The GLORIOUS Model D- is an amazing ultra-light gaming mouse with an ergonomic shape that's very comfortable to use for those with small hands. It's smaller and lighter than the GLORIOUS Model D but offers the same features. It has a very wide CPI range that you can adjust in fairly small steps, and there's minimal CPI variation. It feels fairly well-built, but the body flexes easily and the side buttons feel mushy. However, the PFTE feet and the cable are both outstanding, making it very easy to glide around on your desk. The dedicated software allows you to reprogram any button and set RGB customization, but it's only available on Windows.
