Everyone is right away buying the Model O Wireless mouse because of all the super-ultra-smooth features, including RGB. That’s the reason, for today, we picked up this particular mouse, so we can shed light on the insides and outsides of it. So, let’s begin the Glorious Model O Wireless Review without any further ado.

Keeping these features in mind:

1. Light-Weighted
2. RGB-induced lightning
3. Portable
4. Withstanding Grip
5. Best for FPS games
6. Perfect for Office usage

I would definitely give this mouse a 9.2 out of 10. It’s not because I’m being biased or forced to do so. The Glorious O Wireless mouse deserves it: every ounce of it. Considering all the recently published reviews (On Reddit), we can safely and with confidence say that there’s no better mouse than this if you are tight on budget and need something extraordinary.

Build Features of the Model O Wireless Mouse

This section of the article will extensively focus on the Glorious Model O mouse’s build features and will bring into your kind notice what to expect on arrival.

Expectations on arrival

Don’t we all bite our nails knowing that the cables can get damaged because of the weird packaging? But fear not! Glorious is known for its wonderful packaging criterion, which puts the buyer at ease.

All the cables are decently wrapped into each other with crocodile pins. To top it off, there’s a bubble wrap too, which reduces the impact damage on the packaging itself. But do you know what’s surprising? This is not even a cable mouse. It’s an affordable Bluetooth one, and still, the packaging is outstanding.

With the package, you get hold of all sorts of manuals and value-added accessories that might aid you in future usage.

Battery-Life of Glorious O mouse

When you have a wireless gaming mouse, it all boils down to its battery life. Well, Glorious mice are known for their durability and extended battery lives, and this particular model is no different. 

For what it is worth, gamers don’t like it if their mouse dies on them, especially when they have intense gaming sessions.

Surprisingly, in the manuals, Model O wireless mouses take on a number that is just perfectly splendid. The battery life with the RGB turned off gives you a number that is greater than 70 hours. Not to mention, you can squeeze the number of hours on the battery if you are using your mouse anywhere in the range of 500hz to 1000hz polling rate.

Weight of Glorious O Wireless mouse

I personally prefer having a light-weighted mouse, because they really come in handy when you are forced to travel from one place to another. 

Hasn’t Glorious O making our lives easier for the past couple of years? To our surprise, The Glorious Model O wireless mouse is nothing but shy of 1 gram to 70. Yes, it nearly weighs around 69 grams, which is perfect for putting the mouse in your pocket.

I know you must be wondering, how on Earth can someone solder components with that weight. Today, anything is possible considering how technology is evolving, and Glorious is definitely taking advantage of it.

Sensors of Model O mouse

Let me warn you before you skim through this section because it’s a little complicated. If you don’t have any IT background, try to read this session maybe twice or thrice to understand how sensors work in this particular mouse.

To begin with, Glorious started their proprietary sensors, which are only available to Glorious. In other words, they are not using any sort of third-party sensors on the mouse. This specific sensor is called the BAMF sensor and is known for its splendid performance.

For what it’s worth, the mouse makes use of 2.4 GHz of connection, with a maxed-out DPI of 19000. Imagine having that number on your mouse that doesn’t even cost you a lot of bucks.

Coming back to the topic, the DPI allows you to have a smooth and faster drag along with the screen. Basically, if the sensor is decent enough, you will not be beholding any input lag from the mouse (the trailing cursor). 

Not to forget, you can tune-up or tune down the DPI range with twice what you had set up for your mouse. In simpler terms, if your current DPI is set to 400, you can change it to 800, then 1600, then 3200, and so on, reaching a maximum of 19000 DPI.

For making the sensors more polished and refined, you need the software (Glorious’ tweaking software) to tune in and out the polling rate. Without the software, you won’t be able to do anything, as far as I know.

Apart from this, you can adjust these incrementing DPI steps’ colors, making them appealing to the eyes. On top of that, you also tweak the LOD, which ranges from 1mm-2mm coupled with debounce rates of 2ms-16ms. I know, too complicated. I would right away suggest you get it because, believe me, it’s a wonderful entry for budget-friendly gamers.

Value-added Cables and extras

I believe there’s no better option than the Glorious Model O Wireless mouse because of all the value-added features that the mouse comes with. For instance, with the packaging, you get hold of a dedicated USB Type-A and Type-C cable, if in case, you need to use the mouse with wires. 

Also, the length of the cable is around 2m, so you are in good hands if the system is laying around a bit further.

Not to mention, you also get a hold of a charging USB cable, the connector for powering up your wireless mouse. Definitely, if you want to use the mouse, you would need to charge the batteries.

Apart from this, the mouse also slips in a wonderful Feet system, which is made up of white-dyed pure PTEE (Teflon). It’s like a wounded mesh that aids your mouse to remain below the temperature thresholds. It’s nothing but a breathable mesh for your mouse.

Buttons and Scroll Wheel

Without buttons and a scroll wheel, the mouse isn’t a mouse, is it? Just joking. Anyhow, the Glorious ensured that the mouse incorporates sustainable buttons and a scroll wheel because, for the majority of times, these scroll wheels die out. 

Not to mention, the same happens with the buttons too. For what it’s worth, the Glorious Model O mouse makes use of Solid Omron D2FC-F-7N (20m) switched, which makes the user feel at ease while clicking.

On top of that, the tactile feedback is amazing. You really don’t need to push more than a couple of millimeters, I believe, to reach the actuation point. Moreover, the buttons are glossy, and the grip itself is just mind-blowing. 

Basically, with that shape and coating, you get to have a firm grip over the mouse, like a claw shape, assisting you wonderfully in games like Warzone and Apex Legends.

Build Quality

At times, users are left baffled and confused when it comes to disassembling and reassembling the parts. Let’s assume you encountered an issue with the mouse. 

Now, you want to dismantle it to fix the issue. Surprisingly, Glorious Model O has a solution for that as well. It comes with inbuilt screws that are easy to behold. All you have to do is unmount them, and the mesh will pop out.

All you have to do is, remove the two rear skates and the several ribbon cables overlapping each other. After that, you are good to go.

When you are done fixing it, simply assemble all the parts together, and that’s all. Easy, isn’t it?

Gaming Experience

As far as the gaming experience is concerned, the Model O mouse turns out to be the best candidate for FPS games. The recently published reviews speak highly of the enhanced flexibility of the mouse when translating it on the mouse pad. 

On top of that, the DPI is customizable — giving you enough room for decreasing and increasing the DPI rate. To top it off, you can play for hours and hours without your mouse budging or giving away to exhaustion.

Well, it all boils down to a single choice, and it’s definitely in your favor. People just dismiss the idea of having a brand that’s alien to them. Believe me, Glorious has been doing so much better, and you should put your trust in them. 

The above-mentioned model is the epitome of perfection at such a decent and cheap rate. What else one wants?
