Who each one is for
The G-Wolves HSK Pro is the one to take for competitive FPS players wanting the lowest possible wireless weight and small to medium hands using fingertip or claw grip, though it is not built for palm grip players with larger hands and anyone who wants RGB lighting. Buy the Roccat Burst Pro for budget-conscious buyers who still want a flagship-tier sensor and ambidextrous grip users wanting a light symmetrical shell, though it is the wrong buy for anyone who wants a wireless connection and palm grip users wanting a fuller ergonomic shape. Our rating of the G-Wolves HSK Pro (8/10): one of the lightest wireless mice available from an established boutique brand, built specifically for fast, competitive FPS play. Our rating of the Roccat Burst Pro (8/10): A genuine budget-flagship pick, offering Roccat's best sensor and switch tech without the wireless price premium.
