The Roccat Kone Pro Air is a wireless version of the Kone Pro. It's an already great mouse made even better with the addition of wireless and Bluetooth connectivity. Like its wired sibling, the Kone Pro Air tries to deliver lightweight gaming goodness without the holes that the latest line-up of super lightweight mice insist on featuring. Instead, it uses a lightweight and thin shell that not only keeps it slick and easy to flick around, but also allows some of that fantastic RGB light bleed for added visual aesthetics.
Naturally being a wireless mouse, the Kone Pro Air is a touch heavier than its wired counterpart. Which is a bit ironic considering the name. Still, it's intelligently designed with a thin-yet-stable and seemingly durable external housing that keeps dust away - but also lets the light shine through.
The Kone Pro Air is available in two colour variants: Ash Black or Arctic White.
The RGB lighting is one of the things that helps the Kone Pro Air stand out from the crowd. That's because Roccat has gone against the norm and put the lighting under the left and right buttons. The thin housing on the buttons and the honeycomb design under the outer shell lets the light shine through. There's also a gap that runs around the edge and front of those buttons that lets more light out.
The Kone Pro Air is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in the hand. It's a right-handed mouse, but one with a clever sloping style and a larger-than-average shape. This mouse will work with palm, claw and fingertip grip - but more importantly, it's a great fit for larger hands.
Outwardly the mouse looks quite slick. There's a slight ridging on the left and right for grip, but you barely notice it when holding the mouse. It's not as slick as it might appear though and is easy to hold onto, even when things get a bit fast and frantic in game.
Another highlight to the design is the large heat-treated PTFE glides on the underside. These Teflon feet allow for quick and easy movements when gaming and great response. The mouse also boasts Roccat's Titan Switch Optical that uses a light beam to track the click, ensuring better accuracy and a longer-lasting switch too.
Roccat's Swarm software gives you access to be able to tweak a number of settings on this mouse, including remapping buttons, adjusting DPI level, and changing the lighting.
