Turtle Beach Reveals the Kone II Air and Kone II Gaming Mice

Leading gaming accessories maker Turtle Beach Corporation today announced two new additions to its lineup of innovative gaming mice, the wireless Turtle Beach Kone II Air and wired Kone II ergonomic gaming mice, are available for pre-order at participating retailers worldwide and from www.turtlebeach.com. The Kone II Air and Kone II come in Ash Black or Artic White and are available for $119.99 MSRP and $69.99 MSRP, respectively.

"The iconic Kone AIMO has a long and illustrious history in gaming and is considered by many to be one of the greatest ergonomic mouse designs ever, and we've spent years ensuring its successors, the wireless Kone II Air and wired Kone II, will be just as lauded," said Cris Keirn, CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. "The new Kone II mice are great additions to our expanding PC peripherals lineup and offer an abundance of innovative features on top of best-in-class ergonomics to deliver enhanced precision, pinpoint accuracy, and lightning-fast response times."
Turtle Beach's new Kone II Air and Kone II mice leverage over a decade of ergonomic engineering to perfectly suit medium and larger hand sizes no matter the grip style - claw, palm, or fingertip. Both the wireless and wired options include additional grip tape for enhanced control, and pure, heat-treated PTFE feet for incredible glide and smooth movement across any surface.

For the wireless Kone II Air, gamers will experience the unparalleled feel and freedom of movement with Turtle Beach's ergonomic masterpiece gaming mouse. Additionally, the Kone II Air's exceptional battery life lets gamers play uninterrupted for weeks, lasting up to 350-hours via low-latency Bluetooth, or up to 130-hours via its high-performance 2.4 GHz wireless connection.

Players can further command their gameplay with the Kone II Air and Kone II's Easy-Shift[+] duplicator technology, expanding the mice's seven buttons and scroll wheel into 21 customizable functions for the Kone II Air, and 23 functions for the Kone II. The multi-function 4D scroll wheel offers free-spinning (Kone II Air only) and tactile scrolling options, plus fully customizable tilt controls to seamlessly glide through games and content. Turtle Beach's TITAN Optical Switch technology provides a tactile feel with incredible speed and durability, boasting a 100 million click life cycle, while a pre-tensioning system improves reliability and response time for the most accurate clicks. The new Kone II mice also come equipped with Turtle Beach's advanced Owl-Eye 26K Optical Sensor so PC gamers will experience superb tracking performance from 50 DPI up to 26K DPI with 650 IPS (16.5 m/s).

PC gamers can further customize their experience with five onboard profiles and multi-zone AIMO intelligent RGB lighting (dual-zone for the wireless Kone II Air, three-zone for the wired Kone II), which is programmable via the Turtle Beach Swarm II app for Windows PCs. Both mice also feature the lightweight, ultra-flexible and drag-free PhantomFlex cable, and the wireless Kone II Air also includes a USB-C to USB-A adapter.

The Kone II Air and Kone II are NVIDIA Reflex compatible to help PC gamers raise their rank and dominate the competition. NVIDIA Reflex compatibility further enhances a player's prowess, delivering sub-25 ms response times for super-fast reactions and enhanced aim precision.

As much as it didn't bother me that Turtle Beach bought Roccat, but now that they replace the typical ROCCAT logo (their feline which was really stylish) on all the products that this brand has designed with their old palm tree which looks like nothing, I find that stupid, and frankly it doesn't make me want to buy their next product.

Luckily I made reserves (buying two copies of my Vulcan II Max Black "ROCCAT" keyboard and my Kone XP Black "ROCCAT" mouse)

No, that's wrong, ROCCAT was created in 2006 and then acquired by Turtle Beach in 2019, then this year they merged this year, so no, basically ROCCAT was never Turtle Beach.

I prefer the palm tree to the feline! I often thought that Turtle Beach haven't made much out of their brand history (1975 audio equipment manufacturer based in the US). They could have capitalized on colourful designs and beach vibes, they even had an adorable turtle as possible mascot in their name. That said, I'm German and trusted Roccat more. Yet, I came to enjoy the palm tree as a logo more, mostly because fierce or evil looking motives are very common among gaming peripherals. I'm gonna give their products a try and hopf the new Swarm 2 software isn't a mess.
