Since I found out their price is not far from each other, I need some advice to choose between Roccat Kone and Sidewinder X8. I like Kone for the design and lighting but technical X8 seems much better options. Or maybe there is better mouse you can recommends which not too far from RM250?

Any advice, recommendations is highly appreciated. Thanks smile.gif

hard to compare since one is wired and the other one is wireless. Maybe you can wait for Razer Imperator with the 4G sensor, should be coming soon.

The X8 is kinda awesome. My friend has one and it feels very very solid. Performance wise, I can't complain. Haven't been using it for that long but he says it performs admirably.

X8 does have a wired mode also right? Yeah, the Imperator looks good with 5K DPI. But still, Kone sleek lighting design kinda wave my thought on technical details.. tongue.gif

X8 is already running low in stock around LYP since Microsoft discontinued their Sidewinder line. I think Thunder Match might have a few units left.

Imperator 4G or Logitech G700. If you can topup RM50+ then maybe you can get Xai.

Guys, my A4tech X7-750G mouse just died on me. Cable problem but I think it still can be fix.

However, can someone suggest me a wired mouse that par with A4tech X7-750G mouse (performance and budget)?

compared krait with m8000x, how's the size difference?
*
For size comparison, krait is ambidextrous and m8000x is right handed.

Shape, M8000X would be taller.

Size, M8000X will be slightly larger than krait.

i owned Gigabyte M8000 and Gigabyte M8000X, seriously these 2 mouse lack of quality, the mouse coating peeling after 3 month of usage, M8000 mouse wheel died after 1 month of usage, and M8000X firmware failure with button 1, left click function rendered useless everywhere, i bind macro the left button function to every key and it doesn't work.

Gigabyte mouse disappoints me the most.

G700, it is one of the best mouse i use so far.

Previous mouse i have used are, MX510, MX518, Roccat Kone, Razer deathadder, Gigabyte M8000, Gigabyte M8000X, Logitech G9, Sidewinder X 5

For best bang for bucks, i think G700 is the best if you compare in terms of price. for comfort is it also one of the best and easy to clean mouse compare to other mouse. plus the mouse is actually RM250 below.

wireless response are very responsive, they are instant. and there's no delay. i was quite surprise at first, because i brought the mouse because of the feature it offers me, buttons and mouse pooling rate, average-heavy weight mouse, and MACRO!, Not Wireless, because i am consider it is a plus, since wireless gaming grade mouse are expensive RM300+ above(sidewinder X8, and Razer Mamba) But i soon found out that i use wireless more frequently than wired.(i only use wired for charging and using at the same time, when it is full, i will use wireless back.)

Sanded surface provides better gripping and feels comfortable as well, thou starting when i saw the mouse, i was worry with the comfort issue, but to my surprise, the surface was really comfortable and easy to clean if you wanted to compare to Gigabyte gaming mouse series that have rubber grip with hole.

i personally hated rubber grip with holes because you can't clean them easily because all the skin waste will all stuck into the hole and requires you to use toothpick to clean one per one, esspecilly, there's about 80 holes to let you poke every each of them.

G700 doesn't have any cons, but you are picky, then i should have say first, the mouse have 2 things that might annoy you. one is the stiff cable, be aware that the cable(not braided) is much more thicker than other conventional mouse that you purchase. Second is Battery Life span varies upon what setting you choose for the mouse, they will last longer if DPI and pooling rate lower. so don't complain about low battery lifespan when you set everything to max such as 5000+ dpi and 1000mhz pooling rate. they could still last you a day or 2.

3rd is extra, the extra button is actually very very very useful once you learn to use them, these button are very well positioned and convenient to use, once you get used to the buttons and such. so consider them as extra. but they are very handy to use.

And Final, i pay for the mouse and i love it. and would like to get 2nd for traveling usage, i have recommended a lot of my friends, and they all brought it and love the mouse. you can ask one of them, username : Kahjye .

I used to be roccat lover, but as soon as roccat gain fame in all over the world, they started to release overprice product such as Roccat Kone+, based on comparison price, feature Factor, the price we pay for RM350+ above for a mouse that has same spec and even have wireless feature that only cost RM250 below, Which would be better?

i don't like the fact that we pay premium price just for few bling bling LED, if that's the case, i rather pay premium price for durable product.

For users who pay premium price for bling bling LED feature, no offense made, please go ahead.

lol wdf, M8600 RM370? doh.gif then Xai will be the obvious choice.
Ikari Laser is overpriced imho, you can easily pick Imperator 4G with that budget.
