ROCCAT Kone[+] – Max Customization Gaming Mouse
The ROCCAT Kone[+] - Max Customization Gaming Mouse is ROCCAT's top gaming mouse and the latest version of the award winning Kone mouse. This generation ups the ante to a 6000 dpi engine with an integrated Tracking & Distance Control Unit (TDCU). The Kone[+] isn't just an upgrade to the laser system, it's marketed as the most customizable mouse available.
Kone[+] is a wired palm grip mouse with an attractive accent lighting that looks better in person. The only other accent is the ROCCAT logo across the back and a smaller branding on the left side in blue and silver. The larger logo sort of reminds me of the Thundercats logo but I do think it looks pretty cool.
