Our Verdict

GLORIOUS Model D-

GLORIOUS Model I

The GLORIOUS Model D- and the GLORIOUS Model I are lightweight, wired-only gaming mice. Both mice have a right-handed slant, but the Model I has more buttons on its left side, while the Model D- is slightly smaller so it's better suited for smaller hands. However, the Model I feels much more solidly built than the Model D-.
