Our Verdict

GLORIOUS Model D

SteelSeries Prime Mini Wireless

The GLORIOUS Model D is an excellent wired ultra-lightweight gaming mouse, while the SteelSeries Prime Mini Wireless is an impressive wireless ultra-lightweight gaming mouse. The GLORIOUS is a bit lighter and has lower click latency. On the other hand, the SteelSeries has a wider CPI range and lower lift-off distance. It also has customization software compatible with Windows and macOS, while the GLORIOUS software is only compatible with Windows. Both mice have right-handed shapes suitable for all grip types and most hand sizes, but the GLORIOUS is better-suited for larger hands, while the SteelSeries is more accommodating for smaller hands.
