GLORIOUS Gaming Model D Wired Gaming Mouse - 68g Superlight Honeycomb Design, RGB, Ergonomic, Pixart 3360 Sensor, Omron Switches, PTFE Feet, 6 Buttons - Matte Black

Even though Glorious is not one of the big brands it competes with like Logi or Razor, they are definitely up there on the podium! Sleek honeycomb design makes it extremely lightweight. The oversized body is great for good grips. My partner has small hands and was uncomfortable at first, but you do get used to it, again, because of it's shape and weight! Now she loves it! Ideal for beginners and amateurs of gaming, the quality of the clicks feels very satisfying. Although if you're a pro, you might wanna search for a different, thinner and smaller body. It performs very well and because it is wired you don't have to worry about battery changing. I love the RGB colour scheme on it and the fact you can customize it. You got the extra buttons that are fully recognised by any and all games that I've been playing, which means you can use Shortcuts for like reloading and throwables. The scrolling wheel is very smooth and responsive, and so is the response of your movements, there is no latency at all! I appreciate it, and appreciate the fact that it comes at a relatively acceptable price and they even give you the option to pay in installments should you prefer that. Will definitely purchase more devices from Glorious!

I upgraded to this mouse from the Mionix Naos 3200 (152g!), which I used for 4 years. I've been meaning to upgrade for a while, since something has felt off with the 3200 for a while. Firstly, the product is simply but nicely packaged. You get spare feet, some stickers and an instruction manual. Software is downloadable and adds standard stuff for a mouse of this quality like adjustable DPI, configurable lighting and macros. Cable is light and moves smoothly, absolutely no issues whatsoever. I have very big hands. This mouse suits me for fingertip grip perfectly, but big hands can definitely palm or claw it with ease. I imagine it's perfect for claw/palm for medium hands. Small hands may struggle with it. The mouse slides very smoothly. Clicks are precise and nicely weighted. I don't know if it's me but the side buttons are not easily reached, I would like them lower down, which shouldn't be a problem design-wise as they require a firm push to click in. Middle mouse button scrolls quite fast which could be a problem if you need it for precision but I only use it to change weapon in CoD. Again it has a nice click, like the other switches. Sensor precision is massively tangible over the 3200 I was using. After playing a little CoD I loaded up Kovaak's to really test it. I'm not kidding, I literally got new high scores in every scenario. I was blown away. If you are using an old mouse, I can not recommend upgrading enough. I love this mouse. After the initial weirdness of the new shape, it feels amazing. I can't find any faults with it except the minor things above which really are just a matter of taste.

