Our Verdict

GLORIOUS Model D

SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless (2022)

The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless (2022) and the GLORIOUS Model D are both ultra-light gaming mice with honeycomb shells. The GLORIOUS is a wired-only model with a right-handed design that feels more comfortable than the SteelSeries. It has a more consistent sensor and slightly better click latency. On the other hand, the SteelSeries feels better-built, has an ambidextrous design, and connects wirelessly via Bluetooth or its USB receiver. It has a wider CPI range and a lower lift-off distance. Also, its software is available on both Windows and macOS, while the GLORIOUS software is only available on Windows.
