Before Turtle Beach dissolved the Roccat brand, the original Kone Air attempted to pair a modest price tag with a wireless connection. While it got the job done, it made too many sacrifices to truly be considered one of the best gaming mouse models on the market. The new generation is here, though, and I couldn’t be happier. The Turtle Beach Kone II Air does up the price tag, to around double that of the original, but boosts the sensor significantly and adds a rechargeable battery - all in a much slicker feeling chassis.
I’ve spent the last two weeks testing the wireless Air model, though there’s also a cheaper $69.99 / £59.99 wired model that shares the same functionality and design. It’s a premium pointer considering its wider base, but in a market led by the super light, it’s certainly got a lot to say.
