Review Summary
The Roccat ROC-11-520 Kova[+] Max Performance Gaming Mouse is a gaming-grade mouse featuring an optical sensor that allows you to adjust its sensitivity between four settings. The mouse also features an Easy-Shift[+] button duplicator, V shape for right or left-handed mousing, rubberized wheel and included software for customization. The Easy-Shift[+] button doesn't just give you access to seven mouse buttons plus the mouse wheel - you also get access to 16 additional functions at the touch of a button. The Easy-Shift[+] button is similar to the shift key on a keyboard. If you hold down the Easy-Shift[+] button while pressing one of the other standard mouse buttons, you can program a second function (dual-assignment).
The Kova[+] also features Sound Feedback. The mouse informs you of any changes to the dpi, profile or sensitivity settings by reading them aloud. This means there are no additional displays to distract you from gameplay, so your full attention can remain on screen. A multicolor LED system allows the mouse to light up in seven different colors - plus the mouse can be further personalized with color rotation and other lighting effects using the driver. You can even assign colors to profiles, so when you switch profiles the color changes, too.
The Kova[+] sits nicely in both the left and right hand. Thanks to a slightly raised ridge on the upper casing, you can control the Kova[+] with maximum precision. The Griptech side areas extend all the way to the top of the Kova[+], letting you hold the mouse securely when lifting it. In addition, the new Soft-Touch Coating offers amazing grip, complementing the non-slip performance of the familiar solid rubber Griptech side areas.
