Our Verdict

GLORIOUS Model D

Swiftpoint Z

The GLORIOUS Model D is an excellent ultra-lightweight gaming mouse, while the Swiftpoint Z is a good, multi-genre gaming mouse. The GLORIOUS is much more lightweight and has a more flexible cable. It also has better quality mouse feet that glide more smoothly and lower click latency. On the other hand, the Swiftpoint Z feels sturdier and has seven more buttons. Additionally, it has pressure-sensitive and tilt inputs, an OLED screen, haptic feedback, and a thumb and pinky rest. Performance-wise, it also has a lower minimum CPI and a more consistent sensor.
