Our Verdict

Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED

GLORIOUS Model D

The GLORIOUS Model D and the Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED are both gaming mice. The GLORIOUS is right-handed and wired, while the Logitech has an ambidextrous shape and connects wirelessly with its USB receiver. The GLORIOUS weighs significantly less than the Logitech. It also has feet that glide much more smoothly on mousepads and desks. On the other hand, the Logitech feels sturdier and has a slightly lower minimum CPI. It also has a lower lift-off distance, and you can set its CPI more precisely by increments of 50. Also, it has software compatible with Windows and macOS, while the GLORIOUS software is only compatible with Windows.
