimmicks here, but nothing that takes away from the experience.

Fantastic TrueMove 3 sensor; Modular; Feels great in hand

This is my second Steelseries mouse and my 6th Steelseries device over all, and I keep going back for more. When my old Sensei died, I needed a new mouse pretty quickly. I went for this Rival 710 and I'm not disappointed.

In 2016, the SteelSeries Rival 700 was the height of opulence among PC gaming mice. This wired mouse earned a high score from PCMag for its great core components, but it really made its name for a series of wild features, notably a small OLED display on one side, and the ability to swap out some of its components, thanks to a modular design. In 2019, SteelSeries replaces it with the $99.99 SteelSeries 710, which changes out its default Pixart PMW 3360 sensor for a proprietary one focused on accuracy over sensitivity. While that lowers its peak resolution, the SteelSeries Rival 710 remains a very good mouse, especially if you get a kick out of brag-worthy, out-there gear. Plot Your Next TrueMove Like its predecessor, the Rival 710 is a wired right-handed mouse with seven buttons. On top, you have left- and right-clickers, a clickable scroll wheel, and an extra button just below it, which defaults to switch between two resolution settings. These numbers you can designate in the c...

Like its predecessor the Rival 700, the SteelSeries Rival 710 is a solid, pricey gaming mouse, with unique features (such as an on-body screen) that are more fun and flashy than technically useful.
