Our Verdict

GLORIOUS Model D

GLORIOUS Model D-

The GLORIOUS Model D- is slightly better for ultra-light gaming than the GLORIOUS Model D because it's lighter. The Minus is smaller and better suited for those with small hands, while the Model D is aimed at those with larger hands. Besides that, both mice have the same performance.
