ROCCAT Burst Pro Air Review 9

ROCCAT Burst Pro Air Review

Shape & Dimensions »

Packaging


Aside from the mouse itself, a USB Type-C to Type-A charging cable, wireless dongle, and quick start guide are in the box.

Weight


My scale shows around 81 g (+/- 1 g), which is exactly in line with the weight cited by ROCCAT. Compared to the wired Burst Pro, the Burst Pro Air adds around 11 g, mostly due to the battery and additional LEDs. While not overly heavy, the Burst Pro Air clearly falls behind the competition, including ROCCAT's own Kone Pro Air.

Cable


The Burst Pro Air comes with a paracord-like, braided charging cable (Type-A to Type-C). Though not quite on the same tier as charging cables of the recent ASUS ROG, Razer Viper V2 Pro or Glorious wireless offerings in terms of flexibility, it is not far behind, and easily more flexible than that of the Razer DeathAdder V2 Pro, for instance. As such, I consider this cable flexible enough to allow using the Burst Pro Air wired without feeling overly restricted. The cable is 1.80 m long.

As the Burst Pro Air lacks a wireless extender, the wireless dongle must be plugged directly into a USB port. When doing so, as per Intel's documentation, it is strongly recommended not to use a USB 3.x port, as ports of this type may introduce interference adversely affecting wireless operation. A storage compartment for the wireless dongle is located on the underside of the mouse.

Feet


The feet on the Burst Pro Air are non-dyed pure PTFE (Teflon) feet with slightly rounded edges. Glide is excellent with thickness being average. Upon closer inspection, one can see that the feet appear more translucent than most other mice, due to minimal dye being used. Similar to the Burst Pro, these are heat-treated to ensure optimal glide out of the box, the feet require no perceivable break-in period.
