The Kone was the very first mouse from Roccat, a manufacturer of gamer peripherals that quickly diversified, without forgetting where it came from. The model has evolved over the years since its launch in 2007 and Roccat presents this week a new version, the Kone XP.
Presented as “the ultimate gaming mouse”, the result of 15 years of research and development, the Kone XP has been improved in every waywhether it is its ergonomics, its lighting RGB 3D or its sensor, an optical model Owl-Eye conceived by Roccat (derived from PAW3370 of PixArt) and which can climb to 19,000 DPI with a response time of 0.2 ms. The Kone XP has 15 customizable buttons (even 29 with the Easy-Shift+), optical switches, a system of 22 LEDs, a dial Crystal 4D with vertical and horizontal scrolls, reduced weight, reworked ergonomics, PTFE pads, cable PhantomFlex and of course compatibility with the ecosystem AIMO from the manufacturer to synchronize all devices. René Korte, founder and managing director of Roccatcomments:
We’ve designed the Kone XP to be the perfect sized mouse, with stunning 3D RGB lighting, customizable buttons and premium specs, so PC gamers can perform with style and confidence. We spend a lot of time working on the size and shape of our mice. The Kone XP is the spiritual successor to the Kone AIMO Remastered, one of the best-selling mice in Germany in 2021. Its ergonomics and numerous buttons make it ideal for gamers, but its comfort and customization options make it it a hybrid mouse, also ideal for working.
The Kone XP from Roccat will be launched on March 29, against €89.99. You can already find the Kone AIMO Remastered at €59.12 at Baker.
