Roccat Kone[+] Laser Gaming Mouse Review

Rating: 8.5.

  1. Thats great, lovely looking mouse too. but as the reviewer said, its a bit costly. shame, id have bought one myself.

  2. Lovely, never really see their products on sale here, have to go online. Looks better than logitech anyway.

  3. Excellent product. my friend has one of their older mice and it looks better than my similar aged logitech. maybe I sweat more or something but I think logitech are a little overated. steelseries have a battle on their hands I think.

  4. I have had a few of these apart in our work, not this exact model but other products by the same company.

    Really good design inside and good quality components, not a cheap far east make.

  5. I like the shape and appearance,. its always hard to tell about a mouse until you feel it and use it. ive bought a few logitechs and even a steelseries that I ended up hating. I only get mice now ive had hands on experience with in pcworld or a shop like that.

  6. Nice preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-322m1kGng
