  • Already have superlight but still so tempted…

    • Are these any good? Haven't been able to find many reviews from my usual trusted sources..

      • Honestly not sure, haven’t followed in a long time.

        But turns out I have the g pro mouse and not the superlight. Same same but older.

        Considering newer and hopefully slightly better, and different more ergonomic shape, I pulled the trigger on model D 2 pro.

        We shall see I guess…

        They're quite good. I've used Glorious mice, Delux Mice, Attack Shark mice, Logitech mice, pretty much any brand I've used. I started getting into mice with a Glorious Model D and I've had this specific mouse too, but I ended up selling it for a Delux M900 Pro (similar shape) which was cheaper (till now) and comes in White (main reason I switched), as well as 6000 Hz wireless polling (on average but it can reach 8000 Hz as a high point though).

        Glorious mice were basically a meme in the enthusiast mice sphere since like 2019 (known for a while as overpriced and catering to casuals) and they weren't really a serious brand till they brought out these Model D 2 Pro and Model O 2 Pro mice last year for the enthusiast crowd. The Model D 2 Pro here is a 1000 Hz variant, there's also a 4000 Hz wireless/8000 Hz wired variant for $89 on PCCG. The Model D 2 Pro is essentially a Zowie EC2 or Razer Deathadder alternative, it's got a decent coating, good shape for right handed ambi users and generally good performance (was top of the line last year), decent battery too unlike previous Glorious wireless mice. Biggest complaint I can give is that it feels a bit cheap compared to Deathadder V3, but a solid and cheap alternative now with okay-ish QC. There are white variants of these coming, Glorious has teased them on their website and such, so I assume PCCG will stock them eventually.

        In summary you can't really go wrong if you're holding out for a Deathadder V3 Pro, go out and get one of these at this price, you get local warranty. Running at 4000Hz polling isn't really needed for competitive gaming and will need to be charged more often. At $59 I can recommend these, thats pretty cheap, these are a chuck job if anything goes wrong out of the warranty and you buy a new one. To put this into perspective you can buy like 3 of these for the price of one Deathadder V3 Pro and if you wanted a Deathadder V3 the wired version they go for like $79, which will perform better but if you're like me and you love wireless then get this. Some people recommend the Attack Shark R1 as a cheap alternative to these ($28) with a similar shape, but with a worse sensor and terrible QC/firmware from Attack Shark (the unit I got is defective and the wireless doesn't work where the mouse skips around) I cannot recommend the R1 from Attack Shark personally.

        As for my Delux M900 Pro, they're like $67 on AliExpress, very good mouse and great bang for buck alternative to a Deathadder, but when I switched the Model D 2 was like a $140 mouse. But considering this is cheaper and from a local store, I'd get the Glorious over that unless you really want a certain colour like me and higher polling. If you want a very, very good alternative with a similar shape to either of these that's a bit more pricey but is basically Razer quality at a cheaper price, buy the ATK Z1 Ultra on AliExpress, $100-ish dollars for a top sensor, amazing coating, top of the line battery life and software, 8000 Hz wireless polling if you want it and at a very cheap price. Even the ATK Z1 Pro Max is outstanding at $92, it just uses the regular 3950 sensor not the 3950 Ultra like the Z1 Ultra does, which has higher DPI options which you probably won't need.

        Hope that answers your question.

        TL;DR: Good for this price, was a terrible deal at $160 like it was at launch. Cheaper than some alternatives and decent quality. Can't really go wrong at $59. White units are on the way too. If you want something better with a similar shape for 80% more, buy ATK Z1 on AliExpress.

  • Tempted to try it out for $59 but i do enjoy my basilisk ultimate. Probably shouldn't!

  • Yeah, I vote recent cheap 3395/3950 mice.
