I like this mouse! It feels perfect in the hand, and it is obvious to me that they have put a lot of effort and thought into shaping it well for the hand. It also has more than enough buttons and with the “Easy-shift” feature you can have even “more”...

By adding a few incremental changes to the Roccat Kone[+], the Roccat Kone XTD makes for a well-designed, highly customizable gaming mouse that's a great choice for gamers, provided they don't already have the Kone[+]....
Though the Kone Pure and Kone XTD are generally excellent little hand rodents, they both offer more features and customisation than most people will ever need from a mouse, and are therefore already niche products. Sadly for the XTD, its upgraded butto...

Abstract: Today I have two items from Roccat to take a look. I will be checking out the Kone XTD Mouse and The Hiro mouse pad. These guys have been around since 2007 and I've only ever heard positive feedback about their products. Never having experienced any Rocca...
Abstract: I'm back again with more peripheral products; this time we'll take a look at what ROCCAT has to offer with two mice, a bungee, and a mousepad. Here at OCC, we've previously looked at the Kova[+] Gaming Mouse and the Kulo 7.1 USB Headset . Both were incred...

ROCCAT again hits the nail right square on the head. There is not one other mouse that I have ever tested that will offer the options, functionality or the total domination you now have the potential for with the Kone XTD under your hand. Again, since it...

I have always had a soft spot for the ROCCAT Kone and this XTD version has re-affirmed my love for this mouse. I found the mouse to be precise and accurate in use, with those lovely tactile buttons adding to the experience. I never felt out of control wh...
Abstract: We set out to build a PC with completely customizable LED lighting. And when we say the PC, we mean the whole thing. The mouse, keyboard, gamepad, enclosure, memory, fan controller, and even power supply are loaded with configurable color controls. We’...
