About the second half of 2015, Coolcool launched the Magic Mouse 2 mouse. At the time, I was still addicted to the Logitech G600. I was very interested in the Magic Egg 2, especially the large size and the support of the little thumb side. Feel the length of Magic Egg 2 is slightly shorter and eventually missed it.
After more than two years, Coolcool has launched a brand new MM520 mouse while completing the rebranding of various products. As soon as he sees the appearance, he knows that it is the successor of Magic Egg 2. It is a decisive start.
Packaging section, from the packaging of product pictures, MM520 still retains a lot of magic eggs 2 elements: split button, light roller, the support groove of the little thumb.
Open the box and some of the core parameters are printed on it. For example, the 3360 sensor, preset 4 DPI adjustable, 50g acceleration and 250IPS, and 1000Hz return rate, these are basically the standard high-end gaming mouse.
The back of the package is the product selling point of the languages of various countries.

There are protagonists mouse debut, cable, right hand ergonomic mouse, the appearance of the overall shape is similar to the magic egg 2, but the overall shape is more slender, the surface is PBT material, although the feel is not so skin-like material so comfortable, but PBT is better than durable, Not so easy to hit the oil.
The height of the mouse is about 3cm (measurement of the circumference: 78.5 x 118 x 29.5 mm). If you hold it, the support of the palm of your hand is pretty good. There are two side keys on the left side.
There is no side button on the right, there is a rubber side skirt, but the overall shape is not magical 2 round.
Right side of the little finger support, plus a rubber side skirt, in addition to supporting the part can not be used as a button, the overall shape is really like my favorite Logitech G600.
Roller parts, non-four-way, similar to the magic egg 2, will be bright after power-up. feel, ALPS encoder, the overall sense of scale I was quite satisfied.
At the top of the button, the two primary keys are designed with a split-type button. The Omron 20M is slightly moved and feels very good. The DPI button on the top can be adjusted by DPI at a preset speed.
The other two main buttons also have a small angled groove. When the finger is placed, there will be a certain positioning effect and a sense of wrapping. However, because the groove angle is not large, the overall feeling is not particularly special. obvious.
The LOGO part of the mouse, the outer ring can be light, and the word 'COOLERMASTER' has not been treated with light, which is also more suitable for this year's cold and hot main LOGO outer light line.
Seen from the bottom, first of all, the LOGO outer ring and the chassis have a full circle of light. In other cases, the mouse is still very wide. Plus the support of the right little finger, like the grip of my 20cm hand. Type player, is still very satisfied with such a feel.
Wire section, 1.8 meters long rubber wire, gold plated interface, anti-jamming magnetic ring. Interface is still a vague purple ~~~
In the chassis part, the foot stick has more than 2 pieces of magic eggs. Each groove of the foot has a groove treatment to facilitate the replacement of the foot sticks. In addition, an extra pair of foot stickers is still very intimate. The original phase 3360 The sensor is hidden inside the chassis.
'Drive part'
This concludes the unpacking section. The following is the power-on test drive. In the drive section, it can be said to be mixed.
The first is the driver download. On the official website, there is no separate driver download interface. On the product details page of the MM520, the driver download column is actually empty.
Then download the driver way? Or go to the MM530 page to find, or go to the MK750's interface to find. In the official website this, Cool and did not do meticulous optimization.
Download and install the universal driver. Click to enter and you will see that the MM520 product is already listed. After installing the universal driver for the first time, you need to click on the 'Install' button again and load the MM520 module into it. Then click ' Start' can enter the mouse driver page.
After entering the driver interface, you can see that there are many adjustable functions. In addition to presetting multiple DPIs, you can also preset five mouse configuration files. You can also customize an image logo above each configuration file button. For example, DOTA, PUBG these game LOGO, corresponding to the following configuration file, at a glance.
The driver can also set straight line correction and LOD, as well as different mouse pad fitting schemes. The most interesting is the additional function of the middle button. Cool has given it a name: TactiX.
simply put, Its function is similar to the Easy Shift of the ice leopard, through the combination of the middle button + other buttons, with a more button program.
'Light effect part'
The mouse supports 16.7 million colors of RGB lighting effects. The luminous points include: Scroll wheel, LOGO outer ring and bottom lamp with three areas. There are also many kinds of preset lighting effect modes in the drive. The form of lighting effect adjustment can be modified in the drive. , You can also use the TactiX key combination for quick rotation.
In terms of actual lighting effects, the first is the style of two color loops. In addition to the inability to control the color of each lamp, that is to say, it is not possible to achieve such a streamer effect (similar to AURA Addressable RGB). The overall effect is still good. If you look at anything more, then it's the glowing area that doesn't count as much.
In addition to the color cycle, there are a variety of other preset lighting effects in the driver. There are breathing light range of children, but also different areas of different colors.
'The actual experience of the link'
The first is the mosquito-repellent incense map. Within the range of 2000DPI that I commonly use, I am very satisfied with the actual results. Like the super high DPI of 12,000, I cannot control it anyway.
The use of links, the overall weight of the mouse is about 100g, my 100g + weight of the mouse, 100g or slightly feel a little lighter.
MM520 is longer than the previous generation of Magic Egg 2, and my 20cm long user, the length and width of the mouse are very much in line with my needs, especially the supporting part of the right little finger, as the brainless once G600, personal It feels very comfortable.
The game link, food is the original sin, what mouse is also useless. Because, when the mouse performance reaches a certain height, the control of their own is often the game level. 0 into the top ten to find out, an uppercase 'vegetable' word written in Face.
'to sum up'
Compared to Magic Egg 2, MM520 has been fully upgraded. Configuration above, Omron 20M+3360 sensor can be said to be a relatively high-end configuration, surface PBT material also has a very good durability, the middle TactiX key combination function is quite interesting, mouse 78.5 The x 118 x 29.5 mm measurements are longer than Magic Egg 2, and it seems more comfortable for big hand players.
In addition, the individual likes to support the little finger from the magic egg 2 to the MM520. The weight of the 100g is obvious.
Disadvantages, RGB lighting effects seem to have room for improvement. The official website and the driver interface also have room for optimization, especially the official website. Although the interface is very beautiful but its useability is not flattered, there is no driver download page, MM520 The driver is to look for from other product pages, it really needs to optimize it quickly.
The other is that MM520 is not as sleek as Magic 2 (this is a purely personal subjective experience).
