Comfortable but unreliable
I bought this mouse a year and a half ago and it's very comfortable to use.
However, after barely 1 year, the scroll wheel started to malfunction (it wouldn't go down any more, and/or it jumped back) even after cleaning off the small amount of dirt on it. It was used for about 1 hour a day.
So I'm disappointedReview automatically translated -

Handy, light, the clicking noise is special but you get used to it, just perfect for little hands!

A major recurring problem with the scroll wheel is that when you scroll, it regularly scrolls 1 or 2 notches in the other direction (for example, if you scroll down, it suddenly goes back up). It's very annoying and Roccat are aware of the problem. They have no solution.
But that doesn't stop them from continuing to produce and sell them.

defective knob after only 3 months of use
Good mouse, light with a good grip, glides easily over the carpet.
But after only 3 months of use, the vertical scroll wheel sensor started to malfunction.
When you scroll down (or up) a page, very frequently (about 1 in 3 steps) the vertical scrolling is either interrupted or done in the opposite direction. And this happens whether you turn the wheel quickly or very slowly.
The mouse was used normally, not intensively. In view of the other comments here and more generally on the internet, it would seem that this is a recurring problem.
Roccat support recommends cleaning/dusting the wheel contact. This did not solve the problem for me. After opening, the inside was spotless, no dust or anything that could interfere with the thumbwheel sensor. The sensor is just faulty.Review automatically translated -

A small mouse for a big game
I'm not the one giving this rating, it's my 13-year-old grandson who tried out this mouse. He asked me to order it. But it's still in its package, waiting for Santa to put it under the tree. He can't wait for Christmas to come so he can enjoy it.

Very good but not very solid...
I bought this mouse in June for minecraft, fortnite and lots of games, but after a few months, the scroll wheel started to bug: it didn't detect whether I was moving up or down, so it did one of the two at random.

Good value for money
I'm not a gamer but I like the lighting on keyboards and mice when I'm working in the dark.
I swapped my Steelseries mouse (whose scroll wheel was starting to act up) for this Roccat.
Installation went without a hitch and the driver is very comprehensive.
The mouse is fairly light and its backspace button is too far back; the thumb has to bend all the way back to click. That's the only criticism I've had, which cost it one star.Review automatically translated -

Discover the brand through this product
A lightweight mouse, extremely customisable via dedicated software and very efficient to use. I've always been used to Logitech and I don't regret this change.

Efficient, precise and light
Simple but effective wired mouse. No frills, just the essentials for gaming. Lightweight and accurate, suitable for FPS games.
The price is a bit high, but the quality of manufacture seems to be good. In addition, the ROCCAT Swarm software does not seem to be intrusive in the operation, a little more than some configuration software that can interfere in the operation and be the cause of bug.
I recommend this model from this serious brand.Review automatically translated -

A great success
Tired of the fragility of the Steelseries mice -very good for office work, but for gaming, you have to dare to click nervously sometimes- I had kept in mind its elder sister, the Kone pure ultra... too late. This one had replaced it. Not really convinced, neither by its aesthetics, nor by its price, I went through all the tests before ordering it, not without the feeling of taking a risk. Then it arrived. I unpacked it, and the first good point was that I found it much more balanced, more attractive on the carpet than on the photos - the lady is not photogenic! Good.
So let's say it now, the Kone pro is not a perfect mouse. The all-plastic (although excellent quality), the lack of programmable buttons (one more behind the wheel, and one more on the side would have been possible and welcome), the very present noise of its right and left clicks and its dispensable RGB (I deactivate it personally) will not suit everyone.
BUT: its handling is just crazy. Light, easy to handle, you forget about it right away. Braided cable, spare pads, USB port protection cap included. Durable optical clicks, which you can feel will not flinch, and the icing on the cake: a thumbwheel, my friends! Wide, fluid, adjustable, silent, made of aluminium.... a treat! I who scrolls a lot, often on small stumps of wheels that wobble very quickly, there ... I am conquered! No, seriously, for those who are not afraid of its 80 euros, who are a little nervous in game and who do not need a computer instead of a mouse, I warmly recommend it. Roccat didn't mess with us.Review automatically translated
