Hi guys, I'm in dire need of a new mouse (my cheap-as-chips PC Line laser mouse that has served me well for years has started going senile....mouse pointer goes haywire from time to time for no good reason and it's making Blender/Unity work a right pain in the bum).
I'm looking at the ROCCAT Kone [+] after a gazillion favourable reviews (including Hexus) saying it's the perfect mouse, however for every positive review there are 10 negative comments from other users who have had issues with the scroll wheel after 2 months of normal use. (Google "roccat kone+ scroll wheel problem" and you'll see what I mean).
What I'm trying to establish is whether this is as wide-spread as some people would have you believe. After all, people who are happy with a product are far less likely to take to the internet to write an essay on how great it is than they are to rant about how terrible it is. I'm kinda hoping that it's the latter, as there aren't any other mice that really interest me in that price range. (ROCCAT reckon they have a 1% failure rate, but then they would say that.)
So, are there any ROCCAT Kone [+] users out there who have been using the mouse for at least a year without any issues at all?
Or, if you did have issues with the scroll wheel, did the latest firmware update (which claims to resolve the issue) fix the problem?
