The Physical Characteristics comparison is just a viewable representation of the devices' length, width, height and weight. Sensor, Latency and Other Features are, instead, computed within the range 0-->100, taking into account if the variable is getting better with the increase of its value (e.g the highest max DPI, the better it is) or vice versa (the lowest Click Latency, the better); for example, a score of 50 for both devices means they are equal, scores of 70 and 30 mean that first one better. So, the data are homogeneous to provide immediate meaning, higher bar(s) means better value(s). An empty graph means that there is not enough data to compute that comparison (one value or both are missing).
Aiding our visitors to the final choice between the mice.
This final paragraph will help you in the decision making process, between Roccat Kone Pure SEL and Corsair Glaive RGB, and in selecting the mouse that is performing better and best suits your needs. We are aware that every user has own needs and preferences, due to this each mouse could be better for some features and worse for other ones. The purpose of the text is to highlight this possibility and generate an "overall score" for a purchase decision.
First of all, both mice share the same utilization aim, Gaming mouse. The first one is younger, 5 years old, being released in the 2019, while Glaive RGB is older, 7 years old, being released in the 2017. The production age difference is 2 year(s). This makes the Kone Pure SEL a bit more attractive in terms of freshness.
• Dimensions, Weight, Ergonomy 📐⚖️🫳
When it comes to evaluate mice dimensions, you should take into consideration the size of your hand and check if it would properly fit it or not. In this case, you should check which mice would be the fittest. Compared to Glaive RGB mouse, Kone Pure SEL is ~11.00 mm (or ~0.43 in) Shorter, ~Same Width and ~5.50 mm (or ~0.22 in) Lower, which makes it, overally, 16.5 mm (or -0.65 in) moderately smaller and better suiting tinier hands.
Considering the weight, Roccat Kone Pure SEL is 27% lighter, a difference of 33.00 g (0.07 lbs), which can be considered quite significant. We do not express a particular preference for heavier or lighter mice, being this a completely personal objective preference. Anyway, both mice does not offer weight personalization .
Regarding the Ergonomy, both mice are meant to be used with your right hand. They offer different grip, Palm grip, Claw grip, Fingertip grip by Kone Pure SEL while Glaive RGB has Palm grip; the first one can be considered more adaptable, with a greater number of grip possibilities equal to 3 instead of the 1 offered by the other one.
• Sensor and Latencies 🐭⏱️
Let's now compare Roccat Kone Pure SEL sensor with the one of Corsair Glaive RGB. The two mice share the same sensor technology, that is Optical, but different sensor model: PMW3325 equipped by Kone Pure SEL and PMW3367 used by Glaive RGB. It is very important to say that, although tech and model sometimes coincide, the assembly and composition of interior circuits might result in different specs and latencies.
Resolution, Max Acceleration and Max Tracking, Polling Rate and Lift Off
The mice offer different resolution range (DPImax - DPImin), the Kone Pure SEL provides 4900 DPI/CPI, while Glaive RGB offers 15900 DPI/CPI, meaning that the last one has way larger range. Consider picking up the one having the sensitivity range that mostly suits your needs, depending on the aim (Gaming/Business) but also the kind of game you are going to use it mostly (e.g. FPS is different than RTS or MOBA). If you need a higher precision mouse, meaning that for the same length of shift the mouse will recognize more movement, "reading" more dots per inch and, in other words, will move faster on the screen, Glaive RGB is offering 69% better Max Resolution, 11000 More DPI/CPI.
As for the Maximum Acceleration, which measures the maximum pull force in G(s) that the sensor can trace before inconsistencies occur, Glaive RGB shows a better value, 50 G, a significant difference of 30 G. Going on, taking into account the Maximum Tracking Speed, the velocity (inches per second) that the mouse can move at before it starts to loose track and cause anomalies, Glaive RGB shows a preferable value, 300 IPS, a significant difference of 200 IPS. Take into account that max G and max IPS mostly affect activities requiring very fast mouse shift, together with the shift latency that we will analyse further in this section.
They have a Polling Rate of 1000 Hz, in other words they report data to computer 1 time every 1.00 ms. Lastly, Kone Pure SEL and Glaive RGB share a Lift Off distance of 3 mm, above this one they will not work accurately. Anyway, they do not offer adjustable lift off distance through software.
Click and Shift Latencies
At the moment there is no available data to compare the mice click latency, since the data of Kone Pure SEL is missing. We apologize for the inconvenience, you can request priority data update through the contact page. However, Glaive RGB has a click latency of 9.4 ms which can be considered quite decent, compared to a medium quality mouse. Anyway, we feel it is important to underline that the differences in latencies are often more perceptible from the machine's point of view rather than human's, reducing the real impact of these values and deviations. At the moment there is no available data to compare the mice shift latency, since the data of Kone Pure SEL is missing. Contact us to request priority data update. However, Glaive RGB has a shift latency of NaN ms which can be considered not so good, compared to a medium quality mouse.
• Other Features 📎
Let's now have a look, finally, to the general features of the two mice. They are equipped with the same Switch Technology, Omron; moreover, the lifespan of first mouse is 20 millions clicks while the second is 500 millions clicks, 60% worse Lifespan, a difference of 30 millions clicks that can be evaluated very significant. The Feet Material is the same, PTFE. Considering the available Number of Buttons, 7 offered by first mouse and 6 offered by the second one, a small difference of 1 that can be considered important or not depending on the utilization purpose. In the end, the features offered by Roccat Kone Pure SEL are On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB, while Corsair Glaive RGB is giving On board Memory, DPI Indicator, RGB Lighting, Customizable RGB.
