Verdict

The Glorious Model I 2 is a right-handed ergonomic gaming mouse featuring a dedicated thumb rest and an ultralight design weighing 75g (Wireless) or 66g (Wired). It is equipped with the high-performance BAMF 2.0 optical sensor offering up to 26,000 DPI, 650 IPS tracking speed, and 50G acceleration, paired with Glorious switches rated for 80 million clicks. Key characteristics include 9 programmable buttons, two of which are swappable magnetic side buttons for custom tactile preferences, and a hybrid wireless system providing up to 110 hours on 2.4GHz or 210 hours on Bluetooth 5.2 LE (with RGB off). Main pros are its class-leading lightweight frame for its shape, versatile button modularity, and smooth glide on 100% PTFE feet; however, notable cons include reported inconsistent wireless click latency in competitive scenarios, relatively high battery drain when RGB is active, and a lack of advanced features like a free-scrolling wheel.
