Our Verdict

GLORIOUS Model O

SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless

The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless and the GLORIOUS Model O are very similar mice, as they're both ultra-light mice with a honeycomb body and an ambidextrous shape. However, the SteelSeries is better overall, mainly due to its wireless connectivity. This means you don't have to deal with cable drag, and you can connect it with two devices simultaneously. It's just as light as the GLORIOUS, and it has more programmable inputs because it lets you reprogram the wheel's up-and-down scroll. That said, the GLORIOUS feels better built, and it has higher-quality feet that provide a smoother glide. The GLORIOUS also has a longer body, making it more suitable for large hands using a palm grip.
