I bought one of these Roccat Kone Pure's (in blue) back in August - great mouse!

Couple of things to bear in mind: I had mine on a CM Storm mouse pad and it really doesn't like it (occasional skips, took me an hour or 2 of gaming to notice)... Even after the surface calibration. I tracked it down to the slight grey sweeping design on the pad, I've flipped the pad 180 degrees (to avoid as much of the design as I can) and it's perfect. Have yet to troubleshoot/try many other surfaces. An old solid shiny 'Everglide' pad it really didn't like!

The software is ok, lots of options, but damn is it slow and a system hog (I realise my system isn't the most recent), think of MSI Afterburner and triple the load time. Saving changes to a profile takes over a minute. I've been meaning to follow this up on their website, but the forums there were down when I looked.

The multiple DPI settings are great, but although the software seems to let you choose what you want - it will change them to the next closest 'default' option so you'll have to get used to those... Means that 25+ of the 'true DPI settings' are well out of any range I'll ever use. Mine goes from 800 DPI, to 1200 DPI then 2000 DPI. These are the defaults - there are no options between them. I personally would like similar to 500/900/1100/1500 but am steadily getting used to 1200. Switching DPI profiles (using mouse buttons) when in-game is very quick (almost instant).

After a couple of weeks of use (and I game probably a maximum of 6 hours a week, total) the black 'soft touch' surface has started to go smooth where my hand touches... Doesn't bother me (I've rough hands).

Despite the couple of gripes (and that's all they really are) I'm very pleased with it! I've heard lots of people having problems with scroll wheels and the like, but from my research (before I bought it) the Customer Service from Roccat have been very good and responsible to what is obviously a design/manufacturing problem. Have heard of people out of warranty still being allowed to RMA with the fault!

TLDR;
This mouse has increased my gaming skill - coming from a MS Intellimouse (v4 I think?) I made the move very easily, very similar size with much better response & accuracy! Plus the Blue is ace! ;)
 
I tracked it down to the slight grey sweeping design on the pad... An old solid shiny 'Everglide' pad it really didn't like!

Yeah the best thing is to get a matte pad, as shiny ones will just reflect like a son of a gun - and patterned ones can interfere with the laser. Silly really but tis one of them things! Glad you like the mouse though :D
