The GLORIOUS Model D Wireless is an ultra-lightweight wireless gaming mouse with honeycomb cutouts on its palm rest and underside.

Popular Mouse Comparisons
The GLORIOUS Model D Wireless is an excellent ultra-lightweight gaming mouse. It shares the same ergonomic, right-handed shape as its wired version, the GLORIOUS Model D, which contrasts with the original GLORIOUS Model O and its wireless version, which have ambidextrous symmetrical shapes. Compared to its wired version, this mouse has a proprietary BAMF sensor made in collaboration with PixArt, which offers a higher maximum CPI and a CPI you can adjust more precisely. It also has new left and right-click button switches made in partnership with Kailh, rated for 80 million clicks or four times as many as the Omron switches in the wired version. Altogether, this is a great choice if you're a fan of the wired Model D or right-handed, lightweight mice more generally, as it makes several notable improvements to the original while adding wireless connectivity and maintaining virtually the same weight.
