Roccat Kone AIMO

[frozensun]

Hi guys.

I can not find over internet if this mouse is ambidextrous?

I see it looks exactly like my Kova model.

Can I use it with both hands?

As i see there are 3 tasters on the left only.

I don't think they would be an issue using mouse with left hand.

Mouse is simetrical at y-axis.

Any mouse can be used with whichever hand.
Although by design, AIMO doesn't strike me as ambidextrous.
Natural hand form is slightly tilted outward or straight throughout.
 

AFAIK, Ambidextrous mouse usually doesn't have strong tilting, and the side buttons either exist both side, or can be removed & plugged to other side.
But mainly no tilt.
Example : ASUS ROG Pugio, BenQ Zowie FK-1, Logitech G903, Logitech G Pro Wireless, Tecware Impulse+

With AIMO on left hand, your index finger will be lower than your middle finger, making the entire hand pretty much tilt inward

So those 2 side buttons would make it difficult to use with left hand?

I don't know what "tasters" are.

 

I have used this mouse. There are a total of three buttons on the left side of the mouse, one is a "paddle" in the thumbrest.  I don't think any of them would be comfortable or efficient to use with the ring or little finger, as you would have to do if you used the mouse left-handed. So the best you could do would be to use the mouse software to disable all functions from those three buttons so that it doesn't matter if you hit one by accident and simply go without any thumb buttons. 

 

The Kone Aimo is not designed as an ambidextrous mouse, and trying to use it left-handed would negate its biggest advantage, which is comfort and ergonomics. It's heavy, and the scroll wheel is prone to acting up.
