Our Verdict

Kensington Orbit Fusion Wireless Trackball

GLORIOUS Model O-

The GLORIOUS Model O- is an excellent wired gaming mouse, while the Kensington Orbit Fusion Wireless Trackball is a good stationary trackball mouse designed with office work in mind. The GLORIOUS is much more lightweight and feels sturdier. It also has much lower click latency, a higher maximum polling rate, and a wider CPI range. On the other hand, the Kensington connects wirelessly with its USB receiver and has a more ergonomic shape with a thumb and pinky rest. It also has three additional side buttons and has a scroll ring around the trackball instead of a more conventional scroll wheel.
