Ambidextrous. Clever DPI and light switching through mouse buttons, if a little fiddly. Accurate without being complex
A permanent DPI status light would help determine what mode the mouse is in at a glance
For a gaming mouse without software, the Kova is damn good. If you don't hold truck with macros, customisable buttons, x/y axis sensitivity and the like, this could be the one for you....
Abstract: Anyone searching for a new gaming mouse has a bewildering array of options. The market is flooded with models for every grip under the sun, with different weights and feels and cables and lifts. Yet despite the overwhelming choice, one segment of the mark...

In this test of 37 models there are only a few mice that left us with the thought 'you definitely do not want to purchase that one'. There are a lot of similarities, but there are also some models that stand out or simply perform slightly better than the...

The ROCCAT Kova has grown on me more and more over the last week or so, so much so I'd be happy to use it as my personal Gaming weapon of choice. Everything about the Kova is good; good shape (for me), good design, good tracking and excellent software. A...

Inconsistent lighting, Long winded button setup, Takes a little getting used to

Aesthetically very nice, Lighting is beautiful, Comfortable, Driverless, Good packaging,
Too light, Sensor is poor, Scroll wheel was awful, Wouldn’t work directly on my desk,
This is a nice mouse visually, it looks amazing and the lights are great. The driverless design is also a very welcome feature, but the side buttons configuration isn’t. The sensor was poor and the scroll wheel was really bad. Pros:• Aesthetically ver...
