GAMING SPECIAL

Roccat Tyon

This is one of the highest-performing wireless mice

I’ve ever used, and you’ll never need to recharge it

while on the road. If you travel a lot, toss one of these

in your bag for those hotel room gaming sessions.

Best MMO gaming mouse

Roccat Tyon

Price: £79 inc VAT from fave.co/2YOdl5X

The era of ‘the more buttons, the better’ has mostly

the Tyon is a beast. One of the thumb

effectively doubles the

and it’s an intuitive

approach that

balances out the key’s
