ROCCAT (Turtle Beach) - Kone Pro

I have it and its a great mouse, great value/money ratio

I have it and its a great mouse.

KP is great (possibly my favourite shape currently), but I wouldn't say it has a thumb rest. Could just be semantics, but for me the G502x has a thumb rest, because it extends away from the base of the mouse. KP has more of a pronounced thumb groove. Otherwise, I agree that the mains are maybe the most disappointing part of the KP. They are usable, but I wouldn't say they are a joy to use. They are okay. Regular TTC Gold Dustproofs would feel nicer.

When a few friends of mine switched to light mice, chiefly the Logitech GPX, and were swooning for them, I gave it a try and got caught up in the hype. I had very happily used my Roccat Kone Aimo for years, but a weight of 130g really wasn't cutting it and I saw my aim suffer in quick flicks. After quite a bit of research (shoutout to eloshapes!) I decided to go with the Roccat Kone Pro. It was clear right from the start that I wanted a similarly large ergo mouse with a thumb rest for comfort. Not many options in that category tbh, but I'm really happy with the choice I made. Also tried the Glorious Model I 2 and the Logitech G502, but the Kone Pro just fit into my hand better. So then, what is it like? It's great! The weight (66g) is a massive difference and the classic kone shape still fits really well. Movements feel effortless and very comfortable and controlled. It's a bit smaller than the Kone Aimo and therefore a bit too small for my usual palm grip, but that's fine. The weight makes up for it so that I don't need that much support, being able to switch to a palm/claw "hybrid". The scroll wheel is awesome. The only issue I have is with the mouse buttons which feel a bit mushy for desktop use, but in games when you're locked in you don't notice at all. In contrast to the Aimo the buttons are individually mounted and not integrated into the main body cover, so I think that's what makes them feel a bit less stable. Overall the build quality is acceptable but nothing extraordinary I'd say, but I never expected the thickest hard plastics in a light mouse where weight is the priority, and in games you don't ever notice it at all. The plastic still feels solid. Objectively the only issue is a bit of rattling when you set it down. It might be a small step backwards in feeling of quality for desktop use, but it's a massive improvement in reaction speed in game and comfort over long periods of time for both games and desktop use. I'm running it at 1000 Hz and 2000 DPI, same as the Aimo. However, with the more effortless movement I was able to reduce ingame sensitivity by about half, which improved my feeling for the crosshair immensely (CS2: 0.5 sens > 1000 eDPI). And with that I can only recommend this mouse. Didn't see many reviews for it here, or people posting about using it, so I thought I'd chime in. Its differentiating mark is definitely the shape, and I strongly recommend that everybody try an ergo mouse with a thumb rest. It's very comfortable for normal to long fingers and over long periods of time. There are also some pictures for reference (yes, I'll also get a new mousepad...).

I have a Roccat Kone Pro myself. It is also like a lighter G502, but doesn't have extra buttons.

This is a fun assignment, maybe EGG OP1 for claw and fortnite. Roccat Kone Pro for moba (not really). Rocket Jump Ninja mouse for fingertip.

Roccat Kone pro / Kone pro air. Sadly no longer in production and the QC was mid for the price. Still the best ergo shape for my 19.5x 10.5 hand.

I've never used the magic mouse, even for things NOT gaming-related. I've always used a dedicated gaming mouse. I recently switched to the Logitech G502 Hero, as my old on (ROCCAT KONE) wasn't available anymore :(
