Our Verdict

ASUS ROG Keris Wireless

ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless

The ASUS ROG Keris Wireless and the ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless are comparable wireless gaming mice. The Keris Wireless is a bit lighter, and it has smoother-gliding mouse feet. Also, it has slightly lower click latency, but the difference may not be noticeable to most people. On the other hand, the Gladius III Wireless has a dedicated CPI-switching button below its scroll wheel. Also, it comes with a USB receiver extender, and it has a lower lift-off distance, a wider CPI range, and a more precisely adjustable CPI.
