Hey guys... hows it going out there? Since its the time of steam summer sales i thought i would attempt one more mouse review for you all/
This time its the Roccat Kone Pure Color edition mouse which according to my sister looks like giant candy(you be the judge,am in no mood to fight with her!).
The mouse will be available in four different colors
Now basically what we have here is a high DPI mouse at a Sub 6k range with a few style add-on in a sightly smaller package than the original Kone(9-10 % smaller to be exact)...but there's more to it..read on to know...
Now before we go further lets take a look at the specs and features that we get from the product page.
Technical Specifications
Additional Info
Dimensions
Max. width 7cm x approx. 12cm max. length
Weight
Approx. 90g (excl. cable)
System requirements
Windows® XP/Windows Vista® 32/64-bit/Windows® 7 32/64-bit
Windows® 8 / Windows® 8 Pro
USB 2.0 port
Internet connection for driver installation
In the package
ROCCATâ„¢ Kone Pure - Core Performance Gaming Mouse
Quick-Installation Guide
Instructions in EN, DE, FR, ES, PT, PL, RU, TR, DK, FI, SE
please note the software is not provided with the mouse. one can download it from here
now with that out of the way lets move on to a few pics and testing part.
As always I will let the pics do the talking part and I will give information as necessary.
First up the box itself :
looks all business like with all the necessary information written everywhere possible,
even inside
Now coming to the package,its very spartan ; only the mouse..a small manual and that's it..
Now coming to the mouse..its an absolute beauty..i like the minimalistic design with quite powerful hardware inside.
And i will close this with a nice closeup of the Roccat logo
So there you have it....the product showcase with selected pictures.
In the next page i will get you acquainted with the Software provided for the mouse.
Next page please.
Every gaming mouse these days have some sort of software that comes with the package.
Roccat is no exception from others so to be frank i didn't expect much level of control from their software., need less to say i was pleasantly surprised by the level of control i could get from the software (without being online all the time).
Here also i will let the pictures do the talking mostly and i will give information as needed.
Opening up the Control panel we get the Main Control Tab which has the basic controls like DPI switching , Tilt speed etc.
Please note the create profile option is available from any tab.
Next up is the Button assignments tab where you reassign and map buttons and create macro's(pretty much self-explanatory)
After that is the Advanced Control tab where you set the advanced sensitivity,polling rate etc.
Fourth tab has my favorite : color control.You can literally go crazy with any kind of color you want for the led.
and the last two tab contains R.A.D and Support.
R.A.D is kind of achievements screen for the mouse logging the usage of the mouse and giving achievements on basis of it.
that takes care of the software part...lets finish this..shall we?
I tested the mouse with a few games software's this time:
The mouse is fairly lightweight weighing in at less than 100 gms and as such the movement on any surface is pretty fast and leaves the user with no noticeable fatigue.
For the sake of convenience i will list out the PRO's and the CONS's
PRO's
Overall Roccat has manged to give an affordable High DPI mouse in a price which is just under 5000 INR (Flipkart price) and should be on the list of any gamer for consideration.
A big thanks to Tirupati Enterprise for providing me with the review samples and being patient with me.
So that takes care of this review..do read and share among your friends and any feedback will be appreciated.

I tested the mouse with a few games software's this time:
- Battlefield 3
- Command and Conquer
- Photoshop
The mouse is fairly lightweight weighing in at less than 100 gms and as such the movement on any surface is pretty fast and leaves the user with no noticeable fatigue.
For the sake of convenience i will list out the PRO's and the CONS's
PRO's
- Easy to use and lightweight.
- Good amount of software control
- Powerful Sensors and tracking.
- Overall good VFM
- Hard to maintain.
- No adjustable weights could be a turnoff to some.
Overall Roccat has manged to give an affordable High DPI mouse in a price which is just under 5000 INR (Flipkart price) and should be on the list of any gamer for consideration.
