Cooler Master is best known for their PC cases, with an unusual limit of play here and there. Their rats are the most recent games, the MM710 and MM711 are well designed and performed much better than expected, so the product has the potential to deliver to them.
The sound is a completely different fish litter, but today we take a look at the Cooler Master MH710 toy earbuds. These are some of the best “game” earbuds on the market, with lots of adapters which means you can find them working with your PC, and they are obviously comforting. This may not accumulate against the best headset players but this latest iteration comes with a new technology, Focus FX 2.0.
Let's see how these things work out.
Details
When using this with your console or mobile phone, setting it straight forward as you connect them. I wanted to test them on PC for most online players so I used a 3.5mm jack separator that allows me to use the microphone as well. The PC quickly recognized this and I was ready to leave.
Inside the box, we see:

Quickstart Guide
Design
The design of these is very nice, we have long ears covered with aluminum with black plastic that emphasizes the metal material and they are very comfortable. On the Focus FX 2.0 button (which we will cover soon) the yellow Cooler Master log; it is subtle and beautiful. The edges feature black rubber tips, which, when removed, the type makes this look like small metal milk bottles. This includes a 1.3m black woven cable and is very thin and lightweight. It’s not an anti-tangle like the HyperX Cloud or the Razer Hammerhead Earbuds but mostly self-explanatory.
Build Quality
The overall quality of the construction is good and up there with Razer Hammerheads. The Aluminum boat feels heavy and seems to be able to withstand your bag, pack, or drop off at some point. Interestingly for the model below, the MH703 offers the same level of construction quality but shares the same price as the HyperX Cloud Earbuds felt cheaper.
The earbuds feature a finely woven sharp cable that can be held as tight as your other rubber stitches but doubles the value. As the cable enters the earbud, it is wrapped in plastic with little flexibility in it but remains reliable. The only small area of concern is the control box that holds the operating button and microphone. The control box is a simple plastic box that certainly would not stand the test of anyone's boot. Obviously, you can't stand on these but this isn't as strong as the Razer Hammerheads control box.
Unfortunately, there is nothing to fix the ropes when you wear them as we have seen with HyperX Cloud Earbuds, so sometimes they will be caught with your jacket, door handles, cat claws, etc.
Below, we have an angled 3.5mm plug installed in the rubber. This is usually the area where I feel my ears, will be overused by my phone and coming in and out of my pockets. I have to say, this sounds solid and has a lot of flexibility in it so it should stand the test of time well.
The first piece of hardware controls we see with the Cooler Master MH710's are in the earbuds themselves. Limits to where the logo stays, where there are click buttons that enable / disable Focus FX2.0 technology. Whether technology adds anything to listening information we will see later but the functionality of the buttons is good. You can't really see if they work or not but you can get it by applying a little pressure. If the buttons have a certain supply, then they work and if they feel a little tight before working then it works.
Finally, in the control box there is a unity function button that you can use with your mobile devices. It is a basic play button that will play, stop, rotate, and hang on a single machine, switch to the next song after two clicks, and then go to the previous track after three. While extremely simple, the design is clever and allows you to operate the button in any direction where you are and when pressing most of the boats.
Comfort
Earbuds that fit your standard three sizes fit all rubber tips, with the option of medium size already available. This type of earbud does not just sit in my ear no matter what size I use but this is my case more than Cooler Masters. No matter, while playing, I shouldn’t have re-adjusted this many times but I wouldn’t have been able to use it on my walking tour or anything that involved movement.
Comfort loses HyperX Cloud Earbuds however, they sit perfectly in my ear with their extra build, this straightforward design just comes out due to the weight of the aluminum bud. That being said, these were more comforting than Razer Hammerheads, who felt stiff and hurt my ears.
Although it feels much stronger than the HyperX Cloud Earbuds, this is still about 17 grams light. That's easy for two grams! Not stable in the ear though, which is unfortunate.
All in all I was happy enough with the comfort and there is plenty of cable length but this still needed to be connected to the front of your PC case as the back was easy.
Performance
All in all, these are similar to the HyperX Cloud Earbuds, offering exceptional sound quality to the ears at this price. That being said, this set of earbuds comes with several usability and can be used with many other devices thanks to its included adapters. There is still a lack of controls on these ears however, so there is no mute or volume but we can forgive this for the price.
