Glorious really has gone downhill these past couple years. I bought a GMMK Pro a couple years ago to support their scrappiness in trying to make the custom keyboard space more accessible and loved it. Fast forward 2-3 years and we now have mouse and switch group buys, them ripping off keycap colorwaves and claiming it's an original design, and their egregiously priced GMMK Pro numpad extension. It's really like watching them become the villain they swore to destroy...

Amazing stuff with the rattle test, its like each color comes with its own unique internal rattly sound.

I thank Glorious for getting me interested in custom peripherals back when they were still a small company that focused on quality products. But I wouldn't dare buy anything from them these days due to the massive drop in quality and huge increase in prices. And I say that as the owner of many Glorious products from their early days, including the original Model O and O-.

Absolute chad for giving us the audio warning after the sound test

[ioannisnavrozidis]

If reviewer copies have issues imagine the ones that are being sent to buyers...

Seems to be a trend with QC issues with the first and second batches when it comes to mice (mostly Glorious lately) Im personally waiting for the ninjutso sora but it would probably have qc issues on launch so thank you to all the beta testers in advance. Youre doing gods work for us gamers.

I have been using it for 6 months for productivity and this is THE endgame mouse. The material, scoll wheel, clicks and pointer sensitivity, everything on point. Finally I dissipated my suspicion that the flaw is in me with any other mice. I bought yellow and red, waiting for the blue to drop in price too. I use left hand, it's actually no problem to use the side buttons with my ring finger. The only issue might be the lack of bluetooth, but buy a quality usb hub if you are short of ports and it's fixed. Glorious, this is glorious indeed 😃

That line about either dying a hero or living long enough to see yourself become the villain comes to mind

[leadguitaristtdtw]

2:10 I couldn't help but notice the tiny piece of floating lint or hair that goes over the yellow mouse scroll wheel.

[NYVice]

Wow, the fact that each mouse had its own unique QC issue lol. I have never purchased a Glorious mouse and I don't see that changing any time soon.

[meowelas]

Frank, even if there are a handful of other mouse reviewers I have more faith in, I still find the footage in your videos to be S++. Seeing textures and seams is actually really important as a buyer.

[lacayoj]

dude that camera of yours is freaking crispy. Sharp as heck.

[RobsCorner]

I get the hate for the forge process but I got my model O pro in and have had zero issues. Now am I blown away by the mouse...not at all but I guess I got lucky with the QC stuff

[Kandorr]

Appreciate the thorough review, Frank. Nice job.

[aelaan]

Thanks for pointing out the flaws and the pros. QC does seem to be a bit of a problem, or maybe they need to look at the materials used to close the shell.

[keya]

I HAVE WAITED FOR THIS FOREVER FRANK!!!!

[MrDutche]

That rattling is probably the battery coming loose. Actually a very common issue with the g pro x superlight too. Probably going to RMA mine for it here soon.

[dongkunlee]

literally every glorious product ive gotten had a squeak in the scroll wheel, and i had to rma them probably 5 times before switching to the superlight which ive had for a little over a year now

[robinhubregtse]

You should try out the Ninjutso Sora when it comes out, it will blow your mind. It has no holes in the shell and weights just 43 grams!

I got the OG Model O wireless because I had heard a few bad things about the pro qc, and so far I'm glad I did lol. Only been a few days but it's flawless so far, no issues in the slightest. Sucks to see they're going the way of Finalmouse quality wise though :/
(I also just like the honeycomb on the palm it grips my hand better than anything else, and if I want to make it lighter I can mod it)
