Roccat Kone XP (wired)
In my opinion, This is the best mouse I've had so far (i dont have any comparions in the same price range). Much better than my Roccat Burst Pro but that is cheaper. The main reason I bought this is because of the Custom Lighting LEDs and overall design which it definitely delivers on. It has a smooth feel with no noticeable edges and the click noise is good. Plenty of buttons to mess around with that dont get in my way. The software is fun to mess around on as there are alot of settings to change. About the same as SteelSeries GG software. I bought this at the $75 price point which i believe is fair compared to what you can get for other brands. Overall great mouse!

Ergonomic and Customizable Gaming Mouse!
The Kone XP gaming mouse by Roccat is terrific. This is my first Roccat gaming mouse and it has certainly left a remarkable first impression on the kind of gaming products Roccat has to offer. This mouse is wired and is unique with the translucent top RGB lighting. I remember an era where transparent tech products were a fad, while it is not looking like transparent tech is coming back, at least Roccat is keeping it somewhat alive with this translucent mouse. *TLDR at the bottom ============= IN THE BOX: In the box, you get the Kone XP gaming mouse (wired only), an extra set of mouse feet, and a quick start guide. The setup was quick and simple. Just make sure to obtain the proper drivers and install the Roccat Swarm software which can be accessed through the following link: https://support.roccat.com/s/downloads?language=en_US&co=us ============= COMFORT AND DESIGN: The mouse is ergonomic and comfortable even after using it for an extensive amount of time. The mouse feels light which is great for FPS or fast-paced adventure games. In terms of design, this is a neat mouse, The translucent top adds a uniqueness to the mouse that not many other mouses have. There are 15 buttons on this mouse all programmable through the Roccat Swarm software. The only buttons which felt awkward to reach were the DPI buttons (plus and minus buttons) but overall, the button placement was excellent and didn’t bother me. The mouse’s cable is soft and flexes well. It did not bother me at all while gaming, it almost felt like the cable wasn’t present at all! The mouse also has an “Easy-Shift[+]” button which allows one to program more functions into the mouse. ============= PERFORMANCE and SWARM SOFTWARE: The mouse is responsive, and the light weight of the mouse helped it feel snappier. I tried out adventure games like Tomb Raider and FPS games like Destiny 2, and the mouse handled the games well. No complaints on performance! Roccat’s Swarm software can be used to fully customize the mouse to your liking. I found the software to be polished and simple to use. I did enjoy playing around with the different customization options for this mouse. There are many options to play around with so I won’t list them all here, but the following are some features that can be customized on the Kone XP: -DPI can be set as low as 50 or as high as 19000 -Vertical scroll speed from 1-10 -5 profiles available for customization -Macros can be created within the Macro Manager -Button assignments can be set for all 15 buttons (29 total assignments with Easy-Shift[+]) -The RGB lighting on the top can be customized -LED time out and more! ============= CONCLUSION/TLDR: Overall, the Kone XP is an excellent gaming mouse. For the price, you will be getting a myriad of incredible features. There are 15 buttons on the mouse, and all can be assigned a certain function. With the Easy-Shift [+] button one can assign even more functions. Roccat’s Swarm software is polished and is simple to use so there won’t be any confusion when it comes to customizing the mouse to your needs. The mouse’s ergonomics allow for comfort and efficiency which can help you take your gaming to the next level. I do wholeheartedly recommend you give the Kone XP a try.
