ROCCAT Kone Air - Wireless Ergonomic Gaming Mouse With 800-hour Battery Life, 19K DPI Optical Sensor, Double-Injected Rubber Side Grips, Programmable Button Design & Titan Optical Switches - Black

Ive gone through a few mice, i really like this one. The option to use the usb wireless, or to use the bluetooth is great, the battery options, the different buttons, the way it sits in my hand, the different speeds at the click of a button, its a really nice mouse through and through

I like this mouse so much that I bought a second for a backup. I have big hands and this mouse is one of the biggest I've found. It's also decently light for it's size. I used a AAA battery converter with a lithium rechargeable battery to keep the weight down even more as I like a lighter mouse.The side grips are excellent and give you a good grip on the mouse. I also really like the easy-shift key. I have several macros bound to the mouse wheel so it works out well for productivity as the mouse has extra virtual buttons when you depress the easy-shift key. I've also been using this mouse for 1 year and 5 months at the time of this review. It's been used Monday through Friday for the entirety of my work days and it's never skipped a beat. The mouse feet were a little scratchy out of the box, but that went away quickly with use. Great mouse and I've got a backup if this one ever decides to die.

The mouse is solid built. It does not feel flimsy or cheep in your hand. Despite it large size, the mouse feels comfortable at least I believe for those who like to rest your palm on the back of mouse. For those with small hand may not like the size.All the switches on the mouse feel good to click on. They are not stiff but they do not feel soft. I really like where the forward and backward buttons on the mouse are placed and both are long. That makes it easy to press them. Some mouse needs you to lift your right thumb backward to press the back button. These buttons at least for my hand are just the right place.I also like the using regular batteries (which you can also use rechargeable ones in place as well) for longer life plus it has an option to either use one AA or two AA. This is good for productivity use case that you would like to have a longer batter life.Overall, this is a good mouse if you are comfortable using it. This is personal thing whether you feel comfortable with the mouse or not.

Purchased the Roccat Kone Air at the start of May 2024, just before Turtle Beach absorbed Roccat into the main brand. I have been using the 2.4ghz dongle with my desktop and pairing the bluetooth with my laptop, and I've been really happy with the mouse up until this morning.I turned on my desktop and the mouse wasn't responding and invisible on screen. I changed the batteries, updated the firmware, removed and reinserted the 2.4ghz dongle, uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers. It's only been three months and with no warning, it's basically dead to me. The dongle itself still works and Windows recognizes it, but the Kone Air itself isn't having it. If I switch on 2.4ghz, it will flash yellow until I press it down to force it to re-pair to the dongle. It will flash white and never go solid, which means it's not connecting to the dongle no matter how close I hold it. If I switch it to bluetooth, the lights don't even come on and it refuses to attempt to connect at all. I've confirmed that this happens on two separate computers.This was my first Roccat / Turtle Beach product and I'm pretty disappointed. I didn't pay a lot for my mouse, but I can't recommend or purchase another from this company if their products die so quickly. I have contacted support in the hopes they might have another solution as I'm outside of an Amazon return window.Update: 8/19/2024.I contacted Roccat through Amazon and through the Swarm app. Luckily my mouse fell under warranty and they are sending a replacement out soon. It'll take awhile for the replacement to arrive so if the same thing happens to your mouse, I'd suggest to contact Roccat/Turtle Beach and see if it's within warranty period.

The mouse itself is great. I have big hands and need a big mouse and this does that job well. The plastic of it feels a bit cheap, but still reasonable enough. The couple extra buttons are nice, and the texture on the thumb grip is some of the best I've felt IMO. The coolest feature in my opinion is the way this mouse handles weight management. It has 2 battery slots, but works with just 1 so you have the option to have a lighter or heavier mouse. Only downside there is if you like a lighter mouse, you get less battery life.The biggest problem with this one is the software. Its not great. It works ok enough, and seems to save to hardware so you only have to run it the once. However changing bindings is clunky, and theres no way to change the amount of dpi settings, so despite me wanting 2 settings I'm required to cycle back and forth between 5 settings.Overall nice mouse for big hands, but not the greatest software experience ever.

nice size, similar to the OG Kone Aimo. Solid mouse. I bought it for work since the Government PC's come /w some crap small ones, and I wanted a larger size that was wireless and safe to use on the work computer's. This meets the mark since it doesn't contain any onboard memory. Happy with it. So far im three month's in and on the original batterys. Seems to shut off while idle after a certain time.
