Popular Mouse Comparisons
The GLORIOUS Model O Minus Wireless is an excellent ultra-lightweight gaming mouse. It's the wireless version of the GLORIOUS Model O-, which itself is a scaled-down version of the original GLORIOUS Model O for those with smaller hands or for those who prefer a smaller-sized mouse. This mouse is nearly identical to its wired counterpart, but it doesn't have any honeycomb cutouts on the L/R click buttons. Additionally, while the wired version was available in either matte or glossy finishes, this mouse is only available with a matte, plastic finish. Impressively, despite having fewer honeycomb cutouts in the body and adding wireless connectivity, this mouse is only 5g heavier than the wired Model O-, making it a tempting proposition for those looking to make the jump to wireless.
