Reviews last updated: May 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Glorious Model O 2

  • Ultralight weight (starting at ~59g for the standard and Pro models)
  • Outstanding sensor performance with the BAMF 2.0 (up to 26,000 DPI)
  • Very low click latency and responsive feel for competitive FPS gaming
  • Excellent gliding experience due to high-quality 100% PTFE feet
  • Improved build quality and sturdiness compared to the original Model O
  • Versatile ambidextrous shape comfortable for claw, fingertip, and palm grips
  • Vibrant yet refined RGB lighting that is less 'tacky' than previous versions
  • Significantly improved battery life on wireless models (up to 210 hours on Bluetooth)

What we don't like about Glorious Model O 2

  • Divisive perforated (hole) design which can trap dirt and grime
  • Lack of internal storage for the USB wireless dongle
  • Glorious CORE companion software is currently Windows-only
  • Plastic shell can feel 'cheap' or 'plasticky' compared to more premium rivals
  • Occasional reports of shell creaking or button pre-travel on some units
  • No dedicated left-handed version (lacks side buttons on the right)
  • Proprietary USB-C cable design can be restrictive when plugging in quickly
  • Pricing is considered high compared to competitors offering similar specs for less

Verdict

The Glorious Model O 2 is an ultralight ambidextrous gaming mouse featuring a redesigned perforated shell that weighs 59g (wired) or 68g (wireless). It is equipped with the BAMF 2.0 optical sensor offering up to 26,000 DPI, 650 IPS tracking, and 50G acceleration, paired with Glorious mechanical switches rated for 80 million clicks. Main characteristics include its right-handed symmetrical shape optimized for claw and fingertip grips, triple-mode connectivity (2.4GHz, Bluetooth 5.2, and wired) for the wireless version, and vibrant customizable RGB lighting. Key pros are its exceptional glide provided by 100% pure PTFE G-Skates, high tracking accuracy, and an impressive battery life of up to 210 hours on Bluetooth. However, notable cons include a lack of onboard storage for the wireless dongle, Windows-exclusive configuration software, and reported build quality issues such as shell creaking or button pre-travel.
