Fantastic Performance in Charging Back Up
ROCCAT’s Stellar Wireless technology manages the Burst Pro Air’s wireless connectivity and battery performance. This technology constantly balances signal strength and battery usage for optimal performance. P.C. gamers also choose between a low-latency gaming-grade 2.4GHz wireless connection or a multi-purpose Bluetooth 5.2 wireless connection.
The Burst Pro Air delivers up to 100 hours of wireless performance on a single charge for uninterrupted gameplay. When it’s time to charge, the lightweight USB-C Phantom Flex cable feels as close to being “wireless” as possible and delivers five hours of gaming after just a 10-minute charge.
When it compares with other Mice
The ROCCAT Burst Core is a budget gaming mouse similar to the more premium ROCCAT Burst Pro. It has nearly an identical size and shape but has a simplified visual design. Despite slight downgrades to the sensor, cable, and feet, it has excellent build quality. It delivers a solid performance at a competitive price, making it a potentially attractive option for budget-minded gamers.

Remarkable Sensor Specification
The ROCCAT Burst Core has a reasonably wide C.P.I. range that you can adjust by increments of 100. It also has four polling rate presets, 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, and 1000Hz. Its C.P.I. variation is also very low, so you’re unlikely to notice any cursor undershooting or overshooting, whether you ‘removing your mouse quickly or slowly. However, the maximum lift-off distance is high, so you’ll have to lift the mouse significantly to keep the sensor from tracking while repositioning your mouse. For a model with a lower lift-off distance, check out the HyperX. This mouse has two side buttons on the left, plus a profile-switching button. You can also program an Easy-Shift [+] button to provide a second layer of commands.
