As far as I read from the ROCCAT website, the only difference between the ROCCAT Kone[+] and the Roccat Kone XTD is the dpi (6000 vs 8000), yet there's a big price difference where I live ($63 versus $105).

Is the Kone XTD just overpriced, or is there a significant difference I am missing?

  • You also have different weights, system requirements (windows 8 only on XTD), languages, etc. – Batophobia Oct 31 '13 at 18:11
  • @Batophobia: Both have 4*5g weights, and weight about the same. i don't relly care about the languages (need only english) There are drivers for both win7 and 8 (i am using win 7), so is there any sagnificant change other than these? – Mickey Oct 31 '13 at 18:52
  • I'm not seeing a significant price difference on Amazon between new Kone[+] and new Kone XTD, unless one considers $1.50 (sale) or $10 (list) significant. – SevenSidedDie Oct 31 '13 at 19:44
  • at my countrey xtd costs about 105$, and the cone[+] costs ~63$... So you suggest buying the [+] rather than the xtd? @SevenSidedDie – Mickey Oct 31 '13 at 20:21
  • @Mickey I'm only saying that the price difference you're seeing has more to do with the people/company you're considering buying from than any actual difference in the price that Roccat is selling them for. It's entirely possible that supply and demand differences are more relevant than actual hardware differences. – SevenSidedDie Oct 31 '13 at 20:40
  • @SevenSidedDie: is the shape and size of the [+] the same as the size and shape of the xtd, and are they both palm grip? – Mickey Oct 31 '13 at 20:45
