Didn't the model o just copy all of the good things from other mice and put it into one? It's not original, but the mouse is good.

links, pictures, sources, etc....
Model O, the mouse by glorious.
Techsource reviewed it, here is the link. It's a really and I mean really cool mouse, but they just copied ideas (fine by me, but the don't deserve the innovation award).

It's all in the review, but the main innovation was merging all the fantastic features together—and this is what no manufacturers did before, and I can wholeheartedly can call this an innovation. You might have seen most of these things, but you haven't seen an ultra-lightweight, full RGB gaming mouse with a high-end sensor, and objectively perfect misc specs.

I know, but it's just copying the other ideas, without having to go through something called failure. It's like cheating on a exam. You don't deserve it, but you got it.

All's fair in love and... capitalism, I guess. My point being, it doens't matter if they "cheated" they got it all the same because the product is good.

I can see both sides really.
