As the name already suggests, the ambidextrous Model O 2 Mini Wireless is a smaller Model O 2 Wireless. Equipped with the BAMF 2.0 sensor, Glorious mechanical switches for the main buttons, and extensive RGB lighting, the 57 g Model O 2 Mini Wireless lasts up to 110 hours in 2.4 GHz wireless, and almost twice as long using Bluetooth.

Have seen quite a few complaints about Glorious in terms of durability, after sales service and overall quality compared to competitors.
 
Unironically asking for a cool 100 for this in the current market is… bold, to say the least.
 
I try to keep on reusing existing mice. Cleaning and repairing. 15 years ago there was a broken cable or such.

I had so many mice which could not be used because those injection molding parts did not work properly anymore on the upper shell. In my point of view those plastics work like a hidden spring which does not work after a certain amount of time or usage.

this looks like the same "quality" I see on the freebie mouses in hp microtowers or asus small formfactor computers. Purely trash.
Same also where the screws are mounted into. Very slim materials where the screw goes into.

-- 2 years guarantee is a joke. My mice usually die around 15 to 45 months average. REgardless of brand Razer, Logitech, Sharkoon, HP, ASUS, E-BLUE, to name a few mouse brands I had and remember
 
I actually have this mouse... It fits in my hand perfectly and I honestly can't really tell the difference between wired and wireless modes in terms of tracking..

Overall I hate the fact that the battery in this thing is so tiny.. Have to charge it every night. On top of that it's developed double clicking issues and has a very strange issue were if you hold down the caps lock key while it's in wired mode and attempt to use the mouse in any way shape or form it will disconnect and reconnect constantly.. I've used caps locks for nearly my entire life for push to talk and it's infuriating that it does that especially if I'm charging the mouse while trying to game with friends... It's gotten me killed more times than I'd like to admit. Of course glorious won't even acknowledge that it's a bug..

You are definitely a Zowie/Vaxee potential client then. I don’t think there are more overbuilt tank-like mice out there.
 
kind of weird you don't compare it's size to the the most widely used mouse out there. nothing about this mouse is worth $100. glorious products are garbage.

have been using the same gpx since it's release and i game 8+ hours a day and maybe work 4-6 with the same mouse. i'd honestly question if i was the problem if i was going through mice on a yearly basis.
 
How have they still not fixed the idle delay?

I have a Model O wireless. I had updated to Glorious Core 2, but had to roll back to version 1 as 2 was so bad. I couldn’t even set a specific DPI!

The product management blunders of Glorious have been something to behold.
 
I liked the Model O I had but for this; I couldn't get used to their software and for some reason, the right mouse button squeaked every time I clicked the button after weeks of use. When you look deeper, you find others had the same issues.

Won't go out of my comfort zone anytime soon, I will stick with my Razer DeathAdder for now. I just wish they would make a Mamba 2012 Refresh, damn, I loved that mouse, fitted my hand like a glove, it just needs to be lighter, use the new Optical Switches and sensors, I would snag that beauty up in a Nanosecond.
