Features and Pictures

The Kone Pure’s shape looks odd at first, sloping off to the left and appearing almost as if the peripheral was designed purely for left-handed gamers. Once grabbing the mouse in a natural position, however, you notice that the design is actually quite comfortable and offers a place for your ring and pinky to sit rather than just hanging off the side. The coating is a matt satin finish, which I personally prefer as it prevents slippage of you hand. The standard 6ft connection cord is made from braided nylon and feels durable.

The pair of side buttons are placed in a natural position to allow the thumb easy access that doesn’t feel strange or odd, and the sensitivity of these button presses is at a nice median between firm and reactionary, requiring deliberate presses but not so light for accidental commands to register.

The slope of the main buttons is at a natural incline. The scroll wheel is wide and gives a mice tactile response when scrolling which makes the action feel deliberate. The wheel press also gives a very distinct tactile response, which is a must in gaming mice design.

The left side of the mouse doesn’t have much going on but there is a nice space and a small lip to allow you to separate your typically unused fingers into a nice comfortable position. There is also a slight lip here that assists in repeatedly picking the mouse up and down while moving without the worry of dropping it.

The underside of the Kone Pure has two large Teflon gliders as well as this is where we find the Pro-Aim Sensor R3, ROCCATs personal high-DPI laser sensor. The gliders span the length of the front and rear of the mouse allowing you free movement no matter where you place weight.
