As the original Kone, AIMO was designed for people with larger hands, while its comfortable shape does really help during longer gaming sessions. With the revised LED lighting setup, Kone AIMO looks more interesting than before, and thanks to the 4D silent titan scroll wheel, the lateral buttons and the EasyShift[+] function, we can assign plenty of macros to it.
The Swarm software from ROCCAT is easy to use and depending on the peripherals we are using, its interface will modify accordingly. We do have a section for pinning the functions we do use most, while in the Settings, Button Assignment, Advanced Settings and Illumination take care of all the necessary functions. The application does also allow profile management, while the Macros can be defined from a separate window, in detail.
Kone AIMO does use the Owl-Eye sensor from PixArt, which was designed in cooperation with ROCCAT (PMW3361); besides the DCU, we can adjust the DPI values from 100 to 12000, in steps of 100.
As a negative aspect, we would like to mention that at 130g the mouse is a bit on the heavy side and does not feature a configurable weight system.
Price-wise, the ROCCAT Kone AIMO mouse can be found online for about 60 Euros, which is quite fair considering the integrated features, along with the proven sensor.
