We've already talked about the best mice, keyboards, headphones and even gamer's phones!

But wait, very little is said about mats, that fundamental piece in your setup, it is responsible for offering you softness when you slide your mouse apart from taking care of your peripherals and leaving them as if they were always new.

That's why, among so many mats on the market, I leave you my favorite, the Corsair mm700.

We are talking about one of the heavyweights not only in gaming, but also high-performance computing and peripherals, an XL fabric mouse pad with an RGB band along the entire silhouette and integrated USB-A ports to directly connect any external device.

The first thing we came across is a rectangular box with a perforation on its cover so that the user can feel the touch and finish of the fabric before buying, which is a big positive point for distribution points.

While in the rear section we can see a good amount of information with technical specifications in several languages, the cover of the Corsair MM700 RGB shows it to us with the active RGB lighting and the brand logos and its software

When we opened the box, we came across the mat rolled up inside a plastic bag. Also separately we will have a couple of brochures with documentation of the brand and the USB cable.

This wonder has dimensions of 930 x 400 x 4 mm, reaching a total weight of 147kg due to the density of the fabric and its combination with the rubber back cover.

This is a landscape design with a matte black finish designed to cover almost the entire workspace and place both mouse and keyboard on it.

The Corsair logo is stamped in white in the lower left corner. It has a plastic texture that differentiates it in a tactile way from the fabric.

Regarding the edges, these are completely covered by a silicone band on which the RGB LEDs are located. In turn, this band is sewn with synthetic thread, the final finish feels resistant, with minimal lift in front of the body of the mat.

We have the module for the cable and auxiliary USB-A ports. Its dimensions are 62 x 42 x 13 mm and it is made of plastic with a matte black finish.

The upper edges are gently beveled and right in the center we can see the Corsair isologue made with double injection, so it is backlightable.

Right in the back area of the design is the USB-C port for the removable cable that will provide RGB lighting, while next to it there is a small circular button with which we can quickly establish up to eight different color profiles.

Its power cable is removable. This is a braided fiber model with a length of 180 cm and a diameter of approximately 3 mm. It doesn't offer much flexibility at first, but it's something that can be improved with use and compensates for the resistance factor.

The lighting is intense, with smooth transitions and a good number of customization options: when the iCUE software comes into play, the control button available on the module, we only have eight RGB lighting modes in which color changes are combined in the band surrounding the carpet and the Corsair logo

Something extremely attractive for us gamers is to be able to use a peripheral that offers us software to modify its appearance in many ways.

Through the Corsair software we can configure the RGB lights, the effects, the brightness among many others.

If you are meticulous and want an exact color for your rig, you have found the right program.
