More than a year after the original Burst Pro, ROCCAT presents the wireless Burst Pro Air. Equipped with PixArt's PAW3370 sensor, the 81 g Burst Pro Air promises up to 100 hours of battery life, and comes with 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. Optical switches for the main buttons and pure PTFE feet are still on board, too.

Roccat is making desktop lamps now... apparently they work as mice too lol

I think im going to return to those lightless beige 1980's mustard builds before RGB blinds me into the rainbow

Whoa. What is wrong with this company. Their keyboards look nice but their mice are more expensive and the worst performing items on the market.

Bummer.

The Roccat Burst Core is one of the best rated mice that @pzogel has reviewed, and only cost $29.

I am actually using my Burst Core as I type this. :)

That being said, yeah Roccat messed up big time on this one. Still happy I have my Burst Core though. It's been a great travel mouse.

Using a burst pro myself, pretty good mouse, feels great with my grip, however I do have one issue and that is the button under the scroll wheel is bad.
Died on me within a year, got it replace under warrant, I also repaired the broken one myself, it seems that the air suffers from the same problem.

Could you test again with the latest firmware version?
Recently, I confirmed Roccat updated the firmware modifying the instability of Burst pro air.
I'm wondering Burst pro air still has some issues you mentioned.