Edit 1: Unfortunately the mouse developed a squeaky scroll wheel, and I have been sent a replacement. Edit 2: The replacement looks like an older version (with blue skates and the non-ascended cable), I'll update if this one squeaks too. Grip/Ergonomics: As someone with large hands (just over 20x10cm) who used a G502 Proteus (absolutely fantastic mouse), the Model D transitions seamlessly over and fits my hand like a glove, the mouse fills almost my entire palm (which I did not think was possible) and the hump of the mouse is even more ergonomic than the G502. There is also ample space to rest your thumb on the side of the mouse, whilst simultaneously keeping the side buttons in reach. I went with the matt white finish as I'm not a fan of the reduced grip glossy texture offers (and finger prints), and the weight reduction cutouts are also practically invisible in terms of touch. I should also mention the weight of the mouse, of course it was a bit of an adjustment initially coming from the much heavier G502 (no weights), but it is very light and transforms flicks and fast turns (for a low sens player) into a much more natural motion and not an arm workout compared to the G502 lol. Finally, the mouse skates are a great improvement over the G502, and those were very solid, so that says a lot. The mouse glides effortlessly over my QCK Heavy. Its gonna take a bit for me to stop swiping my mouse like im trying to scrub the desk, but thats what years of using a heavy mouse does to you lol. Sensor/Buttons: The sensor is top notch right up there with the G502's. As for the m1 and m2 buttons, there is a very very slight travel before the mouse clicks register compared to the G502 (I'm talking like 1/3 of a mm) but after using it for as little as an hour, I got completely used to it and overall the buttons feel clicky and crisp just like the G502. The scroll wheel however is very comfortable and wayyy better than the G502's metallic mess (the biggest flaw of that mouse imo) and responsive, but not so much that you would accidentally hit the wheel while clicking. There is no squeaking and the rubber ring offers great grip. The side buttons are clicky and responsive too and are placed in a easy to reach position, I had no issues discerning the two buttons/hitting both at the same time etc. One thing to note however is that this mouse has less buttons than the G502, so if you NEED ALL of the ones on your G502, then this is something to bear in mind. On the Model D, there is no 3rd side button, no extra two buttons on the edge of mouse1, and also the scroll wheel does not tilt and click left and right. As a CSGO player, I have no issues, as the mouse offers pretty much the standard amount of buttons that you need, keeping it simple and effective. Cable/Cord: I was sceptical about the Ascended cable at first thinking it to be just a gimmick, but holy crap the cable feels durable yet lightweight, fluid, and flexible. It really does feel like there is no cord, giving an almost wireless feeling. I was considering getting a mouse bungee for my G502, but now with the Model D, that's not needed. The cable lies flat on my desk and flexes unnoticeably when swiping the mouse, unlike the G502's which was way more rigid and heavy, and swiping would sometimes cause it to push it self off the edge of my desk, driving me insane. I'd recommend keeping the cable away from sharp edges however as I think the threads on the cable could tear/fray. Lighting/Build Quality: The RGB lighting is bright and vibrant. As for the build quality, the mouse feels sturdy and well built, despite its fragile-looking appearance. The mouse buttons on mine, don't flex or wobble, so I'm satisfied in terms of durability. Conclusion: Overall I think this mouse is a fantastic upgrade from the G502, just note that the drastic change in mouse weight will take some getting used to. The price (£53) I paid feels fair for the quality of the product, and most importantly, the ergonomic shape and perfect fit for my large hands. Props to Glorious for listening to the target audience and actually offering features that are wanted, without all the gimmicky list of "extra features" that are often used to charge more.

Starting with the ergonomics, the mouse fits my large hand perfectly and the shape allows me to grip the mouse without any discomfort. The LEDs are personal preference and can be changed or turned off within the software. The weight of the mouse and the cable are extremely light and I find it perfect for FPS games. The switches are nice and clicky and the skates are pretty smooth. While I wouldn't call this an expensive mouse, I also don't think that this is exactly a cheap mouse. After using it for about a week the left and right mouse buttons started to develop some play, nothing deal breaking but definitely noticeable. At the same time the scroll wheel started to rattle slightly when scrolling down. After about a month of using the side housing on the mouse started to flex out a little which can be felt by applying very little force to push it back in. Although this does seem to be a little nitpicky but every time I go to grip the mouse, I feel the and hear the side housing creak. In the end this mouse is brilliant but with the issues with QC/build quality slowly appearing, I can't vouch for how well it will stand the test of time.

Surprised that this was the mouse I liked the most of the 6 I tried. I came from a Deathadder V2 and this is the most comfortable/similar in shape with nice clicks. Would recommend if you can't find a replacement Deathadder V2 or want something cheaper

Loved this mouse. It lasted me a few years before the side button started getting a bit mushy, but honestly it held up well. The cable is super light with a bungie it basically felt wireless. For the price, it’s great value and I’d definitely recommend it.

Amazing, comfortable and lightweight

I bought this to replace a Logitech g402 mouse and this was so much lighter and fit my hand much better too. You can adjust the rgb settings to whatever effect you want, brightness or turn them off entirely using the software. Cable is long and braided. Has been great for gaming and general productivity use. The software lets you create macros and assign them to any of the buttons too like auto clickers etc. great mouse overall and no issues at all in the time I’ve had it. It can collect some dirt and dust in the holes though as it’s all open
