Our Verdict

ROCCAT Kone AIMO Remastered

ROCCAT Kain 120 AIMO

The ROCCAT Kain 120 AIMO and the ROCCAT Kone AIMO Remastered are both wired gaming mice. The Kain 120 AIMO is much lighter, and its size and shape is better suited for larger-sized hands using a claw or fingertip grip. Also, it has a more flexible braided cable and lower click latency. Comparatively, the Kone AIMO Remastered has a thumb rest, better build quality, and more programmable buttons, including a button at the bottom of its thumb rest.
