What customers like about MAD Catz M O J O M1

  • Ultra-lightweight design (approx. 70g) ideal for fast-paced gaming
  • High-performance PixArt PMW3360 optical sensor with up to 12,000 DPI
  • Fast and responsive DAKOTA mechanical switches rated for 60 million clicks
  • Unique 'hollow-pyramid' fractal design that aids ventilation and aesthetics
  • Comfortable ergonomic shape with a useful thumb wing for right-handed users
  • Flexible paracord cable and decent mouse feet for smooth glides
  • Plug-and-play functionality that doesn't strictly require drivers

What customers don't like about MAD Catz M O J O M1

  • Initial lack of configuration software limited DPI and RGB customisation
  • Later released software reported as being buggy and clunky
  • Side buttons are noted by some users as feeling loose or flimsy
  • Limited RGB lighting with only one zone that is often covered by the hand
  • Design with large triangular holes may be prone to collecting debris
  • Ergonomics may not suit users with larger hands or left-handed players
  • Standard paracord cable is considered less flexible than some high-end competitors

Verdict

The Mad Catz M.O.J.O. M1 is a lightweight wired gaming mouse featuring a distinctive 'hollow pyramid' avian nest design and weighing only 70g. It is equipped with a high-performance PixArt PMW3360 optical sensor offering up to 12,000 DPI, 250 IPS tracking speed, and 50G acceleration. A standout feature is the patented DAKOTA mechanical switches, which provide a near-instant 2ms response time and are rated for 60 million clicks. Main pros include its comfortable ergonomic right-handed shape with a built-in thumb wing, flexible paracord cable, and responsive clicks. However, primary cons are the historical lack of robust configuration software for fine-tuning DPI and RGB settings, underwhelming single-zone internal lighting, and large side holes that some users may find slippery or uncomfortable during extended use.
