Unfortunately, this mouse from Logitech is no longer manufactured and are still in
Trade located MX518 will cost a fortune.
Thus, it was high time to look around times for a new rodent.
Various mice I have due to the optics and the at that time for me still paper-based and theoretical performance values
drawn shortlisted. The Roccat whose appearance I liked very much, I took because of the price relatively late in my
Selection.
All theoretical banter did not help me but ultimately further, so I finally had time to start testing the mice.
Due to a flash offer on Amazon the Kone Pure the first mouse was then but what I wanted to test.
Like most other mice also (regardless of manufacturer) the mouse is very attractively packaged.
She came in a nice black box, which is bevelled on one edge (see figure). Inside the boxes, the mouse is
on a black plastic surface and is covered with transparent plastic.
In addition to the mouse can be found in the box also a mehrafch folded Quick Inatallationsguide on which you in several languages, the
Installation and specify the Internet address takes place from which you should download the drivers.
Although I prefer to have it when a CD beiligt, but that's a subjective sensation.
If you have installed the driver and looking at the settings, you will be an old MX518 users only times overwhelmed by the complexity and
Number of ways. Despite this complexity, you find yourself but deal rather quickly. Negative I find here only that a language
Localization only extends to a small translation of the field name appears very bashful bottom left when you move the cursor over the field to be set.
If you have made all the settings and adjust everything according to his ideas, then finally go to the try out.
The Kone Pure is very comfortable to hold and is at approximately the same length slightly lower than that compared quite hunchbacked Logitech MX518.
The surface of the mouse is fully rubber which feels very pleasant.
All keys have a very pleasant pressure point and can always be easily reached, if one disregards the two buttons just behind the Scrolrad that one anyway but probably rarely used and probably with no other function than the increase or decrease in Abtatstrate will occupy.
The illuminated emblem is a nice gimmick, but will always hidden when you use the mouse from the palm.
All keys can be doubly occupy and in conjunction with five storable profiles so it follows an enormous number of Tatsenbelegungsmöglichkeiten.
Very good I also like the textile coated mouse cable. Although this is with its two meters for my particular situation a little too short, I had this problem but at far all my previous mice and also it can be easily rectified with an extension cord.
Since my Kone Pure previously liked a lot, I decided to keep this and to test any other mice.
Whether this was ultimately a good decision will be seen after a long period of use.
Currently, I am of the opinion that you get a mouse with the Roccat Kone Pure the total-quality acts as the above-named comparison mouse, but also costs twice the original MX518 price.
