Roccat Kone EMP Mouse Review

Rating: 8.5.

Roccat's Kone series of mice has a strong reputation that stretches back years. Today we are looking at the new Kone EMP, a mouse that is actually the successor to 2012's Kone XTD. Sporting fancy LED strips, an Owl Eye 12K DPI sensor plus Roccat's ever-present Swarm software, how does the EMP fare in 2017?

Having reviewed plenty of high-end mice recently, including both the Razer DeathAdder Elite and the ASUS ROG Gladius II, it will be very interesting to see how the Roccat Kone EMP fares in comparison.
