Our Verdict
ROCCAT Kone Pure Ultra
ROCCAT Kone Pro Air
The ROCCAT Kone Pro Air is an updated, wireless version of the ROCCAT Kone Pure Ultra. The Pro Air connects wirelessly either with its USB receiver or via Bluetooth. You can also use it wired with its charging cable. It has mouse feet that glide more smoothly, a wider CPI range, and lower click latency. On the other hand, the Kone Pure Ultra has two CPI buttons behind the scroll wheel for making on-the-fly CPI adjustments, a feature the Kone Pro Air lacks. The two mice are nearly the same size, but the Kone Pro Air is more accomodating to extra-large hands than the Kone Pure Ultra.
