Overview
A lightweight gaming mouse with excellent capabilities packed into a small body, the Roccat Burst Pro Air is also reasonably priced.
With this mouse, Roccat gives the wired Burst model wireless functionality.
Although it’s appealing to the eye, how is it used for gaming?
Let’s look into this.
Wireless Convenience
There are numerous benefits to wireless freedom. Users have the choice of gaming-grade 2.4GHz and Bluetooth 5.2 dual connectivity with the Roccat Burst Pro Air, which provides that. You can rely on the bundled dongle to provide a reliable, low-latency connection to your gaming PC and responsiveness. Since it is also Nvidia Reflex compatible, you can be sure that it has a superior sensor and quick response times.
Battery Capabilities
The Burst Pro Air’s battery life does not live up to the 100-hour claim made by Roccat, as we have discovered.
However, as is always the case with battery life, it depends on how you use it. In this situation, adjusting the battery settings in Roccat’s Swarm programme and the brightness of the RGB lighting can help you get a little bit longer life.
That’s a little drawback, but the mouse has quick charging capabilities, which is fantastic news. In other words, you can gain an additional five hours of power in just 10 minutes of plugging in when the battery is getting low. Additionally, the supplied Phantom Flex cable is delightfully pliable, floppy, and doesn’t stop.
Handy and Comfortable
According to the Roccat Burst Pro Air’s marketing, its symmetrical design makes it suitable for both left- and right-handed players. However, the side buttons are on the left, so take that for what it is worth.
It’s not the biggest mouse we’ve ever encountered, but it’s also not the smallest either. It will be enjoyable to use for claw grippers, and even if you have little hands, you’ll enjoy it. However, we could suggest exploring elsewhere for players with large hands.
Two heat-treated pure PTFE slides are located on the underside. These delightfully silky skates make sure that the mouse can go about on your mousemat with ease. Additionally, those skates are silent and scratch-free, which is wonderful.
Storage Spot for USB
Under there is also a storage compartment for the USB dongle to save it while not in use and a button to swap between mouse modes. You can customize and save up to five onboard memory configurations, and you can then quickly switch between them by pressing this button. In order to quickly identify the profile, you are using, doing so also temporarily alters the colour of the RGB lighting.
There is a DPI button on atop of the mouse that you can use to choose between five different DPI levels that you can modify in the program up to 19,000 DPI. We enjoy the option to modify this so that, if you like, you can just have two or three levels.
