Our Verdict

Endgame Gear XM1r

MSI CLUTCH GM41 LIGHTWEIGHT WIRELESS

The Endgame Gear XM1r and the MSI CLUTCH GM41 LIGHTWEIGHT WIRELESS are comparable lightweight gaming mice, but the Endgame Gear is a wired-only model, while the MSI is wireless. The Endgame Gear is marginally lighter and feels sturdier. It also has mouse feet that glide more smoothly and has significantly lower click latency.
